Dispensary cannabis

Forgive me if this is a stupid question but I am truly ignorant to the legal market and its growing practices. My brother keeps getting bud from random head shops here in NY and every single one (He's tried maybe 20+ strains) just smells like chemical pine sol. I love pine and lemon smell but this doesn't smell like a good chem but it does smell like chemicals in an industrial way. Just wondering what the common denominator in these nugs are and if it is a form un additive/spray to make up for lack of terps? Just trying to gain some knowledge.
I doubt the head shops are selling real flowers, maybe some of that synthetic looking shit I saw being sold at a local gas station. They were pre-rolls in plastic tubes much like they sell in dispensaries, but labeling looked very off-putting and weird.

I've been pleasantly surprised with the quality of the weed at my local D's. It took about a year after legalization but three have popped up near me since. 100~130 bux Canadian for an ounce. I always find the grass to be tasty and prices are still coming down as the compition ramps up by the look of it, we'll see I guess..I gotta say I do prefer the hand trimmed buds to the mechanical trimmed stuff but I've learned to luv it:bigjoint:

I live in MA, a legal state, have never spent 1 cent in a dispensary, I'm a outdoor grower, one big ass ton of work grow ev. year, I put it out to 6 tight bros on the cheap,lasts all year, outdoor grass lives a lot longer than rushed indoor, it's def. not as pretty but I always say would you want wine from grapes grown inside in sterile conditions that were harvested in half the time of outdoor grapes? the twists and turns in the weather are what gives the terps IMO.Like I said outdoor not as pretty to the eye, and as a outdoor grower you can only get out of the plant what nature will give, I can't count the times that I wished for one or two more weeks of rainless weather or less humidity(BUD ROT). so you never get perfect conditions, but i think full term outdoor weed where the plant flowers when the days shorten by only minute intervals has more character and taste than weed grown strictly 18-6 then 12-12 flip that is the indoor standard.

Wait. Your buying your weed from a head shop? Like not a dispensary. I withdraw my statement.
I will only smoke what I grow. Bro is buying it and I am trying to get him to stop. I don't grow nearly enough to supply him or else I would. And yeah because there are no legal dispos yet gas stations and headshops have been selling "stickers".

Lmfao. That’s why. Your smoking bs. I’d stop pronto before someone “accidentally” chews someone’s face off.

Nah NY. I keep telling him to go back to our old plug that grew but he likes how cheap it is. You can lead a horse to water...

I’ve bought some decent dispo weed in OK. I’m not there a lot but usually pick up an mix and match Oz for $80 bucks for variety. Every now and again you can get into something really great.

I bought small amounts of flower, wax, and shatter, from a few MA dispos a few years ago. Definitely had some OK flower, and some very nice extracts here and there. The flower... had a few that floored me initially, but I always seemed to build tolerance super fast. Also, back to paying $60 an eighth and maybe really enjoying it but maybe being kinda "Eh?" No thonx.

Truth be told I do think my outdoor flower is, in general, better than the dispo herb I've smoked. Only thing I find annoying is I can't smoke that much of it without getting floored, again and again (TBF I've got a handful of options so I'm always mixing it up).

This week I felt like trying some new strains from my local dispo. Hell Og 25%, medium to mild strength and didn’t last too long. Animal face 26%, I’m not a Sativa guy, but I figured I’d try it. Medium to mild strength as well. Lasted longer than Hell OG. The last was Citral Glue 30%, also a Sativa. Much better potency, lasted much longer. I was pretty satisfied with the strength as I should be claiming 30%.

I dunno where I got the idea FL dispos don't sell flower, but... they do.
I heard that as well, or at least had that impression. I recall people describing like weird k-cups of weed that you had to rip open or something when they first went legal.

If you don't smoke much and aren't the weed equivalent of a beer or wine snob, dispensary weed is probably great. I'm a snob though so meh. You can't hit the quality mark when producing en mass for the lowest cost. Even the best grown gets pretty destroyed in packaging and handling, by the time it hits the consumer its just blah.

Dispo weed sucks, period.

I you can not grow better than what they are offering you should stop growing.
