Wholesale pot prices plummet. Now there starting to get better

I listented to an audio book while trimming not to long ago.. I think the title was: Mind over Matter, the power of the placebo effect.
pretty interesting, there was a chapter all about wines and wine tasting connesuiers and how given blind taste tests couldnt reliably pick a $20 bottle of wine from a $500 bottle of wine.
I dont really have a point i guess, just making conversation.
LOL, sometimes I get the same impression from my barista friends, some coffee really stands out and impresses, other times, they're trying to snag some random descriptor from mid-air.

What's the price you guys are seeing on good dep right now?
18-22
Same thing with vodka. Have seen a taste test where people were sure they could pick out their favorite brand, and definitely could pick out the premium brands, but guess what? They couldn't. Same thing with Coke & Pepsi. Blindfolded, you can't tell the difference. Many people can't tell the difference between ginger ale & coke when blindfolded.
Every person in the vodka test was sure they could pick out their favorite brand, but none could, and after a couple of drinks, it becomes even more difficult.
South Florida checking in... Someone who I consider not very well connected is getting units for 2000, it is decent quality with a smell but very obviously shipped in outdoor/dep.
In this black market, there is no demand for quality (only standard is if it can pass as "krypie", $20/25 for 1.7g to the end user. Competition is fierce because it is purely price driven and my A+ is too expensive to produce so I am done.

Taste may be the same but the fiz is different between the two. To much fiz with the coke.
I will tgake that test. I will burp longer and spit up the foam from the coke.

I agree that the placebo effect has way more influence than what most people would like to admit, but with cannabis there are clear differences between being grown in two different areas like the central valley and the emerald triangle. I would imagine that terroirs become an integral part of the legal mechanisms used to defend their profit margins against overproduction.
Experienced my first 1800....wow was that painful! The days of 5000 seem soooo far away now....lol!
at what point does it make more sense to extract it all?
Whether 'tis better to sell a pound of weed or just run it into oil depends how much extract you yield per lb of flowers, how much you can sell that extract for, and how fast you can sell it.
Trimming is also a variable, some people would rather skip the trim scene drama and just run oil instead.
Sure don't miss those CA wholesale pot prices.. Been Here a Year. It's where I am from (which is why it's working), and I am comfortable. Living the lifestyle (almost) that I had for the good years in NorCal near the Cold Big Drink. Never will match those heady 5200-4800-4200-3600 years for the "Kush." (Chemdog)
Lowballers abound but back down in the face of Hi Q, 28-3 per Trip D Indoor.

Seen a bunch of last years bobby brown blue dream at 15 go, fresh og dep 2 to me. Soon extracts market will be flooded with subpar junk that people didn't have enough water to even grow but still tried anyway that will all be turned to oil. I've seen people selling oil for 5 bucks a gram, which is cheaper than most average consumers pay for weed, so not sure I understand the point of that, have seen some people getting 40/g tho too.
BHO game has changed...old days, you bought PVC pipes at home depot, blew with Vector only at $5-7 each, purged in a glass pie plate, fucked with it until you got the consistency desired...all this for $30-40/gram was the norm.
Now....extractors are glass/stainless steel only, canned butane is now ghetto, closed systems with cleaner solvents, with purging via vacuum ovens. Timing and temps determine the consistency desired....all this for $20-30/gram.
IMHO, Ghetto blowers will never compete with the state of the art extractors...lol. Besides, at $1k/pack--many will blow the harvest rather than manicure it. Cost vs time.

but then can your plug move all of what you come up with and can you guarantee that all of it will be uniform and the same consistency and what about the conversion ratio of flower in to extract and the relationship between the prices of the two and again...your ability to convert.
If you have to go out at 1000 you fucked up and your stuffs garbage or someones raping you because you don't know any one else and you need to get out and meet new people who will respect you for your hard work. If you're not setting up shop on 13th street or higher , Keep driving

About the same time outdoor harvest starts glutting the marketplace, I bet we see $1k for mid/bottom shelf in So Calli. Everyone thinks they can grow top shelf...lol.
Not that I have to worry about this...as I am blessed to have my product placement much higher than most.
