I agree we need a "Board of O.G. growers" not big anything so the infrastructure "Monies" don't get stolen for "county commisioners" steak's & wine dinners. Where's the "Legal Gambling" monies from Lotto??
I tend to look at it like craft beer. As long as there is a good choice available to the consumer I can vote with my wallet. You can drink Budweiser and Coors Light or you can drink some crazy backwoods farm brew thing you have to go fill up jugs yourself if you want... that's the beauty of capitalism..... sometimes.
But sometimes a lot of other factors like economics come into play.
It's great if you want to live an all organic vegan lifestyle and shop at Whole Foods and smoke the dankest living soil flower, but I hope you can afford it too ...because at least here in the US, its not a level playing field.
You need to get a grip on those production costs. $50/oz is way too much.If I was willing to smoke the $50oz commercial, taxed weed already available here, my consumption costs would probably be about equal to my production costs... But I'm not.
I enjoy growing cannabis regardless... And will always do so... Even if it is just another expensive hobby for me.
Dispensary weed is garbage, national legalization will not change anything.
The garbage will be mass produced by the money man controlled by the government.
Prices will stay high because of taxing.
Black market will thrive mainly because people don’t want to smoke the garbage or pay a tax on there weed.
LMFAO, security light:)Well said...i know a yahoo that just bought a house, out in the country, him n his brother grew really good weed, grew this summer 3 plants....fuckin idiot put it under the security light on his property....directly under it for months!! Fuckin idgits!! Pays 300 for an ounce of weed and refuses to grow indoors...i gave him a gd offer that couldnt be refused...but he did anyways...has the audacity to tell me if you have an ounce of weed you are a dealer and should go to jail and be fined. $1,000 dollar fine aint shit!! Fuck me!! The gov getting a $1 of my money is not cool! This yahoo told me this shit i wanted to slap the Fuck outta him....i cant see myself knowing people like this...consumers who dont care about their bottom line have a serious mental illness....oh he made 35,000 last year! Where the fuck do these people get off!?! Im poor, i made 33,000 last year...lol
The feds shouldnt be able to tax it! Its illegal at their level...10th gives states their own rights. By law feds cant be in states harassing anyone. Legal or illegal...thats a state right now. State has to arrest the illegal growers...the fed gov is bullshit!It’s gonna be a giant cluster fuck imo, by the time they get done taxing the hell out of it, making us buy tax stamps for every plant and the rest of the bullshit they can conjure up in their piss ant brains. the “black market” will still be alive and well, in Michigan the tax is 6% sales tax + 10% pot tax, now add the feds BS to it.
it’s all about the government getting their “fair share” which means find every way they can to screw the little guy.
If anyone can name one thing the government has gotten their fingers in that isn’t a giant cluster I will retract this post.
Couldnt make something up so lame bro...fuck me...funny thing is i told his gf that he was doing it wrong, she never said a word...me and her still laugh about it! Face palm!!!!LMFAO, security light:)
It was the fuckin freemason that sold american out for the masons....masons, i guess im an anti"......" something or another....All the hoops we / you have to jump through for this plant is ridicules and each one there's a cost plus tax. How did we ( the people ) allow these guys / Fucks to have so much power over our personal lives? Lawyers......Blame the fking lawyers....lol.....they sold us out.
it sure as hel wasn't the plumbers,carpenters,electricians, Barbers,fishermen ect. Lawyers...should be followed with spit. oops med time.
I'm good, worth every penny and then some.You need to get a grip on those production costs. $50/oz is way too much.

You'd probably shit more than the horses if you saw what we spend on them... I know I do on occasion.
Used to race superbikes too... Know how to make a million dollars doing that?... Start with two million.![]()
I hate that shit. Really do. The one thing that divides us in the middle of the one thing that unifies us. Who gives af about what you've got? I've owned a "small" tech dev firm for 20 years. Know what I ride? How about how many acres over 100 are under my feet? But I'm just a hippie living in the woods. What the fuck would I know.
But if your costs are $50oz then you're doing it wrong.
Wasn't bragging about what I have, or what I've done. Sorry if it came across that way... Was just eluding (again) to the fact that I don't mind spending money on things that make me happy.
Honestly, haven't figured out my actual costs since (past) I had to factor in payroll for trimmers.
But my power bill has gone up considerably since firing these lights up again... And soil prices are about double what I used to pay.
That’s what I expect. I think because cannabis is such an “of the people thing” the little guy doing his thing will always have a seat next to the big money company.Up here in Canada they are getting better... not so much the big guys but the mid size.
I agree, a buddy of mine said: Lot's of big corporations & $$ into cannabis. I told him we O.G. types will help each other thrive to our desires and hearts content. Been an entrepreneur most of my life, in Houston I had a cleaning service, pet & home sitting service called Thepetbutlers, Houston shopping valets, before Uber. Now I can work privately with a few O.G. guys who are helping me advance as I am a Certified Master Gardener with 4 years in Agriculture in high school. We "so called" little guys will be just fine.
