Southern Governors are being bought off by big pharma. Some of the elected officials are pharmacist. Furthermore elected officials are the only ones who can change laws. Example: In a recent poll 81% of registered voters in Tennessee supported medical cannabis yet that state has the most restricted MM laws in the country. It's impossible to get a MM card in Tn. In the meantime the opioid crisis rages on. Denying people this medicine is a violation of human rights IMO -while the Tennessee Bureau of Investigations is dead against cannabis- they fear they will face cuts in funding.

Same way in some nearby states. I recall that the city of Nashville tried to decriminalize weed and the state shut that down. Jeez it seems so dang hopeless.

Fibs?

I just looked at some prices online last night at a local dispensary that will have recreational available on the 1st.

$55-95 a gram for flower

$65-95 for 1/2 gram vape cartridges

Concentrate seems to be the only thing i may be interested in until prices come down. Thats around 45-90 for a gram.

But my favorite news so far is that there's going to be a dispensary only about 3 miles up the road from my house. I can't believe it, just a 1/2 past the gas station I used to buy cigs at on a daily when i still smoked cigs. It won't be open till February or March, but still. Going to be awesome once prices arent retarded.

And actually wait a minute, it's worse. Those are the medical prices, add 30% tax to that for recreational price

So that will be 71.50 for that gram of bud

As of right now you need a medical card so those are the only prices you're going to see on a website in Illinois. I don't think medical pays 30% tax, only recreational. I was getting them off the HCI Alternatives website which is the closest dispensary to me that is currently open and has prices online. But upon looking today that website has just changed since yesterday, guess they got bought out

the prices havent changed much. They do have some cheaper bud and some spendier bud....but 55 for 1/2 gram vape cartridges is high af imo...i get legit 1 grams for 40 off the street.

Looks like 20 dollar grams and 60 dollar 1/8ths, and again, tack on 30% to those prices for the rec price

So thats gonna be like 160 for a 1/4 for rec weed

I can get top shelf dank bud for 200 a zip in Southern Illinois right now.... but fortunately for myself I know how to grow dank bud lol.

But that's just how I'm going to do it, I deal with a lot of PTSD and pain, so I go through more Indica as I need it more in the evenings and for sleep.

But it will be nice to be able to get my hands on some hybrid and sativa stuff because I don't grow any of that. But it's because I use less sativa/hybrid so it will work out well for me.

I pretty much like to start my day with a sativa, around lunchtime switch to some hybrid, and then by the time I'm off work it's Indica time
