I respect your experience for sure and it certainly adds credit to your prediction so be proud. Thats a lot of moving, a whole lot. I hope you are filthy rich or I understand why you might be bitter. Strangely enough thats exactly the year my path began but I stayed put and built, brokered and flowered. Had several dispensaries and kept the best one for 4 years now with 10 employees growing and making everything in house under a modest 200 lights. I will admit that its worth down to $2 though, i just think the market will tolerate 10 as fair if the quality is there.

10 for the customer. Not the producer. But I kinda doubt it. And its always different regionally, cost of living is different everywhere.

Im not bitter or rich. Not sure where I came off bitter. I moved around because I wanted to experience the world, and only moved to hot beds of cultivation really. And I left my mark all over. In my opinion grindo is the only option for long term these days.

Prices change. As was stated people used to pay 100 a quarter. It didnt cost more to grow it then. It actually was cheaper for things like electric. Folks that got that price back then were pissed every time it dropped. Its nothing new. And the more growers the lower it gets. I would like to clear up any confusion. I am happy for y'all that get more, I hope you do for as long as possible. But things change. If you really do know what you are doing you will be able to cope with it.

Folks were coming around to some events from the okie and had units for 500, and I was like fuck. My brother that I have had a seed making venture with for a while now, and I have known since he was just my friends little brother, said they brought some outdoor units for $50, not 500, $50! Insanely hard to believe, but he always shoots straight with me, and he definitely knows quality.

@Itsmychoice here is what doesnt make much sense. You like these statements
So far everything I've smoked from any dispensaries has somewhere between boring and mostly pointless and completely crap. No idea how Lume stacks up against the rest. I just know we have one here.

Lots of people will try dispensaries for a while just because of all the variety. But if you produce a higher quality product than they do. People will come back. And pay a bit extra.
But then you say you own a dispensary. So by his definition wouldnt your smoke suck? I mean it is dispensary weed. And you liked it which meant you agreed with it. It is stuff like this that makes it hard to talk seriously.

You don't make any sense. I have never owned a dispensary. Out of all the dispensaries in my areas I have only seen product from about half of them. None of it great. Meaning it burns smooth and looks decent. Great herb has been grown to maturity, dried and cured correctly. It taste great until the end of a joint. It makes people request it by name. I don't move lots of weight because I decided to grow less and concentrate on quality. Tired of middlemen telling me they know where to get some for cheap. There are people selling lbs for 800 here and I just heard zoso dispensary is selling zips out the door for 40. That is 100 less than what I'm getting for mine.

Sorry if we are talking about two different qualities of product. But you should please quit screwing up Flowers thread already.

That is just how much it cost back then. That was at least 15 yrs ago around these parts. Probably even longer. Again, I dont agree with it, just how it seems to be overall. Individual experiences will vary.
100 qtrs will never be a thing again. I was just pointing out that anyone who used to pay those prices will still pay extra for better smoke. I'm not talking about bag appeal and names. I mean high quality high and full of delicious flavors all the way to the end of a joint. The kind of herb that seems quite rare around here.

I never said they would be a thing again. I think you need to learn how to read man. You are a salty one aren't you? Do you seriously think you are the only one with weed that good?

I apologize for being confused.

I'm sure any dispensary owner that started small and learned about proper select, good soil and proper harvest and curing, are totally aware what corners are being cut for production purposes.

And I'm not saying dispensary weed has to be boring. Just in my small amount of experience it is.

Dispensary weed is terrible. Anyone smoking that stuff really doesn't care about quality that's for sure. It's not a debate.... that $1300 Asian kush from "cali" is actually probably coming from Canada lol
Tough times all around, keep your head up
