Many provisions of Proposition 64 legalizing recreational marijuana won’t go into effect until 2018, but one aspect of it takes effect immediately.

There’s no more tax on medical marijuana.

California voters approved the ballot measure earlier this month, opening the door for the sale of recreational marijuana in the state, but not until 2018.

The proposition is meant to shift the tax burden of marijuana sales away from medical users and onto recreational ones. But taxes on medical marijuana have ceased with 14 months to go before a single legal recreational sale occurs.

Before the election, medical marijuana was subject to state tax. Now it is not. Local taxes remain, however.

Prop. 64 wrinkle: Taxes stop on medical marijuana long before recreational sales start

That’s for the state tax. Local taxes still apply. It’s unfortunate.

Thought I'd share a shot of one of my girls. It's from a cheap Original Skunk #1 seed, but I may have a keeper pheno. I popped another seed from the same package of fem seeds and it's a pretty & healthy plant, but this one is showing way bigger, frostier flowers and it's only 34 days since the flip.

It doesn't want to embed, so here's the link. Make sure you zoom to full resolution. I love how the edges of some of the fans are already curling up with frosty goodness.

Well this is some bullshit. I got a few grams at the dispensary and paid 30% sales tax as a medical patient. My Veteran discount doesnt even put a dent into that.

If I were to get the state class M license (i need a medical aproval to get one) I could save almost 10% tax but still have all local and city tax to pay on weed. California does not want medical marijuana patients to posess gun. Now days when we apply to purchase a firearm we are asked on the application if we are a medical marijuana patient. Checking that box YES will disqualify you from legally purchasing a gun. Marking NO is proof of perjury if you have the state ID card. It’s an ugly situation.

Told a couple people about this deal but don't know if anybody else took advantage
Place I grab from has a 30% Off deal for boxing day and introduced a new cookie that they were doing a special 2 for 1 deal ontop of the 30%
I ordered 4 cookies so I received 8 for a total cost of 44bux :)
Each cookie is lab tested at 272mg, so almost 2200mg here
Should be a nice Saturday and Sunday night :)
One did break but no big deal

It will definitely be interesting how this pans out. I knew it wouldnt be good. Theres a 10mg per dose cap on edibles. You can get ten dose bars for a total of 100mg but they will be ridiculous. No more 250 or 500’s for me.

That's ridiculous and the kind of shit I don't understand at all
It makes me think they make these laws without doing any testing or even looking into past testing on individual tolerance
I would absolutely be making own edibles and not purchasing shit
If you vape, just use the abv

Fuck being ripped off for 10mg

Just saw this for you guys in and around Vancouver
Greenmarket is heading out west, they'll have tons of edibles and pretty much everything you need at varying price points they usually have a bunch of samples but really don't know which companies are heading out
As i find out, I'll let you know who to check out

8 days later
skunk #1 42f
She's under 2 x 400w COB leds (about 420 actual watts total) with her siblings in a 3x3. Starting the KoolBloom next feed till harvest to fatten her up.

I'm still dialing in my cloning technique. Ultra-low humidity here makes it a challenge. I'm in the 75% success-rate range, but I can do better.

I do have 3 struggling little cuts barely rooted from a Kush-Blueberry cross that I have high hopes for, plus I'm going to re-veg this Skunk after harvest and do a run or two with her.
I've been running a few cuts from a really nice Ganesh Spirit fem, but I'm ready to move on from that strain.

So much interesting genetics and only a limited amount of space and time.

The ph was too high at the beginning so it wasn't allowing certain nutrients to get eaten
You can see some yellowing on the edges of some of the fan leaves from it

I’m not saying it’s not and hopefully you got it figured out. Keep in mind, even though high or fluctuating PH will cause nutrient lockout so will things like bad nutrients and salt build up like we discussed previously. I said it was ‘clogging nutrient uptake’ but it’s the same thing. Did you ever test the PPM of your nutrient mix and runoff to compare the two?

Nice haul, Jason. Are prices at the dispensaries in any way affected by the upcoming legalization?

Since I started growing, I've become a total cheap prick about paying for weed.
I'll be pulling down about 1/2 a LB before the end of the first week in February and I'm pissed off at myself for not timing my harvest better.
In the meantime I had to hit the BM & have an order coming from my LP. Crazy to think what I used to spend on this stuff.

the prices havent changed at all.its a weird time right now. legalization is around the corner but the provincial and local govts are starting to crack down on dispensaries.right now in my small town there are maybe 7 dispensaries and the city is fining them 1000 bucks a day. across the bridge there might be another 7 dispensaries and the city of kelowna is pulling their business licences .they have been operating for years and in a few months will be legal but now it seems like everyone is trying to get a piece of the weed pie and cover their own asses at the same time.weed on the black market is dirt cheap and people are having a hard time getting any more than 1200 a pound. legalization isnt really doing what anyone wanted.its a crazy liberal plan
