I do enjoy your enthusiasm and positive outlook.

I don't think anything mass produced is going to be as good as anything coming out of a small batch. But at the same time, the average person isn't going to know the difference between a few points of thc / terpene content. Especially if the mass produced bud is packaged fancily, has celebrity endorsements (weed celebrities or the regular variety) and a bud tender hyping it up in person.

This is WHY I hunt Dispo's to source legit cuttz & dispell the HYPE...
But I am finding that most strains require 2 solid joints to really give a solid Smoke Report.
I find that Dispo's that support craft do better & Dispo's supported by craft sustain better & improve.
I find that most budtenders have good sale energy...but they are all BARTENDERS..
No Shots FIRED...but, that personality isnt What Drives The Dispo's ACTUAL Cash sale in bulk.

Lemonatti - Fritter - Super Boof...I have to test all these...2 joint minimum
I have to expose all HYPE...as Garbo.
Then Smokers can make INFORMED purchases.

I get it Legal Noobs want to be the next COOKIEs...
Why not be the NEXT HAZE? The NEXT OG Kush??
The Next Blueberry...You Feel Me?!
The Vision is off because The History & love Might be misplaced by The Money

As a Commercial Grower for the past 4 years, i gotta admit,.. I was in it for the money at first. But as im shutting down the op because prices have come down so much that it actually costs you money to do a grow...you're 24K x WCT is worth about $400 a lb. ..... without seeing labs or pics.

No offense to you, but the reason the market bottomed out is everyone was trying to become a billionaire. What happens when everyone who can't hang gets out of the game? Obviously corporations will take a huge chunk of the market, but prices will eventually start to rise again and then stabilize. It's sad, but I think this was necessary.

I was never out to become a Billionaire... I just saw (and knew) that this was temporary as far as making some good money in a short period of time.. After roughly 1500 days in a row of taking care of our Craft op, I came to realize that this plant should really just be available to everyone at a reasonable price, or teach every home grower how to have a successful harvest for thier own consumption. I'd do it for free now if I can help someone out. We've made oil for friends and family at no cost to them (other than the solvent)... my time is free to them.
But when you have such loose laws, it will eventually become a cheap commodity like tomatoes. Even if Big Corps come in on all 50 States (which it will) Anybody can grow weed... it's not hard. Some people buy tomatoes at the store, and other grow thier own.

The market is a bubble based on a black market product. Take away the black market and you are farming. Even at such a small scale. The value of weed is being adjusted back to a price that reflects reality.
Now that the pres said he wants congress to reschedule, we shouldn't be too far out from having federally legal weed. There will be less small producers then. It will all mainly be produced by corporations.

There are all sorts of plants and herbs that hold a decent value. Good bud will never be a cheap produce like a tomato. You can't really estimate future prices based on the prices during a washed out market. We know what the low end is, which is apparently not worth the squeeze for more and more commercial growers. Less growers, less supply. Demand isn't going down so prices rise until equilibrium is struck. The future market price will be significantly less than what it once was, but I think there will still be a modest living to be made for those who are dedicated and/or lucky. We haven't seen the equivalent of craft breweries emerge yet because the dust hasn't come close to being settled.

I cant Vibe with It ...

Corps need to take a back seat...All they want is Money. Packaging. Licensing. Filing Fees.
Where is The SMOKE BRO...ooh, Yeah...Our Accountant handles That!
--Bro, WHere's The Accountant ??
On RIU trying to find @YerpGodMarley

Khalid: ANOTHER 1!!!

I have to admit, I RESPECT @DoubleAtotheRON
He goes Just Big Enough to Eat Well ...I respect That.
All I have seen him grow are clean frost machines
IF I had his CURRENT SETUP...I would become HUB DEPOT BABY!!
11/13 All Day...
Seed Packs on Seed Packs ON Seed Packs...
VEG.
Select-- Then watch the real money work.

Its a break down from seed to sale...
When we started to break free from BC ChinaBuds & Cartel Lbs....Cali was on the front lines...
If that wasnt the BIG CORP. vs THE UNDERGROUND...I missed some key points in that struggle.
Everybody was playing their role...
Seed Banks
Testers
Forum Support Growers
Grow Supply Chains
Clone Holders
Head Shops
Dealers
& Med Users

$20 a gram
$10/$10 Grower/Dealer
Now It Looks Like a $5.00 split...
Grower/Dealer/Dispo/TAXES....Same $20.00

Now what!? a Grower STRIKE....FUCK EVERYBODY???!
Ultra Pot Snob Season...???
Smokers Clutching The Bag...JAR HUGGIN THUGGIN
I dont think We need that....
But If Growers Become The New IT GIRL....Oh. BOY!!

75K for a grower:
30 plant minimums
1200+/- hours @ 4 - 6 harvest a year.
IN a Private Deal...Sure.
Its all personal....
I'd take the job...

$1200 a plant
Thats $1.00 an hour VS $500 per Oz Produced.
$50 @7gm is The New $20/grm...
Just Cause You grow it Doesnt Mean YOU can sell it...
PAY THE DEALERS...Thats WHAT They DO...

IF Brick & Mortar Dispo's Said PAY US $5.00/grm & we'll stock your harvest....YOU got 30 Days. Until We Return It...Oz & UP!--2.2 Lbs. Max.
They have a list of strains 100 people long....
All $6 - $100 in price...actual grams.
They return Your Bag...You sign off & You can shop it anywhere Else.
They Win!! That is a sustainable business Model...
It gives The Tent Guys a Place to Shine...
It gives The Outdoor Crew a Place to Dump...
It gives The FLOWER LOVERS a REAL TOY STORE..

IF it was that easy to get in a Dispo...
YOU could send Your 2.2Lbs. to All The Major Legal States & Let Supply & Demand DO THe Rest.

$400 for 24K x White Cherry Truffles...
Thats a STEAL....
$200 for The Breeder/ $200 for The Grower / $400 for The Dealer --16oz@$50/ a $560oz for The VIP Smokers
GAS!!

How Many Oz. Per Tree @DoubleAtotheRON ?? Seriously...
