Critical reception
editCritics of the book said it is "beautifully designed"[3] and a "smartly written pot primer",[4] but misses some information like quick decarboxylation of cannabis in a home oven.[5] One critic said the book was "testament to the progress, triumph and privilege of legalized recreational marijuana in the author's state" of Washington.[2]
