I love the comment further down in that article page that quotes Marc Emery: “Legalization means the end of the lucrative money in weed growing & distribution.” I couldn't agree more. I'm so sick of people thinking they are going to capitalize on an artificially inflated product. I can grow my organic Cannabis at home for a fraction of the cost these Marijuana Entrepreneurs or "Manures" I call them want to sell it for. A Cannabis producer should have the same rules and regulations in place like they would any other food crop we ingest. Trying to fit Cannabis into an Oxycodone model just doesn't work. Nobody in 10 000 years has died from Cannabis, how much safer can we make it? I understand some basic tests for elevated levels of microbes and pesticides, but that's it. Cannabis is a plant, not a pill, so trying to standerdize it to the same extent is virtually impossible.
So you are the BCBD guy eh Matt? Well I've got a little bit of beef with you and your seed company. I was sold a $90 pack of GSC at the treating yourself expo 2 years ago. Lo and behold, all plants went herm with no stress whatsoever. I did a little research and found others to have the same problem. I am not a weathly guy like you, I earn an honest wage as a hardworking electrician. Wasting $90 on seeds was a pretty big blow to me, considering I had to open up a credit line in the past just to gain access to quality meds. I'm still in debt, but thankfully now that I'm growing for myself I can finally start paying it off. Now, if someone who earns over $30 an hour can't afford MMPR/black market prices, how in the hell do you expect to cash in off all the sick patients on disability who earn next to nothing? It's a joke, and from what I've seen, your genetics are a joke as well. I don't care what HT Cups you've won, we all know how shady those things are anyways. The proof is in the pudding, and the pudding you sold me sucked.
The future of Cannabis in Canada is small scale greenhouses with supplemental lighting and shading technologies, combined with small home gardens. The cost of maintaining an MMPR style mega grow is just infeasible, especially when high quality organic product is the main objective. I would even like to see Cannabis Social clubs start turning up once legalization hits. The Europeans are doing it right, putting the patient first, not the profits.
After reading that article, and seeing how much of a steamer you are Matt, I can clearly see now you are just in this business for the money. Driving around in your flashy yellow hummer, sitting on your nice 100 000 doller rainy day fund. It's all about the quality meds though right?
Now I'm not a hater, I was asked to grow for an LP, and the offer is still there. I'm not out to make money in this game though, and when I realized what we had to sell the product for just to break even the first year, I was out. I am all about the greater good, and getting this medicine into the hands of people who need it the most. Trying to set yourself up to be the next Seagrams of Cannabis is self centered and boardering on egomanical. Let's open up the market to all, then we will see who the real compassionate growers are. The diffence between guys like me and you, I dream of Marijuana, you dream of Money.
Then there's Med-Man, the one and only. Well I have to say you're one up on Matt for genetic stability, but quality of product is just okay. I am only speaking of your RSK, the only stain of yours I've grown out. The RSK you did well with at the TYExpo 2 years ago was a nice example of good meds. The only thing is, all the cups you win with are the clone only cuts, not the seeds you breed. Correct me if I'm wrong, but this I found to be a bit sleazy. At least you could grow out a few F1's and choose your best cut to enter. That would be a much better representation of the seeds you hawk. Ah well, live and learn. I will admit though I am interested in you selling $1-$2 dollar grams in the MMPR. This to me sounds like an impossibility, but who am I to say. If you can pull that off Med-Man you'd garner a ton of respect from your peers. With you being 3 years out from production though, and with legalization right around the corner, we could all be growing for less then $1-$2 a gram in small backyard greenhouses. So really, who cares?
Who ever hasn't yet, please join the MMAR Coalition Against Repeal. In these dark days before the dawn of true Cannabis freedom, it's the only honourable path to take.
