My First Experience With an LP: Canna Farms

This is going to be a step by step, detailed review on my journey to becoming legal under the MMPR. All patient accounts so far have been kind of hard to follow, from filtering out frustration to picking out comments from thread to thread and trying to piece it all together.

Getting my Prescription:

Printed off my forms, I had been scared to ask my DR. about it for years because i thought he would tell me to fuck off. He was actually quite open to it agreed to sign my script.

Registration:

My documents took 4 business days to reach BC from NS.

Once received, the team at Canna Farms have been very helpful so far. Always pleasant and answered my questions directly, even when i grilled them about the late releases on their July strains.

They gave me step by step updates on progress through the process.

My doctor took FOREVER to fax them back and verify my prescription. (roadblock #1)

Attempt at Making My First Purchase:

My strain of choice is Green Crack. They don't have any. (roadblock #2)

I decided that I would buy a gram of each other strain to see if any of them could produce similar effects.
They are sold out of 1/g portions and I'm not about to spend 200$ on medicine that I may not like. (roadblock #3)

The Red Cherry Berry is recommended for what I want, but it has a 5% (+/- 3%)THC level and no CBD ..so I'm thinking no lol.

How the fuck are they sold out of 1/g portions yet they have 25/g portions? Are they trying to say that they took EVERYTHING they harvested and pre-packed it in 25/g segments? They don't have any safely stored in their vault that isn't pre-packaged ? The size options are 1/g,10/g and 25/g.(Irrelevant because you can select 1/g and then select 7/g under the quantity menu) I wouldn't mind spending the money if I knew I was getting the strain that worked for me, but I'm not about to spend anymore than what a gram is worth if I'm unsure of whether it'll be effective or not.

Not purchasing until I have some better options.

Will update when the time comes

So you cannot order different strains by whatever gram you want? Only in 25 gram? (I am also now seeing 1g and 10g are there too). That seems like way too much of one kind. I like more than 1 g, but less than 10 mostly.

My LP has 15 g packs of certain (popular?) strains, and I think there is a bit of a discount buying in bulk.

Everything else, I just put in # of grams I wanted.

I got 5 strains, and between 5 and 15 g of each kind.

I'd say about half of the strains they advertise say "coming soon", and are not yet available.

My plan, try all the strains I want to or that are available, and then move on to the next LP. I hope to try as many as I can. Because - why not?

But I don't want to be forced to buy 25 g of one kind. So I may have to pick Canna Farms last, or only after they change their available grams.

Thanks for the input!

Rest assured that they are NOT sold out - they just don't offer them as much as the other sizes so you will be forced into purchasing 'big jugs' of crap! I speak from experience. Told them to take a fuck off pill two weeks ago after dumping my coin into their weak as shit, shit! Every Stufff is weak! That Green Crack is Ok but not even close to Jack Herer or Kali Mist etc. Nope, they seem to be bound by some sort of low THC producing clause that we missed in the MMPR rule book.

Cherry Berry? May as well toss yer money into a hot oven.

No discount for bulk buys. The only place you save is on the shipping.

Will get a call from yer LP next week to place an order. If this stuff doesn't stack up, I'll be on my 5th LP in in as many months. Gotta be a record? hah

Sorry to hear about your experience so. From what I've seen from canna farms is they sell out of their one/g samples in the first day it's released. When talking with Carley from CF she told me they had to pre package everything coz it's the law...I call bull shit on that. When I asked if they would consider breaking down their 25g packages. She said that's not an option.....

Having said that I'm still happy with the product I've received from them. (Master, pink, green crack) from what I've been told they will be selling superbud, a new batch of master and hopefully the Kootenay starting on 18th.. Time will tell I guess

I just made my second order.

I've tried all the strains available (after my order arrives, 2 days probably).

Now I am on the fence about what to do. I could wait around and see if their "coming soon" strains start becoming available...

Or I could switch.

I have not heard any stellar reviews about other LP's though.

After out right lying to you about pre-packaging and not being able to sell single grams, you are placing another order with them? Buy some quality bud from Billy up the street, and use their packaging to make you legal. I would not support a 'business' that would treat me that way.
Where I live, Billy down the street sells shitty weed.

Where i live, if i continued on the black market route, i would be paying at least 10 straight or up to 15/g for strains like master, pink or green crack. they sell single grams, so i figured it would still be cheaper for me to get it from them, but they don't have any.i read some good and bad things about them before but i work in a service based industry and some people say good, and others bad so i didn\t take much of it into account. i just figured, hey it isn't tweed right?

i'm also pretty sure they don't offer compassionate pricing.

I see what my friends get from "billy down the street"....and it's crap.....but more expensive and probably full of pesticides and god knows what else....this system is far from perfect...but I definitely don't feel like CF has betrayed me or anything like that...from what I've seen every Lp has its own policy's that they follow because of how they interpret HC every changing rules and regs. The mmpr is less then 6 months old now so I'm not surprised to see all this bull shit come up.....it just sucks that we (new mmpr patients) are the guinea pigs.

WOW! More than double the going rate here. The compassion club in town is $5 - $8/g and they are never out of 1g pkgs!

haha pre-packaging is definitely not part of the regulation never heard that from any other LP's, they're trying to con everyone into spending more to get rid of their garbage stockpile. it seems there is not even one good choice to make as far as LP's currently shipping, ppl sayin tilrays in-house product is gonna be garbage and not flushed even LOL
