This is from 2016. Would be interesting to see an update report
wtf is it a repost? ive never seen it
@@kunjyiu1671 always good to read video descriptions.
I bet most of the people who tried to jump on the bandwagon had a rude awakening. In the end the weed industry did not grow as big as much people tought it would.
@@dragonmares59110idk what planet you’ve been living on but the weed industry is massive and only continues to grow as someone that lives in a weed legal state - it’s THRIVING -
Yea, I'm tired of seeing the same regurgitated content from years ago. Vice needs to put out new content.
posting something this old is really a disservice as the industry has drastically gone downhill since this. Please cover that.
Vice went out of business. Nothing new incoming.
@@konstantinanthonyromanov6952 Wow! Nooooooo!
good to know
@@konstantinanthonyromanov6952 really?
It's called weed for a reason, one plant in a pot will supply you for a year. If it is federally legalized the industry will collapse
Please add a date to this video - for people not to assume it’s fresh 2024 news
I feel most people who watch this know that because this seems like the beginning of the hey Abby if you ask me
Right I saw this years ago lol
"This episode of Weediquette first aired on VICE TV in 2016." from - description
Read the description 😂 🤦🏻♂️
There is a date 😅
‘Please please please’ give us an update, I’m sad to know that they don’t do these episodes anymore. It’s so amazing to watch things that open up your mind and you learn new things in life. Thank you Vice.
I saw this and said outloud, "In 2024?". The weed industry in Colorado has been struggling bad for a couple years now and I would love more details on that!
Psychedelics saved me from years of uncontrollable depression, anxiety, smoking, and illicit pills addiction. Imagine carving heavy chains for over a decade and then all of a sudden that burden is gone. Believe it or not, in a couple of years they'll be all over for treatment of mental health related issues.
Congrats on your recovery. Most people don't realize that psilocybin can be used as a miracle medication to save lives.
To be honest, mushrooms are one of the most amazing things on the planet and it is natural, they serve in many ways not only for mental related issues.
Can you help me with a reliable source I would really appreciate it. Many people talk about mushrooms and psychedelics but nobody talks about where to get them. It is very hard to get a reliable source here in Switzerland. Really need!
Yes, Sporeville. I have the same experience with anxiety, depression, PTSD, and addiction... Mushrooms definitely made a huge difference to why I'm clean today.
I wish they were readily available in my place.
Microdosing was my next plan of care for my husband. He's 59 & has many mental health issues plus probably CTE & a TBI that left him in a coma 8 days. It's too late now I had to get a TPO as he's 6'6 300+ pound homicidal maniac. He's constantly talking about killing someone.
He's violent. Anyone reading this Familiar w/ BPD knows if it is common for an obsession with violence.
but is it tegrity
Tegrity farms😹🔥
@@nengikalada-green9616so immature
@@fedsmoker7714so was that comment TF? 🤣
Same taught immediately entered my mind reading the title of the video lol
No. Tegrity wouldn't have complained to a cop about 6 people smoking weed outside His bar!
Weediquette was from 2016? This entire story and everything in it is ooollllldddd.
Bring this show back
I hope Coltyn is doing well, he seems like a bright and kind soul
People are leaving Colorado now and our marijuana sales are down... nobody wants to pay tax on something they can grow better....
i feel bad for the girl sacrificing her life to see her sister be ok. what a trooper.
There are quite a few cannabis refugees in Colorado from the old days and new ❤
Man this episode really hit my soul really feel bad for the kids that are sick and really need the medicine I'll keep them in my prayers
It’s sad that our government knows that cannabis can help millions of Americans but refuses to do anything about it! Both parties are at fault and I feel like big pharmaceutical companies are filling the pockets of both sides of the isle!
Thats from a time when vice still pi ked up interesting subjects.
did anybody hear my guy said he worked for Reagan?
23:08 "he grew up when I was growing up..." I dont think thats possible 🤔 🤣
They missed on a huge marketing opportunity not calling it Soda-Pot
Quit reposting old videos
why? Im really happy i saw this
vice went bankrupt. No more new nothing
why is this a rerelease
Seen the title immediately taught of Randy marsh 😂
i went to high school with hunter. thats awesome seeing him doing great!
Dang this is 8 years old for real? And they trying to make it seem like it’s current news like the industry is currently this way smh
Ayooo WTF @4:26 are you seasoning my guy?!? The Top to the f**king Frying Pan 😭😂🤭
My son suffers from Crohn's disease & he just wasn't himself. Low-grade temp, stomach problems, going @ both ends. Never ended while home on the weekends from college.
It seems to be working. Glad I brought it up to him all these years later. Praise God for natural remedies.
Can we get an update on this 2016 video? This is most definitely not up to current times, as things have come along way the past 8 years.
I was investing in cannabis from 2015 to December 2019. I then cashed out all my cannabis stocks and invested in real estate which is another segment I had about 15 years experience at that time. I have made much more money with the real estate. That said the biggest profit, ROI, I have ever made was in a CBD stock in 2018. I bought the stock for 0.32 cents a share and sold at $8.00 a share. One of those once in a decade opportunities but when you know you know. And I know for the foreseeable future real estate is what I will do best with. The cannabis market is suffering due to over taxation, over regulation and a lack of banking. And frankly, if your state/government doesn't support legal cannabis then they by default support the shady black market.
Everyone should call their US senators and encourage them to sign on to the Senate bill CAOA that legalizes cannabis at the federal level. 18 senators have signed up. Let's get this passed !
50 seizures a day?!?! Not only can't I imagine what those parents are going through I honestly don't want to... my heat goes out to them and hope their little one does well.
All that Dixie elixir logo is fire I stuck that sticker everywhere even on the stick shift for my sunbird
Squares in the game. Still rocking the blurple lighting.
Unless you grow outdoors on your property, you should just buy it from someone else.its way cheeper and efficient way to get good quality herb.
Billions from MIDS
Not even Mids! Mids used to get me high! The crap they are selling in these Dispensaries don't even get me high!
@@bigwill6089I thought I was the only one. The high is not hitting the same. They found a way to make the weed look pretty but it’s smoking on nothing.
This plant helps us all every day. From caesars Depression and a hole lot more. That was an awesome show ✌️ 🔥🔥💨💨
I LOVE THE MESSAGE of this video.. but those burgers were 100% raw 😂
I've Owned a Hemp Dispensary here in Louisville,Ky since 2019. Medical Cannabis will FINALLY be Legalized next yr in 2025. Watching this Makes Me Excited about The Future!
Take care of your kids by any means necessary! God bless any family seeking help. 🙏🏽
LEGALIZE IT!! Greetings from Canada ;)
Nice always watching from Georgetown Guyana south America 🇬🇾🇬🇾
I have Crohns Disease and my life hasn't been the easiest to live. The fact that weed helps to control it gives me hope in finding remission
Fossil material
tha's an interesting document, well done!
I love seeing people get along with eachother over Marijuana. Haha
weed machine is a dumb idea
Hey Vice please keep releasing your old videos it's great 😃😃
This video made me cry 😭
dam, the cost to deal only in cash must be huge, how much do they pay to move the 100K? And then store their cash stash?
This dude was on point about cannabis oil being the future of the industry
Yeah marijuana has really helped the quality of life in Denver
Cheers
I love when they sound so American and English I wish everyone sounded like that❤
My man sporting Belphegor and Death \m/
1200$ for a build you can do for 600 now LOL
I am completely loving this
Havent seen this in a LONG time!
Look into the first person in USA history to ever own a recreational pot shop and also be a political party member (the mayor of Kennewick, Washington. Also the Owner of Green2Go)
oh its from 2016 ...
Why would you need a grow place that turns the fans off or anything for that matter. Obviously lights but that should be on a timer. Everything else should be based on the set environment using sensors.
Per federal law:
"While the vast majority of states have reformed cannabis laws, the federal government’s position has remained largely unchanged since the early 1970’s. Except in very rare circumstances, at the federal level, marijuana and marijuana products are illegal and subject to criminal law enforcement through the Drug Enforcement Agency, or DEA.
Yet while the federal government continues to enforce marijuana prohibition, state governments regularly tax and regulate cannabis production and sales. Millions of Americans in over three dozen states access marijuana products despite federal law. This difference in approaches has created a huge number of challenges for consumers, regulators, law enforcement, and businesses. This won’t really change until federal law changes."
Until the federal law changes, the weed business is ALL CASH ONLY. That is the caveat of the weed business. Its not secure in any form or fashion. Those who are looking to steal the cash will steal the product instead. Product is delivered by the different companies like WYLD, in addition, to sell in your state it has to be GROWN in your state.
Just like everything else, there will be an over saturation of weed dispensaries across the states. Perfect example is the state of Oregon. There is literally a pot shop on every block, like in the city of Salem. However, in the state of Idaho, its illegal, but the traffic jams are HUGE.
"Hotbox Farms is a big player in an economic boom that’s happened since Ontario allowed recreational pot shops in 2018. There are now twelve dispensaries in this small farming town once mostly known for inventing the tater tot. Ontario now sells more pot per capita than anywhere else in Oregon. The industry employs about 600 people. Many get health insurance and most - like their customers - appear to be commuting over here from Idaho."
This piece is from 2016...Vice should do a follow -up and see what has happened.
New Mexico Is having a major issue with getting legal cannabis seized by border control. I would love to see a video on this. I work for the industry in New Mexico.
Big business should leave the weed market alone.
lol. the black market owns the industry
2016 report…
It kinda sucks that a lot of the people starting cannabis businesses weren't even into pot before they saw an opportunity to make money.
Yeah. There is no money left. Anyone in the industry knows this
yeah we have 7mg a piece... yes let me get diabetes by having to eat 420 chocolates lmao
I'm favoured, $50K every week! I can now give back to the locals in my communitv and also support God's work and the church.God bless America
How
..? Am a newbie in crypto investment, please can you guide me through on how you made profit?
A lot of people still make massive profit from the crypto market, all you really need is a relevant information and some professional advice.
Thanks to Mrs Deborah Davis.
She's a licensed broker here in the states
YES!!! That's exactly her name (Deborah Davis) so many people have recommended highly about her and am just starting with her 😊 from Brisbane Australia🇦🇺
Talk about nominative determinism lol
This is heartbreaking 💔
Vice is going Downhill.That's why they're doing reruns!!
I shed a tear when the lady said cannabis saved all of their lives. I'm glad we are progressing towards legalization.
of course ppl whove been selling and getting knocked for years get cut in line by ppl who just got the complexion for the connection
As a Humboldt County California chick, yeah...I feel ya there. These people are fucking annoying AF.
This is so 10 years ago. This cant be new. Its like stepping back in a time machine. At least put a date on the video
This guy at the beginning is serving alcohol to welcome his guests....that's really authentic.
4oz every 3 months ain’t shit…I smoke more than that easy. I wouldn’t buy that product.
Old video, recreational weed is the Wild West . I bet 50% of the weed grown there is sold outside of the state . AND I LOVE IT 😂
Proud to be a MMC Coloradan. 😢❤🎉
the big corporations ended up controlling it all and went to crap lmao
This is such a good video😊
The first things gotta be bigger I use about 3oz of flower a week.
So we got a Reaganite government insider who when they saw people smoking attempted to get them arrested owning a premium cannabis brand with the hopes of expanding and monopolizing. Great exactly what was envisioned when cannabis was being promised as legalized. We as the consumers must demand a better industry.
They make millions, and all I ever got was time...
No way in hell I’m buying weed from a butterball named “Tripp” 😂😂😂
The western world needs more and more weed … just to release this anxiety, stress , sadness and depression …
😢😢😢😢 wonderful i can watch this over and over. The kid part is beautful.
Where are they now?
"Cannabis saved his life" made me shed a tear
😊John Denver said it best " Rocky Mountain High "
The gentrification of the weed industry is so depressing. Cooperate weed is killing cannabis culture.
No it's not killing the culture the culture is kept alive by home growers
explain to me thc like idk what it is again
:::eye roll::: -- Me @ this entire vid & Colorado, as Humboldt County, Cali chick
I did a happy dance at my first american cannabis experience in Bolder!!! I forgot the store it was on a corner i think.
Glad I read the comments before watching this video. In the industry myself..old news is..no news. The industry has changed so much since this video was produced. Don't bother moving to Colorado thinking you will strike it rich in the game. In the beginning pounds went for 3-4k. Now, they are just 300.00 a unit. Easier to broker than grow. Anyone can do it...just move to Colorado.
Let's get high
Most def
Absolutely
No thanks I only do that when I’m not
Did I really just cry over some pot
Any free samples?
8 half mins in and not one Joint fried up....
the Taj Mahal comment? lmaaoaooa
Question... I live in Seattle and right down the block from me are 2 dispensaries. If I were to call the FBI and say that I would like to report a Federal Crime... 2 stores down the block from me are selling marijuana. Aren't the FEDs obligated to go shut them down and arrest them?
narc
VICE with another fresh news story, only 8 years late
I was watching this years ago
Weed has been on earth since the beginning of time, it’s natural medical relief
This guy gives off major "quantity over quality" vibes. Most of what comes out of CO dispensaries is mids and thus, the black market remains king.
