I Grow atleast 6 Solid Caregivers who arenʻt MMC affiliated. A++ Quality Medicine is never more than $255 per Oz, and an expansive plethora of great flavors.

The unfortunate part is a vast majority of Caregivers and MMCʻs are in it to make a quick buck and most of the sh!tty/sketchy Caregivers are also selling to non patients!!

Of course a grower is going to look at any retail price and think it absurd. That $50 shirt you bought last week cost the mfr 39 cents in Malaysia.

If the wholesale price that shops are paying growers is around $4.50 / gram ($2k / lb), then $20 seems like highway robbery. Until you figure that there is a full retail operation incurring salaries, insurance, infrastructure, licensing, distribution, etc. Tons of overhead.

The effort and expense of growing myself is far outweighed by the awesome convenience of buying any of a dozen different varieties from a dozen different shops at a higher price.
