Not liking this, could end up like tobacco, with additives and shit that slowly kill you.

There will inevitably be some hippy commune growing and selling organic weed so I wouldn't worry too much about that.

[QUOTE=HumanAbyss;40849390]wait

are you saying weed isn't already over priced and over branded?

Because it is[/QUOTE]
I don't about you, but here in Cali, we buy by the gram. 10$ for a gram is a pretty good deal, hell i even bought an 1/8 for 30$.

God damnit I wanted to be the first person to do this.

It all depends on where you live, here in Maine an 1/8th will generally cost you between 40-50$ if you want good quality.

Would take some homegrown bud over Mexican brick schwag any day.

[QUOTE=Sobotnik;40854433]Yes, but what is there to say that home growers can do the job better than a large national company?

Specialized people work to grow all sorts of crops, and Marijuana won't be an exception.[/QUOTE]

Might just be me, but I've had homebrewed beer before and it was leagues ahead of Budweiser or Dos Equis. I've also had trash mexican skunkweed and homegrown dro, and there's absolutely a difference. Making good weed isn't the same as brewing good beer, because it really does take a lot of time and effort. You can't spray them with loads of pesticides, they require very specific lighting schedules, pruning, etc. It can't be automated easily.

Right, but you can just hire a lot of people to work for you instead.

Division of labour and economies of scale.
