well you posted correctly after, in b.c all patients are legally allowed to produce there own extracts.
and what makes you think these guys mixed stock and seeds in there trim for sale?
again talking out your asses cause your mad.
besides being top $$ for trim, I don't see anything wrong with this!
oh look there package is purple, now theres something to get mad about! hehe

did that say 8.60/g for irradiated trim? hahaha. i can't even believe that. you can get top shelf purple kush for 8/g around here. thats fucking insane lolol.

It's great that the LP's can sell their garbage now. They won't be responsible for having to produce quality extracts that way. It's cool that they can totally enable the totally illegal things that it's going to be used for without having to be responsible for it themselves, while adding to the risks they exist to curtail.

Should be a laugh when someone blows their house up running 'tane through metrum's trim, and they get their asses sued for it.

I trust the trim is also irradiated and passes all of the same tests?

I heard they have foreign workers binning their trim by the quality. So that's like A grade trim, and then AA grade trim, and then A+ grade trim, and then AA+ grade trim, and then AAA grade trim, and AAAA+ grade trim.

Sigh.... no... there is no A++ grade trim...... that would be stupid.

to think at one time people would do what ever they could to trash that shit!
Patients had issues with it. Garbage could be put against what you are able to store.
That shit got Binned asap!

Makes me wonder, are they trying to cash in on the program before the trial? either way, complete greed to compare the flowers to the leaves...unreal.

They are desperately low on product....it's offer trim or nothing. I guess they can't buy any from one of their friendly competitors. They aren't accepting new patients. Expanding by 50k sqft. Going public soon to keep Tweed company.

Always informative leaffan, thanks ;p i had my tinfoil hat on for a second thats all

These LPs are making it too easy for conroy in my eyes

of course no AAA+++ grade TRIM, but trim is trim and if you can use it for $1/g wtf not???

Trim isn't trim. "Using it" is a low bar to justify the asking price. I could use it to wipe my ass with. That wouldn't make it worth more by the weight. Wait a minute, it might though, being LP weed, after all.

There's still the truth that irradiated trim is irradiated trim. Growing your own, you would use trim because it's not garbage at all. I'm less certain why someone should be inclined to use garbage, just because they're not allowed to grow their own, and then add a premium price on top of that.

But why don't we draw an extraction on this 10 dollar a gram trim and also on a gram of this 10 dollar a gram bud that it supposedly comes from. No doubt it's still all sold by the batch and everything.

We can weigh the resin pulled from both of them and see what dollar for value it really has. Meanwhile, the people buying it will be selling the resin made from it for 100 a gram, despite the fact that it came from garbage, and still is.

The prices are ridiculous, but I don't have an issue with the product. Can't sit here and say there's stems in it until someone actually sees the product.

Shake / ready to roll / bottom of the bag - they sell it at CCs, they use it to make the edibles there and they do the same thing - they mix the shake from all the strains and then they sell it for like $3 a gram. It still works, patients don't complain about it and the lack of consistency is not an issue.

Trim nice buds and sell the shake separate - you get the best of both worlds because you offer nice looking buds to high-paying customers and an affordable medicine to the others.

Leaffan has it right. They must be low on product and in order to not look like they have nothing to offer they are selling shake. Look ma we got production waste, I mean product. Seems like its priced so no one will buy it but yet looks like they have a product to offer so investors don't get spooked?

IF it was priced at $.25 per gram. Besides who wants to smoke leaves since making anything else out of it is illegal and I'm sorry but don't ever call production waste medicine.

I don't believe they're saying this is production waste. Talk to your local CC.
It's selling as medicine today for $3.

It's not like this is new or crazy or outrageous.

Your rite oddish, club i go to sells house mix at 7$ a gram but its popcorn lower buds +shake (more popcorn then shake) its actually kinda nice to roll with and get all the qualities tied in but the MMPR is a program held to higher standards but they arent proving that at all. First thers LPs buying biker weed, now we are selling trim? When did it become OK to have MMAR home grown for the tightly regulated system? Im not a member but does it say the THC/CBD levels of the shake? if so, how does it compare to the flowers?

If someone knows of how i can get it tested id pay for it, then id send the results to conroy.

Testing is expensive, but I started a thread a while back and got some good replies on ways to get it done.
I don't know anything about Mettrum - to be honest, they haven't had enough product available for me to give a shit about what they're doing yet.

I'm just getting tired of the back and forth - first it's the "people's plant" and anyone can grow it, but then not everyone is allowed - LPs actually are only allowed to sell part of the "people's plant" - the rest of the "people's plant" should just be thrown in the garbage.

I'm pro-LP, pro-CC, pro-homegrow and pro-legalization. Yes, I can be all of these things - if legalization occurs than the LPs and the CCs just become providers and homegrow becomes like making your own beer/wine in your basement. If I can get affordable shake from an LP when I just want something cheap, but I can also get some real nice looking buds when the time and finances allow, I could live with that.

For what it's worth, I think you'll see more of the LPs start offering this and it will be offered at a better price.
The closer the court date gets, the more affordable options/alternatives I think you will see.

Here's hoping the judge knows the difference between bud and trim.

Ive heard conroy say in a video thats there is numerous challenges canada wide, i wonder how many exactly...if conroy fails (witch i doubt in a BC court, where mmj laws are almost always born) im sure some other of these lawyers will hopefully get it done. I am also in favour of a program where all walks of life and income can access there medication.

There are a lot of other challenges. Over 200 of them. All have been "stayed" by the courts pending the outcome of the Allard case in Feb/15. This mass staying is strange because some of the cases do not have similarities with the Conroy / Allard case. Appeals are already on the way up the court chain.

Just thc / cbd testing is not expensive, that changes when you get into heavy metal / bacteria / mould testing which is expensive.

I am kinda ignorant on the LP testing when it comes to "batches"...I assume ( yeah I know ) that you can't have different strains in a batch. How can they mix 5 strains or batches and get it through testing?...Would love to hear from someone more knowledgeable than myself on this...

Regarding the trim...I know my trim is a very good product. I would never view it as garbage. I think the quality of the trim is dependent on the quality of the plant that you are trimming.

I would have to wait and see what they actually ship before I make any assumptions, but I would not be surprised if the label comes with 5 different readings off all the product mixed together. That would probably pass the regulations, because it's just the product combined into one container.

I also look at Tweed's labels, etc and it doesn't seem that THC and CBD testing has been nearly as important to HC as the cleanliness tests.
