There's a lot of excess marijuana in New York State that currently has nowhere to go. 200 growers, and only 23 dispensaries so far to sell it to.

I don't know why some states have such a difficult time setting up their legal marijuana market (or allowing vendors to do part of the setting up), and other states do it so easily. In Maryland's first 6 months of legal recreational marijuana sales things are going just fine. NY seems to be stumbling.

Too many rules and beauricratic nonsense in NY. I finally went to the dispensary where I live in Staten Island. Took 2 years to open.

Yeah, I'm surprised to see NY stumbling over NY while legalizing it, yet MD which is famous for bureaucratic logjams got it up and running easily and sensibly. MD predicted $1 billion in sales in the first year, and they hit $800 million in the first 6 months. There are currently 96 dispensaries authorized for recreational use, with another 100 being allowed this summer and another 100 the following summer. The 2 I've been to are very well run; I'm actually impressed.

One of my local dispensaries calls that 20% off a "Wisdom Discount". Seriously.
Old me thinks they are very smart.

Slow progress is better than no progress I guess. The FDA is recommending changing marijuana from a Class 1 drug to a Class 3 drug, which it always should have been.

FDA says marijuana has a legitimate medicinal purpose

I've been smoking more flower than vapes lately, and I discovered something that makes life better when smoking out of a glass bowl - Smojo "permanent" screens. Pretty nifty idea.

Also, Glass screens are a thing, which I never knew. I've been using brass screens forever and they're always a PITA. Gonna try both types and see which I like better.

I've only been using the metal screen for a couple of days and it has yet to clog or get gummed up...well see how long it takes and how easy they are to clean.

Just a heads up for those that like myself are apparently living under a rock and aren't up to date with the latest screen tech.

Funny how after 30 years of smoking I've come full circle back to using a wooden pipe and handrolled doobs. Tried it all, from vapes to giant bongs, from shatter to wax to live resin and now, firmly back in analog flower.

Similar story here. I bought a dugout a few months ago (Dugout Dynasty) and use it all the time now. It brought back some old memories. I was at an old friend's house in Madison WI a couple weeks ago. He's in his 60's and retired. We went down to his basement for a smoke and he pulled out a 2 foot Gaphics. I definitely hadn't seen one of those since college - probably his and probably the same one ...

I've seen those ceramic jack things before and they look like I'd lose them every time. Regular old screens work for me and they're like 3 cents each.

LOL - we used call those Pinch Hitters back in the 70s!!

love the baseball bat shape

ETA: though I have taken in more than my share of burning debris with those things - especially dangerous when you get down to the end of the baggie and have a lot of dust.

Might as well sell it to the kids in the neighborhood at 10% off for a little extra cash in retirement.

Same. I like my glass pipe once in awhile, but mostly roll joints. Well, roll is not the right word (I was never good at it) - I use the paper cones, which makes it really easy. I have a little a little metal tube I bought on Amazon to hold them - take a hit or two, put it in the tube, it goes right out ready for the next hit.

A few months ago, I got turned on to these infused joints called "Kaviar". They are 1.5g and THC is always over 30%. https://nativerootscannabis.com/shop/product/med-kaviar-joint-sativa/

Since trying the metal one that kinda snaps into the bowl hole, I didnt bother checking out the glass ones because the metal ones are awesome. I've been smoking thru one for about 10 days and haven't had to clean it, it doesnt get clogged and it can't fall out.

This is what it looks like after 10 days of daily smoking vs a new one. It'll be interesting to see how long it lasts before I have to replace it, but I can't see going back to the old school screens.

Gotta take my kid to theater at 5. He’s got a ride home so all bets are off after that

Probably throw a Costco chicken pot pie in the oven and watch more Fallout

Good God, ounces of 29% THC flower are going for $30 today in Oregon. Thirty.

Interesting show, I've seen the first couple of episodes. Great visuals and soundtrack, the storylines are a bit muddled to me maybe because I've never played the video games. But definitely a good choice for 420.

Caught a couple trout this morning, have a chicken in the smoker, been picking losing horses all afternoon.
I’m due!

Text my kid let’s go and he tells me he found a ride. Can’t wait until he tells me he doesn’t have a ride home

Can’t wait for derby in a few weeks

I never like rolling joints the traditional way either and learned to roll cones when I studied abroad in college. Been doing it ever since but always got funny looks when making the cones and needed some sort of device to stuff the product. Seems to be more mainstream now. Love those RAW containers of cones (and similar products) for their convenience and all the different sizes offered but I normally just do it manually. If you want a cone like Backwood blunt, Slapwoods do that.

Yep, those sell well, back East anyway.

We wanna do the mini-infused prerolls, five .5g in a case. Stiizy does them. I think it's an easy sell.
Those 1 gram infused prerolls, I'm tapping out quick. Need like 7 people in on those monsters

I got some top shelf at 30% off on Saturday. I don't know how the zoning laws work and I'm not sure how all of these dispensaries stay in business. There were four or five dispensaries that I could drive to in less than five minutes from my house. As of last week there is now one ON MY BLOCK!

WASHINGTON (AP) — The U.S. Drug Enforcement Administration will move to reclassify marijuana as a less dangerous drug, The Associated Press has learned, a historic shift to generations of American drug policy that could have wide ripple effects across the country.

The DEA’s proposal, which still must be reviewed by the White House Office of Management and Budget, would recognize the medical uses of cannabis and acknowledge it has less potential for abuse than some of the nation’s most dangerous drugs. However, it would not legalize marijuana outright for recreational use.

Not a fan of this at all. Here comes big pharma. Just de-schedule it….is alcohol schedule 3?

As long as 280E goes away, I don't care about national.

Big pharma may come calling, but I think not till full federal legalization.

By the way @urbanhack , we will have the manufacturing up and running in 8 weeks or so. Halfway thru build out. Rolling out an all-in-one live resin 1g cart, then infused prerolls, then maybe a topical and a drink.

I am dying to do packs of mini-pre rolls, anyone I know who has access to them buys them again. Just so convenient. Fine for one person, perfect for two. Those 1 g infused prerolls, boy you need like 6 people on those things. Stizzy does a line of kief-covered minis, and they are infused with some fruity nonsense, and they are still awesome, even considering I bought them at an illegal shop in NYC, and they must be older than carbon

These are my favorites. Don't like smoking a big huge joint so these are perfect, especially if kief rolled.

The issue with the kief rolled is they cost more to make.

And that's why the big corporations won't do them, and why a little smart company will.

Bear in mind, the infused preroll thing is early days. I have NO doubt the stoner engineering boys will improve the methods of infused prerolls. Other methods are these syringe (hand or automated) deal, but that's a blob of distillate dropped in a joint. They eff up a LOT.

We'd like to get simply THC crystal, and sprinkle inside.

Just doesn't look as COOL as the kief coated, lol
