could pot be worthless in 2 years?

It should be worth the same as lettuce now. Its only greed and politics that make it worth anything.

Look at India, Its an important part of life events there. It grows wild and is given away. Its no big deal. Only politics made it a big deal in Western countries with the American "War on drugs"

Asian Americans, I don't want to get into racism just the way they moved in grew 10X more then any one and dumped it for half price to every club.
And its pretty darn good stuff because they get the clones from good breeders.

just saying, I cant get my head around it.

Its not a racism thing, i don't know what else to describe them as with out pushing this topic over the cliff.

Its OG and sour D.

Many are violating environmental laws, iv been to a dozen farms and they all cut down the forests into slash piles.

There was a show on the vice channel saying that it's common to see gang activity associated with large illegal grows.

If you crave the 'Big Mac', just do 'em at home. Super easy, and the "secret sauce" is easily duplicated. (And tastes far better/fresher than the chemical-laden garbage served by the nasty clown.)

I fully expect pot prices to go way down as more and more people get into growing their own as it becomes legal in more states and here in Canada. Thing is a lot of those people will find out that growing pot is a lot of hassle and outlay of cash to do it half decent so will opt to buy from the vendors like most people do with beer.

Anyone can brew their own beer and wine but not many do as it's not that easy to get a good product. Much easier to go pick up a tasty product for their weekend tipple and that's the way it will end up with pot. The big commercial producers of pot like it is set up in Canada are gearing up for the upcoming recreational market. They can become the Budwisers of the pot world as long as smaller growers can be licensed to become the micro-breweries of the pot world.

So far the gov'ts that have approved pot re-legalization have based their projected tax returns on prohibition pricing then setting up their rules to protect that wrong-headed model. That doesn't help them get rid of the black market which is one of their main reasons or so they say. Free market forces need to be allowed to work with pot as it is with most other commodities or it's just prohibition with different rules. Like in WA where home growing is not allowed. All they are doing is protecting the new cartel's profits and their own tax revenue stream. How is that fair?

The fight to make the plant truly free is far from over.

Yeah, I have many friends lamenting the days of $3,200/unit. But, with the advent of legalisation, it's only natural that production will be scaled up everywhere and prices will fall. It seems to me, you can either grow for the commodity market or produce something based on desirable genetics and growing standards (OG/hand-trimmed) that people are prepared to pay a premium for. The premium market will always be there. I can definitely see growers needing to produce high value, vertically integrated products that show off those genetics.

Yea its really not shaping up to be fair in Canada. It's no wonder all these massively funded corporations are getting a head start before the government lays down the hammer on small growers. A lot of the recommendations by groups who are directly tied to pharmacy, alcohol and these new LP groups who want to protect their interests are calling for 6 or less plants per person which is a joke if we're talking about something legal and for personal use. A big problem is that there isn't enough of an argument from the "grow as much as you want" camp that doesn't get wrapped back up in public safety. To them it sounds like the market will be flooded and unregulated which defeats why they're even considering legalization: the money. We love to tax the hell out of anything we can in Canada including some of the highest taxes on tobacco & alcohol. Marijuana is another cog in that budget.

It has nothing to do with the ethics of growing and medicine. The truly free places will be the countries that follow suit and remove restrictions entirely.

I'm working for the day when medicinal quality Cannabis can be grown for a few bucks a pound, because then the thugs will fuck off, the tax man will look elsewhere for revenue, the corporate greed heads won't turn a massive profit...

And those who really NEED it will finally be able to afford it instead of financing the lifestyles of all the above mentioned parasites.

In the framework laid out by the task force their recommendations were 4 plants per household with a canopy limit of 1m lol what a joke.

A joke in poor taste; it's blindingly obvious they give no fucks about the needs of patients, only the desire for profit for LPs.

Do corporations get to give money to political campaigns in Canada? If so, it's definitely time to outlaw the practice. America is a classic example of what happens if they're allowed to continue.

Your hired, when can you start. im paying $2 a pound to trim.
I hire a chef to cook flown in from Japan that cooks when I harvest so the trimmers get good organic vegan stir fry, Miso, Sushi, Nori, Wantons,

Its a noble profession but $2 a pound you cant even get a seat at my table.

The future of $2 a pound weed is Huminure and untrimmed.

Im not being troll or angry we need to grow pot in untreated human sewage. AKA Huminure https://www.pri.org/stories/2013-06-13/recycled-lunch-using-human-waste-grow-food-and-fight-climate-change

And dont trim it, a little of the poo will be in the leafs you can just choke it down.
