Just a note on pot prices. In 1986 the street price of pot (Mass) was $350/ounce average and was (anywhere) from 10 to 30% "stick and seed". Now consider what $350 would buy back then and increase that to todays buying power.
A good guess would be around 3 or 4 times 350. Yes, prices of pot are falling. On my last trip to Washington state, my average price/ounce was $89 for 6 ounces. The lowest was under 50/ounce and the highest was 130. Previous years prices were 30% higher.
I have bought a few ounces in the last 6 months for $42/ounce. The pot stores I bought from had an average of 4 employees on a Saturday aft. Business is good and prices are still falling. One store had 9 employees and a line of ten waiting.
Hard to believe that Richard Nixon started a war on pot that ruined families and imprisoned people for years. A drug that helps folks with epilepsy.
I talked with a person who had epilepsy since childhood. He said several drugs were tried over the years, but none were effective. Pot stopped all seizures and he's been free of them since. He's 22 years old now, and a very happy dude. Pot removed a heavy burden he had since early childhood.
This is just the beginning of what pot can help us to live better lives. Big Pharma has been the biggest opponent to the legalization of pot.
Expect that that to change. When all states legalize pot big pharma will find a way to capitalize on pot. Expect all kinds of products promising relief from whatever ails you.
Some of those products will make the same kind of promises as some YouTube meditation videos (99% of you will fall asleep in 3 minutes etc.) Big Pharma will be big liars making claims like "snake oil" con artists. No change on that issue.
MI just has crap weed!!!! I live in wisconsin and go to MI every month and spend about $1200! which is insane that i smoke that much. but the quality just isnt that good! I'd rather buy a $250-$300 OZ of some skunky dank herb VS the mid-low grade $100oz stuff i get in MI!! I do like the east side alchemy though
Because Distillate Extract(Vape/Dabs) Is Healthier And Better Across The Board Easy… (Less People want traditional flower and want better quality and Healthier Vape)
If you grow outside you don't need the lighting you don't need the watering you don't need the heat you don't need the.. so if you grow outside you don't have to worry about all that all you have to worry about is chemical and soil. And watering
It’s a plant! It should’ve never been that expensive, even $110 an oz is insane try 40 bucks if that. They all bought into scarcity now watch as growing thyme or cilantro is more profitable 😂
1 gram of wax at the store is 45-90$ in my state… Or you can get 1 OZ of wax for 180$ off the street. Keep lowering them prices stores or u will NEVER keep up
I live in Humboldt County. Yes there were some greedy growers, but all we did by voting in prop 64 was hand it all over to our greedy government. Weed growers used to put money back into our local economy while Govt is doing nothing but sucking out of the economy with regulating & over-regulating. You can't even call what they're doing legalization. The only thing you can call it is regulation. Ive watched friends go out of business and lose everything- having to sell their farms. I won't support a dispensary unless I have to. The Govt wonders why the black market weed biz is still thriving. The Gov is doing it to themselves. Once the Gov figured out a way to monetize it, it was all over.
What an absolutely insane piece that should be relegated to a discussion about marketing principals. Marijuana, whether it be medical or recreational, or both, is a free-market economy in itself. It is unique in several ways. As a medicine, in MOST instances cannot be prescribed as a medication in the normal sense. Due to government regulations and ignorance, it is relegated to being an uncontrollable pestilence. Absolutely NO MEDICAL VALUE!!!! NONE!!! Enough about that. Since marijuana hit the various markets, it became a "cash and carry" commodity. ABSOLUTELY no DEBIT OR CREDIT CARD TRANSACTIONS. Then, slowly changes were instituted, but it HAD to be cash from an ATM. In regular sequence, more people, some better than most and many NOT so talented, started growing. Big bucks were the target because everyone knew what it goes for on the street, so why not a store? Stores cost money. Equipment in the store costs money. Help to run the business cost money. And so on. Here comes more growers. More product on the shelves. Hold-ups become more common. Prices need to come down to appease buyers. There is still room for "boutique" strains, and it is a good niche to aim for, but be realistic. The old "hay days" are over for the most part. Quality branding is becoming more important to consumers, even those on a budget.
Cannabis prices were too high to begin with you shouldn't be paying more than about $50 an ounce for it anyway 200 plus dollars an ounce that's just raping
Street prices are as following don't over pay any more peeps boycott them a nickle is 5.00 dollar and a dime is 10.00 and eight is 15.00 and quarter is 20.00 half is 30.00 and oz is 50. If your paying more they stealing from you ….
Illinois 8th = 60$ Mich. 8th = 20$ it's just a weed of government GREED , tax them apples 🍎
Haha. Not no more. I bought a oz for $29.
So is this a rhetorical question or is someone fucking stupid?
Thc % does not make the weed better or worse. Its the terps. Do the research.
Grow six and never step into a dispensary, ever!
Flash from the past 1974 walking the barracks there's a man rolling marijuana on the table duffle bag full for 25.00 love Korea 1974 😎🎄🎄🎄🎄🎄🎄🎄

Well, the markup on weed was 10x what it cost to grow it.
WHY? WHERE???? Oh…sigh….Michigan. Nuts. In moving across country, for us, an ounce went from $100 to $300 for the same product. 😟 DISTRIBUTION.

Don't smoke and drive the life you save might be yours

Cuz its easy to produce
Never stop growing fk the talmud satanic government…. Norway is fkd up the only place where you get three years for hash …
I'm sorry 300$ a quarter pound needs to be stander

Stop calling it marijuana it’s cannabis
Answer: because its a damn weed. Thats why its called weed.
Because people don’t want to pay the ridiculous state taxes!
It’s a plant! It should’ve never been that expensive, even $110 an oz is insane try 40 bucks if that. They all bought into scarcity now watch as growing thyme or cilantro is more profitable 😂

I live in Indiana and I wish you could get an ounce here for $109 let alone $200
If the groweries keep aiming for quantity over quality, people will get quality on their own, reducing income for the businesses.
280 for an oz is a rip off !! Even $200 is a rip off
Anything that grows out of the ground ought to be free. 😂😂😂
Nothing good happens when the government gets involved in anything let along Pot
Cheaper than dirt when you grow your own

It's hard to sell a $2,000/ lb. The state should be able to pay off its debt.
