I'm guessing that those prices reflect both the time of year and Sacramento's proximity to the emerald triangle.
How much for a pound near you?

What do you mean exactly? Prices are up. Whats a large grow? What kind of quality checks do you want to see?

Well a large grow in my opinion is anything over 10k in the flower room and have cyclical harvests with new plants to replace. As for quality checks that statement was a little misleading on my part. What I am interested in seeing is how large scale grows keep the quality high. I have always been under the impression that bud coming from larger scale grows is the lesser of quality. This is opposed to someone with a smaller sized grow(<10k), who is able to tend to their plants meticulously. I am a little naive though because I have only a few examples to base my opinion from. I guess the root of my concern is dispensary or recreational store owners buying meds at a lower price and trying to pass it off as top shelf. I can't believe what some people think is good bud.

Ok, Yes. There are niche farmers with 10k rooms that have unbelievable quality. Top shelf for sure. Niche being super low yielding go's, trying to get the most yield out of them. But first and foremost quality being top dog. A good way to keep your quality high, is have your medicine tested on your own first. Have to be a passionate gardener in this field whether you have 1 light or 10.

Thanks for the insight, I'll admit it's a little weird starting to see the supply catch up to the demand in some areas of the country.

Most these sellers are small growers and will run out of stock,while some have several CL accounts and a steady flow of buds all year.Plenty of indoor offered as well as GH or OD.
I know of 1 large grower who will harvest about 50 lbs a season and the crop is pre sold to a NY vendor sent in the mail 2 lbs at a time($6000.00)lucky connect there.Also could back fire one day and provide an 8 year sentence!

There is plenty of growers on the east side(foot hills San Joaquin Valley)the weather is ideal.And land is cheaper.
For sure,this time of year is a buyers market.Recoup cost and dump the first round to pay trimmers and pay for that long dry spell waiting for the damn plant to bud out.Hopping the whole time not to catch bud rot and avoid the constent flow of rippers out there
2 days ago,at 6;30am some traveler drove his car right up the driveway,all were home at the time.This guy gets out his car walks a 100 feet over to the prize plant(4 lb der)grabs a hold of a 1" stalk,takes a big pull,rips the limb off and drags the buds to his car,drives off with 1/2 lb.

I'm in an illegal state and over the past 5 years I have seen lbs go from close to $4,500 down to $3000ish for top quality indoor. The quality seems to be more consistent now as well.

I most recently heard a neighbor RANTING incessantly about this herb he got that smelled good but was total shit to smoke,in northern vermont near college's especially there's what i saw was outdoor from somewhere west of vermont lol, that had the life kiefed out it, and the dude was charging his customers 20 a gram, so seeing that being done live and done successfully, i guess skies the limit where i am for an elbow. I am used to decent quality herbs for 400-500 a Qp.

Well so far I haven't seen any units under 2800. Even at that price it is hit or miss. I am shocked what people are smoking on and claim to be really good meds. If more patients and consumers were educated on quality medicine there would be higher demand for top shelf keeping prices steady. Plus prescription medicine costs are on the rise so more people with open minds will be trying cannabis

Wow---500 a Qp----In my world $900 a qp wholesale from the grower.
Let's see----- 1600 and lb profit----no dedicated place (mortgage), no equipment cost, no operating cost. Perhaps it's time to start an import business.
If only I didn't love growing so much.
