I donate meds to an "organic" dispensery. They don't ask me anything about my grow practices. Its a joke.

The amount of beef to fat to circus meat ratio is a closely guarded secret amongst manufacturers of fast food patties, this is a "legal" market, so if dispensaries are starting to guard their processes, they're emulating the current legal markets for standard commodities.

Not the same at all.ingredient lists are available for food. Not the same with cannabis. Even though it is state law most places don't list the ingredients of their cannabis.

If you are so proud of your product put an ingredient list on there.

I did with everything I personally make. Nothing to hide here.

And no I did not run from the epa. Funny though. :-)

Ingredients lists are fine, expecting someone to tell your their entire program down to dosages is just arrogant, though.

Had a chicken nugget lately?

I haven't had a chicken nugget in at least 16 years. No meat of any kind actually.

It's not arrogant at all. The only "organic" farmers I know with secrets grow cannabis.

Was at an organic farming seminar a few weeks ago, and the free flow of information was unstoppable.

They clearly weren't growing cannabis.

Some people care what goes in their bodies. Those people tend to use, ingest organic products. Those people tend to ask what, and how. They would be the same people you see reading labels at the grocery store, and asking farmers questions at the farmers market.

Those same people use cannabis as well. Those same questions apply.

Guess the EPA watches them too!! Ha!

However, the lingo needs to be across the board & consistent....and what constitutes "organic"...or not. By the way the medibles and edibles THC% varies from batch to batch, month to month (from similar post)....kind of a crap shoot all around!!

Yet another reason GYO!!!!

Considering the amendments being used on Cannabis have been used in agriculture for quite a while, I really don't see the point in being so hung up on other people's processes, you shop at whole foods or a coop to avoid low quality meats & produce, so if you don't like a dispensary's methods, simply don't shop there, your wallet speaks louder than being confrontational about organics ever will.

Chicken nuggets from most commercial processing plants contain traces of formaldehyde, but most people have no idea, why? Because it's at such a low level the government doesn't require it to be labeled. So, I stopped eating a beloved childhood indulgence, all because the government is looking out for the bottom line, not for the people.

Sustainability speaks for itself, as do traditional methods of production, but walking into your local 7/11 to preach about processed foods will mostly just get you laughed at.

The proprietary method involves guinea pig guano.

Seriously though, what about a proprietary method of curing and storing? I see a lot of
emphasis on nutritional regimens and supplements, but it seems to me that it would help to
distinguish a dispensary if there were a superior curing and storage facility.

I guess the more information the better, just name your dispensary "Open Source."

kind regards from guineapig
