Dispensary's sell good enough herb to ship across country ?
That is news to me most of that garbage wouldn't fly in the south east.
They would send it back.
LMFAO! Yea right I could take anything that sells at 150/oz here and wholesale it at 2x that price anywhere on the east coast.
Fucking anywhere from Connecticut to Georgia.
You could get $125/quarter for mid-range warehouse bud without breaking a sweat on the east coast.

No way....Denver's very best "medical" MJ in any dispensary is mediocre at best n not close to east coast killer quality.
This is because no one will pay over $200/oz anymore so no one is incentived to grow their very best. My own stuff is never as good as I know how to do it because I need to get my next cycle going.
I run 55 day flower cycles when 70 would be much better for the same strains - no one will pay me more anyway why do I care?
Across the board, the mediocre quality is entirely a result of market forces, not some sort of absolute lack of grow skills, IMHO.

I think CO has a long way to surpass cali. They fail to mention the truckloads of money that is pouring into colorado's economy..
Colorado has 1200 miles on California. Smack dab in the middle of the country you really couldn't ask for a better distribution hub - and when you get right down to it, while California's laws are ostensibly much more permissible - Colorado's are not really enforced or particularly enforceable once you get out of the big licensed, camera-ed MMC's.

Should read " Recent study shows Colorado's medical marijuana is diverting tons of cash from california and mexican cartels straight into Colorado's economy"
This is probably rosy-stoner-fantasy. Most of what I've have seen indicate that cartel operations tend to use legal facades and legal outlets to cover for illegal activity. Much better to set up grow-ops in a state like Colorado where there is at least the veneer of legality for possession and cultivation that - say - somewhere on the east coast where attention is far, far more likely.
If anything these developments have probably increased cartel profits - alongside local Coloradoans sure - but in an absolute sense this pie is getting exponentially bigger all the time - I think everyone is getting more and more even if wholesale prices have dropped.
