We're "making the rounds" in the Hollywood/West LA area tomorrow. I will visit 6 dispensaries and buy a couple grams at each one of their "top shelf". I'm anticipating a sad trip.

lame... is your dream outdoor and the 12.8 indoor?
No. Both indoor. Mine tested out higher than anything they had on the shelves. Still no go.

I've gotten rid of some of it already at other spots, but getting rid of this blue dream is way more difficult than I thought. These clubs aren't even asking for a price. They just see blue dream and automatically don't want it. When someone does want it, price isn't an issue, they'll pay whatever. It's just that every dispensary is either stocked up on blue dream outdoor still, or just don't want to carry the strain. This may require a trip to LA :(

Yeah. Apparently it is now required to have cherry pie and/or girl scout cookies in 2012.

This reminds me of trainwreck in humboldt a couple years ago. They've got amazing wreck up there, but if you ask anyone they all say "ewwww. trainwreck. so sick of that".

I need to do a better job keeping up with the latest fads.

funny, every one I know says they are going to grow 100% blue dream outdoor but never does.
Iv been told all the stories from all the clubs how chronic hydro BD is $2400 but they can get me $1800 for mine lol.

It will always be one of the top out flavors. Mine tested at 20% outs and never have issue having to much BD.

next year was thinking cheese, cookies, blue wreak, OB and bubba, 3 kings.

O and I got some panama red seeds.

Alright so what am i supposed to grow? I'm so confused. The original plan was to hunt down blue dream...but apparently thats a bad idea. Guess I'm just gonna have to walk into some places in LA and see what's "top shelf"
 
Just reading all the responses these couple of weeks in these threads, it seems doing you're research on the latest fads and taking a visit to these dispensaries really proves to be the best thing you can do. I have two strains I'm growing right now and about to harvest in about three-four weeks. But before I even try to sell it, I'm going to take a visit to at least 5-10 dispensaries in the areas to check out top shelf, prices, etc.

It's extremely profitable, IF you have someone who will buy it.

But yes. If you don't, you should probably try something different.

I used to do this, but not anymore. If you do this you'll always be one step behind everyone. You'll find a "top shelf strain" that's really popular in dispensaries, then go find clones, do a cycle, trim, cure, etc and by the time you're ready to take it in, it ends up being 4-5 months later and by then it's everywhere. Then you're just one person out of several hundred all trying to sell the same thing at the same time.

You don't want what is "top shelf" right now. You want what is going to be top shelf 4 months from now.

What you really want to grow is something you're not seeing in dispensaries. Find a strain with extremely high bag appeal that yields and smells and tastes good. If you can get a strain that has all of that, you'll do good. If you find a strain with all of that + high thc, then you've found the next top shelf strain. But usually strains like that are created, not found.

Basically, take all the choices of strains that are obvious to you, and throw them all out. Then start your search.

I agree with all of that. Although trying to keep up with the latest fads is exhausting at best (but I try).

Visit those dispensaries. Find the bud in that is comparable to yours. Then ask for 50% of what they are retailing it for.

Fair markup is 100%. If a buyer tries to get you to sell for much less than that, then he's trying to take advantage of you IMO. (and yes, most buyers will try and take advantage of you). I'll come down on that asking price if the club is buying other products from me as well or wanting multiple packs, but if you're just going in their to vend one pack, then that's what you should be getting.

I'm buddies with the local hydro shop, they try to push new strains on me all the time. Cherry pie was one of them, They pushed so hard I ended up taking 40 cherry pie clones from them knowing I wouldn't use them! They all just died! Seems almost everyday they are swearing by a new strain some customer is asking for or brought in!

IMO, Blue dream will never get old! She has been and always will be my biggest momma! I cant even give some clones away (see previous post I just let 40 cherry pie die) but the 150-200 she gives me every 2 weeks have no problem finding homes. I even flowered my pineapple chunk and LSD momma's, no one wanted it.IMG_1221.jpgIMG_1092.jpg
