what will happen to the price of marijuana in Colorado when it's (state) legal?

Your failure will come not from external reasons, but becaus of your piss poor "can't do" attitude. I feel sorry for you.
In my state 3 trees is mandatory minimum. This legalization bill also states that it in no way impacts existing Colorado MMJ law. It allows anyone with a license to grow as many trees as they want, and sell it, legally. I have no clue what your point is.

Actually I'm from Alabama. That's my team you're talking about kicking everyone's else's ass.
Wait....I think I'm starting to see a pattern here.
Who said anything about farming? Is the CEO of Phillip-Morris or Anheuser-Busch a "farmer" in your mind?
Who said anything about "compassion?" I'm a businessman. What do you define compassion as, exactly? To me it means making a lot of money and then using it to make people's lives better. Am I not compassionate because I have vision and I want to create something great? That takes money to accomplish. If you think a million dollars is a lot, I'd love to see your face the day I break the trillion dollar mark, for the first time in history. A million dollars is nothing. Enjoy being poor, hippie.

It sucks but this is what happens when cannabis is illegal. You get business people that do it solely for the money. When it is leagal these people will find another trade to make money because it will be much harder to compete. These are the people who are most likely to cut corners with their grows. More likely to use pesticides and hormones. We need less of these types of people. When this is leagal the price will drastically reduce and the top 5-10% who grow for quality have the best chance.
Dumbledore, those people are not business people, but rather opportunists. A business person would realize that in order to grow a company long-term, cutting corners short-term is the worst thing possible. In a saturated market, relationships are the true asset. Consistency and quality are highly valued in any business the world over.

^ Agreed 100%. After legalization I do foresee prices rising for a year or two before starting a steady decline, since demand will increase overnight and/or be quickly shifted from underground to legit sources, while it will take some time for those companies to get large scale commercial production set up and the bugs worked out. Those who have the most efficient methods and smartest budgeting in this early period will have a large advantage. It will take me a full two years from the day it's legalized to when my products are ready to hit shelves. A large part of that is the one-year minimum cure. Quality is what I'm about. My goal is to provide high quality cannabis for a fair price, and make a lot of money, then use the proceeds to benefit humanity as a whole. I don't understand people who somehow think I'm in the wrong for that.

hell don't know got to hope for your sake and mine it stays at a decent level. I don't live in Colorado but got to think if it goes legal there, it will be legal everywhere within a few years. That I imagine will hurt black market prices in the near term but if I can grow it in a few acres of fields after that, I got to wonder which is better. I am willing to sacrifice personal good for the greater good anyday and if I have to so be it. I may be a little poorer but still free. Go legalization!!!
The number one thing I see happening is a (second) surge of growers that don't know diddly... dumping their crap on the market, really cheap.
Quality will improve... but dang it will take a while.
Stay Safe!

You think the law has it together whether it'd be the state or the feds? To quote a recent story: "A few years ago it became illegal for NYC restaurants and butchers to use wooden cutting boards because it was "obvious" to the authorities that the cracks and gouges would accumulate germs and toxins. Then, after the old world chefs of the world's greatest city were stripped of their heirloom cutting boards and compelled to switch to generic plastic boards and "stop selfishly risking the public health for their vanity", only then was it time to actually test the premise; and only then was it recognized that, unlike wood, plastic is an oleophillic surface that does not clean as well as wood, is certainly not safer than wood, and may in fact be a serious hazard as a fertile breeding ground for food-borne bacteria and illness. Of course, the regulatory authorities who wasted taxpayer money banning wooden cutting boards are certainly not going to commit research funds to proving that they were smug, know-it-all, blundering idiots -- so that's the end of that."
They've been saying the same thing w/cancer research. Like they're still saying "Don't go near cannabis, take your Tamoxifen" (which is a POISON). I don't live in Colorado, but I'd most likely vote Yes and walk out laughing saying "Yeah, right".
So I don't really see much of a change until the feds do something about it. Despite these crazy laws that have been around since my great-grandparent's days, I'm pretty optimistic from developments the past 10 years or so.

So this thread on a weed growing site has nothing to do with farming? Your next post talks about your two-year production plan...thats not farming? You will be solely a dispensary owner? You'll never make a trill growing a plant. Any plant.
It'll be organic, too?
Enjoy dealing with your inflated ego, tool.
Monsanto seems close to that already, market cap $48.5 billion (hit almost $70 billion in 2008). Even Bill Gates invested in them.
No, it's not.
I never claimed such. My first trillion will come from mining the asteroid belt. My positioning in the (several hundred billion dollar) cannabis industry is only a stepping stone towards greater things.
Define "organic."
Enjoy being nobody.
Everyone has pipe dreams. Some get wet.
Don't get me wrong, that's a lot of dough for mainly an agricultural company, but its not even 1/20th the way to one trillion. Apple is set to be the first trillion dollar company.
I don't think the prices for herb will go much lower than the medical scene is seeing right now, after full legalization. Even may go up for a bit.
I think if Apple gets involved they'll take schwag, call it super-dank and back sue the Mexican cartels in the process for infringement.
