Cannabis lacks flavor these days because a majority of it is grown in coco and hydro systems with low cost salt based nutrients instead of living soil which is lower cost and brings out the best terpene /anthocyanin content in cannabis. The whole industry is just a cluster fuck of corporate shills screwing those who have been pioneering this industry back when it was illegal to do so out of the very industry they built in the underground. Anyone should be able to grow and sell their bulk flower if it passes tests and is free of contaminants. But only the rich who pay to play get to do so and the rest of us are left cutting prices down to bargain discounts to compete with people who would rather support corporations for the dispensary experience rather than someone who produces quality cannabis free of chemical pesticides and nasty salty nutrient residues. The industry is a joke. Fuck beating the streets the only way to do that is truly ending prohibition and allowing people of all financial backgrounds to enter the industry. And I’m not talking in low wage grunt labor positions. People who can handle a 4k-8k grow should be able to market their cannabis legally instead of being relegated to the grey market where they face fines and arrest over growing a plant.

It’s a violation of our constitutional right to say we can only grow x amount of plants when those buying access to the industry can grow warehouses and fields of cannabis. But now that roe v wade has been repealed by a bunch of conservative corporate puppets it’s becoming painfully obvious we don’t have the rights we are entitled to.
