The magazine is named after the abbreviation for milligram, the metric used to measure the THC (psychoactive component) and CBD (non-psychoactive component) in cannabis products.[3]

Regular sections include Harvest (news and statistics), Corner Office, Top Shelf (dispensaries), and Products. Monthly features cover cannabis-industry entrepreneurs, industry activists, and special reports on topics including retailing and branding, manufacturing, and packaging. The magazine also provides commentary on legal and social issues impacting the cannabis industry,[4] from contributors like Ricardo Baca, who writes a monthly column.

It was founded by Darren Roberts, CEO of CANN Media Group LLC, in 2015.[4] In October 2018, the publication released its first supplemental issue on "Soil & Nutrients."
