Washington State's Pig Farmers & Cash Hogs?

[oldemarine 233]

It looks like people are looking to cash in on Washington States new policy on cannabis production. It will be interesting to see how licenses are granted, and if the big corporations are allowed to do mega greenhouses in Eastern Washington with the good light levels. One effect has been prices are dropping compared to the past a good oz. of indoor Blueberry has dropped from $300 to $150-$200.

As long all are happy and price is dropping, well who can complain

Tokage, The small growers who have one or two lights are taking a 50% reduction in their income. If the big corporate greenhouses go up many think it will drive the little mom & pop growers out of business. The people who plan on going big have to deal with our Federal Laws that will lock one up for a long time for manufacturing and sales.

Dust. It will be interesting to see how the Washington and Colorado experiment with radical new Citizens uprising laws concerning Cannabis work out. President Obama has talked about Cannabis users are not going to be considered "big fish". It will be interesting to see if grows over 100 plants will still be looking at 5 years plus in prison.
