I had been under the impression that we are now in the era of gathering picks and shovels when it comes to the smart direction legislators are heading about cannabis. But in a recent chat with Derek Peterson, I became convinced we are much further along. Peterson is CEO of Terra Tech Corporation, which is making huge strides in the burgeoning cannabis market. He asserts that the real era of picks and shovels was in the black market days of cannabis, “but now we are in a gravitational shift to a regulated market.” He points to the development of brands in the cannabis market (such as Whoopi Goldberg and Jane West and his company’s own IVXX brand) as signaling a huge shift in the thinking of those investing in the cannabis market.
