Micro brewery.....Micro growers.

Can't for the life of me think why it could not be done. Hence the idea of the Micro grower. Small amounts for High prices. I'd think there was a market for something like this but it would have to be non radiated and grown 100% naturally. Not to mention that it should have the best taste and effect. Something to look into. Who says you have to grow for the masses? Who says you cannot stay small and cater to a select few? :idea:

That would be a great business idea if it were a product for the general public, but it does not fit with HC's mandate of providing access to cannabis for medical use. That's not to say a micro-grow operation isn't viable, but the premium weed at inflated prices angle sounds like marketing for a recreational consumer that legally doesn't exist at the moment.

This is already being looked into. Most patients I know won't pay these artificially inflated prices, sorry. Cannabis is the most ridiculously over priced commodity already even at $5 a gram. Could you imagine paying $15+/g for some corn? How about some wheat? 100 dollar loaf of bread! If recreational use was legalized I could see it being viable. Doesn't seem very ethical or moral though to be charging these prices in a medical model. They'll use words like "care" and "compassion" while they rape you financially.

Price won't be a consideration to the ones with cash. The ones who THINK they want the best and paying for it is their idea of getting the best. Trying to save wealthy people money is not something they're concerned about when it comes to having 'the best'. It's all in advertising lol

I presently don't buy any meds from brewery's large or small...
fail to see how this is comparable,when your supposed to be considering a patient market,and
not a recreational market.....
very very transparent....
from my experience recreational users are not all that wealthy either,though I'm sure there are exceptions.....

I see where gb123 is going with this. It appears to me that he or she wants an exclusive product.. But, given that currently 70%+ of the enrolees in this program are at or below $38g/year, and no health plan is covering mmj ,his or her market share will probably a select few. I hope that gb123 invests everything into this venture. Can't see gb123 getting very far with his/her aspirations..

We have a two teir health care system in Canada
One you pay cash for and the other ohip. It's called Medcan. Canada's answer to private health care. :) It would be along the same lines. Ones who can afford it and ones who cannot. Simple. Nothing against the ones who don't want to buy it. The only true difference would be the amount being charged. Not the strength or goodness of the strain. :) Advertising .

lol there are always people who are sick who have money. Do you actually think only poor people get sick? It is not about screwing sick poor people. It is about capitalizing off of the rich who want the best. So you offer the best and try your best to give them just that. Hence why you can charge for such a service. It's not about taking over so people who don't have cash can't get better. Even .01% of billions if worth looking into.

Ok, so what would make your product better than the big dogs?

Anything small scale is grown better than large scale. No pesticides. Non radiated. 100% organically grown. I think there is already one LP like this. Guaranteed there is or will be one if not more that cater to Rich Clientele only and charge a premium penny to do so. Sadly it is not about sick people anymore but rather how much they can make off of anyone. :clap:

the big dog's are already cutting corners, and will continue to once they are rolling, think of the way any big companies focus is crunching numbers. ultimately.

based on this principal then ,someone like me should go around and buy up any businesses that are accessory to growing,and once I have
a captive market....just turn up the screws big time.....since you will all be able to afford to pay or pass on the cost ,so what the hey.....
I'm sorry mr/mrs LP but the cost of those bulbs are no longer 65 dollars but rather 1650.00,and it don't matter where you shop around too,either....
I wonder what the bunch would be calling me then.....and I bet it won't be just ....enterprising
hmmm maybe carbon taxes on growing with CO2.....sunlight tax for green houses...there are plenty more
