why is the anchormans face built like Frylock from Aqua Teen Hunger Force? Lmfaooo
Bull people just go to the black marjet when stores get greedy
Dude they just need to sell thier stuff for cheaper and look for better growers because first thier weed ia dry af and over priced unlike your regular pulg down the street he’ll sell you and 8th for 20-30 and its gonna be some bomb ass weed
Maybe don’t sell grams of wax for $90
It’s not low demand.
It’s over growing and flooding the market.
And it’s not selling cause most of it is 💩 product.
Also the clown that made the comment that he can grow a pound for 30 bucks, doesn’t know his ass from his elbow.
nobody wants that diet weed from dispensaries
Hector and Sleepy got the the best weed home grown in their basement
i can take care of that
Get some RSO / Phoenix tears instead of 🚬 smoking. It’s 25 bucks a gram and it lasts forever because it’s so potent. The size of a grain of rice will knock you out for about 8 hours
It’s cheaper to buy it on the streets, that’s why.
Cant many legal states citizens grow their own personal plants? So whats the surprise here? 😂
Yeah this is false. Majority of people smoke weed. They need to get it somehow and they aren’t buying from someone on the street in legal states lol
because they took so long to make it legal and tr sell it at the same price or for more then the dealer down the road
Dude… weed is suppoed to be cheap. these companies deserve to go down 🙂
the stupid part is just to make it ok to grow your own.. its stupid government..
Low demand my ass
That’s is going to turn them into smugglers that have to get rid of the product
Best time for the consumers. $20 8ths of good stuff.
Because we still support our street dealers
These clown are getting rich trust they just fronted on taxes
Cause the homie can get that loud pack for half off while y’all tax tf out of it. Let us GROW it stoopids
But not in Florida
Marijuana is a spanish word and ILLEGAL to use in US English Common Laws. All marijuana laws are automatically nule and void for not defining the plant in English. Law 101.
just get high from your own supply
Goood locking black men up for years so y’all can legalize for profit is so funnnnnnnny 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
Yeah i would say they over estimated the legality of weed.😂lol everybody thought they was going get rich off weed,the dumbass government isnt going to allow it.its all downhill now,until the government lifts the laws on it.maybe all these old senators will retire permanatly
What is Marijuana, officer?
its not low demand is to much weed in the system supply AND demand
I live in NJ. Cannabis is both recreational and medicinal. I don’t normally go to dispensary bc they are highly expensive. So I usually get my cannabis from a legit adult grower.
Because the prices are all over the board.. There needs to be an iso standard on the price!
lower your price
Craig always got deals
Weed tends to alter everything about your body and mind and not always for the best, usually not, so no surprise
Here in the UK we sit and only dream of having problems like this. Our politicians spend there time arguing at each other over personal issues and make no laws for the people as our daily headlines show. Our drug laws are 50 years behind everyone else and we have the worse drug use statistics in the world. Our leaders wont admit the documented facts are correct and that they are wrong. I think that’s why the Green party is making huge strides. We can only hope that they can keep going and bring some sense to this issue.
Pass a law and send it to canada
So what happens is that they make Cannabis legal in a State and people go crazy for a couple week’s so the sales are big $$$ then after a month or two all that Hyped starts going down and so do the sales 😂😅 you can’t expect people to buy cannabis all week long
They have rent and bill’s to pay Lmao they might be able to buy a couple Grams in a month but people have a Life and not everything is about smoking weed all the time
Cause our local hoods got all the options we need for the best prices
In economics its called "race to the bottom"
What they talking about people buying more weed then chocolate now days
This is normal, in the 90s there where at peak 1500 coffeeshops in Amsterdam, today 160, i think it will have the same direction in US that in the end 10-20% of growers,dispensarys,companies will survive after initial boom years.
Start selling a oz for 50 bucks how they did with Reggie back in the day
To expensive. In Vermont there is a pot tax and a state tax. For a 1g of oil vape its 75.00 plus 8.50 for pot tax and 7.80 in state tax unreal who can afford it 🤔 😳
It’s amazing how long they’ve managed to drag their feet on legalization. It’s like everything else with this government now. We’re supposed to spend 20 or even 30 years debating things before anything happens. It doesn’t matter what voters want. In the case of marijuana legalization, polling has shown that majorities support it, even among Republican voters. It’s not legalized because only interest groups and wealthy donors matter. They can’t even manage something as simple as weed legalization so there’s little hope they can accomplish anything else voters want. It’s a joke. And of course you’re going to have low demand when people are expected to pay 70 bucks for an 1/8th.
😂🤣😂 What kind of consumer would knowingly buy government weed???
7 months off this garbage, good riddance
Over priced garbage just what we need.
stimmy checks ran out so no more funds for weed…
Not low demand, high prices. Ya’ll basically want us to fund society through our cannabis use.
everyone and their brother started growing
Had to stop smoking 2 months ago having a new child.I swear to god im scared thinking weed is the next drug that they gone sneak fentanyl in it be careful people
It’s absolutely stupid that it’s not legal federally, still absolutely a crime against humanity.
