@soserthc1 ok so i just called and a female told me they cannot discuss anything for the phone. theyre a shop that sells flowers too. in all honesty, shops like tlc, who can be super legit, are basically offering a storefront for patients to secure products from other collectives. vendors come in and drop off everything from flowers to edibles to vape pens. this almost always includes plants or clones too. the reason being is that it takes a massive grow to have a wide variety with moms on rotation. also, you must consider that a dispensary is NOT a grow room. so they buy a few trays and hope to unload them before they go bad.
all marijuana dispensaries typically buy from cannabis nurseries at a wholesale rate and resell at a retail rate in their shops. TLC is not band of breeders, now if they employed some growers who grew some herb for them inhouse, that's another story. every flower grower will take cuttings to perpetuate a grow and they can easily take extras so that a shop can sell them. that's an "inhouse" grow, but it's based off the growers not the business.
dispensaries are fundamentally different than cannabis nurseries. marijuana shops have massive overhead so the pricing is inflated so that patients get the experience of shopping somewhere physical. with all this said, i really like shops. i wish they were still legal. i would go to them often and buy edibles and 8ers of my favorite buds.
ive been in too many though that have sad clones that look like bonzi trees so stressed out from not being in a nursery. no remark i made was negative about TLC ill repeat as to not ruffle feathers of whomever on this forum.
im not going to drive all the way to a place just to see if they even have clones. the girl couldnt even tell me if they had anything in stock, imagine how stupid of me to drive there and they have nothing or limited inventory. the plants might be great, but theyre hard to get w/o committing to a drive.
most people wanna ask questions first.
