ive been hearing lots of ins only going for 22-24 right now in norcal, unless its cookies or OG..

That's low, hope they have cheap power... we get that for our greenhouse at the clubs and 28-30 for ins but we only produce a couple dozen ins a year, mostly outdoor. Though next year I am hoping to do a lot of super high quality greenhouse.

quality control in big warehouses is no were near the same as a small 2-10k watt grow.. so to be honest top shelf will always have its place.. the people who go around being brokers.. is who need to get rid of.. honestly. cut them out.. and the grower makes wat he deserves.

and I second that.. next year my outdoor and greenhouse crops are going to be number one priority.. just got in contact with a dude whose been growing outdoors in my area for over 20 years.. so im getting some outdoor strains that do amazing in new England. I cannot wait.

I finally told a guy to pound sand after he kept low balling.........couple weeks later find out he got busted after dealing with shady characters. Save a penny to lose a dollar Karma will catch up with you.

prices are low in the largest city on the 3rd coast.. good cali outdoor going for 2.4-2.8 retail..some of it is actually worth smoking this season. kinda makes this indoor guy nervous..its absolutley flooded

This is my basic impression from having lived in Sonoma County.

Once the newspaper had an article about certain neighborhoods where a majority of houses are used for growing.

Then the question comes up - who are you going to sell to ? - with the economy being on the skids.


On the bright side - it's a great time to be a medical marijuana patient.
:tiphat:

For example, I was looking at dispensaries in Humboldt & Washington State, found this one in Humboldt -

one good thing ive seen is that asian beaster garbage is utterly worthless right now. ive seen some mass produced asian warehouse beaster going for cheaper than good outdoor right now. i dont feel bad at all about them, hopefully the market for that dense hairy odorless beaster garbage will finally close up and they can go back to massage parlors and illegal gambling like they do best. because they cant grow for shit!!

took the words right outta my mouth!

I'm running gorilla glue4. Other guys running it are selling it fast, and at a steep prices. I see guys switching out their whole gardens to gg. It is a monster plant. Vegs real fast. Tastes as good as cookies, but is way stronger. Super encrusted buds, done in 63 days. The leaves smell stronger then my other buds.

going balls to the sticky gooey wall with that glue my damn self.

and i didn't switch my rooms as much as it just took over. the shit practically propagates itself and it veg's almost faster than i want it to. seeing as how i didn't want to throw em away and i sure as shit wasn't gong to whore these genes out like blue dream, i didn't really have much choice in the matter.

shitty iphone pic doesn't do her justice. all the way finished in 55 days, chunky as hell, stank to death with a wollop to match. my coolers runneth over. the few units i pulled down on the tiny initial test run flew out the door @28-30. and that was to friends—very happy, stoned stupid friends.meanwhile i've had to twist arms to get my master and bubba out for 22-24. you do the math.

edit: doc says 63 days. mine were done in 55 @ 1300ppm CO2. YMMV.

oh, and sure, there's a row of forum and animal in there for bragging rights too, but good luck making a fucking living off of that. unless of course you happen to be operating a storefront in garden grove and ass-raping...um, i mean, selling $75 eighths to overprivileged snotnose kids spending their parents' money. i'd rather slap them than even take money from them. the worst are the ones who live in their mothers' basements with a couple of 600 watters and act like they are king shit of cannabis from behind their punk ass screen name. IOW, fuck dealing with the general public. i digress. been sitting on that one for awhile now though.

i hear what you're saying about the beaster mob, and i'll admit it, i laughed my ass off when i read that, but those jokers are as much a reflection of asian folks at large as the cartels are of latinos. you might get a couple chuckles for calling them a bunch of wetback taco benders, but you'd still be a two-bit bigot while you were doing it.

maybe i missed something, but when the fuck did racism get cool again? just saying.

imho the bay and other populated places are so used to mid grade outdoor that they think thats the only way outdoor comes...its fun to show people REAL outdoor organic buds that make their chemmed'out indoor look like schwilly lower buds off some sick plant. I went to harborside last week to get some hash on the way to the warrior game...i glanced at their flowers..even the top shelf looked like what my outs does after a few days neglected on the drying room floor lol

And dont get me started on dep, most dep ive seen is far superior to mersh indoor.

Gotta keep the outs above 17...for principle sake...there's principalities in this ..

BUT! even if it goes down to 8 , its still a show worth putting on if you can make it work efficiently

i dont know...just saw a new batch of cookies that came out of a 50 lighter that was top shelf as fuck and they wanted 22...but then again they only got 1lb a light so you can definately make more running something else. surprised to see GSC so low but larger orders got the discounts... like sunset said, the clubs growing their own and breakin it all down to 60 dollar 8ths in socal are making the killing right now.

harborside is just shit quality. their outdoors are usually stale and brown and their indoors green and premature with no flavor. i cannot believe with all the high quality outdoor herb available for cheap that some clubs are still selling such low-grade.

Jeesh. What a fiasco. I knew this would happen. Perhaps Legalization will improve things, and I can return to my beloved Geography...
Not too keen on making too many new personal relationships up there anymore though. The "POS" factor is off the charts on the Coast.

My friend who is actually still kicking ass, (as He got there 5 GOOD years before I did) calls it a "Shitshow." Accurate. Desperation Personified.

I will bring My people with Me next time.

OR even better yet, try to cure my addiction to living in Do-Nothing Coastal NorCal, and go somewhere else near an ocean, where I can educate, and paddle into a few waves now and then.

We call Mendocino "Marin North" now. "Trust-a-far I" central. Same thing happened to SF. Things change. That's the only sure thing..

Isn't coastal NorCal near an ocean? (Pacific)
So where would you go now if you were considering a move from a non med state? If you think it sucks there, imagine the paranoia in the non med states.
That's why all of us who live in non med states dream of moving somewhere where we don't have to worry about getting our door kicked in.

Yes, RetroG, the Coast is near the ocean..

28-32 here in the Midwest. Ins. Outs are showing up in local dispensaries, much to my happiness. A preference for "Sun-Grown,"
is not advantageous here..!! haha.

Metro Michigan Holding at 22-28 Ins.. Not so good here, either. Most Folks use "Eagle 20" and "Avid" indiscriminately. But, High Quality still garners attention, which means a couple hundo more. Broad Mites are dominating the scene. Most are in denial. Look for Many "Mitten" growers to throw in the towel. Many Buds are Duds. Urban areas accept lower grade Flowers, so many folks don't even try.

Politically, the Medical Marijuana Movement is in chaos, here. No outlets except in dangerous areas, for the most part. Lots of GOOD PEOPLE, but TONS of Thugs have taken over the industry.

The Governor, term used loosely, has a piece of legislation sitting on his desk that was UNANIMOUSLY voted on by the State Legislature. He will not sign it.. People/growers/brokers throughout the area are Hardcore, extremely competitive, aggressive, protective of their territory (especially in the Rural North), very reactive, and severely unhappy. Urban Craigslist deals often end in tears, or robbery.

Everyday is a gift. Useless to waste them in a depressing/depressed place.
