Where the price needs to go (back) up is for the grower...

It costs alot of money to setup an operation, and alot of my time! Besides the fact that my bud is expertly soil grown, 100% organic, hand trimmed, and actually cured, it is never packaged in anything but glass mason jars.

I don't think I should have to take anything less than $4k a pound. The dispensary is going to sell it for $6400, making $2400, or 60% profit (not considering overhead).

The growers do the hard work. Dispensaries just sell the stuff.

Not that this matters because we all know that no dispensaries are still buying from non-centers:wtf:

Back in Wisco I was getting $5600 a pound, and people were basically fighting to suck my cock for this herb. That was wholesale!

I know that isnt going to happen here, but for less that $4k/lb its almost a money losing operation. I would be better off just growing for myself and having a "regular job".
Well, I completely disagree that $4k wholesale is anywhere near reasonable, if you can't do it for half that and be happy you should start looking at other careers. I'm not trying to be an ass but pretty soon there will be a lot of dispensaries growing excellent herb and I know for a fact that it is possible to wholesale for less than half of what you expect and still make a good living.

I almost can't wait for full legalization so the BS inflated prices from the black market are a thing of the past.
Dorje113 Reviewed by Dorje113 on . POLL: Will HB-1284 Cause Prices to Raise or Fall? Whaddaya think? If there are X number of dispensaries competing in the front range market, all of them legally allowed to grow as much as they want, this kind of competition could really drive prices down. Others think there will be fewer dispensaries, and they will conspire to keep the prices high. I seriously doubt it, as not ALL dispensaries will go along with price fixing, plus it is illegal, and this industry is going to be closely monitored. If I owned a dispensary, I know I could Rating: 5
