I’ve personally witnessed the bottomed out wholesale market in WA, with many processors and dispensaries offering prices for flower that are just criminally low. It’s been resulting in mass corporate consolidation of cultivators and a lot of cultivator bankruptcies.
Another trend that’s inevitable within many of the medical/adult use legal states is that they are going to become stuck with whatever mediocre mid strains they can get seeds/clones for and still get them in through their 15 day import windows. Because of this there is going to be a huge need for knowledgeable breeders, because without them many cultivation companies will truly be stuck with mids. This is going to escalate as a major issue until state law makers change the regulations, and they’ve never been known as proactive.
