Cap the potency of pot (link)

Blah, blah, blah, Just more noise from useless, uninformed politicians. They want to "legalize" it, then dump unreasonable, unworkable, and unenforceable regulations on it. Just make it legal and keep your rotten corrupt mitts out of it completely.

Idk where they got their stash back in the day, but I have to question the less than 2% potency they quoted.
 
The best weed I have ever smoked was colas from Oaxaca in the mid seventies, the stuff was super with great taste. I have also smoked excellent weed from S.Korea in 1971 and I would be remiss to not mention Colombian and Jamaican that were exceptional. I don't think the best today is better than those. You know it's a bit like baseball, now they measure bat speed, spin rate, exit speed and stuff but has there ever been a better hitter than Ted Williams, 3rd baseman better than Brooks Robinson, or pitcher like Tom Seaver?

Oaxaca weed was good. I miss the vey distinguishable Columbo buzz. Jamaican was better than Hawaiian, IMO. I'd like to try Jamaican again, after smoking high % dispo bud now. If anyone has access to those seeds it should be decent grown under good lights.
 
I will never forget that Oaxaca, it was the first colas I ever had, and while not tied to sticks they were very loosely wrapped in shiny, colored wrapping paper, not compacted in any way, I don't remember how it got here on the right coast but I saw much more Colombian than Jamaican here and never Hawaiian.
On the topic a local dispensary clerk told me that Florida, in their infinite progressive wisdom has a legal limit of 22%, she said that means everything all products,
 
Illinois wanted to DNA trace all legal weed at one time. They gave up because they can barely get anything done as it is.
 
Do other states be it legal recreational or medical have limits? The states are in it for the money, if the higher % cost more the state would realize more tax revenue. The prices are aligned that way here, that is the best here is at $60 an 1/8th.
I don't know what they are but I am sure my state has onerous demands placed on the industry for accountability. I wouldn't mind a more liquor store like set up here and forget the medical nonsense and now that I have had the experience I much prefer knowing what the THC is as opposed to learning how good it was before I smoked it.
 
3Berries I have saved a bit of my best sleeping-pill street weed and my best street pain weed. If I could ever learn it's genetics I'd go on a hunt.
 
Satyaban The Jamaican was a one-time, two couples went on vacation, the two girls each brought in a bag. The good, real Hawaiian was shared from my downstairs apt neighbor in the late 70's. Columbian that I got came from the south, through like TN or Southern IL, not down from Chicago, and it was nice. .Whatever I got that came from the suburbs was good. My first sinsemilla was one long trimmed cola in a Ziploc, some small spaced out little red & green buds and bigger ones on the end. It was true one-hit weed. I later learned it was grown outdoors in Chicago ~1979. I heard something about FL limiting %. Go figure. The black market will be selling better weed than the dispos.
 
I don't know about rec but my medical card lets me buy the equivalent to 2.5 ounces every two weeks. As if. Med tax here is 1%, rec tax is over 15% plus some jurisdictions or municipalities get their hands on more tax for rec also. Brutal but that line is always busy whenever I make a run. They usually only service one med pt. at a time, there are sometimes 4-5 ppl servicing rec customers. They had 5 workers call in sick today. It's a much smaller 'city', nothing is closer or in my county. I just get irate that popular, beloved, great strains are rarely on the menu, after spending years finding what works best.
 
Puglover, are you saying your state differentiates between med and rec dispensations? Here we pay annual fees for recertification and another fee every three years for a new card. I don't want to mention numbers but they are high for some of us who live from paycheck to paycheck, or retirement check in my case. Hell, I get a veteran's discount at the disp. and there is no sales tax, I never noticed any, but the growers and the industry pay fees for permits. It all boils down to the 35% 8ths cost me around $48.
