    The prices are utterly terrible in Ohio.
    It’s almost 3 to $400 to buy an ounce of some basic mid shelf stuff whereas in Michigan you can get top shelf stuff for 300 an ounce and you can get the stuff you get in Ohio for about 80 bucks an ounce.

      Not to mention, what's being sold as rec. in Ohio is the "medical" they are having trouble pushing or about to expire.
      Concentrates are worse than the flower, by far though.

      @ it’s really sad. The people who lose in Ohio with recreational cannabis are the medical patients because now their prices have been driven sky high. And the quality is not that great.

      Ohio just recently got into the legal ganja game, so calm down, take a breath & chill for a minute. Less mature market states such as Ohio need a bit more time than only 3 months to increase the competition & innovation in order to cause wholesale prices to decrease on the same level as other states like Michigan are in right now. I agree Michigan definitely has their shlt together more than many other states around the country. But, if you're a true blooded Buckeye fan from O-H... The last place you'd really wanna give your business too would be the Michigan Blue Wolverines state, right or wrong? Just saying... 🤔 The mile high state of Colorado is were I'd get my dope from all the time if I had my pick of the liter & CO wasn't so far away from us here in Ohio. Let's keep it a buck ya dig? ++Peace Funk & Rock n' Roll 4 Your Soul My Friends++ 🤘😜🤘

      Granted Michigan has a fine selection of high quality ganja you can get for sure. Plus, being it's only a hop, skip & a jump away from Ohio helps too! But let's not act like Michigan is the end all be all powerhouse state that overseceeds anywhere else in this world my friends. Just saying... For example places like BC & Jamaica are 2 destinations where I'd buy all my dope from if legally given the opportunity to buy from without any worry.

      @susannpatton2893, Granted you, me & most other Ohio citizens may not be able to become legal marijuana business owners, stressing the word "legal" if you dig what I'm saying. However, almost everyone of us in the state of Ohio over 21 are allowed to grow our own dope if we want too! After recently passing the Issue 2 bill into Ohio law we're now legally allowed to grow up to 6 plants a year. Which is more dope than you need or think you'll need if you have a pretty decent green thumb & know how to grow. Even if you have the skills & can get ahold of the best seeds there are to grow. We still don't have the ability to grow the quality of weed there is in other parts of the world today no matter how hard we try. At least not living in our own house or property in the state of Ohio anyways. There are too many differences in climate & cultivation areas in comparison to what we have in Ohio. Even if you have a kick-azz hydroponic system to grow your own shlt. It still won't be on the same level as some of the dope they grow in Humboldt County, Northern Cali. Just saying... Let's keep it a buck! ++Peace Funk & Rock n' Roll 4 Your Soul My Friends++ 🤘😜🤘

    And then we have politicized dispensaries that quietly refuse lower income medical marijuana card holders service . often by misbehaving . It's Because they get a lot more money selling the same item as recreational so they'd rather get these sick often low income people out of their stores . And hes gkt it backwards. there's plenty of average busch beer grade. Bottom rung half ounces On shelves in northeast Ohio but no craft brews with excellent cannabinoids .

      The one's who are making money are folks who can stand on both feet comfortably _without_ owning or running a dispensary.
      The state awarded some licenses to minorities who then got squeezed out by larger, multi-state corporations who drive the price on their garbage.
      This is the same with food and other goods. When there is little to no competition, the one's providing goods drive the price.
      When the market is flooded with home grown cannabis (which will never happen in Ohio) _that_ is when it'll be $3/g
