Thundurkel, your avatar rocks!
What is up with these compassionate clubs turning away plants? Have that many people abused the system to where they don't trust patients? I would love to donate some time and a bag of coco bricks I won't be using when the time comes. I wish I had more finances to help out but we as a community can make do with whatever someone has to offer. The real question is, this is a Sacramento forum but how many people actually live within the city or county - not being part of that group, a drive that far without vomiting all over the steering wheel seems unlikely. Trybud is right I think, CW should be for the extras of the community not the main stash. Most here have growing experience or a desire to learn, and for those who cannot we can help them as well. The sun shines so brightly in the Northern CA sky~ what a beautiful day...
This forum is becoming a family.
What about a genetics collective that focused on acquiring and spreading the best genetics. I figure if you spread great genetics around its just a matter of time before someone crosses it with something else great and bam!! you've got better cannabis overall. Think about it we get a sac clone collective going we all contribute for seeds so they are super cheap, one or more individuals in the group grows them out and shares the genetics which are then cloned in mass for the public so that everyone can smoke great weed. Lets set the bar high.
C21, love your idea and spreading out the cost of seeds. That's a great idea, we can get one of everything. Hehehehe
Yeah businesses can purchase from wholesalers if they have a special permit (name withheld cause I'm a dick), the same permit that requires mmj collectives/coops/dispensaries ect. to have in order to pay tax to the state. Unfortunately with wholesale prices comes wholesale volume. You can't just buy a ballast, you have to buy a pallate of them.
Here in the Sac area, I've been exposed to the large commercial monster where quality at a reasonable donation has been lost in translation due to greed and stupidity.
I'd like to see that change. You don't know how many times, I've had someone cry on the other end of the line, because I offered them medicine that they could actually afford at a reasonable price.
BUILD IT, AND THEY WILL COME.
Im in Sac damn near every day, and Im sorry but if you want to play in the city you gotta be on your game, not running a charity, unless you live in the suburbs. I know that is harsh and sounds fucked up but hey, at least I know I can be real with it. Not saying you arent, but it just sounds off to me from the envorment I'm in when Im up there.
Whether its watt in the russian district or down at the end of MLK JR its the vibe of the city and it seeps out of all corners.
More than 90% of the folks who burn around here do it to get high, and little else...theres no way around that.
Im not against the advocation bro, dont get me wrong. But when your in the capital you really are immersed in some areas, and thats how the city functions. There are a TON of upper middlemen and generals running around here making a killing, but there is also more than enough avg. joes pushin on the side and not to survive. I guess what I m trying to say is that if you want dank and dont want to pay much for it, then grow it your damn self. I would never try to negotiate for bud or complain about the market structure unless my f(_)kin legs and arms were shattered. But hey thats just me so who care right?
I utlra stony, and heading out to the ceno on auburn.....so dont listen to me
