I have yet to make the trip, im in a neighboring state and a friend has made the trip 2 times and what he came back with was garbage. The first time much worse with some premature supposed gohst train haze, had to be extracted. I. Have extracted enough that u cant fool me really. So i think to myself its either him who extracted it or it was purchased already extracted. He also had some wack called voodoo. My girl said it reminded her of walking thru a hay field. Seriously it was a joke along with the GTH that smelled nothing of cannabis. The 2nd time he brought kosher kush, blue dream and pineapple alien. He said the PA was best followed by BD, then kosher. I have grown much blue dream and when i saw it i nearly laughed out loud. The bud looked like swag ass shit with way to many green leaves on the bud, and no smell. PA was brittle just like extracted herb no smell taste weak. The kosher had the best smell no visible crystals got me baked but i think should hav smelled better and tasted better.
Now i am asking anyone who may know, are the really s3lling trash in the dispensaries? By far what i hav grown didnt belong in the same store as what he brought. From supposedly the best dispensary in denver. Is the dispensary buying premature weed? I thought they would buy nothing but the best. Is the dispensary extracting weed and selling it or are they buying it to? He paid 100 a zip. Cheaper than any real kill will go for.. you know weed was always great because no way to cut it. But not anymore, got people all over my state with extracted weed and dont even know it. Its a real shame. Any insight would be appreciated. Thank you in advance anyone who has the time to reply.

I suspect that with demand so great the dispensaries have to buy anything they can get their hands on to put on the shelves. Growers can't grow it fast enough. So yeah.... probably lot of premature, shit weed on the shelves.

I dunno.... just guessing the obvious...

I'll also guess there's a lot of newbs coming out of the woodwork to buy the shit and they wouldn't know the difference between good and bad. So it sells...

A buddy went for a visit to check it all out and he was saying that some of that dispensary schwag is going for 300-450 a zip!!!!???? WTF. For the very same strains that sell around here for 200 zip.

My gf just moved here from colorado about a year ago. She says the government taxes are so high there that the black market is alive and well and will be always.

THIS. High demand from people who don't know what good weed is leads to low quality offerings.

I'm not sure about the extracted part, it sounds to me like y'all got stuck with early chopped, 'Colorado cured' (flash dried) second or even third grade garbage. Then again, if you're really paying a Franklin per zip, you're going to get garbage.

PM me if you'd like some recommendations about where to visit your next trip. Which way are you coming from? That would help inform my choices of where I'd suggest.

I'm really surprised but in Washington they have this stuff locked down right and bud you buy is really nice stuff. Depending on the shelf, you can get some really good stuff for 200-250 oz I've heard of 165 for a oz too just A grade not bad at all but you can compare relatively speaking. The whole part of this is did this come in any packaging or was it a plain bag? Regulations in CO are unknown to me but WA has that childproof packaging or rather resistant until it's opened. Anyways my point is maybe this dude is just grabbing this shit off the highway and naming it as he sees it.

There are better dispensaries and not so better ones here in Colorado. The current economic situation lifts all boats, even those leaking like a spaghetti strainer!

Ya'll need to thank BC Canada for introducing ya'll to fine weed back in the 80s and keeping ya'll in good supply of that fine weed up until ya'll finally learned how to grow it on your own.

Jus sayin....
I got some fine BC BUD in college 2009ish. Can't say it was absolute but definitely holds a candle to whatever this original posters delivery man got...for 100bucks a zippy.

I've lived in CO for 5 years now and yea, you CAN buy shitty weed but you can also buy top shelf weed which is really good most of the time. I think the other thing that comes in to play is whether you buy medicinal herb or recreational herb, the difference can be night and day, but I'm guessing if your friend is coming from a neighboring state he's only going to recreational dispensaries.

*Edit: Also +1 to what ttystikk said, it depends on where you go too. Just like any sector of the economy there are shitty businesses and there are good businesses. Maybe your friend can try a different dispensary when he comes next time?

25$ retail on slice of 29% thc. No complaints from me. Maybe try another dispensary. Instead of "Supposedly the best dispensary in the state" haha

Out of state is only a quarter purchase a day per person per dispensary. You can go to multiple dispensaries tho. Packaging is more secure for edibles than flower
