Why dealers should want lower quality weed, and we shouldn't.

[wayoftheleaf]

Here is my personal thoughts on the weed economy.

Lower quality weed is wonderful for people to use as a "scapegoat" for when they don't have enough money for higher quality marijuana. The reason we don't want lower quality weed is because if there wasn't any, then the prices of high quality weed would drop dramatically.

Why is this?

This is because if there was only dank quality weed in the world, then all that could be planted were dank quality plants. This being the only weed it would of course still ahve a mild hierarchy, but not anywhere to todays. Prices would drop at an incredible rate. People wouldn't buy for something that is that high always. It would have to be lower or dealers would lose a huge class of buyers. Dealers want there to be lesser quality weed so this does not happen.

If there was only headies, then someone would come along and make higher then headies, and we'd just have even better bud and stuff..

i dunno, i'm high.

[wayoftheleaf]

Like i said, still would be hierarchies, just on a much lower scale and cheaper.

I love my hemp lip balm

Yes

I am stoned

That was kind of random

Whatever, free market and all that. People would think of a way to fuck over the customers anyway.

[wayoftheleaf]

That pisses me off so much. This is fucking weed people not meth or crack or some shit. Weed is like the posterchild for peace and love.

[slipknotpsycho]

any seed planted has the potiential to be dank quality... i'ts about the grower, true some may be alot harder to get high end results then other strains, but with love and care any seed can become dank... as for price drops, i doubt it... even if there was only one solid quality, i still bet it would be outrageously priced... hell, until 20 joints cost you the same for a premium pack of cigarettes, i say it's over priced...

[nofx12345]

i think weed is too good of a thing to put a price on.
its like charging people to look at the stars
its on the earth we should be able to smoke it for free.

I think i saw something that went a little like this: " If there was only dank quality buds there'd only be dank quality plants."


Thats not true at all, any plant, no matter how good it is genetically, could still be grown so badly it'd give schwagg.

JUst because you have a good seed or clone, doesnt mean it's going to be good bud unles you grow it right, so there will always be schwagg sadly.

You can even get a schwagg seed, as long as it's healthy, and grow it into a fairly good plant, much better then the previous bud. It's all about how they're grown, nothing to do with strains.

well lets face it, if a person is dealing there doing it for the money and they can actually make a higher profit off of low quality comercial weed that they can buy for 300 a pound versus high quality that they may pay 2000 a pound for, by the time its sold for whatever the market will bear its easy to see wich one will make them the most money.
and would agree that there is nothing really wrong with the plants used in commercial weed its just not cared for by taking the time to sex plants, and it is not manicured and dryed properly and just gets compressed into a brick stems, seeds and all, you could take about any strain out there and turn it into low quality commercial weed by using the same methods.

This makes this little sense in my hears >---< ...

It's like crime..

Not matter how many locks you put on your door, someone will still find a way to brake in..

[CityBoyGoneCountry]

Most of that lower quality weed they are selling actually began as high quality weed. The best buds in the world will turn nasty if they are not handled properly.

It's not any sort of conspiracy to flood the market with dirt weed. It's just a complete disregard for proper drying, curing, packaging and storing techniques. Because if people are going to buy the shit anyways, why put yourself through all that extra effort?

[Skrappie]

people aren't risking going to prison to bring you stars, I bet you'd go to jail for that anyway. Keep the stars away from earth dude.:stoned:

[wayoftheleaf]

One second let me revise this. If the only people who grew, took as good of care of their plants as is possible, and treated ever eventualiyty and nurtured them as a child. Ya'll really keep a guy on his toes. Yall pick at everything. There is absolutely no assuming on this board. Then again to assume is just to make an ass of u and me

[Whos Carl]

Couldnt have put it better than Slipknot psycho. If the grower is using bought seeds then it has the potential to be very very nice weed. But due to budget, experience, knowledge, equipment, handling and many other things it reflects on the quality.

The best situation is grow your own if you can and have the knowledge, next best is a mate that grows to smoke, next is a grower that smokes but is your dealer and not your mate.

Then there is a mate dealer or friend of a dealer. The worst is someone who offers you weed on the street because they shouldnt have to come you. If they had nice weed and did nice deals then they shouldn't have to look for customers.

It's been said, but any strain of cannabis has the potential to be a good quality smoke. There is no such thing as shagg plants. Shagg or shitty weed happens when it was grown, or stored improperly, examples would be not weeding out the males when female plants are growing (seeded buds), or the buds were not properly dried and stored (mold, harsh smoke), or the plants were picked too soon, or too late (green taste, harsh smoke).

Lets say someone has a high quality strain like White Rhino (22% THC content) and a lower cost seed from Nirvana like Ice or something. The person with the White Rhino and the person who grows it incorrectly, can turn out to be shagg, while the person with Nirvana, grows it properly and gets a potent smoke. It all depends on how much care the grower puts into growing/storing the cannabis.

I have seen some people save seeds from the shittiest, most seeded pot you could find, grow the seed out, and the outcome is usually, if grown properly, is an amazing smoke.

Dealers keep selling grams for $20-$30 because people keep on buying it. If people were to stop buying it, then they'd have no choice but to lower the overall cost. It's still there because people keep going back and letting themselves continue to get ripped off. It's not the dealers fault, it's the fault of the people choosing to pay that much.

[Whos Carl]

Growing is such a better option after a few grows you will have perfected the techniques and you will be getting very potent smoke and you will be producing weed for literally nothing.

Pretty much. Try about $10 an ounce nothing. :D

[Cooler Then Jesus]

i usually buy the GOOD chronic weed from my grower to SELL, and then he gives me the not as good buds from the bottom of the plant to smoke to my self, because that stuff costs me less, and if i happen to want the better stuff, the i have the access to trade it out for my stuff since i have the bag to sell anyway.

i actually prefer getting shitty weed if the price is really good, because then me and my homeboys can just stay up all night and smoke, drink and play xbox/watch tv and not feel like i am smoking a 20 dollar bill everytime we smoke a Blunt. cause we like to get high as hell and all, dont get me wrong, but we like to chill and smoke even more.

i know im weird.

three words: the communist manifesto. your thoughts on growing only dank herb mirrors a socialist economy vs. a capitalist economy.
