Weed is worthless

Wow thats cheap. I am in Oregon and can't find anything that cheap.
You got to be linked in to telegram's and instagram. find local growers on instagram and then the pipeline will start flowing i'm paying 100 a qp for some great outdoor smoke. I found a connection at a local cannabis fest and it all happened from there because they had a telegram

Yeah that would be nice about right now. One bill a QP sounds bueno
 
I used to deal with a girl that dedicated herself to brokering weed. She started out with a trim biz and had a couple of teams that would come to your grow and trim all your flower for a couple hundred a P.

I was moving a hundred P though her along with whatever deals I had going with my clientele.

One day she calls me and tells me she has some amazing industrial indoor for $1,200 a P....I had to see it to believe it. When I saw it it looked good but I could tell immediately this wasn't hydro indoor. She kept swearing it was indoor so I asked her how big the grow room was to have 200 P available from the grower. She finally admitted it was light dep but that she called it industrial indoor because it was grown indoors in a greenhouse.

I told her to please not refer to product like that again with me as I felt that was false advertising. She apologized and I never bought anything from her that wasn't what she claimed it was.
 
Yeah I guess it's different if you grow it by the acre lol... but I have had 10 lb years and my statement still stands lol.

Idk how ya'll grow outdoors with this stuff. I'm sick of fighting slugs, aphids, and caterpillars of my veggies, nevermind my weed. Fk that lol. I have 1 plant outside (auto, and it might as well have been a photo as it just started flowering like 2 weeks ago, and I planted the thing back in March) and it's been an annoying experience so far. It has been educational, so there's that, but still lol

Gonna go out on a limb and say it ain't an auto lol.
I genuinely prefer outdoor... good outdoor, not guerilla grown with no love outdoor... there's a vast difference... but yeah... probably more work, way more variables to deal with, most out of your control.

It's flowering and we have more than 12 hours of daylight :P Can't be a photo, right?

I give all you outdoor growers lots of respect because it's certainly a lot more work
 
i gather all the cheap cannabis in your states is outdoor grown.
Yeah 👍 I think this particular vendor (if I go that route) is outside but flowering it inside a greenhouse with a little better control over the flowering phase and the obviously great humidity control

I originally used these people as a reliable seed source 😂

I'd like to understand the process a little better but have my suspicion of how it's being done



As much as it pains me to say it. This particular vendor is knocking it out of the park. Just trying to be honest and truthful

$21 ounce
Strawberry banana x lemon OG

Wow.with all the expenses of growing indoors I don’t know how they do it.there profit margin must b tight.up to 4400 a p here when dry but the usual cost is around 3200-3500 a p.
Yeah 👍 I believe it's well heeled growers who are trying to undercut the market to gain more market share and wait everything else out

Hoping they can scale themselves into a sustainable profit
 
Weed in the Ann Arbor/Yspilanti area went from $60/eighth about 3 years ago, to around $100 - $200 an ounce today, for "top shelf."

The potency is often there, but the aesthetic qualities of the weed are about as low as low can be. Sometimes you're lucky and it's not very harsh. If you enjoy sativa doms that take 10 or more weeks, you better grow your own, because commercial grows can't afford to grow strains that require more than about 9 weeks.

Edibles and extracts are pretty good, though. I'm not a huge consumer of either, but gummies and other edibles sure came in handy when I had to endure long flights.

I still see, on occasion, eighths going for $50 and $60. They are better, aesthetically, but the average "top shelf" sets a low bar.

Two good strains I've tried at dispensaries, on the sativa side, are Tropicana Banana, which I think is by Barney's Farm, and Mob Boss, by Anesia. They must finish fast, is all I can figure. I never grew either one, myself.

We have a few choices on where to buy weed, we can buy at the government store @ $12 - $18/ gram or get it delivered from an online shop for $5/g - $66 oz onward up to $120 oz for top shelf name brand stuff.

Whoa that is one of the more gorgeous buds I've seen lately. How come they sprinkled powdered sugar all over it, doesn't that make smoking it fattening? Reminder: If you don't watch your figure, the girls won't either.

I am seeing sativa landraces like Acapulco Gold, Columbian gold, Panama red... Mostly everything I smoke these days is sativa leaning and I'm getting the experience of a particular strain plus a few feminized seeds...

I like the purple flowers even more. The best thing about some of these cultivator isn't the frost factor IMO but it's Terps profile. The stinky and strong smell are really evident

Day Tripper is a hybrid cannabis strain that managed to inherit sativa-like effects from its indica-dominant family tree. A descendant of Sensi Star, Medicine Man, and Master Kush

One of the 🦨 strain I've come across over the years. Burns really slowly also

Personally I suspect that there are major advantage with growing in controlled greenhouse conditions not only with cost but also with quality potency and overall complexity

using the 🌞 PLUS some additional red and UV light.. good filtration and air quality... Rotation Into the ripening phase lighting last few weeks ..... Just a guess

Just my personal opinion but I think it's got some merit if VDP and air quality are in proper alignment.
 
They look like pretty standard prices. I see lots of things in that price range and lots of lower quality buds with higher THC levels

I look for density and freshness... The darker purple bud especially. Anything else in the 16 to 22% range. 24% at the highest

These are often the Old school 🔗🔗🔗🔗 and have more ummmph and complexity...

Those high THC cultivars lack a certain type of quality and potency IMO
 
Well we are finally at the point that I can buy weed cheaper than I can grow it. At least edibles; I can still beat the $3g buds. The stores are selling 2,000mg gummies for $40, and 1g vape cartridges are $15. Anyone have lower prices then that, I'd like the hear it.

They're gonna have to pay me 5 bucks to come in then give me my shit for free....and I'm still not stopping by....big ole nope from me

$65 ounces, 100mg drinks are $8, and i get 10 packs of carts for $100, and $10 grams of dab. All from a medical dispensary in Maine.
Its a 6 hour ride one way so i only stop in when im visiting my FIL. Its nice to stop in and pick up 100 dollars worth of stuff for home once in a while.


Dispos here are outrageously priced, they want $65 an EIGHTH after taxes.... Or $50 for 100mg edible. NYS needs to just fuck off
 
Price is about standard for the country in a densely populated area.
I dunno man. It might be, but prices here in New York are the highest ive seen them anywhere ive been, and its not any cheaper for med patients like in other states.
Its kinda sad when street prices are 1/3rd of the dispensaries prices.
 
Prices in this land of prohibition is about double most dispos. What's worse than the pricing though is counterfeits. Flower is flower but things like carts, wax, and edibles are often fake with no THC and just terp juice.
Just better to GYO and get the gear to make your favorite concentrate. Not many have the skills or knowledge to be both a good grower and hashishin though so that market thrives

What's even more sad is when you see people lined up to pay the dispo price and see the black market folding up..

People want to be controlled and taxed its oddly stupid
 
Whenever I'm in Cali I head straight to one of the taco sesh's they hold weekly. All local growers and extractors. Almost always their product is superior to dispo crap. And cheaper.

It was like that here when they first opened but it died out pretty quick. I mean who is going to continuously stop in and grab a preroll for a hike or some shit when they run 20-30 dollars a preroll.... i can buy a lot of papers for 20-30 dollars and roll a bunch of joints like fuck me.
 
Black market here is hit or miss. Sometimes it's dispo weed from Colorado, other times it's from some shmo trying his hand at commercial production. That's usually mids at best. Problem is that it's the same price either way. My homie that move's lbs on the regular was straight blown away by my first harvest ever. Didn't tell him where I got it, just that I found some buds that "some guy" called lemonberry ice 🤣

Prerolls usually suck too. I break em down and roll two joints from one.
