As long as you don't speed and your car doesn't stand out (beat up, dark tints, non-working lights) you won't have a problem, especially on Sunday afternoon/early evening. I have family in CT and go back and forth from MA regularly.

been dealing with the flown in stuff for awhile now.2016 was bad up here in new england, last year was better. its tough dealing with the people that the price is the only thing that matters.

some finally see an come back when they notice the high is no where near the same. or they get burned by shitty stuff, mold, mail intercepting, this or that person gets busted for mailing. some break in the chain.

or one shipment is good then the next 2 are bunk. some learn some dont.

some of the times the weed wouldn't be accepted where it was grown. failed tests due to insecticide or mold presence.

the good stuff stays an the shit gets shipped. some will see the difference when they start getting headaches.

things are only gonna get tougher. becoming a better grower will be our only edge. being efficient on quality an yield so u can keep your price within a competitive distance.

wish i was where i am now 5 years ago.

I haven’t really noticed. All of my clients are ppl lookin for quality. So they don’t give the shipped in stuff any attention. They always tell me stories of their friend's bud...and we laugh! Lol. But I'm not getting rid of elbows either. Just zips and below. I will say that finding good, reliable clients is getting harder than actually growing A+ bud. They are out there though...it’s all about marketing in this day n age.

Im wondering what variables will bring the prices back up
All the stuff i seen from cali is b- or even c grade
Most of the stuff i seen is dense buds with a little scent to it but nothing with the wow factor
Cali is dumping there trash out here
And it needs to slow down

No effect here. But that's cause of the natives bringing beasters across the river by the ton. I can't grow it fast enough, cause not to sound boastful, but there's nothing like what I grow around where I live. The few guys that do grow stuff like mine, either keep it for themselves, or it stays in their ultra small circle.

Most people that don't know me and see my stuff or get to smoke it, think it's coming from CO or CA. Kid that works with my oldest daughter, told her the GSC she had(Forum Cut buds) was fake, lol. "GSC doesn't turn purple, and besides that it won't grow around here, we don't have the right climate" . That's what he actually said to her, lol. I told her to tell him he has no idea what he's talking about. Then to google GSC Forum Cut and show him the pics of buds that look exactly like what's in my daughters hand.
