I love that these small businesses are keeping more of their hard-earned money, but I don’t really think this will have any noticeable effect on their sales. As someone who exclusively purchases cannabis flower, I will only use the dispensaries when my trusted guy is out, and for only the smallest possible quantity until my guy is back up. A majority of dispensary customers are looking for cannabis-infused beverages, concentrates, and a selection of professionally-packaged products that a street dealer is simply incapable of manufacturing.

Could you elaborate further on why you’d stick to your guy?

  First and foremost, we have become good friends over the years, so I enjoy the ceremony of entering his home to sit down and hang out before making a purchase. The quality has been consistently excellent over the years, even before legalization. I also sometimes get headaches from dispensary flower that I never get from this flower, which my guy attributes to the "organic" (i.e. no pesticide) grow that his source uses. I will say that I discovered cannabis-infused beverages only a few months ago, and they are the most compelling alternative to flower for both me and everyone I've talked to.

    Could be the ingredients but headaches from weed are most often caused by chlorophyll which didn't break down yet. In case you get it, it might help to leave the weed in a jar for two weeks, it may still be too fresh. After that it should be broken down. Not a smoker anymore, but I wish there would be "weed light". Weed today is so massively overbred that it contains massive amounts of THC or CBD or both. It would be nice to have some form of jazz cigarette that induces a subtle high instead of making you not want to move ever again and gets you close to a psychotic breakdown. The stuff of today isn't comparable to what the hippies smoked in the 60s and I would say it can be quite dangerous. Also a lot of users get addicted to tobacco instead of the high of weed but will always smoke weed when they have the urge to smoke.

Hear Hear. I didn't partake of anything cannabis related until it became legal in my state. I felt like I had too much to lose getting caught and losing my livelihood. Like you said, Beverages and edibles are what I consume as I've never been a fan of smoking due to health concerns. I didn't even know prices were high. lol
