Week 5

in #cannabis7 years ago

Good morning steemit! Another beautiful day in The Valley of the Sun. A little overcast but only 75 degrees right now. I'm so happy the heat hasn't arrived yet! Another day of sideways trading, Doesnt discourage me much though. I'm expecting steem to be $8-10 by the end of the year so. I've got some Week 5 photos to share with you guys today! Enjoy!

First we have some Space Queen. Sativa leaving for hybrid, Romulan x Cinderella 99. A beautiful plant, that grows pretty large sticky buds, and has a super uplifting high, and a sweet taste similar to Cindy 99.

Next we have the legendary blast from the past, Grape Ape. Not sure about her ancestry but it's infamous fruity flavor has been bringing stoners joy for several decades. Indica with a sedative, yet not overwhelming high. I grew up toking on Grape Ape so it's quite the pleasure to have her in the line up!

Ahh and at last the chunky chocolope. I know I've shared photos of her before, but not at Week 5. She Chocolate Thai x Cannalope Haze. Sativa with a kick! A rear head high that leaves you feeling refreshed, and ready to concours the world. She has a truly unique, musky taste you can't find anywhere else. If you are looking to take your taste buds, and your head on a journey, then look no further than Chocolope!

You can find these at several Az dispensaries! My favorite being Mint dispensary on Baseline and Priest in Tempe.

Looking great! So will you close up shop when heat comes or do you run ac?

Definitely not. This a commercial facility so we have industrial ac units. We have 4 flower rooms with 60 1000 watt lights, and 3 rooms with 80 1000 watt lights, plus a couple veg rooms, and a nursery. Our ac works great, so we keep it cool and get some crazy colors!

Damn! What’s the medical laws over there? I know subcool of tga said fuck California and packed up to set up shop over there.

Pretty much everyone can get a card, but it fucking costs $300 a year. As far as regulations, their are almost none pertaining to product safety. It's super easy to get away with selling flower with mold and pesticides if you want. The best defense is that the good dispensaries test it themselves even though it's not required by the state, and they will send back flower to the farms with mold. All the state cares about is that every gram sold is taxed. They make it difficult to grow your own at home because almost no areas in town are zoned for it. I personally would like no laws and regulations in the industry, but if you're going to have them they should at least be safety regualtions instead of tax regulations.

They just want that money. What a shame. Same over here in cali so much stuff riddled with pesticides. Only good thing about legalization is they will start mandatory testing. But only in 6 months. There basically giving people time to push their poison. I said fuck despencersy awile ago due to this issue. Only smoke my own now.

They're super expensive. I like live resin but the shit is $70-80 a gram at the dispensary, and RSO is $50. Mid-grade flower is cheap there, like $130-150 a zip, but the top shelf is usually like $300. They make a killing, I know for a fact they rarely pay more than $2400 a unit for the best of the best, and turn around and sell it for$5-$6000. The industry isn't huge here so I know a lot of the growers, and extractors. I mostly smoke my own flower, and i have some close friends that have one of the best extraction companies in Az so I get my dabs from them. My cousin owns a distillate company so I get my cartridges from him. No reason to go to the dispensary except every once in a while there is something That catches my eye I have to try. Eventually prices will come down as the industry gets more established. So much of the cultivation process is being automated as well. The way the market seems to be going is towards mid grade flower for first cheap. That's what most smokers want and can afford. They are building huge automated facilities with the goal of pushing out $800 units all day. There will always be a market for top shelf, but the majority of smokers are looking for deals.

And the pharmaceutical industry took a huge interest in Az for some reason and spent tens of millions of dollars campaigning and eventually beating the recreational bill in 2016. It's on the ballot again this year though

Good post man and good look for your future 😀
