Wish I had a knack for growing…never got into it, seems like too much of a headache. Everyone I know who grows is always disappointed at the quality after it’s trimmed and dried.CabriniGreen wrote: ↑Wed Dec 13, 2023 7:34 amQuality reigns.

I think Illinois is the only State that understands the BUSINESS of weed. They understand to make money you damn near need an OPEC type situation. The Cali dudes, Oregon too, they are weed nerds more than businessmen. They keep overgrowing weed, competing with each other, lowering the price per gram. Working 10 times as hard for less than half the money they should be getting.AntComello wrote: ↑Wed Dec 13, 2023 7:53 amYesssir haha it’s pretty crazy too how much prices have dropped in that last few years. I used to get P’s for 22-2800 now they got for 12-1800 pretty wild. I think since weed has been legalized most places there is an abundance of bud out there.CabriniGreen wrote: ↑Wed Dec 13, 2023 7:34 amQuality reigns.

Biggest problem with that was you needed to be a non binary grass fed crippled black lesbian with previous felonies to get a damn license.

There are zero OTB's in the five boroughs. If you want one bad enough you can find one on Long Island but at that point you might as well just go to the track.

Gotchya. in Buffalo and Rochester they have shifted models and now have OTB machines and race simulcast TVs inside sports bars. But a bunch OTBS have shut down.

Re: New York State Police drug investigation leads to numerous arrests and seizure of weapons and drugs
Nice - didn't know there were still any standalone / storefront OTBs left in the entire state. Kinda crazy that Long Island has one. Like newyorkempire said, upstate you'll find kiosks in bars, usually along with some racing forms and a few TVs showing the races. Those are cool, but I'd rather just go to the track or do it from my phone at home. When it was nice out I would walk home from my office on 59th and stop at the OTB on 2nd Ave / 70th street. I always thought that one closed due to the OTB bankruptcy, but apparently it was because of the subway construction
The rollout of legal MJ got held up for a variety of reasons. One was how they were trying to figure out the priority order of who gets licenses, in order to be 'equitable' - but I know the biggest reason was that some big player in Michigan wanted to get a NY license and was suing the state for not allowing out of state residents. That had to get escalated to the state supreme court, but that was a while ago - not sure if it's there or even resolved by now
