PlantHumboldt Cannabis Nursery on Nostr: Sticker seen on the sales counter at a local grow shop in southern Humboldt. ...
Sticker seen on the sales counter at a local grow shop in southern Humboldt. Translation: do not sell pounds of cannabis for under $500 or the cannabis cultivators of the tri-county region of northwestern California will not be able to survive financially.
Back in the early 20-teens there were similar stickers that said "25 to survive", meaning $2500 per pound. That was something of a ridiculous joke at that time, because prices had already dropped well below $2000/lb on the "traditional" (illegal) market. This was before legalization, but during the time of virtually unregulated medical use.
We have done modestly well this year at the nursery because prices have come up to the point where many of the small farmers who couldn't afford our plants the past two years have come in and bought large quantities.
The extreme bureaucratization of legal cannabis has driven production costs sky high, so $500/lb truly is a rock bottom minimum.
