This area is sort of a retirement community for hippies, bikers and teachers. Don't ask...I do no know why teachers.

I went to Organix in Glendale, they didnt know anything about their medibles as to what they were made with, budder, coconut oil, or tincture...

I picked up the highest thc labeled bud and got the hell out of there..

Papa's OG.. tastes like chemical but high is not bad..

Oh the irony...
Arizona Organix is all over the place touting ORGANICALLY grown medicine.
Chemical aftertaste from a dispensary with only organic melds is extremely fishy. If the medicine is donated by an outside source it is their due diligence to take every step in order to uncover the production method. Unless the chem flavor was a bud characteristic that shit is not organic, it's not even flushed. @rottenboy will you post a pic of the package label, it would be much appreciated. Seems everybody is growing organic because they don't want to print out labels detailing their use of synthetics.
Wich is actually a department violation...
I would be hard pressed to believe that majority of the operators understand organic because the uneducated have been consistently told or simply think harvest yields don't compare to hydro...
Concern for the healthiest/safest/best quality cannabis is absent with the above mindset.

I'm pretty sure the herb isnt organic or at least what I tried from there. Once you've have proper natural soil grown herb anything else doesn't compare imo.

One dispensary owner I spoke with would like to produce 100 lbs a month to start. He wants to supply other dispensaries with whatever grows big and fast, quality isn't an issue.

@headtreap what did the label on the package claim...
I don't remember reading anything that mentioned how it was grow or what was used. Only thing I saved was my receipt with all my card info and price including sales tax lol. It is what it is I guess. My beef with the whole deal is the lack of quality control. For example, in Calif they have Clean Green Certification where they inspect grow sites to make sure everything checks out in the manner in which the crop is grown, and a standard agricultural crop inspection. I think that is very important to the very ill especially.

I've seen a lot of gardeners do some disgusting shit to their plants around here and it keeps me away from them. Those people always trying to make that quick buck will always fail haha. Goodluck.....

One thing I did forget to mention is this AZ medical program is still in it's infancy so it's up to us to make things change for the better.

Growing pains are growing old!

As long as he is not trying to sell the meds under a guise of being something that its not i.e. organic vs inorganic.
To each their own business plan, too bad selling poor quality isn't a violation of the rules lol.
have to play by the states rules if you want your business to last.

Bump. Anyone's opinions changed? Prop 203 isn't in its infancy anymore. No-grow rule still stands. Dispensaries still don't disclose their Miracle-Gro'ed Eagle 20ed horta-oiled bullshit. Grow ops still look like abandoned warehouses with unsealed environments cleared out by chemical odor control. Dispensaries still smell like grow products instead of weed. They still flash dry the shit and store it out in a moldy trailer. Media outlets still laud the greatness of a 'medical marijuana' industry who does not produce even recreationally acceptable Cannabis. No excuses. This shit is sad. They stopped pinching and selling larf as top shelf after being called out on it. Lowered the prices so the lcd target customers stopped complaining.

I spend half the year in this state because my joints can't take the cold weather after a brain and spinal injury on top of auto immune disease caused by a pharmaceutical. I abandoned all western manmade bullshit, stopped selling everything but weed years ago, and finally putty weed slanging hat up when I became a "snow bird". I really thought mmj was all about whattI was and was thrilled to support such a progressive industry. Yet I now have to get my herb sent in the mail, in the mmj state of AZ.

Cant wait to see the dispensary bullshit happen back home when they open next year. I actually got a Az ID just to check out dispensaries. I knew it wouldn't be southern home grown quality, or east/west coast black market quality, but my God.... P2p isn't much better, man, these guys will buy and sell anything. There's maybe 2 collectives that dont suck and they grow mids and have to water wash half of it. Youd figure local weed growers would reject the fake ass Terpenez-ed reject bullshit they get from Cali when they run out of their 60 plant harvest that cost them 5k and 5lbs annually in loophole licensing. This industry is 8 years old now and thats what it still looks like .

And why it pisses me off so bad? Because dispensaries made everyone stupid about weed. And made me a criminal all-over again. People are calling bud that smells like the garden section at home depot "loud fire dank" and calling puro primo 90s era shit "something wrong with it, it smells like it spoiled or something". And the South has the lock on all the shit people out west like Kevin Jodrey wish they had. We ain't in it for money though. We don't breed for yield. Shit half the growers let their crops pollinate. And its that old school buzz. These dispensaries cant raise your eyebrow. There is no 'warm and fuzzy' some of clientele would always demand. Their ain't no 600 pound midget on Valium couchlock purps. Even in the Bay Area I've seen dispos wit menus that either smelled like whatever fruit name was on the jar, or hay. Listen, if the Gsc smells like hay, and the Strawberry Cough is stained orange and smells like strawberry syrup instead of Strawberry Cough, it should be fucking obvious. Cali weed is ruined by legalization too I guess. But at least theres options. In Az you smell that fuckin same Blueberry Tasty Puff, Floralicious, Final Flush or whatever it is on every damned strain with Blueberry in the name. And on plenty of other strains. Biker Kush, Sensi Star. You dont have to know and love these strains as well as I do to be offended by the obvious contamination and attempted fakery of natural medicines!

Az citizens are the definition of what my kids now call "NPCs". We used to call them 'tares'; fakes posing as reals. Placebo people. Az is 90% fake people posing as humans. If you cant tell ferts from terps, youre not a real human. I dont care if your nose was blown off in Afghanistan, you can tell the difference smoking the shit if your a real human. I guess the mexicans must have been selling what they scraped out from under a lawnmower as weed back in the day for anyone to think this plastic Styrofoam shoe factory shoe spray Miracle-Gro hydro garbage, or this milky chicken shit hotdog water rotten peanut shell and lemon peel "organic" abomination is even remotely acceptable in a medical marketplace.

Come to think of it, I don't think Ive ever seen a pregnant woman in AZ. Are they really growing fake people in test tubes out there? Is Az not just some scammers playground and corporate testing field but a giant government experiment?

Can anyone born and raised here fill the internet in? Why do people want wet weed? Why does everyone think clones go bad? Why do they freak out over finding a seed when their bud is 10% neem oil by weight? Why do dispensaries sell Lemon OG that smells like a bitter lemon peel sitting in a window seal for a week, or Roze that smells like cantaloupe rinds and mango seeds?

You ever buy some cheap lemon dish soap and it's start smelling like plastic after you go nose blind to the cheap lemon scent? People who shop at dispensaries call that "tasty". Shit I've even gotten actual dial soaped buds from Trumed, every dick riders favorite place to recommend for quality. Their dark green leafy larfy used to consistently smell like karanja and stay spongy. Fake bitter lemon on some Sherb. Green Crack that reminded me of less than average brick imports. Top shelf. Lol. Now they grow in spun rock fiber and their bud smells like kiwi shoe spray. Their outdoor, the fuck heads sold me some chem smelled like some decent mids on the display but was absolutely soaked in some growstore artificial resin/slow burn additive. Dont know what it's called but I seen it in LA before on some Blue Dream. It smells like plums or something. And blows thick clouds of fake resin that fucks up your lungs throat and sinuses. If anyone wants to say I don't know what I'm talking about,all I dont know is the names of all these bullshit contaminants because real growers don't go to grow stores. Real growers go to farms and nurseries. And grow dank miles away from civilization so you cant find that dank aroma.

So that's the best prop 203 has to offer. Indoor sucks. Outdoor sucks. Their black box sucks. You even gif glass greenhouses in southern Az and people calling it quality! Everyone tells me "this is the best, absolute dank" then a new grower is hyped up and gets put on the top shelf. "Oh now this is the best, absolute dank". L OG smelling like rotten peanut shells. wtf. Cookies smelling like botanicare. Smh. Nebula smelling like fake chemical banana scent. Watermelon strains from Bodhi smelling like milk. I through away so much trash from dispensaries before giving up. Far more than I was able to smoke. Shit I wouldn't even give to the homeless. Npcs buying it all day every day not batting an eye.

This whole "if you cant say anything nice", handing out trophies to dispensaries with shelves full of popcorn that smells like shrooms, writing their own reviews all over the Internet, paying crackheads for reviews bullshit needs to end. All the REAL growers need to get together and actually get something done. Present a case to the state. WHY DOES THE 25 MILE RULE EXIST?

I see discussion all the time in Co about dispensaries smelling like grow products, selling unflushed bud and hay. You'll never see any discussion like that in AZ. Yall just wanna hide in the shadows forever? Setting a great example for this global industry who is literally setting the country up for low standards and global weed empires. Just fucking look at what clubs get shut down by the feds. When ALL dispensaries are federally illegal,why does a federal agency pick and choose? Same reason Hortapharm sold all those primo genetics the DEA collected and no one out west has anymore?

Yall are becoming bigger targets by the day the more you keep quiet about the insanely unfair monopolized industry. 25 mile rule in every state pretty soon. Since they were able to pull it off in Az where 97% of the adult population would be hit with drug AND tax charges for growing a plant you can buy in fucking showrooms.

You got one company holding 12% of the grow permits because your bribed lawmakers rejected every applicant who didn't have a million in the bank. And these lucky 10 time lotto winners got dispensaries in multiple states. Owned by foreigners (who probably hate weed) through "management expense" loopholes.

Its the most fucking sad thing Ive ever seen happen to this beloved plant. It tops paraquat, burning of rual crops, and jail time over a twamp sack. The drug war has been won folks. Th data collected tin Az, a billion pounds of negative grade garbage sold a year, its over. They couldn't beat us so they took us over. Now youll see dudes going to jail for selling a joint on the street. Not because it's weed, but because it doesn't have a tax stamp on it.

Fuck legalization. Fuck medical marijuana. Until people are allowed to grow the shit it's phoney legalization, fake just like all the people who support the 25 mile rule, write reviews for their place of employment, and call the cops on clubs and deliveries.

You are not alone.... it blows my mind how many people cant tell the difference and just go off names they here from songs or movies.. az used to get fire from cali. Shit it still does. But even people in the streets want these hydro trash bud or fake Terps pens for cheap. "Because their friend said it cost that much at his dispensary". There is a tiny amount of people who know what true loud is but most are moronic idiots puking falacies... I still love knocking people socks off with a fire o.g. from out of state. Hell my gf didnt know what good weed was till she met me..
