Also use blood and bone meal, little bit of everything, I go soft on the fert. Been growing sense 13 but anyway cheers, can't wait to take a few cuts or these and throw em into the 12 tent

Literally fresh out of the package. I’ve had people tell me “oh but they can’t fill it all the way!!!” All I’ll say is that Sweetgrass uses similar cart hardware and they fill theirs up all the way. Unless the mass of thc oil changes depending on what state you’re in then this is just a straight up ripoff

When Connecticut legalized cannabis, lawmakers explicitly opted against a free and open market, instead empowering regulators to arbitrarily cap licenses and control supply. If you want to understand why current operators aren't fighting to fix this artificial bottleneck, you have to look at the underlying economics.

What we are witnessing in the state is a textbook case of regulatory capture combined with rent extraction. By tightly controlling who gets to participate, the state has created a dependent licensee constituency. The industry's silence on meaningful market reform is simply system justification reinforced by a patron-client relationship between operators and the regulators who hold the keys to the market.

None of the current license holders advocate for dismantling this broken structure because they directly benefit from it. They operate as a privileged minority, defending an exclusionary system simply because they receive a share of the rents it creates.

The defining feature of this market is that the minority's loyalty isn't bought with a massive amount of upfront wealth, but with the exclusivity of that wealth. For these license holders, the barrier to entry isn't a flaw to be fixed. The barrier to entry is the actual product they are defending.

True equity requires open markets, fair competition, and accessible capital, not closed loops that protect a hand-picked few.
