Probably is- but if the RFID tag says a box weighs 50 pounds, and it comes in weighing 45 pounds, then you can throw up flags. Of course, there's always going to be ways around this sort of stuff, but you just have to raise the cost of getting around them just enough for it to be unprofitable.
Also, I've heard that cartel-grade MJ is terrible quality- local cultivation is probably pretty different then whatever shit they can grow.

- oxide 10y agoin my neck of the woods in CA, dispensaries aren't going to buy cartel brick weed. you can't just walk in off the street and sell to a dispensary anyway, I don't think that will change with a move to recreational legalization. cartels can't compete with local street prices anyway, never mind recreational dispensaries. when you can get an 1/8th ounce of high quality stuff for 25 dollars off-season, and an a full ounce for 100 or less during harvest season, you can barely give the low quality stuff away. it usually gets used for hash or edible baking. cartels know where they can and can't compete, that low quality brick weed is much better off being shipped to another state where they can sell it for 100 dollars an ounce.
- zhengyi13 10y agoBased on some of the complaints (anecdotally) I've heard about public land use, I think it's a mistake to assume cartel weed is brick/low-quality weed. They're clearly engaged in growing locally, if only because you eliminate the risk of border inspections and longer transport lines.

- barefootcoder 10y agoCan you explain to those of us who have never used nor purchased why it would be more expensive during the harvest season than the off season? Or did you get the numbers backwards? EDIT: thanks to those who replied -- I didn't notice the change in units.
- qq66 10y agoThe comparison was between 1/8 of an ounce for $25 ($200 per ounce) and $100 per ounce during the harvest season.
- barefootcoder 10y agoThank you -- I need to check my reading comprehension. I didn't notice the change in units. :-)
- traek 10y agoIt's less expensive in harvest season. "a full ounce for 100 or less" -> 12.5 for an eight
