GOOD Morning ERBB, Great News from American Green
American Green Signs Something Chocolate Exclusive for ZaZZZ
[Tempe, AZ – September 10, 2015 - American Green, Inc. (OTC Pink: ERBB) announced today that as part of its redesign of ZaZZZ marketing and continued effort to evaluate exclusive premium products such as Something Chocolate of Los Angeles for sale in ZaZZZ machines. (www.facebook.com/pages/Something-Chocolate/954432217916720?sk=timeline). This product line, together with several others being evaluated in different states, is the beginning of the ZaZZZ verified vending process becoming a value-add revenue stream for dispensaries.
“Finding great products is not a challenge, especially in California. But finding a professional group like Something Chocolate who starts with a great product where taste is paramount...now, that’s different and very rare. We’re looking for products and methods whose excellence can be duplicated in other states,” says Steph Shearin, American Green president. “These amazing music-inspired chocolates will be available in ZaZZZ at Exhale in Los Angeles next week along with other planned locations. The team from Something Chocolate will be with American Green at the Cannabis World Congress & Business Expo in LA next week.”
“Placing our chocolates in ZaZZZ makes sense because each unit is temperature controlled which ensures freshness of our fine Belgian chocolates,” said Mitchell Koulouris, CEO of Something Chocolate. “Because our agreement is exclusive, customers will be able to find and easily purchase Something Chocolate everywhere a ZaZZZ unit is installed. Taste matters to consumers and Something Chocolate is a superior high-end truffle that tastes great, packs a punch and is priced appropriately.”
“I have been active in the music industry for years and I love chocolate and Something Chocolate brings together my two passions,” added Koulouris. “Each of our truffle assortments is musically themed and each chocolate is named after and inspired by a song. I ask myself, ‘What would that song taste like?’ and make every effort to make the taste of the chocolate capture the feeling and essence of the song. Also included in each package are “Liner Notes” featuring trivia and facts about the artists and songs that inspire our flavors as well as a Flavor Map and Sticker.”

American Green Enters Arizona Medical Marijuana Market
Executes Binding LOA with Natural Herbal Remedies
[Tempe, AZ – September 8, 2015 - American Green, Inc. (OTC Pink: ERBB) announced today that as part of its focus on being an active participant in taking American Green brands to market around the country, it has entered into a binding Letter of Agreement to form a Joint Venture with Natural Herbal Remedies, an Arizona licensed dispensary of medical marijuana products. (www.naturalherbalremediesinc.org/)
“We have been working with NHR for about a year, selling them our CBD isolate for custom formulations developed by this exciting company. The opportunity occurred for us to deepen our relationship and form a joint venture to manage a dispensary and harvest facility in Arizona,” stated Steph Shearin, American Green president. “We will help NHR produce American Green products as well as assist in the expansion of NHR’s existing line of formulations called Trew Balance.” (www.trewbalance.org/#!home/mainPage)
“In the last year, we looked at numerous potential partners to expand our opportunities in Arizona. In the end, American Green won our hearts and we’re excited to develop our partnership,” said Sheelah Golliglee, a Natural Herbal Remedies partner. We have been very successful working with several patients at Childrens Hospitals in Phoenix - providing custom formulations under the direction of their care givers. “Baby Ethan” (http://www.trewbalance.org/#!The-Story-of-The-Garden-of-Ethan/c1dwi/1) is a wonderful example of thinking outside the traditional regimen. Ethan, like many others with seizure-related illness, has benefitted from medical marijuana.” For more information regarding severe diagnoses such as cancer and epilepsy please visit trewbalance.org for proprietary formulations.
The parties will form American Green - Arizona for the purpose of providing services to NHR. NHR will manufacture American Green medical marijuana products consistent in nature and quality to those coming soon from Herbal Elements in Colorado and from Calyptic in Oregon.
Mr. Shearin concludes, “The quest has just begun. American Green has set its sights on becoming the brand of choice for patients and consumers in search of quality medicine and recreational products across the United States - from ‘Seed to Shining Seed.’ Our intentions could not be made more clear - ERBB is in the pot business, to the extent regulations currently permit us, and we intend to become nationally renowned for our brands and messaging.

ERBB stock Wasting no Time, Stock EXPLODES for 73% Gains today Alone, DiamondEye Calls for .026 cents ERBB
Posted on August 27, 2015 by stockmarketmonitors
Thursday morning became an amazing day for ERBB shareholders as the stock exploded to the upside raking in 73% to hit levels of .0039. As the stock nears half a penny DiamondEye has called for .026 cents on this beast. As momentum and curiousity picks up, expect this stock to hit the dollar range very soon.
Thats your mid market update. Keep an eye on CBIS as well.

Good Morning ERBB
ERBB and CBIS on Marijuana Stock Talk Watch as DiamondEye Calls for LARGE IMMINENT ERBB/CBIS Gains
Today was another positive day. But the day was way beyond positive for the World-Renowned American Green, Inc. or more famously as we know it, ERBB stock, as shares flew up over 105% at one point tagging .0045 but asking .0046. The stock has shown history of this in the past when it went down to bleakly low levels only to spring up to a .20 cent rally in the beginning of 2014. Our time has come says DiamondEye. The perfect storm is forming. And investors are witnessing it as they did today, yet again, on another Major Marijuana Stock which has now retraced marking on its 5-year chart. ERBB is officially ON THE MOVE UP! The stock has a history and pattern of feverishly shooting to massively high levels. But there can be some lulls for traders in between the bull rushes. However, when the bull rushes, this stock can SERIOUSLY SPIKE. We suggest holding on for as long as you can during the rallies as they tend to always go way past where you even thought the furthest rally would go. And with ERBB’s pent up energy, expect this one to make a loud BOOM. We’re calling for ERBB to reach .25 cents rather soon. After we pass the .01 mark we should be on our way to retracing the dime level. Once past the dime, it’s no mans land and many will only then be looking for the dollar which was all along bound to come.
CBIS is another one that had a great performance day today closing the day out just under .04 cents. When CBIS busts through the mysterious .04 (pure psychological) level, the stock has no where but to shoot up higher. Investors and traders aren’t ready for the push, but DiamondEye is warning traders and investors to suit up, because CBIS is ripe to spike to levels of .10 like NOW.
Watch for both of these stocks in the Pre-Market for some action before tomorrow’s big game. Going into the weekend of a seriously questionable week, many will likely be closing a lot of positions on the major Blue Chip and higher indice stocks. Penny Stocks and especially Hot Penny Stocks like these, are known to open way stronger after holding through the weekend. Especially when coming into an even weaker Monday morning. More importantly, Marijuana has been getting increasingly hot over the past week or two, oddly enough just as the overall global markets are beginning to crash. It’s as if smart money is looking for a home, and marijuana is an extremely welcoming and lucrative investment at these price levels. And many are quickly realizing that.
SMM and DiamondEye urge investors to keep watching ERBB, CBIS, MJMJ, HEMPD/HEMP, MJNA, and VPOR, VRCI, MJNA, MDCN, FWDG/FUTL.

There are already beer vending machines on the market, You seeing any at any major sports event ? The Zazzz is a Mj/Hemp infused and Mj products vending machine, It is wrapped with MJ leaves, They would have to completely change their approach for Beer and they would have to inquire licenses to sell alcohol . No ones going to let any MJ advertisement happen where kids are at any sports event. I disagree about SS stealing, They have a lot going on and are making money. I think many here expected to make last years bank in a short time (Like me) but last year was all hype. Once our crappy government reclassifies Mj, ERBB will be one of the better to be in.

Good Morning DSCR... Industrial hemp backers say crop has economic benefit.
Lancaster County businessman Shawn Patrick House wants to believe the latest legislative effort to legalize hemp farming in Pennsylvania will succeed.
But he's been fighting long enough to know it's probably a long shot. Under Senate Bill 50 — introduced by Sens. Judy Schwank (D-Berks) and Mike Folmer (R-Lebanon) — the cultivation and processing of industrial hemp would be allowed as part of a research program at a college or university.
“It is just an opportunity for our farmers to keep their land and to grow a profitable crop,” said House, who produces hemp-based products.
The potential profits are significant.
Canadian farmers are reporting net profits of $200 to $250 per acre of hemp, the Agricultural Marketing Resource Board reported. U.S. Department of Agriculture data puts 2014 profits from an acre of corn or soybeans at $365 and $288, respectively.
An Alberta Agriculture and Rural Development report estimates gross revenue for Canadian hemp seed production between $30.75 million and $34 million. In 2010, exports of Canadian hemp seed and hemp products were valued at more than $10 million.
The obvious hurdle is perception, of course. Hemp is the distant sister of cannabis, although supporters say hemp has none of marijuana's mind-altering qualities.
“Industrial hemp does not have a psychoactive effect. The THC level is less than 0.03 percent,” Folmer said. “Misconceptions are withholding Pennsylvania from an opportunity for our agricultural and business industries to thrive.”
Given the legal go-ahead, farmers could benefit from the demand for hemp in products ranging from paper to fuel and clothing to biodegradable plastics, said Schwank, Democratic chairwoman of the Senate Agriculture & Rural Affairs Committee.
The federal 1937 Marijuana Tax Act restricted industrial hemp production. In 1970, the Controlled Substances Act made hemp illegal, although the 2014 Farm Bill loosened production restrictions.
“We need to get on board with this,” Schwank said during a recent conference call. “After all, 200 years ago it was a pretty prominent crop in Pennsylvania.”
Growing business
House began making hemp-enriched cosmetics, such as lotions and soaps, in the late 1990s. In 2005, he incorporated as Lancaster Trading House Inc. His product lines fall under two businesses: Hempzels, which includes soft pretzels, mustard and protein powder; and Natalie's Choice, which sells his granola bars, nut butter and jams.
All are made from hemp, House said. While he doesn't have a physical store, House sells online and at shows such as the Pennsylvania Farm Show. His mustard is on Wegmans' shelves.
“It's slow and steady, and my business continues to expand at a nice pace,” he said. “The soft pretzel is the winner. That's going to be my thing that doubles and triples my sales.”
But House said he is tired of fighting to educate the public and politicians that hemp does not equal marijuana. Experts estimate a person has to smoke about 20 times the amount of hemp in order to reach the high state achieved with cannabis, according to the website Hempethics.com.
As a food product, hemp is touted for its health benefits because it is packed with essential fatty acids and is rich in vitamin E. Supporters say hemp is a more-durable material that makes better clothes.
New Holland Agriculture makes equipment that processes hemp for grain or fiber and sells it to foreign farmers, House said.
“The research has been done for hemp,” he added. “We have equipment manufacturers who are selling equipment to the Europeans and the Canadians.”
'Very enthusiastic'
Steven Auerbach, executive director of the Cannabis Growers Association of Pennsylvania, said the private sector is “very enthusiastic” about the Senate bill.
A lawyer, Auerbach said the bill would regulate hemp as an agricultural commodity, one that has more than 25,000 uses. The limestone-rich soil in which hemp grows best is “found heavily in Lancaster County,” he added.
The bill also would create a five-member Industrial Hemp Licensing Board that would be established within the Department of Agriculture.
According to the National Conference of State Legislatures, 13 states have statutes establishing commercial industrial hemp programs. Another seven states have passed laws establishing industrial hemp programs that are limited to agricultural or academic research purposes.
The history of hemp
The U.S. is the world’s largest consumer of hemp products but is the only major industrialized country that outlaws domestic hemp production.
Hemp has a long history in America, and supporters like to point out that Founding Fathers such as Thomas Jefferson grew the plant. U.S. industrial hemp production peaked in 1943, according to U.S. Department of Agriculture data, with more than 150 million pounds from 146,200 harvested acres.
But production disappeared by the late 1950s as a result of “anti-drug sentiment and competition from synthetic fibers,” according to The Associated Press.
Hemp producers import seeds to produce a variety of goods. Canada is the main supplier of hemp seed products to the United States.
The movement to restore industrial hemp production is moving forward at the federal level as well. Earlier this year, a bipartisan group of lawmakers introduced a bill in the House to put an end to the federal ban on hemp production in the United States.
The Industrial Hemp Farming Act would amend the Controlled Substances Act to exclude industrial hemp from the definition of marijuana and would allow American farmers in any state to grow the crop.

In Surprise Move, Puerto Rico Legalizes Medical Marijuana
In a surprise move, Puerto Rico's Governor Alejandro García Padilla signed an executive order legalizing the use of medical marijuana in the U.S. territory. The order, which was heavily debated in Puerto Rico since 2013 but never put to a public vote, went into immediate effect. The Caribbean island joins 23 other U.S. states in decriminalizing medical marijuana, The Associated Press reports.
SIDEBAR
Willie Nelson Willie Nelson: Why You Should Buy My Weed »
"We're taking a significant step in the area of health that is fundamental to our development and quality of life," García Padilla said in a statement. "I am sure that many patients will receive appropriate treatment that will offer them new hope." The governor added that several studies conducted in the United States demonstrated that cannabis can assist in pain relief from serious diseases.
"These studies support the use of the plant to relieve pain caused by multiple sclerosis, AIDS virus, glaucoma, Alzheimer's disease, migraine, Parkinson's and other diseases that often do not respond to traditional treatments," García Padilla added. "This administration is committed to ensuring the health of all citizens residing in our country. Hence the medicinal use we are adopting is an innovative measure to ensure the welfare and a better quality of life for these patients."
Although Puerto Rico will relax its stance on medical marijuana, it plans on passing a state law that will establish "a distinction between medical and non-medical uses." Even pro-marijuana activists in Puerto Rico were taken aback by the sudden nature of the executive order, as many questions remain over how the plan would be instituted.
For instance, no decision has been made whether Puerto Rico will grow its medical marijuana crop in the country or import the drug. García Padilla said the secretary of the health department would arrive with a more detailed plan of action for medical marijuana within three months.
Puerto Rico becomes the latest U.S. territory or state to either peel back the restrictions on medical marijuana or decriminalize weed entirely. New York is readying its own (albeit restrictive) medical marijuana plan, while voters in Florida resoundingly support a measure to legalize the drug for both medicinal and recreational purposes. The federal government also ended their prohibition of medical marijuana.

Completely agree, Peter was just the CEO not the members running the board, Last years 50mil a year for 5 years with the US Gov. ring a bell.
And there's the scam, If Mike had ANY knowledge of the MJ industry we might had made something of this company, Selling hype And shares is all Mike did on the dream of becoming a MJ company an failed. Or so we been lead to believe. He has NOTHING in the MJ business. A failed web site that he gave shares to people to make it like FB.
GRLF= SCAM
Good morning Mr.Fishmanszmit, Its kinda tough to have faith when Mikes shown to be a complete joke in the mj business. The kind of money he took from us. There's no excuse to have accomplished absolutely nothing.
GRLF= SCAM
Remember Last year when PVEC announced a 50mil a year 5 year contract with the Government. Look how that went. It was to sell shares. As you can see with yesterdays news there also increasing the AS 400mil. IMO... It is what it is.
I agree This is typical for penny stock scam, They used the cash they stole from us to buy this drone company and start the process over again with a new CEO, Who's behind the ownership. Notice how expensive those drones are, RC's are a lot cheaper.
Don't feel bad, I had 10mil shares for a year worth $11,700 certs an didn't get my Certs even after Martha told me twice in a span of 2 months that she was sending them. Had all my personal info, Then when they said to email my info, I did with no reply. Still havn't recieved them. IT was a scam. Anyone throwing money at this next scam will lose it. Their crooks
ANYONE UP FOR A CLASS ACTION LAW SUIT ?
