Missouri is now legal. Why drive way out to Denver. Maybe you could open a dispensary in a border town like Burlington.
It’s a quality problem. Quality has gone down across the board in general making it less desirable to smoke as much. I use to go to 6 dispensarys that had high quality bud. Now i only go to one place that has continued with good quality
SMOKE WEED EVERYDAY 🌬🌬🌬😎😎😎👍👍👍
This is how it works with oversaturation. Some survive and some won’t. Colorado has a long history with "boom to bust".
Part of the problem I think is that it became legal and there was a boom of sales among those excited about it being legal and people like me who hadn’t tried it before because it hadn’t been. I can only speak for myself when I say I tried it and realized it’s mostly not for me. I just get super tired and want to go to bed. So I suppose it could be useful as a sleep aid but I rarely have trouble sleeping so I don’t see myself using it very often. A lot of the people who used to buy it from dealers seem to either still do that or grow it themselves and a lot of folks like me decided it’s not their thing.
why am i gonna pay 50 bucks for 17% thc of a 3.5 whille a plug is selling 22% thc for 25 a 3.5 like?????
more regulations less taxes
Because the weed isn’t that good. Super dry
Quality just isn’t there anymore and it’s a pain to go to a dispensary anymore. We have the right to grow our own and that is the way to go.
Must of weed is trash that’s why
i still purchase from my weed man …… fk all the shops
1. Most dispensaries are a PAIN in the ASS experience to visit. Long lines, tons of fees and taxes. It’s a total hassle when I’m waiting 40min in line only to pay $10 more than the listed price on all items.
2. Again…Taxes, Fees!!!
3. Too saturated!!! There’s a million dispensaries. Some bigger than others, some more expensive than others, some better service than others, it’s a hit and miss and most times the experience usually ends up in frustration anyways.
1000% cheaper and easier to just grow your own and bypass the dispensaries all together.
The dab Denver has a lot of bad flower that’s why he’s struggling .. sappy flower is awful .. it’s priced low but who cares .. locals know where to shop .. but again Colorado was one of only states with legal weed .. now legal weeds everywhere .. no ones traveling to Colorado
Bc the pot sucks at most the shops
My guess is some people are going back to buying it on the street because dispo prices are just too taxed
low sales cuz Denver is expensive as fuck. LA got cheaper prices on same brands. a good 10-20$ cheaper
Good…. when they tax the ever loving ever living shit out of it…
this happens….. geeezz wake up
GROW AT HOME
If I’d lived in Denver , I’d just grow my own. I’d take pride in smoking my own .
Stop voting Democrat. Once Dem lawmakers STOPPED enforcing the laws this is what you get.
Looks like the state government isn’t receiving the expected revenue from the sales of cannabis.
We grow now
The main reason, none of yall got that Tegridy
What’s perfectly legal to posses and consume in about half of the United States (and rapidly growing…), should not still make you a common criminal in states still being ran by woefully ignorant prohibitionist politicians.Legalize cannabis federally within each and every state. This way, irrational prohibitionist politicians can’t obstruct and prevent legalization against the will of the vast majority of Americans whom support full federal cannabis legalization nationwide. Treat cannabis exactly like we treat far more dangerous and deadly yet perfectly legal alcohol. Legal in all states.
Now that you got legal recreational in a lot of states that are nearby like Missouri, Illinois, Michigan a lot of people are not crossing the border to get it..A lot of those sales in previous years was out of staters
But people buy from each state if they want like tobacco
Colorado doesn’t grow better than California and people can order and get better quality all I get from Colorado is extracts and garlic profiles 😂
thank god more for me
The problem is quality on the drying side… nobody wants old, dry… weed. The ones on the shelf are at least 3 months old from harvest and the price is the same. Should be a choice to buy fresh or cured. It’s like a Tomato, you could buy a fresh tomato or a dried tomato.
with high prices, and insane taxes, what do you expect?
especially when literally any one can grow it on their own, for next to nothing, if not entirely free.
Wouldnt surprise me if you had a business selling water to fish as well.
Drugs are bad.
Grow your own ppl ya seeds are expensive but they pay for themselves when your saving thousands
😂😂😂😂
GROW YOUR OWN!!!
Weed sucks legalize cocaine now that’ll be a billion dollar industry
Bidenomics at work
I smoke 2 joints in the morning……I smoke 2 joints 2 night.
