Might be a good idea to post up a GanjaTrader on here?Cause I can't find shit on BT or WL.
Honestly claw i know where your coming from but screw those dispensary buyers that try to bullshit and lowball you,tell them 'grow your own then' or buy from some kid growin in mommys closet or backyard,topshelf rarely comes from there.I beleive if dispensaries are gonna sell weed they should also be responsible for the quality of it and if there are chemicals or bugs present they should be sued for providing a harmful product for human consumption,even a contractor that does work on an inantimate object has to be bonded and insured but SOME dispensaries think they can just do anything that makes them a buck to the public with no repercussions.
Consignment is a joke,Are dispensaries willing to fill out a credit application and let me lien their personal property to protect my investment?Thats what i have to do if i want a loan to expand/build my business,why should they be any different?
As a dispensary you are either legit or your black market.
Legit=non profit,insured,above board,everything in the open and on the table,legitimate suppliers who grow a clean product,care about the community.
Blackmarket=For profit,under the table,everything on the down low,get the product from whoever will bring you the highest return on investment,sell to whoever has the cash.
I think almost all the dispensaries fall into the blackmarket category unfortunately,im sure there are exceptions but they are the minority.
Took some advice from here and started knocking on doors, but it aint easy dealing with certain personalites doing the buying at dispensaries. They all start off with consignment bullshit then move into " its flooded out there ", followed by leave a sample and we'll get back to you. My last batch I paid to have lab tested myself so its certified clean and I have always grown full organic, no BS, but its getting to point where even Im considering turning to the darkside and pumping up the yield with PGRs. I would mosdef be able to compete in this lowball market if I could comfortably lower my price 25%. Kind of like an athlete who has to turn to steroids to compete or get outta the game. No matter how good u are naturally u cant survive against chemistry no matter how dangerous .
Lol so its ok for someone who's illegal to come run down my wages take jobs from me, but its not ok for someone too grow weed cheaper than you....lmfao. welcome too the real Fucking world. Grow big or go home.
First off you should switch to a vertical system that will increase yields per watt by at least 25% probably more. Then look into Aptus products they are expensive but the results I've seen are the first time ever a nutrient additive has really done something amazing. Buds at 5 weeks look like normal buds at 9 weeks, and the finished plants with Aptus juice are just unbelievably huge and healthy. I never before Aptus saw a bubba kush cola the size of a soda can. High yielding strains will pump out footballs. Vertical with aptus could possibly increase yields per watt by 50% more than you're pulling with horizontal reflectors and standard nutrients, like 3.5 pounds per 1000w light no problem. The catch is you might have to run more plants than you are comfortable with.
You gotta love capitalism eh? The "profit motive" has the last word.........1/8 in a Michigan dispensery $50 for the mid grade medicine!! Never over $60 for "hammer time" herb.........wish I knew what they pay a gardener for a #! There may be other michigoonies on here that'd know that.....@ $2000/lb. That'd be around $13.21 in cost. They must have a good union!!! Dental and the whole 9!too bad the clubs rip us off still at $60 a 1/8th....these clubs are out of hand on their prices....they are paying approx $15 per 1/8th....whats that a 300% markup.....rediculous.....
shit some of the employees are making bank like 20$ an hour just for bud tendingThe question I'd love to see an answer to is how much are dispenseries PAYING THEIR EMPLOYEES??? Are any publically traded? :eek:
