Colorado's cannabis market is in free-fall, going from peak revenues of $2.2 billion in 2020, to $1.5 billion just three years later.
The drop has had a substantial impact on the state's economy - 
with cannabis tax revenues decreasing more than 30% over the past two years ...to just $282 million last fiscal year, Politico reports.

The states to its east, west and south have either gone recreational or medical.

One time, I went to this hot chick's place, expecting to get laid, and she gave me pot brownies. OMG! I was so lost in space I could not find my way home until hours later!
Never again!

and sales of grow lights have skyrocketed  :LOL:  

here in Ohio 

you can buy clones pretty cheap, and grow your own 

I always wondered how they thought that they were going to corner the market 

they are going to lower their prices in the dispensaries 

but I gotta admit 

it is nice to go to the dispensary and see all the varieties 

kind of expensive 

but damn it’s good

Exactly.

It's a plant, that's not real hard to grow... even indoors.

That's why tomatoes are so cheap at the grocery store too.

Ive only been to one dispensary.  It was in New Mexico.

I gotta admit the smell is unbelievable.  The buds are perfect.

Not like in the 70s/80s when we would pay $30 for a full ounce
of trash weed full of seeds :LOL:

For some people, marijuana is medicine. For others, poison. 

Like the left, the right needs to learn to mind its own **** business.

You don't have enough **** in your life to judge, that you gotta cast judgment on STRANGERS' personal medical decisions, ya fruit?

Herbs are medicine, fruitcake. For some people, weed makes perfect sense. For others of us, it makes more sense to leave it alone. I allow other people the grace of making such decisions for themselves.

He is the kind of putz who would prefer hell to oblivion, because he has to make his precious judgments of every **** little thing. 

Some OTHER person smoking weed is somehow his personal business - talk about a **** leftist control freak...
