True. Back when I was young a friend and I stopped at the Outer Banks, NC to retrieve some of her belongings before planning on moving out west. Our car was acting up while we were there, so we took it to a shop out in the boonies of the mainland. The owner was an 70+ year old redneck who seemed very small town minded. While we were talking to him he asked where we were headed, so we told him Humboldt. He was like, "There's a lot of good pot in Humboldt. Are you planning on trimming?" This blew me away because it was like '99, and this guy didn't seem like the type to ever smoke, let along be in the know. So my takeaway was you never really know who knows what.
Raised in West Texas. Certified farrier through NMSU. Truck was lettered. Have been to more than one place to shoe or to trim cow's hooves or whatever paid and traded bud for services.

Stopped at an apple stand near Mayhill NM. Had about $25. This was 1972 or so. Hee Haw was popular as hell and this couple with the stand looked like Junior and Lulu. Down to the short hair and overalls. Dead season and they were about to close for lack of business. Told my wife I was going to ask if they smoked. Always had a shirt pocket full of joints. She was already a nurse. She's freaking. No don't. Look at those two.

Asked anyway. Left without a joint left in my pocket and 5 cases of apples. They not only smoked but it was dry as hell and they hadn't gotten buzzed in a long time.

I know what you said. And no. You think people would still up year after year for a decade if they were worried about being robbed lmao. Your from Cali right? Has that happened to you or something? Iv never heard that happen to anyone.
My point is, the robbed patrons of a non-legal popup aren't calling the cops so fuck yeah, it will keep happening. And no it hasn't happened to me personally but it's happened a bunch. Doesn't matter where I'm from.

What it looks like to me is everyone who is trying to get rich off of cannabis is voiding each other out by bottoming out the market. Eventually there won't be enough profit and they'll move on to bitcoin mining or whatever the next big boom is. Then the overall market will start to stabilize, and smaller niche markets much like micro breweries will start to take hold. Then there will be generic Amazon smokers vs. hipster smokers.

I can’t name anyone or any story’s that this happened. How do you know? I live in so cal. So I figured I’d hear something about it. Like be warned before even thinking about shop hopping

And it kinda matters where your from if your spreading information about it. What’s your source? That’s all

Here's what Oklahoma's problem is... SQ 788 allowed no business caps, no canopy limit, only $2500 a year in fees, unlimited licenses, 25% out of State ownership, ...... we have 22 Dispensaries in a town of 22,000. This is the norm across the State.

Even if it looks like a dog turd, it smelled nice. Good trichs... but still. That's really, really cheap.
I see no trichomes at all. And that’s a very clear picture. But I have no choice but to believe ya. Iv showed a few that pic already. And same response. 2 dog poop and one thought it was an chocolate brownie ball. All 3 said the same. They couldn’t pay me to taste it let alone take it home. I’d have to say that shit looked worse than the stuff they sold in Tupperware in 2012 lol

Ok... well, I saw it in person. It's worth more than $100 for 3 zips.

The Tropic Moon and Big Bud did look better tho.. my point is, this Oklahoma market is a race to the bottom. 2022 is going to be an interesting year with so much over saturation. I mentioned this in another thread, but we have more growers in OK than CA, WA, and CO combined. It's nuts.
Well if their growing weed that looks like dingleberries. That’s prolly why lol.

Guys...Canadian thread in the Canadian section.
But if they open stores in your State like they do here in Ontario....that will make the weed worth nothing like it is here.
I personally will never enter a store here as it's basically like handing your weed money to the tax man or the guys that run jails.
Black Market is the only honest weed. The other shit is sold by "yes" men and low life traitors.
The more they suffer the better I feel.
BOYCOTT TAXED WEED EVERYWHERE

No body pays taxes anymore. Only tourists man. Black market has storefronts now. You just see them as a legal front from the jump. But you have no idea buddy. Haha. Not a clue.

To be fair, you guys already have a successful thread about how screwed the market is in Canada. No one wants the weed that is grown, and no one wants to buy the equipment to grow it locally. The whole thing is heartbreaking. I still love you for the Beasters movement back in the early 2000s which overthrew shwag's reign. I don't want to see this happening to you fine folks.

I picked up an 1/8th of Amsterdam Sativa in a local shop last week for $25. Not sure if the shops around here will last long if they sell some of what others are talking about in the dispensaries. They got away with crap the first year but it's gotten a lot better. It's still not as good as homegrown or some of the grey market I've ordered before. It's perfectly acceptable for me though.

That looks like it should be cheap. Was it good?
