There have been many changes in the Oregon marijuana industry since marijuana went legal for recreational use. There have been noticeable ripples in the supply chain changing the game for many growers.

There are forecasts of major price drops down to $600 a pound of bud and $1 grams of oil in the future.

There are concerns of the connoisseur market dispearing.

What are you noticing is happening to the market? What kind of wholesale prices have you seen?

So far still between 1400-2400 depending on a lot of factors

Once dispensaries become separated as medical or rec what do you think will happen?

[Aota1]

I think there will be very few med only dispensaries unfortunately. Our med customer percentage is 5-10% on a daily basis. Some other dispensaries have a larger core of med regulars but not by much I think. It seems like every producer will need to get licensed to survive. There's going to be the first ever in Oregon herb auction next month in Medford!

I picked up 50 units of indoor 1750 all Fruity Strains... No Kushes or Cali popular genetics ... but this is year round prices all day/night

Outs 30 units 1000 each... quality solid but not on the same level as NorCal

Thanks for the info. Folks I been speaking with are thinking the same thing. For some, the uncertainties of the next few years really makes it tough to start a new medical business. It may not pay to be a first mover on the rec game either if a lot of folks end up losing their asses over the next couple years. Who knows....

Is there a website for the auction?

Nice grab. Those prices seem fair. What are you getting in nor cal that your not getting in southern Oregon?

Plenty producers might be content with $600 by the time all the rec producers get rolling.

Currently 988 rec applications in:

https://www.oregon.gov/olcc/marijuana..._by_county.pdf

Most of those are for 40k square feet of canopy space and few are currently in production yet. From what I understand those that are producing have to wait weeks to get product tested.

Consider the state was already saturated before rec, a year from now should be a glut like has never been seen anywhere.

Rec wholesale bud prices seem to be up about $200/lb since the expensive testing era took over

Yeah, seems like the prices are really inflated at dispensaries right now. I'm guessing within a year producers will be able to bring the prices down and have variety consistently. I could be wrong though. It will be interesting to see what happens...

We've seen things stay pretty consistent where I work. cheapest we've picked up recently is 1000/lb, most expensive (this month) was 2200/lb. I'm on the retail side of things, btw.
