I am sure I am not the only one that noticed that many area dispensaries go thru periods frequently where they do not have the variety, quanity or quality that would be ideal. This is certainly no ones fault, no one could predict the amaizing rise in demand. There is nothing more disappointing than grapping your cash and heading down to your favorite dispensary only to find out they do not have the strains you want or there is a very small quanity of them. Again, I am not pointing fingers or placing blame, just doing alittle whinning. Just check the forums and you can see where the "super" strains, those that we all are excited to see, have limited availability.

As long as demand out weights supply prices will not go down. As long as the state gets 1600-1800 referrals a day the price will not go down. Unless the state allows large,(I hate to use the word) commercial grows the price will not go down.

Everybody can grow marijuana easily, unfortunately that does not mean everybody can grow medicine. It take alot of knowledge, patience, and time to learn to grow medicine. I encourage everybody to do so if they are physically able and have the space. Practice makes perfect and it certainly will augment your costs.

I grow but still find myself at a dispensary looking for different strains that help my medical condition or while waiting for my crop to cure. There will always be the need for a dispensary type model. Most of us will never be
able to grow an adequate amount of medicine to meet our personal needs.

Patients who grow will save money but I doubt that it will impact the cost. Six plants is not enough to supply most people for the 4-5 months it takes ro grow and cure. It takes awhile for people that are not experience to increase there yield enough to cover their own needs.

Prices are not going down until supply goes up.
and lets not forget the 2 oz's at a time rule either...
