    Love to see it thanks man! Please cover AQST stock if you get time. They have price targets of $12,16 and 24 now which is a little crazy. Maybe it can hit $6 again. It was at $6.40 then they got rejected for libervant in 2021 and now it looks like it will be approved in a few months guys

    I love this product it melts like hash you can sprinkle it in a bowl like pixie dust and I am a firm believer that it adds horsepower or the Entourage effect is more whole head. I have a very strong tolerance and when I mix this product it does set me back a touch giving me the desired medicated effects.

    You have to think of the tax it generates, these states are just now realizing how much $ they’ve lost out on by the prohibiting of cannabis and that’s without THCa being sold under a medical/recreational license, once the grubby law makers catch on and start taking recreational sales at 10% or higher added on top of regular tax I bet people will start going back to the black market if they have a good source

    @@gritted Because according to the law its "under .03 percent regular thc" which ONLY LEGALLY makes its hemp, but as we all know when you smoke regular weed thc-a turns into normal thc. Regular weed often does have pretty close to no thc and mostly thc-a but just a bit more than what can be sold and shipped....say .04 to 1 percent. This loophole is allll about legal definitions.

When I was young I’d grab an Oz of OG and that stuff would make my whole house smell, nowadays if you order OG you’ve gotta stuff your nose in the bag to smell anything crazy….
