I dont smoek or care about it but mass production to meet demand tends to be what lowers cost, right now weed is still niche and a lot of people dont really care, so main benefit is not going to jail, but I would assume smokers would just stick to their existing plugs rather than even mess with smoke shops.

That’s just gonna lead to trash weed which is already happening. There are states where it’s only a few companies who own all the licenses. So we are already seeing the results of major companies being involved. When it’s federally legal now we’ll have even bigger companies involved, like huge private equity, etc. it’s gonna get even worse

The best and cheapest will always be underground with the way this country operates. They had a chance to give all the dope boys an opportunity go legal instead they gave it to corporate cacs and Armenians.

Yes, we need a company with a large investment it make it legit cheaper.

It's not worth the infrastructure investments at this stage and then if it does ever become Federally legal you then begin to question what's in the product like anything else mass produced in the USA.

I can bet money the moment it becomes federally legal all the Major Tobacco companies already have everything on deck to flood the streets lol

Is the argument quality or price? Because broke nikkas take what they can get in this country if we being real lol. Avg person "weed aint that serious" to them so getting shyt one off on some tourist sht in cities its legal is just some vacation tricking to them. Like I said the "purist" who were getting it in before it became legal, I would assume their networks are still the same, or are you arguing the weed man is taxing too? I guess my question is if you are a vet why are you going to some shops that are tourist traps.

The amount of money people spent on weed is wild.

During tough times is when you got to think what you could have done with that cash instead.

The demand for flower with nothing in it is too high hopefully. If they just come with weed cigarettes that's not it.

Im not saying they are making a hybrid these are multinationals who can sell anything, im saying the tobacco companies are likely the ones who would rush in and boss up the market as theh already have a base of smokers they can sell more shyt to

Like i said im not a smoker but i always figured the vets would just stick to how they always got weed. These shops as i mentioned seem to be for tourist and casuals not actual locals who been doing it before it was legal

Big weed head here. I thought making it legal would make it cheaper but it doesn't. The taxes on the weed make it slightly more expensive than when it was illegal.
I think I don't like that it's legal now. lol
Depends on the state and if you got recreational. You can get an ounce for $27 in Colorado.

We smoking the same shyt everyone else is
Nah. I grew up on east coast weed, moved to LA for 12 years. West coast weed and the cannabis industry is decades ahead in terms of quality, how the weed is cured, the products, etc.

There’s a whole established premium cannabis concentrates market that the east coast is just being introduced to.

The legal weed in NYC dried out mid and your street weed is sprayed and yall think that’s okay for some reason

Delivery services are the way to go to for Tree.

All off them are basically wholesalers. Being doing this since 2019. Best way to buy bud.

Just look up, your location on here. And and read the reviews, they are very accurate. And you can tell the real reviews from the fake ones.

Great!!!! Bring down those prices and the quality. California really showed me how NY and NJ are robbing people charging a whole lot of money for shytty weed.


And with that said, the black market is overcharging too.
