Crashing Prices

Discussion in 'Medical Marijuana Usage and Applications' started by Gardenmaster, Apr 14, 2010.

  1. I have been a medical marijuana caregiver and patient in Colorado for several years now, and noticed the boom start last year. I figured with basic supply and demand that prices would drop, but I have seen prices for the top quality strains go from $500 / oz to $300 / oz. Now every person I know that uses medical marijuana is now growing, and with all of the outdoor and greenhouse grows I think that the market will become flooded and prices will drop to $150 / oz this fall, I can't wait. :hello::wave::D:wave::hello:
     
  2. That's awesome for you. Us East Coast tokers though, not so much. Maybe you can hook me up, :).
     
  3. i to live in colorado, i dont htink the price will drop that drastically, but i have most definitely noticed a drop in prices.

    i just found a place that sells 35 dollar top shelf eighths...fucking aweome!

    i got some purple sour d, and organic sour d yesterday! the purple is a strong indica, while the organic is 90% sativa. awesome mix!
     
  4. Wow yellow, you got hooked up. That's awesome.
     
  5. pshh PA home of the highest prices for the shittest weed god I hate my state
     
  6. Prices are dropping in CO but so is the Quality.
    Everyone and their dog/cat/goat hard to say what hair i found.. is growing and vending.

    Lots of Cali outdoor and just average smoke its the new shwag.
     

  7. Sadly for those of us who don't have cards the price won't drop that much that's why it's a good thing my dealer is my really good friend muahahaha by then my harvest should hopefully be done if not I must resort to buying
     
  8. haha this made me think of when i first moved here, i could never find swag!!! i hardly ever smoked it, but in atlanta i at least knew where i could get it incase i couldnt get chronic.

    now im sure this is even more true since literally everyone is growing!
     

  9. plenty of schwag in co too, just not as popular haha
     
  10. move a state over, ohio has dank 24/7/365
     
  11. I'll be long dead before this state sees any kind of legalization whatsoever. For me this effects nothing. Good for you though, if you don't think i'm happy as hell for you guys you'd be wrong.
     

  12. DC is medicinalizing soon so were set bro
     

  13. I hear that, I check out some of the stuff they are selling, and mine is usually in the top 5% of the top shelf stuff. They don't seam to take notice of the difference between a amazing trim and a large production grower's trim either, I spend about an hour per ounce trimming.
     
  14. Glad to here this. I may be moving to Denver for school in September.
     
  15. As the old mind-set of "It's a dangerous drug! :(", crumbles in the light of "It's a real medicine! :hello:", we will see a tremendous drop in price! The prohibition laws will fall like dominoes in the next couple of years- and the price will fall accordingly.

    Look- who is going to BUY when they can GROW THEIR OWN? There will always be a place for dispensaries/shops- new patients, pot snobs, crop failures, and the rich and lazy, will always buy, but this boom will NOT last!

    Too many "little old ladies" will have a "well lit closet" or a couple of plants among the roses! Cannabis, once the laws are changed, is not going to be a "money tree"- the price is kept high now, deliberately and artificially inflated by prohibition, but with seeds and clones everywhere.....

    I produce my own, indoors, for about $20 an ounce- power and ferts mostly (the set up, years ago, was less than $200. The first harvest paid me back double!). How often do you think I buy a $15 gram? :p

    I am expecting the price to eventually settle around $30 - $50 an ounce, commercially. But before all you growers go weeping and wailing around :cry: over "low" prices, ask yourself what other crop gets prices like that today? Not lettuce, not blueberries, not even ginseng, or goldenseal! And folks survive growing all of those, in spite of the lower price, and for the last three, a much longer growing period before harvest and being finicky about soil, so quit your belly aching and deal with it! Legalization IS coming!

    For you consumers-You want those great low prices? ARE YOU REGISTERED TO VOTE??? That's how you get to buy a $30 ounce! :D Vote for it! :D


    Granny :smoke: (legally puffing on my little pipe of $20 home-grown!)
     

  16. You're just not shopping in the right places :rolleyes:
     
  17. Looks like it's time for me to start cultivating some friendships in Durango (hippy central). :D I'm only 70 miles south of there as the crow flies.
     

  18. I was gonna say that too, lol... although it does get dry here sometimes and its very frustrating
     
  19. Just a quick update, as predicted you can get an oz of some really nice outdoor for $100 if you know the right people now. As stated previously I think the prices will continue to drop until it's legalized or until the feds crack down on the medical market pushing prices back up.
