Agree, we have good poo poo here in Colorado. Any time I'm left wanting, it's cause I chose to cheap out. I'm stuck in Colorado Springs, but at least I got my med card last year.

Springs, too. That's Terpman & Rosin live resin above. Seriously worth watching Grant's for deals, think they have a gram and an eighth one up today. It's pricey compared to the discount shops, like Golden Meds or Green Source, but it's worth it. Avoid Green Source, there's a reason their weed is so cheap.

yea ive never liked edibles much because when i feel like getting high, thats when i want to be high, not like sometime in the next 30-90 minutes depending on what my body chemistry is like that day

Now that I work from home, I'll eat something at around 3:30-3:45pm on a Friday just to time it right for my slow rear end metabolism.

the only exception is air travel, cbd gummies are essential for air travel but thats about pain relief and dealing with anxiety not getting high

I have never flown while high but it seems like something that would be fun to try, even if it would make me fall asleep before takeoff.

I'm up in the north end of town and all the good shops seem to be in the western area, like off Fillmore. Still, anything in town is better than anything I was getting at Maggie's Farm, especially when it comes to price...

Hier graben!
I live in WA and there are only two dispensaries within 10 miles of me. Since Christmas, the lines at both have increased drastically (30-60 minutes wait) and available stock for certain things has dropped dramatically (like hardly any vape carts at one store)

Is anyone else seeing this? People spending their $600? I honestly have no idea.

Earwicker

here in CA the lines are longer simply because all businesses have much stricter limits about the number of people who can be inside a store. as of mid-December. we still have plenty of carts though

sometimes if people are afraid that dispensaries will be closed due to lockdown there will be a rush on them. i remember the night before the first LA lockdown the dispensary lines were crazy. but they never closed them, people here would completely lose their poo poo without weed

christmas would be too early for the stimulus checks i think. those only started a few days ago

Yeah, same here. I tend to take long-haul flights (when I take flights at all :() and it's tempting--though it would have to be with a known good edible. I don't want my mind to go to a place that has me freaking out that I'm inside a metal tube hurtling through the sky at 35K feet.

The shortest flight I've taken was around 2-ish hours -- NYC to Toronto. The idea of having to navigate a not-particularly-familiar airport AND transport myself to a hotel while high on edibles sounds...less than ideal.

That said, the LONGEST flight I've ever taken was like, 7-8 hours -- NYC to Oslo. The idea of having to be high on edibles on a long flight without the luxury of laughing uncontrollably at random YouTube videos ALSO sounds less than ideal. I usually sleep through flights no matter how long they are, so maybe I shouldn't even bother weeding my flights up.

Don't discount Grant's because of location. Prairie is the main store, but the other, on the southwest side, in a nicer location. Members only top shelf is $175/oz, but the concentrates are usually $20/g for terp sugar or budder, they don't do shatter. Solventless and live are excellent too. The prices are steeper, but it's quality and often has some sort of sale attached. I usually get the 4g/$75 jar badder/sugar deal. Veteran discount is standard, if that's relevant.

I grabbed an eighth of their golden goat flower today and a gram of strawnana badder. Their flower is so drat tasty. Bottom shelf stuff ($90-100) is almost exclusively wholesale bought, but still really good stuff. Owner picks his wholesale weed carefully, but it's still good poo poo, not quite house flower quality though.

Oh I don't discount them because of location, I'm just lazy and don't wanna have to drive ~10 miles. I really should check out some of that stuff when I'm down in the area though. I was just at AFW a week ago...

I've personally been shopping at TweedLeaf and NaturaLeaf, since they are the closest to my house. The former has good deal on flower that has been consistently pretty good, and the latter has a great selection of edibles and concentrates.

yea thats why i prefer cbd for flights. you dont get the high part but it can soothe anxiety and make it easier to sleep, plus i always get extremely bad knee and back pain on flights and it helps with that a lot

I don’t know how I hosed up my shopping trip in Denver so badly. I wanted to try a tincture and maybe splurge on fancier flower than I can get at home.

I got talked out of the tincture and left with a syringe of terp sauce I’m not really setup to use efficiently, and overpaid for the driest, dustiest 1/8th of prepack I’ve ever seen.

The place looked good on weedmaps 🤷‍♂️

I don't bother running to Denver since I have a card. When I did, I liked going to Pig 'n Whistle on Colfax. Consistent, reasonable prices, decent quality stuff.

Tweedleaf and Naturaleaf are both good too, for the reasons you said. I also like The Healing Canna, if for nothing else, they always have clones. Pretty good durban poison too.

If you swing by Grant's, try the Crunchberry.

im pretty sure some of the big tobacco companies, rj reynolds and maybe one or two others, have already invested in weed companies and dispenaries in the us and canada. they aren't going to brand anything with marlboro or camel yet because the push for legal weed was so closely associated with medical use and many of states where it was normalized first also have a strong anti-tobacco attitude. but like ten years from now once its become legal and mainstream nationwide those brands will probably surface when weed starts being marketed in different contexts in other parts of the country. weed that makes you a rugged outdoor individualist and all that bullshit. weed that makes you feel like you and your dumb buddies are willie nelson and kris kristofferson. good ole weed for fishing trips and concerts with dad and head injuries diving in the old quarry. they will also combine it with tobacco eventually and prerolled phillies blunts will be available at gas stations and corner stores nationwide

This is it.

When the laws change around the financial end of it, Marlboro, Camel, MillerCoors, everyone and their mother in the vice industry will be buying up established greenhouses for hilarious sums. Then the gold rush is truly over.

And the new round of laws against home grow will begin.

thats not true. cannabis is a global business and the tobacco companies are multinational entities. federal illegality in the us is not stopping them from investing in cannabis which, again, they already are.

A publicly traded U.S. tobacco company has bought controlling stakes in two Canadian marijuana producers and invested in a North Carolina hemp grower, making what is believed to be the first foray by a significant tobacco business into the cannabis industry.

Alliance One International, which trades on the New York Stock Exchange under the ticker symbol AOI, said it acquired a 75% equity position in Canada’s Island Garden and an 80% stake in Goldleaf Pharm. Terms of the transactions were not disclosed.

The owner of the largest U.S. tobacco manufacturer has invested $1.8 billion into a Canadian cannabis company. It also chose to discontinue its struggling electronic-cigarette products MarkTen and Green Smoke and oral nicotine product Verve. Altria initially takes a 45 percent ownership stake in Cronos Group Inc., a Toronto-based provider of medical and recreational marijuana. It has the option within four years of spending another $1 billion to acquire an additional 10 percent of the publicly traded company.

I love CBD for flights for this exact reason. It's the only thing that makes navigating the goddamn airport and flying 16+ hour flights a remotely enjoyable experience (I like flying and I like having a back and knees that work and won't kill me)

UK dynavap peeps might be interested in this great kit of a 2019 head, vapcap and coil all for £47. It's half the price of buying them separately. Mine arrived today, and it now means I have separate heads for herbs and extracts, allowing me to overheat the extract vapcap without too much worry.

Time to christen it.

I vape it using the dynavap with the dynacoil insert. The diamonds are pure THCa crystals, which turn to THC9 when you heat it up. It's a loving lovely high.

Weren't they doing cruise ship festivals for the past decade?

I feel like that's an indicator for how old I feel when I listen to 311. I get the same vibe from a lot of 90s music though, not a bad thing but it feels like a boomer trap. Never getting on a cruise though.
