Vending?

It's sad to see where we've ended up on all of this. There are certainly pros and cons to both scenarios.(dispensary/caregivership)

But the bottom line to me is that as of now the dispensaries are the model at hand and as a result, they are THE entities that are being watched, both by the State and FED, and by the general public. Such is why, even though a form of sarcasm may have been there, comments about selling to kids and shit EVEN ON A POT BOARD are totally DAMAGING to this entire scene. You folks who have "stepped up" now hold this entire program's future in your hands and IMO, it's about time you started policing not only your own behaviors but also those of your peers. If you don't, I guarantee the voting public WILL.

No, I was saying that every ounce in the center is LESS than the $225 Turbo said that no MMC could touch.

On occasion we have low yielding strains for $225, but for the most part everything we grow is $200. Of course we need to charge tax on sales too.

There have been threads on here before talking about vendors. Like:
http://boards.cannabis.com/colorado-...g-vendors.html
http://boards.cannabis.com/colorado-...le-vendor.html
http://boards.cannabis.com/colorado-...e-vendors.html

I was just wondering if the perception was you can no longer vend meds.

I'm still going to speak at the public hearing, but honestly, sometimes I wonder why. Another one of your tirades against one of my posts for no reason other than we're an MMC.

really folks, we need to stop this jibber jabbering at each other. it's counterproductive to perpetuate this caregivers vs. MMC bs. Because of the laws it is what it is for the time being. As a caregiver myself, while i despise what has happened because of the new regulations, i'm still grateful that we have a state that is dealing with MJ at all! It wasn't all that long ago that we were all underground trying to stay away from LEO and knowing that at any moment it could all come crashing down along with the front door! We're closer than we have ever been to having this all legal once and for all. Lets work towards that goal and be advocates for change and allies under the green umbrella!:thumbsup:

Sounds like you are running out of meds? 70/30 rule becoming a wee bit of a problem? Anyway, do you have legal means to deal with vendors?

70/30 isn't the issue, it's patients coming on faster than the garden can catch up. We've been having to slow down the incoming patients so we don't run out. The 5 patient cap put a lot of people out of a caregiver, + many dispensaries closed up on 8/1.

We only sell what we can grow. I want to know what's in the product we're selling to patients. Besides, I'm not so sure that anybody has legal means to deal with vendors at this point. I don't want to be the test case :)

I agree. We just all do what we do.

In the end, it's really not about the caregivers or MMCs or which model is better. I've been on both sides of that coin and they are both about the patients and the plants...or should be anyways.

yes. Now though, as Centers are where the money flows - they have an extra responsibility to speak up for patients and non-profit caretakers.

Releaf- be sure and go speak at that hearing, it will not go unnoticed in the community.
