Yep that's old news lol.

I'm sure they are still paying for many buildings that have been untouched since legalization.

Should have been sold at the liquor store, or at the agent if in the boonies. Don't want pot sold in your town then you lose your liquor store.

It would be difficult to sell at the lcbo , everything is locked up behind the counter. That would mean every store would have to be remodeled to fit in the product to sell. Im sure it could be like some beer stores where you order then it comes out from the back. But again they would need the space to add to walls to secure and store the cannabis. It's just not simply on the shelves and take to the counter.

Keeping it's own store is probably a good idea. The way Ontario did the first bunch of stores was just wrong. Only the wealthy had the opportunity to try and open a store.

Overpriced products get purchased from alternative sources.

Ever been to a pot store? They have it locked up in the back, just like in the old days of the LCBO when you put an X beside the bottle you wanted on a piece of paper, and they went to the back room to get it. There are no self serve pot shops. Take out one section of crap wine in the LCBO and you would have room. Ford thinks private business can do everything better- cheaper, which has been proven over and over again ,to be wrong. You could have entered the lottery for a pot store licence for 45 bucks, then sell the winning ticket for millions as someone did.

It did help lower the prices on the street. My 'guy', used to charge 55 a quarter now down to 45. Competition for your money is a wonderful thing.

I agree, on the reserve ,there is 10 dollar a gram for reasonable black hash every day , goes up to 26 bucks a gram for the fancier chunks .My 'guy' can't beat Tyendinaga on anything. It is a bit of a drive for me though, so unless quantities are involved.....

Not in the first 2 lotterys it was not cheap for some.

You needed to have access to 300 thousand 250 plus the additional 50 on credit to be successful for a license.
Plus have a secure store front. .
Not everyone has ties to this amount of money.

I could of secured a store front and renovations but definitely not all if what they wanted so the little guys are out.

A good deal at 10 bucks a gram for hash. I make my own for a 3 dollar bag of ice and 3 dollars for coffee filters lol. Oh and 20 dollar mixer [emoji39] getto bubble [emoji1787]

Remember there a posession limit

So here are a few pics of the outdoor cannabis tree's. I say tree's because 2 of the 4 became just that.

One was 7x7 and the other was 8 ft high and 8 ft wide and about 20 tops.

This new legalization will only make them better in the future . The first legal season was a banner. Only do outdoor so looking forward to the next gardening season not sure what strains are up next haven't looked into it yet.
A waste of money if your going to be buying from government. Learn to grow your own

You should try 75 day autos. You can almost get 3 grows of 4 plants in a season.

Who didn’t see this coming?

Huge brainfart from Ford trying to please people that want booze in corner stores. It’s a main reason why the credit rating was down graded. Cutting revenue.

I was working for the LCBO at the time so was privy to some information. The LCBO had already spent a lot of money on outlets. Flushed.

Had already hired people to run it, and was interviewing store managers. More money flushed.

Supply logistics. Flushed...

I personally think there’s a time when we could open up the market for corner stores. That time isn’t now. Not when we have serious problems, are in debt up to our eyeballs, and need more revenue. Either to kill the deficit, or pay down some debt, or use money to fix some of the serious problems.

Buck a beer I guess is more important

Even the "buck a beer" isn't working. Have you tried any of it? It's panther piss,pure and simple.

Have many years experience with the auto flower. Lots of inconsistencies with the stains and traits of them . You can pop 2 seeds and have 2 totally different phenotypes .

This new law of 4 plants has slowed things down but I have my own strains of auto flower . As of this year I have completed the cycle and have a true auto flower seeds complete with Male's [emoji106][emoji39].. It's going to take a few more seasons to get it right to where I want them after that I can cross and make many different strains I want.

This is the only one I did this season pics are from July 9th , 11th and 30th.
I gave away my own seeds to a friend they are just small one bud plants right now fast but small. 3 of the 4 female with a male auto, you can not buy those anywhere lol. [emoji39][emoji54]

Out door you can only harvest a fraction of what indoor can do. Outdoors the second run is always smaller as the time of day gets shorter and cooler days .
Indoor 4 runs are possible per year.
Some of them you can have a qp dried in as little as 90 days per plant.

A caged off 20’ section of wall shelf wouldn’t hurt most stores. Another option is the Consumers Distributing model where only a small display with a catalogue is out and everything is in the back. That’s pretty much how the private stores work anyway.

Stock on display is a waste anyway since it’s all bland looking bottles anyway. Nothing to see.

The model I wanted to see was online purchase with in store pickup.

But hey, leave it to government to lose money being drug dealers! Lol

That's just that most stores lol.

The one in Beaverton and pefferlaw are only small 3 isle stores with a cold room .
Most of them in small communities are already small.

But then you to sutton, keswick and newmarket they massive and would have room. But a 20 ft wall in the 2 closest stores around me would be almost half the store lol.

A cataluge would be a great idea.
