What does your perfect system look like?

What process? Irradiation? Because not everything they have is irradiated.

From the pictures I see on the internet, most of what I see from Tweed is better.

It's tumble weed man
Probably shaken and beat against 10 screens before it hits your jar.
Not a single head left on it not to mention the fact that it's borderline dust by the time u get it.

It's part of why the end product is un affordable and robbed of the properties in it u want.
Med grade doesn't have to taste n smell like hand sanitizer to protect everyone

Or hay.
I agree.

I'm asking what standards, regulations, distribution and so on should look like. In the whole legal market, not just med, not just rec because we all know if grown right it doesn't matter what title the grower has, if it fire it's fire and that's all that consumers should have available.

Yet, even still, there needs to be low grade for lightweights.

What should the whole system look like, without personal attacks or slams on people. Can we have a real discussion about a common goal around here for a change?

Perhaps I'm thinking of a different case. I believe this happened two different times recently. Sounds like the market solved the problem quickly though.

It's possible but getting patent protection for a new use after the patent expires on a existing drug is hard to do. The slime ball were talking about found a drug off patent with one supplier only in the us/na market bought that company and jacked up the price of the drug is all. Like I said it took a compounding pharmacy not very long to spot the opportunity to undercut this bozo and steal all his customers. His game is very short sighted. If he would have jacked up the price of the drug 5x he would have not had the backlash and not had anyone trying to undercut him as the drug would have still been seen as "cheap" relatively speaking.

Not in my experience. Are you a Tweed patient? You should complain to them if they are sending me all the good stuff!

torontoke said:

I feel bad for your situation.
If you really think that tweed provides high quality meds then you would be amazed by what's really out there.
The process they put those meds through robs the user from half of the positives it could provide.

And compared to when I was a kid I'd say anything green and not full of seeds was a miracle but the times have truly changed.

Remember when you seen those stories about followings of the church drinking the fruit juice and falling dead due to beliefs and your like WHO WOULD DO THAT!? its kind of the same thing here. Slow loose minds that can't think.

No, competition helped actually. If he didn't have government protection he wouldn't be able to control the price. Someone else could make it in his place and he'd be forced into a competitive pricing scheme. That happened anyway because apparently the guy in question is a moron.

You're talking patent laws that have no bearing upon setting price except they could go as high as they wanted if there were no controls in place.

If they own the patent no one else can produce it. Therefore the company who owns such patent can set the value.

The gov restrictions and regulations helped fix that issue of a greedy pharma.
Good thing there is controls in place, isn't there.

rick just use 1 account, yes i know

No, it's bad that there's patent law in the first place.

First, it was a joke.
Second, are you a Tweed patient? You clearly know more than me, but it doesn't seem like you have any first hand experience with this LP.

ricky1lung said:

Exactly my thoughts.
Do you think all places that sell should be subject to the same laws and regulations?

Should a cc be able to sell weed that didn't come from approved and regulated producers?

Click to expand...

I think the answer shld be:
DEREGULATION.............SIMPLE!
Adults shld be allowed to do whatever n the fuc that they want as long as they are NOT infringing on anyone elses pursuit of happiness in the process.

The FREE Markets shld be judge & jury... If someone wants to buy from JoBlow who isn't licensed then so be it, if they'd rather buy from a Licensed dispensery because they feel it is more safe then so be it!

I strongly believe in the K.I.S.S system of doing things especially when it comes to our Gov't and regulations....

That works straight back to the lp bitch about ccs, why should their profits be undercut by people who operate outside of the legal framework put in place to protect legal investmets.

Would anyone here work all week and watch someone dip into your wages without saying anything about it?

That's why we have those laws, yes, we should allow people to benifit from their work that was done legally.

Actually I have a family member that is a tweed patient. I've seen and heard him bitch about 3/4 of the strains they offer.
I've looked at their meds with a loupe. I've asked them why it's not hand trimmed and why it's dry as a skeleton fart. I've also been registered or seen meds from like 6 other lps and they are all generic and raped imo.
I'm not the jump on anyone type and if your happy with what your getting than there may be no reason to even talk about it more.

That sounds made up AKA a lie

LP weed is required to be stored at low humidity to prevent mold. Of course this is a horrible practice (ask any cigar lover...) and results in low quality crap low in terepenes or free of them completely being sold to people.

I saw some SLH from one of the big guys I forget which and it was stored long term in a pill container (aka - not air tight). It had no nose to speak of and was dry as hell. So I believe it.

@torontoke word is trusted. I believe what he says to be true.
I've been trying to get more people posting their honest experiences but the resistance and backlash prevents most people from posting.

It would be nice if we could talk about all aspects, but it gets buried in bs here at times.

well seeing as how you've been a member here since Thursday I hope u believe that I don't give a rats rectum what you think is a lie or not.
I gain nothing one way or the other where u buy your meds.
But out of curiousity alone I hope you take one of your precious pieces of twood and look at it yourself with a loupe and see if you can find a tric head on it.

JungleStrikeGuy said:

Actually I'll expand a bit on regulations here.

Regulations are brought in to address an issue, like the SEC in the states to prevent stock shadiness.

What is the reason for 'regulation' when it comes to cannabis? There's some conflicting interests between med and rec for sure, but where are all the people who have either gotten sick or died from 'unregulated' weed?

Thier has been several cases of people getting very sick from plants being sprayed with avid late in flower. Would give links but im lazy.
