Same here. Haven't posted in ages, and this forum came into my head for some reason. And this was the first thread that I saw from a poster that I actually remembered

I remember your name, I think. But I will remember your avatar, never change it.

Maybe Jesus can fill the gaping chasm that you are trying to fill with drugs and gay sex.

yes this is a horrible idea because users just end up with low grade shit because they're not professionals.

Not only that but when big industry gets involved they end up writing the rules.

IIRC, that's why the measure failed in MI. The pols worked a deal with 5 (?) suppliers and locked everyone else out.

That's exactly what was tried in Ohio too, I think two years ago. Dedicated growing plots to only a handful or two, already decided on specific lots for specific investors. It was rejected, rightfully, though I think I may have voted for it at the time. Now we have medical, a system that's slowly getting spun up, and licensing still isn't all that great but far better than the ballot issue. Unfortunately this one was rammed through our State congress so that the government could get out ahead and control it how they want, not waiting until some ballot issues got passed that would have had different policies. Hopefully though we aren't far behind on legalization. Not sure if any group will put forward a ballot issue for recreational legalization in the next few years, they may be waiting until this system gets off the ground so they may add on to it properly.

Curious if the state, if they preempt the ballots again, would go the "grow your own" route for recreational decriminalization, or not do anything until a ballot issue passes for recreational. In this state, I suspect the latter, it's too Red at the state level.

I just eat the stuff.The problem with this is you have to be prepared not to have any plans for a few days.(i used to smoke joints).
For a few days!? Wtf kind of weed edibles are you eating. I don't do edibles any more after a terrible trip that led to months of anxiety. But even when I was and I had zero tolerance the high lasted no more than maybe 8 hours or so. But yeah that is indeed why I don't do them anymore. Vaping / smoking only for me.

The only problem I have with legal dispensaries is the over the top potency. Specifically, edibles are insane. That's not how to introduce or drive sales. Take a look at the cookies and bars. They are almost all two doses or stronger. When was the last time you only ate half a cookie?

Edibles are dosed for a wide variety of uses, as low as 5-10mg and as high as 1000mg.

That's the ongoing issue, many are simply money factories who don't care about the industry.

While true, it might be an issue of demand? If nobody in your area wants those edibles then the suppliers and vendors have no reason to cater to that market.

All I know is SoCal has no shortage of dispensaries with edibles of various strengths.

Knowledgeable people in dispensaries is critical to the long term profitability of the industry. Short sited money grabs leads to corporate control and bad relations, lowered profits and, poor service. As much ad I want pot to be legal everywhere, I don't want it at the expense of corporate control.

You eat as much as you want, if youre unsure or dont know how much to eat, ask the person selling it to you. If somehow THEY dont know too, either.........dont eat it........or take a bite and see what happens.

I consider myself an experienced user. However, many are not and either do not read labels or ask. I don't think it's unreasonable for dispensaries and suppliers to make a greater effort to communicate better.

With legality breeds competition - the best dispensaries will float to the top and the bad ones will drown.
