Plus!.. nobody is really buying. Too many Dispo's, Growers, and not enough patient card holders. We have 1 Dispo for every 1000 population.... that's just not sustainable. Big city's like OKC or Tulsa is a bit more diluted because there's more people, but still, it's ridiculous.

HOE. LEE. COW. ... well, we're seeing about the same. Gonna be a tough year. 2021 was the first year I had to go knock on doors to sell product. From 2018 to then, we couldn't make it fast enough, and money was not really talked about. We just said "It's $2400 a lb"... I had one guy ask for a bulk discount... I was like "Sorry, no... how many you want?"...."I'll take 5"
I'm just a grower who paid for a caregiver card. Was allowed to sell all my organic overages to the dispensaries or co-ops. Legal and no more. Still Charging $250 the cards and address collection. No sales without an insane non refundable application fee. Then the actual fees, surety, bonding, property and regulation conformityYou can grow and possess here. Go to prison for life if you don't meet the states financial shakedown to defend Canada's Chinese Canibus investors and donors. Messed up stuff man. Hope you see our foe. It is not us. LOL.

I'm seeing $50 dollars and ounce for Bodhi Gear in larger cities in MI. And $70 a quarter ounce in the outskirts. It's insane. Glad I grow my own and outdoors. Sorry. Cowboys like me are hurting your profits. Man the greed is screwing all with denim in the dresser drawers. View attachment 5100937
Still getting $150 an ounce here on the Eastern side, but we have no "dispensarys" around in our county, so the "black market" is still in play over here. People don't want to drive 50-60 miles to buy commercial weed, they are still paying for "homegrown" We just aren't seeing bulk sales, it's a half O here, an ounce there. I got rid of the last of what I was going to from last years outdoor run last week. Got a jumpstart on this year, clones will be hardy when the weather breaks, and will have an indoor crop ready around the 4th of July, so I'll be able to take advantage of the dry season.

That's what sucks about Commercial ops... everybody wants to buy a QP at a time, and that takes forever to move 25-27 elbows. You gotta knock on a lot of doors. You might get 1 out of 15 contacts that will buy something.

2019.. hell, we'd get 7 lb orders and while I was delivering one order, Paige was delivering another, we'd get another call in order and be out, and they'd be pissed, and even send us hate texts and emails.

All your dispenses are buying out the backdoor because they can't keep legal financial balances and black market is cheaper.

I grew 1 plants and my biggest expense was the trimming. A pound or 2 fresh and a meal with beverages for 15 trimmed. Was legal. I say gift now.

I here ya, when you have that much to move, and people only want to buy a smidgin here and there, it makes it hard. I'm just a little fish, and don't produce enough but once a year to pay the states fees for licensing, and we don't have any dispensary that's close, so I can make a few extra dollars like I have been for what seems like a lifetime, LOL
My little indoor re-start will have my clones good and ready for good weather here, and I'll have a small crop ready when it's the "dry" season.
Hopefully things get better for you this year, hold your ground, and let the others fall to the waste side, and hopefully you can pick up some more equipment on the cheap, FB around here has been littered with equipment from people who didn't understand that you just can't buy a light and plop a seed, then magically you get buds, it takes a bit of work.
Your crop looks awesome once again by the way!!!!!!!!!!!!

I hope we don’t get the drop in price y’all are experiencing in Mississppi. We just went medical and they don’t start issuing licenses until June 3rd. I’ve been working all weekend on ruffing in plumbing for our grow. The problem I see with our law is that a depo is 40k for the first year and 25k there after. We may have to open a depo ourselves to keep our product moving.

That's kinda how it went here. Fees are still cheap, but those that went vertical are doing better that those Dispo's that did not....another reason pricing is down, they can make thier own inventory. Just a small part of why it's crashed here. Allowing 25% out of State ownership, no lic. caps, canopy limits... it's the Wild West man.

We should not have the same flooded market as y’all have had. I know the state is planning to be very stringent on all aspects of the business. I would be surprised if we have 150 licensed growers by this time next year. Our moronic law allows each county, city or municipality to “opt out” of the licensed MMJ business so a large group already have. I believe we will end up with half the city’s with dispensary’s.

That would be good for your market! We were up to 9800 grows, I thinks it's back down to 8100 or something like that. Crazy.

Looking good!!!!!!!!!!
Too bad we don't have smell-o-vision!!!!!!!!!!
Not my proudest run... those damn NukeHeads genetics suck!... but!.. I found 1 mother. of Lemon can that I like. Next run should be epic. Gonna run fewer plants, pay more attention to training, get back to the basics, and maybe explore Coco in my Mother tent once the new inventory is in the main room.
Cant see all of it, but thats 12 wires hanging. ... and we have about 2/3rds of a tray to chop tomorrow morning. Gonna have to dry them in the grow room because we ran out of room there... which i've never done before, so.. maybe it'll be ok.
