I live in Portland Oregon. We have the most breweries last I’d checked. I think there’s a good chance we might have the most recreational cannabis shops per capita.
I moved here from San Antonio Texas. I was there a couple years. I couldn’t take the small town cop mentality there. You get the feeling cops are always hunting you there.
I came to Portland and the police leave you alone here for the most part. Been here 5 yrs and haven’t even got a ticket.
It will be interesting to see what happens. There’s currently a large over production here. I’ve heard of some growers selling pounds to dispensaries as low as $75 a lb. yes a pound. Growers want something over nothing right now.
Recreational cannabis you can get $80 to $90 ounces all day. What are medical ounces going for there? Hopefully they don’t lag far behind.
There isn't a price structure yet. The state is going through the process of issuing licenses for pharmacies to carry it. There will be one pharmacy per region, and there are 9 arbitrary regions in the state. I can imagine that after things get going the prices will be high because of the limited amount of competition. The only legal growers are LSU and Southern University. In typical Louisiana politics it is ate up from the laces up.
