Hey guy I’m from Virginia and as you know where a legal state and I’m in the process of opening my dispensary but it’s been challenging due to the market, looking for advice on staying consistent. Please and thanks
Keep the money run on a different day and time each time. And don't let it be go
With the price crisis and to cut overhead I’m undecided at the moment skeptical about buying from growers, but it’s been an ideaWelcome to the farm.
Are you suppling as well or buying from growers? I'm pretty sure @Vb2flat2surf is in VA.

This is something me and my wife was actually just having a conversation about a lot of buying go for looks and taste not more so potency. When you are a small independent business man trying to compete against government operated dispensary’s, I’d rather have quality over quantity and real cannabis smokers will be able to tell the difference. That is the impact I’m trying to make as well as my own strain as the face of my businessI'm from Michigan. It's been a legal rec state for a few years now.
From a consumer standpoint, I would think the best way to stay consistent and relevant in a highly competitive market is offer the best tasting flower to be found in the area. An advertised high THC % might get them in the door, but it's the taste that will bring them back for more.
This sounds easy, but it's actually not what's happened here in Michigan. The growers here are pretty much all large corporate big money growers. The focus is on leveraging a profit and not really on quality. Strains are picked by the calendar schedule and not necessarily when they are finished. Strains are dried quickly with little or no cure time leaving them harsh and with almost no real flavor profiles. If you can offer the better flower at the same or a better price than your competitor you'll do well. Word will get around.
I stopped buying dispensary weed and started growing my own when the price went up and the quality went down. Quality went downhill when the caregiver grown weed was pushed out of the market by the regulations that favor deep pocket corporate growers. Almost all care-givers were mom and pop operations without deep pockets but a high focus on bringing a plant to its true genetic potential. They took pride in the quality of their work and it showed in what they grew.
EXACTLY what happened to Mom and Pop food farmers! Joel Salatin has many stories of capitalist greed: Link Joel SalatinI'm from Michigan. It's been a legal rec state for a few years now.

Totally agree with this. I got a free top shelf gram from a dispensary earlier today and while it looked and smelt absolutely amazing, it tasted and smoked like it was never cured with that harsh plant afterburn and no distinguishable weed taste.I'm from Michigan.

Looks like fire to me! Form over function is new-age bullshit! It's the EVERYONE LOOK AT ME crowd that runs shit now.this is the Runtz that i just grew for personal. I grow as organic as possible, give as much TLC as plants need but it sucks cause the bag appeal isnt what other "Runtz" ive tried. However COMPLETELY consistent with what Runtz text book says and effects are. Plus white ash, great exhale and i "know" its runtz or atleast trust ILGM with that part. I wanna learn to get to get the bag appeal now (pardon kid movie in background lol)
That looks good to me... plenty of people prefer substance over style... I'll take my organic outdoor that looks decent after trimming/drying/curing/dry trimming/more curing but tastes great and gets you baked over the dispo shit that looks great, even smells great but is usually tumbled, not properly cured and tastes like shit and has a mediocre buzz. Even the top shelf 15 bucks a gram shit us just bland low level shit as far as I'm concerned... no depth, it's like the Mr.Boston of weed.... it'll get ya stoned eventually, but you don't buy it for the taste and you might end up with a headache.this is the Runtz that i just grew for personal.
