Ok so more of a scaling issue then? They couldnt figure out how to grow it with low enough operating costs to be competitive and sound like theyre running out of money.

in the initial LP Gov meeting with potential LPs..

there were think tanks..the ones [normal people who grew weed and knew about the market and growing]

who wanted become LPs... had great ideas

HC wrote them all down ..complimented the prospective non corporate LP wannabe's for their input

.......then of course ignored it

..this is the outcome
