Florida pot doctors warn about potential chaos after
recreational marijuana legalization
. . .
Their fear - or profit picture - revolves around the
claim that bona-fide medical cases will no longer be
able to get "quality" weed ... that it'll all go
totally laisez-faire.
But I suspect "profit picture" is the greater issue.
As for "quality" weed ... some org, which should
include some docs/chemists ... ought to offer
a sort of quality cert thing for various growers.
IF their product is consistently of good even
quality - as objectively evaluated/tested - THEN
they get the "Doctors Certification".
Successful farms COULD have dual ops, regular-
whatever-weed AND a special higher-price brand
that will get them the coveted certification.
Well on my display all the text above was invisible.
Hitting follow up exposed it to view.
It is not the weed that is so important to medical
patients but edibles in reliable dosages. I cannot smoke
as it causes me great pain in my throat. I have brochitis
from my myriad allegies and about 20 years of smoking mostly
using bongs but even vaporizers causes the pain. My cannabis
medications cost me <$80/month.
Must have smoked a LOT of something for THAT
bad a reaction.
In any case, again said "edibles" can get the
Seal Of Approval. They'd be evaluated for the
amount/types of THC plus some other relevant
(perhaps toxic) extra ingredients. The certified
products could be sold at a premium ... but that
would still likely be fairly cheap.
These days, Fentanyl/Tranq-free has become very
important, life & death sometimes. A certified
source with high testing standards IS the safest
path. Broader legalization allows good people
access to the ingredients too, not just evil people.
There's now a LOT of money in weed and subproducts.
It's the new booze. Money DOES count - and tends
to drive every equation.
