problem with medical collectives

[romdog11]

im a medical patient and i found that when ever i smoke collective cannabis it doesnt get me high. Is there anything i can ask them prior to my purchase to make sure its real cannabis and is there any way to find out it is real cannabis and not just a hemp flower cured.
for some reason i feel like im being ripped off and this is happening at more than one collective. Does anyone have any advice? Does anyone own or work at a collective in so cali that could guarantee me real cannabis? im a medical patient and it really is discomforting not getting real medicine.

Don't know where in Cali you are, I'm in SoCal and I used this one: Home Page They were very professional, prompt and what I got is definatly real.

i understand what you're talking about romdog as i am a medical patient here in colorado and many times i find the medicine i'm paying 10-15 dollars/gram is lacking. i asked the owner and operator of our numero uno dispensery here what the deal was and he gave me a list of reasons.
1. different strains for different illnesses hense the detailed follow up from the dispensaries medical staff to see what works best and for who.
2. many dispensaries try to milk their medicine for all it's worth. meaning the herb you get in the end has been rolled on the keif screens to press pucks and then sell them for 30-70/gram keif depending on strain.
3. different growers = different potentcy of medicine. some dispensaries when starting out don't have a medicinal hook or if they know a few growers those growers might still be fine tuning their techniques.

as far as not getting the quality of medicine in cali my first response would be to of course grow you own, but that is not a realistic option for everyone so possibly talk to other patients via support group or the interweb. good luck with your quest...

yeah idk where in Cali ud find fake weed cuz surely a dispensary would be shut down for that, all the medicinals i got n cali were in the Bay Area and you could def tell it was medicals cuz it was strong, like real strong...pungent smell from 20 feet away or more..etc

what is that legal bud all about? is that just hemp with no thc? is that what they could be selling me if it has absolutely no effect.

I will bet if you try the link I gave you, you will see a huge difference. The gal brought me what she thought would work best for me to try after discussing at length my issues. The gal brought me 2 different bags and told me to mix them, and as a new member I got a free glass pipe. Prompt and descrite, I was very pleased. OH, and very potent, you and everyone else knows you have some pot there!
