I find people who say good weed is all the same have never tried truly amazing cannabis. If it's grown well, organically in soil outdoors and cured in the exact right way where even the temperature is controlled by burying the jars in the ground outside for very very long periods of time (a year for example) and the strain is really good, for example a classic strain such as Jack Herer or Blueberry, it really is mindblowing. It takes real skill to go through all these process carefully and meticulously and to be honest, I've not even gotten to grips with all the plethora of growing techniqes possible yet.

I do know that cannabis can be more than a shitty drug like Marinol which only contains delta -9- THC. Weed from a good strain contains cannabinoids that work in true harmony with each other and massage your soul into ecstacy.
 
Even strains from the same bag or vial from a seedbank can vary quite a bit in potentcy and stuff,depends on the growers skill.Just got some good Pineaplle sative for the first time and wonder how that will be..Usually smoke White widow or AK-47 or Northern lights,becasue I get them from grower family and freinds for free or very cheap...Got an Ounce today of some strain called Evergreen grown in Oregon I think that is supposed to be really good..
 
I would hate to buy from a dispensary, since you really don't know how the cannabis has really been grown. It's not regulated like an organic farm in the UK (not the US, since in the US they can chuck a whole load of chemicals in and call it an organic fertilizer - it's disgraceful).

At least with my own cannabis, I know it's been loved and cared for and will taste lovely and be healthy. I also have the satisfaction of smoking what I've growln with my own bare hands. I wouldn't get the thereapeutic advantage of growing if I started buying from a dispensary.

Also dispensaries are a rip off.

You have no idea what you're talking about.

We have two dispensaries in Denver that I DIRECTLY know take you into the back and will let you examine the buds under magnification, tell you about their growing methods, hell one of them even has every strain they carry tested and certified for various cannabinoid contents and carries nothing but organic, outdoor-grown cannabis.

My buddy that owns an LA area dispensary was talking about super lemon haze and said it was very damn good, I have smoked super silver haze ,but do not know the potencty of either but lemon haze sounds tastier...I heard of Strawberry super haze and that sounds even tastier flavor wise..lol

Don't worry MagickalKat, he is just jealous.

I wouldn't give up anything from what I have gained at dispensaries (I'm in Denver too).

I mean, as a grower, you get free LEGAL advice pretty much 24/7. AE depends on learning his grow techniques from forums and books, and not much "hands on" experience being face-to-face with professional growers (except maybe one or two ILLEGAL growers, who are usually more paranoid about getting caught than they care about growing).

The advantages a dispensary brings, far outweigh any disadvantages AE is dreaming up.

I used to think Cannabis Cup winners were really good strains but then I slowly realised that most of the best stains are not CC winners. I've also heard stories of corruption amongst CC judges fron numerous sources.

I think its just a different tone out here than Cali. A LOT of the dispensaries out here (like DR, for example), actually care about their products, their customers, etc. I mean hell, both managers at DR are notaries and will notarize your application for free, even if you don't make them your care-giver!

I've heard Cali dispensaries are more like the Comfort Dental mentality "get them in, do a half-ass job, get the money, get them out the door"

It's very diverse here that's for sure. From Nederland through Denver up to Boulder, there are so many different kinds of dispensaries to meet whatever needs you have it's almost ridiculous. I believe in Denver alone there are more dispensaries than there are Starbucks in all of Colorado.

It's not about the numbers though. Honestly, when I compare it to coffee shops in the Netherlands, I prefer dispensaries. Most coffee shops have that mentality that you describe to be in California. Rush rush, get them out the door. There are so many small "mom and pop" shops here, that you really can get so much more out of it. People will take the time out of there day to make sure you are getting what you want here.

Gotta love it huh? :)

Sorry but not all dispensaries are the same and I'm sure some dispensaries will tell you that all their bud is grown organically outdoors, but they're trying to sell you a product at the end of the day. I don't think you can be absolutely sure all the time anyway, even if they show you the cannabis close up. I've seen hydro cannabis that looks exactly like guerrilla grown weed before l And I wouldn't want to pay them for the privelage of smoking cannabis when I can grow it myself much cheaper.

To the person that said I'm jealous, whatever 8) I grow my own high quality organic weed which I can get as much of as I want. I'll probably never get caught and if I do, I won't even have to pay a fine in all likelihood (even if I do it'll be nothing). So I get dirt cheap weed for a fraction of the price you pay and get the experience of growing it. So I'm not sure what I have to be jealous of.

Ah there you are with your snide comments again! You're just pissed off since I showed up your crappy growing techniques!! Your post is dripping with irony! You have no idea which professional growers I've had the privilage of speaking to. So kindly go away.

Also, I'm all for legalisation and the presence of dispensaries. I think it's great, IF you are willing to pay the prices. However, I'm not. I'd rather have my own homegrown weed.

Also, cannabis forums ie uk420 in particular, not the Bluelight cannabis forum, where it seems YOU've got all your growing knowledge from, is full of professional growers (not that they advertise ). You're so ignorant it's not funny. I could go through that old thread and pick out all the bad advice about growing you gave if you want to highlight how much of a novice you are. Perhaps that would put you in your place? Perhaps you love your dispensaries so much because you're not actually able to grow good weed yourself?

As a matter of fact, it was earlier this morning that I spoke to a commercial grower this morning, who's visiting me this morning. Just because I live in a country where weed is illegal, it doesn't mean I don't have any of the freedoms you have and take for granted. You think growers over here don't hook up because it's illegal? Perhaps less, because they don't want to get caught, but that doesn't mean we're unable to learn how to grow good weed on a commercial scale.
