In line with preconceived notions, downtown new yakkers demand a certain up high, feeling it's easier to conceal amongst the throngs. Whew

All I know, those in NYC are about to find themselves craving a whole new flavor they won't be able to get from out west. That real deal east coast created fire - everything that city loves. Chem. Sour. Haze. You won't be able to grow enough of her...

They grow massive amounts of Chem Sour and Haze in California those strains are in almost every clone catalog on the west coast.

Yeah, but it won't be anything remotely close to this...lol:

And everyone commenting here on the quality once it finally makes it east is EXACTLY why it doesn't even matter what they have in seed catalogs in Cali or in Europe. Flowers get stepped on so many times by the time it reaches the end user most of the time it's NOT worth smoking. Spend top dollar and get the same high as if you had bought mids - only difference is it might taste a bit better.

I don't care what you send east - it's not going to best local. The boys that WANT the best know this - and they know in order to have the best - they have to pay for it.

Then Canadians come in here and try to explain to us how backwards we are talking. Am I the only one that remembers the industry had to create an entire new terminology to even describe the metallic 45 day garbage that comes from there - BEASTERS. Not to say it is all that way, obviously, but when it comes east from Cali - it's 'mersh to begin with. Stuff that wouldn't make the cut at the local dispensary...or simply wasn't grown with care because it was being sent to a less competitive market.

This ridiculous notion of committing felonies for strangers at the cheapest rate possible or being called greedy is just absolutely ridiculous. Some of you have spent too much time in your cozy little med states acting like cry babies cause someone cut your plant count from 2,000 to 500....ROFL.

SOME of us are still out here on the FRONT LINES - challenging the laws. Fighting prohibition FOR REAL. Taking risks. Trying to make a difference. F.U.C.K.E.M. :joint:

Not sitting in our warehouses, talking to our accountants and lawyers and city council, figuring out who to grease next to get your fellow grower shut down so you can monopolize the industry more. Some of you should be hanging your head right about now ......."uncle sam" mother f.....

The war isn't over by a long shot - seems some of you forgot what it means to overgrow. Most of us are NOT growing for cars or houses or vacations - but for legal retainers - just in case. Last time I checked, lawyers weren't cheap. If you sell your product and your first $50k hasn't been set aside and given to an attorney, you've been given bad advice and you need to re-evaluate your current reality.

Shit just got real!
The war is brutal over here and those who fall are scarred for life. I'm still licking my wounds from shit that went down 5 years ago. It's a constant weight we bear and a stress that never goes away. I've been beat down to the point I can't even have a garden anymore but still risk my freedom for my tiny closet veg room of plants I just can't let go of. It's a tough life outside of medville or legal land and been a while since I felt good about it.

Dank Frank reading that gave me chills man I haven't felt so proud to do what I do in a long time.

It's most likely that the Ca or Co grown buds for sale in NYC have not been "kiefed".....it's more likely that due to incorrect handling of the plant during growing, harvesting, drying, packaging and transporting, re-packaging etc that most of the external resin heads were knocked off or squashed on the plastic before ending up in the hands of the actual guy who is going to smoke it. It's easy to see where the resin has gone, check out the sides of the plastic bag that an eighth came in with a magnifier..and keep in mind that this bud has been in several plastic bags since it was harvested.
This is why the best East coast bud will be better than 99% of the best imported commercial bud, as it's had less handling....plastic bags and poor handling "seizes" more resin than the DEA.

You've seen it, I haven't, I'm just theorizing...anyway, maybe some Cali cash croppers or those working for one of them could chime in with what happens at their grow.

If you've had a chance to see the shipment as soon as it comes in from the West, then that will give you a better idea of if it has or hasn't., but still, it would be difficult to know if was sifted or just poorly handled.

The reason I think that most Cali or Co bud in NYC has not not been sifted is that cash crops are usually treated in the most damaging ways all the way along it's road from a young plant to getting burnt by those who don't know the damage they are doing or just don't care, The plant matter, once it gets into the end user's hands, has been mauled while growing, thrashed when harvested, picked up and dumped onto boxes or trays, weighing machines, numerous bags, squashed, banged, bashed and generally wrecked. ...the end result is that it ends up looking pretty similar to lightly dry sifted bud and it would be pretty hard to tell wouldn't it.

Maybe the growers dry the buds on a screen and give them a little shuffle once dry so they can steal a bit resin for themselves. ..but most wholesalers probably wouldn't risk or want to lose time opening dozens or hundreds of pound bags and sifting it to rob some resin which might make it harder to sell, I think they're more interested in a fast turnover with the lowest risk.

i have , right out of the box it was shipped in & in vac sealed bags . no kief in the bottom or stuck to the bags . proved it to the kid getting the shit , by taking my scope & having him see for himself.

This is very true , i know several big growers who ship, and they always manhandle their weed, dgaf every step of the way

They grow so much theres no reason to keef the buds, they just want to get it dried trimmed and shipped

Amen, frank.

It's 2016 and I'm almost embarrassed to say that I've never even seen a dispensary much less set foot in one, and I've been battling crohn's for over a decade. I'm not allowed to grow cannabis though while people 2 states aways are buying it in stores on main street America.

Well why not pack your bags and move to medical state? Because abandoning my home, family, and friends because Johnny Law says I can't grow a fucking plant that has been around much longer than this country is not even remotely an option for me.

We will just keep fighting the good fight until we have the same rights as other Americans that pay the same taxes we do :tiphat:
