5 marijuana YouTube channels to keep you entertained and informed

Marijuana is a growing industry, so there is a lot of content on the internet. Cannabis enthusiasts have come up with websites, Instagram pages, and Twitter accounts, all of which are looking for new and creative ways to engage with marijuana. YouTube is a whole different matter.

As a platform for monetization, YouTube is a challenge for many different YouTubers. In order to develop a fan base and make a profit, YouTubers need to find ways to avoid triggering the website’s filters designed to keep harmful content off the web.

YouTube has been reported for blocking content from LGBTQ creators and other topics that may be deemed inappropriate. When it comes to weed, the channels out there face a complex battle against censors and viewers who consider their content to be inappropriate.
