For the same reason purple buds sell for more. It's purely aesthetics.

Because hydro looks prettier and smells stronger. There is a big difference between good bud and bud that sells well in clubs. Even though buds grown in dirt taste better, that's not what customers see when they go to the counter.

Also because this year was such a successful outdoor harvest all over California clubs are stocked up on that shit. They pay more for what they don't have. That's hydro.

Quality outdoor was selling for just as much as hydro at the very beginning of the outdoor harvest season, but now not so much. The market is still flooded with buds grown in dirt still.

well from my personal experience growing and selling to the clubs in sac-a-endo and san fran it totally depends on owner of dispensary and strain you have. Of course they pay you for your weed....it is "donated" to the club for a price...cummon nuthin in life is free. I sold a LB of some white widow for $2800 to a club in sac and i sold an LB for $4000 of Dj Short Blue moonshine to a club in san fran. I had some Larry OG back in the day that went for $4200 but that was a kush which is what everyone wants in cali at the clubs...so they pay for it.

Very interesting. I alwas get 4 a lb for indoor veganic/organic grown in organic mediums. Never more...Never less. I try to rotate alot of different strains and keep the variety freash and updated. Sometimes the strains are low yeilders and others are great. It seems to balance itself out over the long haul. Keeps food on the table---and meds to the pats. I give some away to those that can't afford meds and are in need as well. :eyesmoke:

If you're still getting 4 right now, you must be doing something right. I haven't gotten 4 since last summer. Most clubs won't pay that for anything in the bay area. Sounds like you've got a good gig going. Congrats.

I do organic/dirt for my personal stash but pretty much all hydro/aero for the clubs but I do an outdoor crop too. I'm on a perpetual harvest SOG and rotate strains pretty frequently. I like to throw a couple plants of new strains in the corner of my tray to see how they do in my system. It they turn out better than the rest of the tray then it replaces the old strain.

I do the give away thing a little bit too for people who can't afford them + I hook up the employees at the clubs I work with. I like to have the people working at the club familiar with my stuff. I find they sell faster that way and club owners/buyers stay happy with me.

Clubs are moving product so whats the problem. Are you only going to one dispensary??? If so you need to get out like a travailing salesman and move your stuff. Sounds like a road-trip in your future. 1. Pack up your gear 2. make a list of 20 dispensaries. 3. Pack up your vacuums(just kidding) 4. and don't go home till its all gone. You may not get top dollar but you will move the lot unless its horrible. Ask each dispensary what is their bread and butter strains and see if you can set a date for you next visit. Its not perfect but with a little bit of motivation you will get it moved.

I am north of Portland OR I would be willing to take a drive south if I knew where there was a market for good quality. I like to grow but I have no knowlage on the other half of the industry. Could you PM me with locations south of Portland even CA.

This turned out to be a prety good thread. Thanks
