Been thinking about this. And smoking the last wedding crasher fron dispo. I also finished slh.
They do taste different of course the lemon was suttle, the modern polyhybrids like wedding crasher even though it looks good you can tell they just did the cheapest hydro. So no harshness and faster cure but little taste or character in the smoke. So most of the modern shit will taste similar…there’s no “straight up” lemon or spice pronounced.
Im sure if u pay ull find boutique shit maybe they hit it with fudge factor x and charge u 20 more an eight.
Or your dispos just really suck and im luckier here for having half assed good at least.

@Ohiograssman hows the Build A Soil experiment going?
So far so good, all stacked up, 3 to 4 weeks to finish filling out. I will be snipping bong testers soon. I will give you a final report when its done. The light green plant next to it is Citronella, bugs wont even get close. The backyard is filled with a skunky blueberry aroma.Thats what freedom smells like. The plant is 6 ft tall.

i ran out
yes ironic but luckily my last corp oz
I found a seed (20+ actually) in some GMO i bought at a dispo a year+ ago on a lark. I found a really nice plant in it those seeds and have been running it since. Shit smells like hobbits feet and science fiction paperbacks and takes about 90 days to finish. It has sandy trichomes that make the best version of bubble hash at a very good 4% - 6% depending on the micron screen you are using. Thanks free dispo seeds.

yeah i never liked the gelatos though they are popular and everywhere these days. i guess it makes sense because this is what works commercially, but it’s not really that good. same issue as you said, easy to grow, high thc, good smell and taste, but the high is not long lasting and not that good.

there is an exchange in my town that is kind of underground (as in not commercial) but mostly a friendly grower kind of group that shares and trades. i plan on hooking up with them when i get a couple runs under my belt and have something to offer. they were a little hard to find bc they don’t really advertise but i suspect more and more of these kinds of groups exist where it’s legal to grow.

a lot of people have already talked about how a commercial legal market is incentivizing people to grow and ship fast. but i do think some craft growers have been able to break through in some legal states though i am not sure how much that’s possible everywhere. here in NM there is a micro license for growers/producers that is much cheaper i’m looking into. but i think long-term in a legal market something like a growers co-op structure would maybe work out in serving people who just want to buy, say, good quality organic but not from a dispo, or top shelf from a craft grower but also not from a dispo, or vice versa, growers who want to do the same, or buy/sell clones and seeds from locals, like an ongoing farmer’s market.
idk if it’s possible under the various legal structures here in the US but it’s what a lot of organic/local grown food markets used to be. they do have their own issues but it’s not quite the same as the incentives of a purely commercial, typical corporate business structure. i’m definitely looking into small scale micro license commercial growing in the meantime. i think that’s where to begin where i am anyway.

I am not sure but i think my state has laws against such a thing. One thing is clubs are illegal. U can’t go to a cannaclub or anything, cuz they’re not allowed, so probably it’s true for a co-op here.
I would have to look up this micro license, as well as this state’s laws. Ugh.
I’m not sure where i posted my pipe-dream in OG about how OG would have it’s own “dispo” and we’d be buying and smokin’ stuff from OG members and growers.

i’m not talking about a club where people socialize and consume cannabis. it’s a commercial structure, it’s just a different one than the typical corporate structure. Ace Hardware and Ocean Spray are both co-op businesses, albeit larger examples.

Bay Area?

no, northern NM. outside of Abq it’s pretty rural, though this is where most of the indoor growing was happening before it became legal. there’s still some old heads out here who don’t have big grows anymore but are doing it for themselves. and there’s a lot of hobbyists now and old farming families going back generations. so the knowledge runs deep if you look around a bit.
