MMPR Grow op: Small Scale

Also the best way for LP's to over charge patients for meds, only in a new form, concentrates. I'm being facetious btw, I know we're speaking in terms of consistent dosage. But if they are wayyyyyy over charging on flowers how do you think concentrates will go? Especially after having to purchase more equipment and build a new add on to facilities to process them in.

Can patients REALLY afford $120-$150/g concentrates? Because the CC pricing hovers around $60-$100/g currently. Just a whole other bad can of worms that doesn't need opening or dealing with in regards to LP's even getting in the concentrates game.
I raised the same concern in another thread...

most concentrates are made from the left overs so how can they justify the huge price? if i take a pound of crap I am going to throw out and make 40 grams of great oil, does that mean i should charge $100/g? if they use bud/flower, i guess I could see it but huge prices but for scraps??
when i was growing up, most growers threw this stuff out...now it's pure gold??

I think one could turn the common kush on the commercial market into purified(mold and pesticide filtered) oil and sell it for around $20-$30/g

Thats just it, LP's are selling the stuff the BM wouldn't sell. And they're people out there that will buy the popcorn, so why would they charge less for oil?

The thing is tho...more and more people are using primo bud to make the concentrates. A buddy of my mine buys his weed and turns it straight into what they call wax for his vape pen and he wont smoke anything else. Period. Kids...lol

All my friends on the recreational side are big into health, fitness and good eating - they're all strictly using bubble hash instead of green.
I personally only ever have bubble hash anymore as well - cleaner, faster, easier (for me).

Bud works great, but you can do the same thing with shake at 1/10 the cost.

Itsme.
True....but whaddya do when the shake runs out?

Do the math though and it really isnt that much more expensive. An oz will make about 4grs of bho and it takes me about the same amount of time to smoke both. The bho is so much more potent .... smoke way less...

6 of one and half a dozen of the other....really

Bubble hash is hands down my favourite,so flavourful and only a couple of bots to achieve the desired effect.I only get her out on weekends though..Most people in my circle only smoke concentrates.

Seems like everybody's into dabs and concentrates these days. I'm joint man myself. I enjoy the whole smoking process, not looking to be super stoned after one or two hits.
I find joints to smokie now, three or four puffs and I'm smoked out. Single dab, will do ya, never disappointed with the effect, easy to regulate dose. Lasts for hrs. Joints have become more a social thing, but I concentrate 90% of the time now. Even converted the wife to a vape pen. Flowers are for special occasions now,

Itsme.

Got an interesting letter from HC, after an extensive review of our application for the LP application, they have re-opened our file????? WTF...4 months ago they denied it because there were too many houses within 1km, and wouldn't respond to our calls. Guess I'm back in it, milled, iratiated, and blasted $10 grams coming to a mail box near you.

Not getting my hopes too high, wouldn't be the first time I got the rug pulled from beneath me by those fuckers!

personally I like terpenoids with my cannabinoids, so naturally I prefer to vape flowers..
I love my Solo vaporizer, makes all flavors no matter if bitter or smooth taste the same and smooth. I got a wholesale account to a gear wholesaler last week and didn't realize how much money stores are making on vaporizers. Gonna be interesting to see what happens when I price them lol. Maybe stir things up and offer super discounts to LP users on vaporizers if they send me proof or LP purchase. There's a local shop here and even if I under cut them by $50 on some vaporizers I'll still be making some crazy profit.
