That's $600 an ounce x 8 =$4800 for 3 months of hardly any work. Most definitely can be done while working full time and can be done many times during the year.

I just don't understand. How is growing marijuana worth that much? And that's only one grow, with 4 plants. IMO no marijuana strain is worth that kind of money. NONE. :wtf:

Thats my mentality. It only costs $50 an eighth because it was illlegal. More people are going to start growing, see how easy it is, and then the prices will drop to $100 an ounce.

This has to be the worst advice ever. I will never lower my standards.

Then don't bore us with your whining. Buy it or don't. You want a Porsche at Chevy prices. I want a Ferrari for free. Ain't gonna happen, but at least I don't complain about it. Grow up.

I know how the market works, i have been running my own restaurant for 6 years. I know if i tried to sell a pizza for $75, my customers would laugh and go down the street. I also take pride in having the best, and cheapest pizza in town, delivered hot to your door. We are in a deprression right now, and i am trying to give back to the community by providing affordable food, and not trying to gouge people.

I believe its "ludacris". LMAO!

Just grow bro. Get started for what you'd pay for an oz and put these crooks out of business! Anyone who gives up caregiver rights to a dispensary is not thinking.

Get off my dick.

Im tired of people selling chevy's at porsche prices. I get top quaility meds for $40, im calling out greedy people trying to charge $75. I dont want other people getting ripped off.

Im tired of you following me around. If you want to pay high prices, or defend people that do, you are an idiot.


You are the one stupid enough to go to the worlds best grower seminar.

Oh, gee I'm sorry. You caught me following you around. How did you find me out? You sure have an inflated sense of your own importance. And you correctly identified me as a dumbass too. Very impressive. Your pretty obsessed with your dick, too. Congrats on the trifecta. I bow to your obvious superiority.

It has NOTHING to do with reality. Cannabis is cannabis. There is no such thing as "medical" marijuana, any more than there is such a thing as "affordable" housing. You're a putz.

Here is the definition of "medical" marijuana

Medical Marijuana: The emerging science of applying marijuana's beneficial side effects to an individual patient's needs while minimizing the undesirable side effects on that patient's life.

One of the most undesirable side affects for me is being broke all the time. As a matter of fact, its the only undesirable side affect. In order to minimize the undesirable side effect of being broke all the time, I need to find good quality medicine at an affordable price. I smoke 2-3 grams a day. If i could get down to spending $10-$20 a day, my quality of life would go up. Doesnt matter, because now I am legal to grow my own for free, and provide affordable medicine for my friends. Just a matter of time, and space.



You just got owned

Everyone loves to villify the dispensary owner like were all making millions of dollars....but hell, 99% of my patients drive a nicer car then me....

The reason you may be treated the way you do, is because the majority of patients out here are very new to strain names and indica/sativa dominant hybrids and sometimes need a little extra help finding what suits them best. Ive lost three friends to this fight and they are my driving force to ensure that people like themselfs need not suffer when access is so readily available. Im not a doctor or a scientist, im a cannabis cultivator who comes from a place of caring.

Have a great wednesday fellas, life is meant to be enjoyed!!!

Your shop is actually my favorite right now, and one of the only 4 or 5 that i will actually go into. I can see that you care, it is evident in your product and personality. I have told my friends in Denver about your place and they LOVE IT! I had fun scratching with Blake too. Too bad shops like yours are few and far between. I wish the best to CCF, and hope you guys have a long and prosperous venture.

Ouch. If you knew me, you would know that i am that last person asking for charity. I bust my ass at work, and have always been a hard worker. I have been paying $300 an oz for organic sour diesel and durban for 5 years. I figured now the medical industry in Colorado is booming, and there are tons of LEGAL growers out there, that prices would drop. I spend around $600 a month on medecine, thats almost as much as my rent. I could easily smoke twice that too.

The problem with most dispensaries is that they dont grow their own. You shouldnt even have a dispensary if you dont grow a lot of good medecine. . If i was buying a pound of weed, i would want a good break too. 4k doesnt sound low at all, even for the best organic strains of medicine. 4k is a lot of cash to spend at once. I work at a pizza restaurant and we dont even spend 4k a week on food right now. We usually charge 3 to 4 times what we pay for food. If a large pizza costs $2.00 in food, we sell it for $10.00. That is what a dispensary that doesnt grow their own would need to do if they want to make a profit.

Marijuana is about to be completely legal. I never thought i would see that happen in my lifetime, but right now, i believe it will. Then it shouldnt cost anymore than any other plant or vegetable. I cant wait until i have the space to grow my own. After having a felony conviction for distribution of marijuana, i didnt think i would ever want to risk growing. Now, 5 years later, i got my medical card, and the felony is dropped off my record. I cant wait untill i have the space to grow my own medicine legally. Then i can just trade it with my friends, or sell them quarters for $50 like the good ol days.
