Gemeni I'm sorry but those numbers are just wrong, no offense my brother. Maybe u can pull 500/o from hipsters in Brooklyn, but FFLD CNTY kids are not paying those prices anymore. There's trailers comin thru manhattan every day, no one goes that high no more.

Now I haven't let them go in batches that small, but I'm around the $220 mark. I try not to be too greedy, it's better for me if everyone is happy all the way down the line... We all make dough together and I tell u what it's workin just fine for me.

:laughing: That's good, cause you've laid out alot for your set-up! :D

Thx everyone for the pricing discourse. I even went and looked up the RI dispensaries. You caregivers must be real happy there'll only be three, or is it like Ma. where there'll be more down the line in following yrs?

A little after the fact, but here's a link to the Ma. MMJ Dispensers' Assc. for you dreamer's like me. "100% financing!"

I wouldn't mind paying 275-300 a zip for the stuff the MA/RI/Conn dudes be dishing out... but if it's coming by the bow I ain't dishing more than 225 a piece. Just no room to make money... OR at least in my area. Anybody who's getting over 36 wholesale my hat goes off to you! As far as MMJ.... Im stayin' underground for the time being... Not hating on people who signed up. Just personal preference until MA works out some reasonable regulations.

I get 4400 wholesale and I'm happy with where it is sitting right now. Don't sell yourself short if ya got dank! That being said it must be proper or they don't even want to look at it.

Shit a couple years ago ecsd was 450 a zip no breaks... My how prices have come down.... We as a group need to keep them high honestly, too many dudes are getting into the med thing and have no connections , they off their bud for too cheap and it fucks the market... Those people are the worst!!

What strains are you getting 4400 an elbow for?

Before the summer, it was 36-4000 for the cream of the crop best indoor cali (sour diesel, OG's, chemdawg, blue dream, GDP ). The best greenhouse, that most people thought was indoor, ranged from 26-3000. Homegrown local can still fetch 4500-5 depending on the strain and how limited and properly it was grown.

I, too, wonder what kind of stuff you getting for 44 an elbow...

FYI, these are prices in the burbs 20 min outside of Boston :biggrin:

Elite clone only's... Like I said if the buds aren't proper then they do t even want to look at them. Genetics are key. You guys know the sort of stuff I run.... Real diesels, real chems, real kush, etc etc. Why does the price of the best Cali import matter? It is not as good as what we are working with.

wow thanks for the info, really had no clue what current prices are lately. been growing a long long time for the love of the plant but my prices have remained the same [free] lol. so really had no clue where the market was at all. I think I'm going to revisit my pricing. Thanks again everyone. PP

The price of Cali import does matter, because it affects the price that you sell your elite clone only's. I remember only a few years ago when top notch local grown FIRE (chemdawgs, ECSD, Island Sweet Skunk) used to fetch 6k-6400 per unit...and I used to pay it all day, happily!! But over the last couple of years with the avalanche of Cali import, these prices have dropped 30% or more.

I completely agree with you lloyd, that you can get 4400 or more for the elite clone onlys like the stuff that you run (i looked at your gallery, absolutely beautiful flowers and concentrates, I tip my hat to you :tiphat:), but certain clientele would rather pay a 1000 less for something almost as good, and at times, just as good as the local stuff.

It also depends a lot on who you know. I know people who bring only the stuff that they can't sell to the clubs, but others do bring legitimate kushes and diesels that are comparable to high end local product.

I respectfully disagree Kirkland, cali import prices can fluctuate all they want but it won't mess with the prices of high quality home grown. I agree that certain people will only care about the numbers because this game is pure business to them so the high quality is out of the question for those peeps. At the same time their are people out their who only want to smoke on the highest quality bud and understand the vast difference in work/output/yields into cali imports and good home growns hence they will pay 4400+. I have no issue selling my lbs for 44, in fact most of the time I don't have enough people want more. IMO high quality home growns will 99% of the time, smell, taste, look better, and get you higher. On top of that some people like the idea of getting their buds straight from the source knowing nothing was sprayed all over their shit then shoved into vac sealed bags and squished. Does anyone think ECSD thats commercially produced in cali is just as good and deserves to fetch the same price as the guy who grows 2lbs of home grown ECSD in his basement and puts in all their energy to just those 2lbs? Personally I don't think so, thats why people who know the difference jump at the bit to pay the higher prices.

Hey kirkland I think the big wave of crappy east coast medical buds drive down price more than anything these days, to be honest. The cali weed has already done it's damage years ago, things have sort of leveled off...

yeah things have leveled off , price dropped a few years ago but has remained the same since in my crew .. we use to 6800 for sour 10 packs a few years ago no problems .I try to grow the dankest buds possible to make sure heads line up ... Right now stardawg and og are doing it for me ... dialed in stardawg taste so good

Ahhh yes, baph about 5-7 years ago i was getting 6400 a lb myself, than again things weren't so medical then and not as many people were trying to grow in my area. I still feel where we are at now is fair, shit I can probably pinch more out of people but fuck it, like CDM said before everyones happy and wants more when everyone down the line can make a profit.

Gemeni I'm sorry but those numbers are just wrong, no offense my brother. Maybe u can pull 500/o from hipsters in Brooklyn, but FFLD CNTY kids are not paying those prices anymore. There's trailers comin thru manhattan every day, no one goes that high no more.

Now I haven't let them go in batches that small, but I'm around the $220 mark. I try not to be too greedy, it's better for me if everyone is happy all the way down the line... We all make dough together and I tell u what it's workin just fine for me.

No offense bro .... Im floating .... Coolin man

But those prices aren't in NYC .... Those are more high end burbs of NY/CT ..... where million dollar house are every other house ...... But it's for the sane quality Lloyd n Otto are talking .... Og/chem/ECSD .... Best of the best ....... The kind that an O will stink up the neighborhood ...... Not everything makes that level ...... Just what rises to the top ..... Creme dela Creme my man

I'm with you sell it lower make the line happy ..... But can't blow it out either ...... If they want quality they know the deal

I puffed some ECSD yesterday from a "VT dispens) and it was mediocre at best and definitely pulled 1-3 weeks early....stuff was mediocre (at best) but coming from a "regulated source", one would think it would be top notch but it was average....

Does anyone know how one can grow for medical users in VT?
