He is talking of a new commercial medical Grow. They are licensing large Grows this year. Dispensaries will also have to all be re liscensed.
And current caregivers are not allowed to work in the facilities unless they changed that.
And an armored car company will make the most money transporting the product from Grow to store and such.
They got the seed to sale software ready to go. Everything will be scanned and taxed at each step too.
They are actually still looking at refining the actual terms of the law as far as a storefront and connected grow operation. It's looking good for that to happen. The thing is still going to be about getting that lic. and the point of sale lic. Lic. application fee's (none refundable) have now gone up to 6K per lic. Grow levels are still 500 - 1000 - 1500.
The ability of caregivers to actually work in a lic. facility and maintain their op. Is also being debated yet..... I say it's going to be an up hill battle, considering that those on the licencing board have to breathe though 33 feet of intestine to simply survive!
"Processing" step will be refining concentrates, and making edibles. The initial idea of a processing center actually doing the trimming and dry/cure is basically scrapped. The argument that it would cause too much damage to the medicine/product has actually sunk in!!
It will now be part of the grow operation. Defined and detailed records of all "off fall" is still being debated. Looks to be that all the material
not used as "buds" will be included in being transported and that "processors" will then have to destroy the "unusable" portions as they will be doing that with the off fall from processing. Again, heavily detailed reports on just what is used and not, including the disposal of. Has to be heavily documented.
The fucknut who spent so much time and money getting the new laws passed. So he could control the "Secure transportation" part. Is slowly losing his vision of big $ for little work investment. (Hussah!)
Sadly, I suspect down the road reductions in us caregivers numbers per patient. Are still going to come down. Especially if the recreational vote pass's this coming year. It (ballot proposal signatures) was successfully delivered to the state just last week or so.
As far as commercial grows go, been there, done that. Declined the offer to run the old ops I sold off.....Add plants and go for it ready.... These were soil operations. For the sake of quality and medical viability. I would be looking at organic soil operations and some synthetic soil applications to be the ones that hit the top shelves more then not.
Those running the hydro ops. These are the guys you would think about being profit oriented, and strictly scheduled. I would be inclined to say that those
not having
true experienced commercial operators/ set ups. Are going to have initial run problems. Including stupid mistakes like not sanitizing the whole damn enchalada before firing up. It
will happen and I'll bet they use naughty methods of dealing with "problems" to save the first few crops, to make that initial first needed profits to continue operational cost's.
If I was to invest in any new op. I would have to be DAMN sure I trusted my head grower to know exactly what he's doing....
I got an offer to move to Canada and run a provision/grow op just yesterday......In Toronto, or Aurora buy a well knowing relative. I'm not interested as the cost of living up in that area is simply insane!
A 50K home here, is over 3/4 to 1 million there.....Not my cup of tea. Now if I could get that kind of pay offer here..... I'll take it! Flat out like a lizard drink'in!
I know of folks looking at that provisioning/growing center as a place to not just fill the point of sale but to do serious breeding. On the same quality level as parts of Cali,Or and CO.... We'll see how that goes yet..eh?
It still boils down to. Who's going to pay upwards of $24 to $30 dollars a gram? Everyone will be tacking on the cost of their tax, to the next guy down the road. Greed sucks!
Well, there's my 2 cents....
