We have started turning away most vendors and have set up even more locals with the equipment, genetics and nutrient recipe to help us keep the number of strains we have on the shelf, they call us if they have problems with pests etc. This way we seem to be having more quality control of the meds we get. And it stimulates our local economy by spreading the wealth locally.
That is just one of many reasons I oppose HB-1284, just like you can't mass produce great wine the same is true with medical cannabis in my opinion, and HB-1284 sells out the small growers, and that slack will be taken up by the big money chain dispensaries and possibly give big tobacco the room they need to move in.
Good point! That's a fabulous idea with helping out the local suppliers... Sounds like you guys are on top of it... and I've always gotten good buds at your place... you guys obviously know what to look/lookout for!:thumbsup:
