What do I do with 100s of last year's lbs

Yeah so I have basicly my whole harvest from last year. Its nice and been sealed properly I just don't know anyone anymore. I'm hella stressed I spent my whole bank roll just paying the trimmers to trim it up. And on the grow expenses for the whole season plus this season. And now I've been stuck with it all season and it's time to trim up this year's crop. I have so much invested in the product im shitting my pants here. I'm worried it's getting to old. Lately I have been thinking that is going to turn soon. So I'm thinking maybe my only savior could be to extract it so that it can have a longer shelf life and I could maybe sell it slowly over the year. At this rate in thinking I won't even grow next season just continue to move all this product until i have none left. What would you do if you were me??

In a world awash with low quality mids, the laws of survival and economics dictate that you must create a higher quality product than the majority of your competition. There are lots of ways with different tech to do this. So get ready to spend hundreds of hours reading and eventually drop $$,$$$ to efficiently process that much weight. Welcome to the forums!!!

Damn Hermit,
Is your real name Rip Van Winkle?
If you're still sitting on 100's of 2016 outdoor packs, you must have fallen asleep under a tree after harvest and just woke up to not realize you are in big trouble.

The fresh harvest that just came in is one of the biggest in CA history and is estimated at 8x in-state demand.
Prices have been dropping all year long, and with the recent failure of CA regulators to implement a limit on the # of acres that can be put into production on the largest rec licenses, 2018 is shaping up to be the introduction of industrial cannabis we have all been dreading for years.

The market in your state is currently about 50% flower, 50% concentrate, and the majority of the concentrate is being sold for vape pens.
Many growers have been sending their entire harvest to be fresh-frozen and converted to oil.

Oregon had a bumper crop last year and this year, and they have had a serious impact on CA black market export.

Your packs have been going down in value every month since you harvested them, even without current market conditions.

If you don't know anybody, you need to meet some people and hopefully somebody can help you move your product for a percentage.

About this years crop, you should negotiate to pay your trimmers in weed instead of cash (2016 packs).
You are weed rich and cash poor.

Assuming you are seeking a legal Rec cultivation license, the opportunity next year for most smaller growers is to differentiate yourself with unique high quality strains and market yourself effectively to create your own demand.

Good luck.

You could always donate it to Jerry's Kids!! (just kidding).

Every place that's gone legal, to one extent or another, is experiencing shifting markets.

AspenGas, Patmando, and WaterFarmFan above shared varying degrees of helpful insights.

Are you starting to miss the old black market days yet??

I suspect in the near future, some of us will be asking retail shop personnel to step out back into the alley and speak in whispers, just so we can reminisce.

Also rosin can be made from the dry sift if the sift isnt the best or the sift can be refined into 99.9% heads
