Guys IMO it's a clickbait title in a way, yes you got an oz of something but what is that something? Yes it's the cannabis however, I think many of us on this forum would not smoke such low quality almost hemp like cannabis... At least I hope not...

Barely any crystals on that photo you shown me man, like I said I don't care about total weight only the weight of what matters, the trichomes.
not exactly true- we have bought weed in hawaii that looked like travis-green (not a good look), and it was ass-kickin... but... if u wanta sell me weed and one bud is dripping tricomes, and the other ain't, i'll always go for the drippin...

Assuming both varieties have visible trichrome I would let my nose pick which one I chose.

Bag appeal is overrated. Not knocking a beautiful bud. But I do all my judging midway through a fat joint. How high does it get me, does it taste great, does the flavor improve as the joint burns.... followed by how long until I want to smoke more, was the high enjoyable, does it keep getting me high if I smoke more, is it just as good every time I smoke it or does it lose its appeal.

Definitely true there is some triched out weed that tastes like cardboard.

But there is a margin to this, this weed does not compare.

I think it's more WHO you sell to than WHAT you are selling. The people who go to the dispensary and look for deals are a totally different client than I have.

I sit at the bar at Sullivans, Tommy Bahamas or Eddie V's and I watch those rich fucks spend $300 and $400 on a bottle of wine like it's 20 cents. 4 figure dinner checks are common here. And, for a table of 4, each person gets about 2 glasses of wine for that price.

So, I sit out in the parking lot and when the guy comes out I blow smoke his way and he stops and says, "Wow, that smells good". I invite him to join me and before the joint is finished, he is reaching in his wallet.

I sell mine for $350 an eighth or $100 for 2 joints. They pay that like it's spare change.

Then, they get into their Bentley or Rolls and head up to Bighorn to their 5 million dollar home.

My pot is pretty good but I don't think I would get that price from poor people. LOL

I have always felt that it was WHO you sell to. And, that goes for most products, not just pot. I used to sell hammers and toilet seats to the government. I always got a higher price than the private sector market. :)

Thats funny. I always figured I would do better business if all my friends were not all growers and musicians with the same circle of people. But thar would require meeting new people and growing weed for this long has lowered my tolerance for meeting new people.

I'm just glad people can grow without worry of legal problems. And while I wish the prices stayed higher I am still amused by the fact everyone has plenty of weed. Good weed, free weed, indoor, outdoor..... sure is an improvement from 30 years ago when your connect would be out and nobody in town knew when more was going to be around. And when it did arrive you hoped it was good. But certainly didn't expect it to be.

Another Marjuana Connoisseur. Tell me, why would I make a click-bait post, genius? I'm just a guy on here like you. But I really admire your ability to judge good weed just by reading about it and seeing a couple photos- truly amazing. I bet you're fun at parties too.

I am a marijuana connoisseur. And, a wine connoisseur. And, a food connoisseur. And, a pussy connoisseur.

Each one has it's own special place but all of them must have an abundant bouquet, a smooth feel when sampled and a taste that explodes in your mouth at precisely the right moment.

It is a better life when you are a connoisseur.

Especially that pussy part. ;)

I am a connoisseur, self proclaimed that is, I've seen too much snake-oil over the years I'm done sugarcoating stuff.

Clearly says shake, which is just groud up leafs these days, maybe 5% thc at the most.

Commercial snakeoil has made it into the cannabis industry captivating the ''deal seeking'' consumer, really sad because it ruins the market as a whole becausr the bad stuff gets cheaper and the better stuff gets more expensive. So in the end, nobody wins.

I think I am done discussing here and will unwatch this so no more notifications come through, I will say this, if you are a true grower you know the value of really good herb and that some rare herb does not produce a lot, just like some exotic rare fruits do etc. You get what you pay for in life.

Boon's Farm?

Yeah... take tons of decent grapes and squeeze the juice out of them. Then take all those stems, seeds, leaves and other bits left over and add a bunch of water. Simmer for a while, add super cheap sugars and yeasts then ferment.

Definite reasons why you get headaches. ;)
