i was thinkin of the labeling regulations and my dreams for companies to stop removing, individual terps and injecting them, elsewhere, but instead, focusing on using enough strains, in an oil cocktail, to supply all of them, in a single, dose.
having been to reputable and irreputable dispensaries in various states, with varying prerequisites, for even entry. some, had the required labels; some not. obviously, labels, too, are cost factors. i was imagining what labels might show up, on a multiple strain cocktail and 8-10... 100+... sounded more costly, with regard to labels.
i dunno bout y'all, but the last time i purchased bud that intrigued me, in dispensary quantities- i did significantly better, at ones that actually had em in cookie type, jars (nope..
not vaults... light piercin... thc degradin... hand molestin... cookie jars and under further examination- some rocked... some, didn't even flush (no tag/label- dumps & higher end, LOOKING places). labeling an open container, is asinine, to me. sealed containers and even, "California's largest distributor"... were krappin out, clear trich, premature, krap.
labeling and regulation don't seem to me, to have anything to do with grower, integrity.
back in the day, how many of u paid extra, to have a "somg test", circumvented? think they throw away, their determination of larf? think smaller nugs, get separate testing/fees? these r the questions that enter my mind. think the trimming jobs, go to the highest bidders? hey, if john Glenn, was cool, with the fuelbomb, under his ash, who am i to complain about minimum wage and quotas? I'm just sayin... i have my doubts. i know i know what's in mine, but i still like to sample a strain, before investing life into it.
it only takes one sample of whatever brand, to know where their suppliers growers hearts n minds r... if the quality control person, is willing to bet their own reputation, on krap, entering, or exiting the building.
