Wholesale prices have dropped to 1200-1500 for quality product, warnings ignored, families destroyed, yay legalization.
I agree your face should be a sign of quality... Then I look up and see the add for RB 26.
Hate to say it but branding is where we are headed.

Is that really what's happening down there? Can I expect that up here in Canada when legalization hits?

Is that Tommy Chong's face on a warning about the potential health hazards of cannabis? What kinda drugs was he on when he came up with that one? Maybe all that cocaine fried him dumb or something LMAO

Yep. They wanted the black market gone, the black market can sell any drug they want, Cannabis users generally only use and grow Cannabis, so all they managed to do was make life more miserable for Cannabis growers who don't have a corporate overlord.

One of the main reasons I avoid dispensary nug is the economics. The other is that after visiting a few they are run by smug assholes. Like some dude who grew hanging baskets is now their master grower and thinks all platns are basically the same. Dude running things is usually and MBA and his partners are usually even more money hungry and rude than him. They produce sub par weed in mass, act like cowboys, and in general think they are much better at everything than everyone else. I've had multiple dispensaries give me bad grow advice and sell me shit nug or concentrate. Its like buying Walmart produce Vs a farmer's market. You want what was grown with love and care, not what's grown with salts as fast and big as possible. Not to mention fuck the government. They don't deserve a cut at all after ruining so many lives over the same thing. Make friends and smoke better herb. Will cost less and treat you better.
That is the exact reason Bud light and McDonald's are huge. The lowest quality and huge investments into marketing. You will be cooler to other people drinking our beer. Both fully market to followers. It's really a slap in the face to people who support their products. It takes maturity to be your own dog and demand better. My daughter has made a couple trips to Colorado and bought smoke. Only one that was a cross of DJ Shorts Flo and some blah, blah indica was even worth smoking. There is much room for improvement. Only an open fair market will provide quality. Peace

That's mighty kind of you, Yodaweed. Wish I could blaze some fire with you but I'm in Oregon. It's hit and miss here in the pot shops for good bud. They label the weed with a THC % that I have found quite helpful. I look in the jar and visually inspect and smell and point out the buds I want to purchase. I always have to make a point to tell the budtenders to not rip my buds apart to get a perfect rounded measurement but instead take it a little over or under. I take an approximate gram home to test. If it is exceptional I make a point of getting Back to the shop ASAP to get more before it sells out because the likelihood of getting the same batch in the future is rare. I am in a living living situation where I can not simply grow my own and when I have it was rather expensive with the cost of my electricity bill. When I do find dispensary bud that is exceptional, I make a note of the farm that grew it and look for their name in the shelves along with a high THC%, over 20% usually delivers a good immediate head rush and a longer high.
