The AMT Marijuana Thread

The House just "legalized" marijuana. Now let's  see of the dysfunctional Senate can do the right thing.

I read that the republicans have been told to pass it since 70% of Americans want it.  If they do what 70% want then chances are the young (who are the biggest advocates for legalization) will vote republican.

Congrats NJ! 

NY just started running commercials about cannabis conversations going over basic use. Seems very unreal, like a cheech and Chong movie. But I’ve seen no info when retail opens up here.

Originally it was supposed to be by the end of 2022... then Cuomo continued to sit on the fence and not actually set up/initiate any of the bureaucratic groups and procedures, then came the scandal.  They started saying it was delayed and sometime in 2023...  Hochul took over and promptly moved things along to her credit.

Now people including Native Americans are loopholing the shit out of this and selling it, so I think NYS is getting on their horse and i'm hearing that we will have shops ready to go in 2022 again.

My prescription ends in a few weeks, Im not getting a new one because recreational shops are months away, so I decided to stock up.  

Forgot it was 4/20.  Place was hopping.  Ended up buying 1/8 of Sour Diesel and 1/4 of Purple Urkel.  Both smell delicious, like the best smelling strain Ive ever smelled.  It made me happy just breathing it in.  

Also got some Orange and Strawberry 5mg gummies.

I've heard that some of the Northeast states require the shops to have a security guard onsite all the time, which I find weird.

Not weird at all unless the shops take only CC for purchases! Just think about the shops will have plenty of buds & cash perfect for robbery!

So I see they've begun recreational sales in New Jersey. Do you have to be a Jersey resident to buy? Or can you, for example, drive from Pennsylvania because you'd rather drive than depend on your aloof weed guy?

Damn you have shitty dealers I have peeps who deal top notch product way better than any dispensary I also have a great grower from California who ships me fantastic organic grown weed when I don’t have any of my own grown..

Yes, you can drive over from PA., but it's Illegal to cross back over the PA. State line.

Thanks for the info. I figured it would be like that. I doubt the dispensaries would question whether or not you're going to cross the state line with it. I assume they'll just make the sale, and if the cops were to bust me on my way back, that's on me.

yeah, Im pretty sure a major goal for NJ was to reap the benefits of NYS lagging behind as well as people from Philadelphia to come across and give them money.

Definitely. I'm so disappointed in Pennsylvania for not getting this done yet. And don't get me started on the federal level.

Word.  We were so close about 2-3 years in a row in NY.  Cuomo's fence-sitting was pissing me off as well as the legislators who were in favor of it, but balking over the details of not enough $ and benefits would go to minorities. 
It was tough, but it did seem we would get there at some point.  It finally happened and its great.  I have been able to buy legally medically for the past few years (for $150 a year for an online doctor appt)...  but flower was opened up by the new law as well as gummies. 

Federally... I dont get it.  I think something like 70% of Americans are in favor of it.  Just do it dummies

I’ve heard about your sucky alcohol laws in PA. Do you think they can pull off legal weed without messing it up?

Just got this weeding cake from Cali! Exquisite taste&quality of buds from a friend who’s an organic grower!
