It's the CLUBS not the GROWERS!!!

[Thundurkel]

It's the clubs who are greedy folks! I am just baffled by how low weed is going for right now but yet all the clubs are still selling top shelf for $50-$60 a 8th but say they are paying no more than $1600 a lb!!!! Last year folks bitched saying that us growers are greedy and not compassionate how about having compassion for those growing your fucking medicine! Thanks clubs you have ruined my legal income and many others who can't compete in this Wal Mart style take over of warehouse growers and clubs that rip off growers only to make 3x what they paid for.....

[SicKSKills]

im glad someone else is putting this out there, kinda tired of being called greedy when these fools are scamming the public abroad. don't really understand how people are paying full 2006 retail when all you hear about on the street is how much meds value is hitting rock bottom.

 

[FistedSister]

beats buying fake blow

 

[supermanlives]

its a free market adapt or perish.

 

[resinryder]

Growers just refuse to sale to them until they either meet your price or lower theirs. They won't have a business without product.

 

[supermanlives]

the med clubs do tend to take advantage of the people that need it most. join a few sample , leave sample with customers pre screened by club and rock on .those in the know get 32 min

I am in a fairly new medical market and have seen some steep price drops as well. Only thing you can do is produce more and make sure your shit is top shelf so its always sells no matter what. Step your game up, don't hate on the guys busting out warehouses, that is your competition so you should try and compete. Evolve with the market and figure out ways to step up your production.

1600 a bow seems like it would have to be dirt. your saying 1600 for real quality?

 

[supermanlives]

i feel sorry for those that need medicinal mj and are being raked over the coals . my suggestion is to grow your own or avoid the middleman somehow

 

[bigdrov1x]

1600 a pound seems like it would be almost too low for top shelf indoor grown medicine. Maybe for outdoor or greenhouse grown meds? I would think that the cost of electricity and nutes and time would make that an impossible price for indoor grown top shelf meds.

Yeah, that is why we got HB-1284 and HB-1043.
Some of the excess from your state didn't like the competition from local caregivers.
I keep telling my patients that it is not all that hard to grow your own. I even offer to pot it for them and make it an ammended soil so they just add water.
Still, too much work/concern for most people. We are a convieninece society, and the clubs/dispensaries know that (or at least the ones making a profit), a lot in Colorado are finding out it is not the "get rich quick" scheme they thought it would be.
99% of the people who bitch about how expensive it is, don't need it to cure their cancer. They don't mind paying $300/mo in phone and cable bills though.
People are always going to bitch, but the Econ 101 rule will always apply.
The price of anything is what someone is willing to pay for it!

OP,

now is an excellent time to use technology to cut out our middle men


if we had online patient circles we could do grower direct...

my good friend and I were thinking about starting a growers collective and selling medicine priced reasonably in light of new laws.

anyone on board to entertain this idea with me?


GROWERS DIRECT sounds catchy don't it? i'd be there all day..only problem is there would be a club down the street that would buy yours and just hike up the price =\


I look at weed maps making 400 grand a month just in ads...that tells me there is a huge demand for online patient circles wanting to get grower direct prices..you tell me that isnt revolution bitches...

We need to want to start helping people..

Thundurkel come to Michigan bro... I get at least $4k a lb for my product... The lowest med quality buds go for is $3500 from what I've heard... Living expenses should be cheaper here too... so really, you're banking even more...
