Quality has really taken a plunge!

[lampost]

Man, I've stopped in a couple joints lately and quality is really poor... these are reputable places that have sticky posts above...
I've been out of state since June and things were good before I left, however, the recent situation leaves plenty to be desired.
I might have to hike it up to Ned and see what's up with this Giving Tree place, although my red card is in storage... so I can't go anywhere new til I get that out. Kinda bummed.
The herb lately SUCKS!!

Ive noticed the same thing. Caregivers are no longer able to sell to dispensaries and the dispensaries are suffering. Everyone is required to grow their own now and the majority of these places do not know how to grow. They are about to realize how hard and time consuming it is to produce top shelf. They are selling the stuff that has been sitting in a safe somewhere because it didnt sell the first time it was on the shelves. Cologrower420 is about to find out the hard way that caregivers were producing all of the top shelf!

Quality here in Durango is still high. Four new dispensaries have opened recently. Two days ago I checked out a couple and was well-pleased with price and quality. A special shout goes to Chuck's Nursery who treated me very well as a first-time customer. They grow everything on site, and were happy to spend some time showing me the grow rooms and discussing strain selection. Good meds, good customer service.

I was in a new place the other day & Have to agree, their quality was the pits. I went there because my regular place had not had my favorite strain in quite some time due to 1284 I would assume & this place was fairly close & there aren't any decent MMC's that are close.

Anyway the day after I seen their junk, my regular MMC had my favorite strain back on the menu & I have since been in and picked some up & it was worth the wait excellent quality. In fact they had it lab tested.

I use mostly Indica's due to the nature of the pain I experience. I haven't had much luck with Sativa's, though I have decent results with Cindy 99.

Have any of you tried the agent orange from Grateful Meds...this strain at least for me is top notch...2 small bowls last nite about midnite and next thing I know it was 3am in the morning with head rush's and body happiness most of the nite until I passed out....the normal; pain in my shoulder was non-existint the rest of the nite...as far as I am concerned this medicine is A ++

I love the agent orange. it's the house favorite here. the first round buds grew out kinda weird, long and skinny but swollen, outstanding smoke! I have another one flowering now, about half way through.. Interesting thing is, my wife and I find it to be a stellar daytime smoke, and for me it is great for relieving muscle spasms/cramps. She says it keeps her up if she smokes it before bed. long story short, I got the beans from GM.

I agree that quality has most def taken a nose dive. CAM still has some quality but fewer fire strains for sure. Deltya 9 just totally sucks for flowers now(complete waste of time the last 3 visits). I stopped going to Patients Choice months ago... Wellspring has some fire but wont split 8ths...
one good thing... I went to Releaf Center yesterday and tho their flowers kinda suck they have the best hash selection/prices I've ever seen. I mean REALLY GOOD concentrates... Word!

Last time I was at the "new" CCF, their stuff looked alright. And I do mean, alright.

Even before all of this went down, I thought about 10 places from Metro/Boulder/Ned seemed to be doing it right, now it seems like Ned once again has everything on lock.

This "Sublime" I picked up recently at GM is NICE. Rock hard, iced out, beautiful smelling herb that kicks hard. The taste is average, as compared to GREAT strains like Bryan's SFV OG Kush or Jeff's Golden Goat, but you shouldn't need to puff on this very much to get the desired affect.:thumbsup:

Growing quality cannabis is quite a challenge during the summer months. I'm sure it proved to be quite challenging to some who have not experienced how hot it can get here in the summer.. Nothing new here though, the amount of quality herb always goes down considerably from the months of june through sept in the rocky mtn region..

Growing exceptional cannabis requires much more than labor/skill, I truly believe it is a labor of love, and the resulting product will be conducive to how much time and love went into that plant.. When it is quite obvious that the majority of centers out there are in this to simply make money, is it any surprise that the quality of the herb has dropped? I will not be surprised when c's and b's become the norm, and A grade medicine will be unaffordable to most. We pretty much are following cali's footsteps in that respect to a tea.. A+ herb in most clubs is 50+ $ an 1/8 usually all the way up.. Grow your own, just think if everyone that could grow did, there most certainly would not be a shortage of quality meds..

Personally I have had good luck with patients choice & their quality seems to be pretty decent IMHO. They have some Agent O in stock I may have to give it a try next time I am in.

one of these days I will make the drive to Nederland, but its a real hike for me as we are several miles east of DIA
