Yo, what's going on? Everybody? Welcome to a new episode of My Cannon Cast. I'm Canadave and I'm really On today's episode, we're gonna be talking about crop Tober. Since it is crop Tober, everyone's playing should be hopefully coming down on hope soon, especially with the cold we've had. And then we've got a lot of things happening in cannabis all around. So we got some updates and numbers from the State of Michigan for September. Cannabis seeds

are starting to fly off the shelves. I wonder why that's when getting to that and me, I know why obviously, I'm I'm pretty excited. It means people are growing. We have some updates about potentially new law passing in Michigan for kindergarteners being able to use medical cannabis, which interesting. So, yeah, we have flaws, but with kids voices, I don't. I don't have a button for that. No, no, we do not,

we do not. But I think you want to jump into one of the articles first groove you want to choose, well, we want to kill first. I think we'll end on crop to just is always want to give a shout out to old Score gainings Am I allowed Flower Ami Fire Provisioning CC. They're all around us in the back, are fan. They're my mind right over there, Emerald right there. I don't know the support the homies. I wish I should move that because my head's kind of in the way now

I think about it. But AnyWho love them just want to shout them out, check out their ship, tell them I can't can't send you there. They're fan. Yeah, so yeah, I'm excited to talk about stuff today. We don't have a review today, which is a little different, so like I feel weird like not starting off with something. So I'm starting off with some dabs. I guess why you start off with the dap. I'll

talk about the event I went to. Yeah you went to? Well, yeah, I guess I'll asked the question candidate, what event did you go to yesterday? Well, groovy the event I went to last night. It was a pretty cool event in all seriousness. I was put on by the Pink Sash or yeah society that's about cancer, breast cancer. Well, I believe they throw a lot of events and I just saw the pink ribbon, so yeah, this one was specifically put on fundraising for PAM. I think

who's who's who is going through cancer? And they did baked Bingo Bingo, which it was really baked. Let me tell you, I imagined a bunch of people names well named, I mean no, no, everyone's smoking and ship a lot of weed, right, everyone smoking a lot of ship.

We talked about weed. Yeah, I think you're okay. Ship ship And it was just funny because like one of the announcers was going slow and then the other one, I swear like, sped it up, was like G fifty five, G fifty three, B fifty two, and I'm like, oh my god, I can't even go that quick. I know. I was playing with you too. I had Jamie across from me and uh Jamie loll and we were chatting and there was one game where I thought someone won, so I cleared off my whole board. No one, You're like yeah,

So I was like, Jamie, I've been out. And then that took because it was the one they had to make an X and Jamie was pretty close. They had like two more left and he would have won. But did anyone win that was in next to I don't think so. I don't think so. I lost all my matches, but that was sweet. There was a couple of cool UH brands there, tons of uh they did like raffle tickets because it was all donations that were going to uh yeah, and tons of baskets, like you paid for the tickets to get in.

All that was going to the cause. And it was very remarkable, a huge turnout. Tons of people there, like it was. It was sweet to be a part of element. Had dabs there, so took some took a rosen dab of the melanade with no gypsy soap. I've had sounds good. Yeah, it was you would have liked. It was more on the gassier side. The other one was melanie, which is more on the sweeter side. I did not try that. And then we got ice cream that

was medicated. They had medicated caramel. I think ahead to be because the lady was like, how much do you want? I said, pour it up, like just a lot, like all right, my medicine and my two cups the best. They had some good pulled pork too at the ends, like you've been had food so like it was just it was good, well well done, Pam, and you said, pink sash the Pink Sash, Pink Sash Society go by the Pink Sash, and I g well, no, I mean, hey, got it, just showing them love.

They invited you know, well you and uh uh well my Canna best Yeah, well no, I didn't know. I was like, what do I call her? That's an inside joke between me and her, Like, ha, no, legit. I was like, oh, yeah, that's her name, Cherry the two. Oh that's great. That's hilarious spelled am I like my can cast? I just I think that's a good idea. I

don't know, that's all I'm saying. I like her idea there, Ye, shout out to her, shout out to invite her out, to bring us out, to bring my can of casts, my can of homies. That's actually what the group should be. Oh, shout out to uh Seana from Soso. We're kicking it. She uh, We're gonna do a dab of some apple fretter. So thank you, Seanna. He's gonna share one dad with me, Sean, so thank you for the dab. Now he'll be getting half. But all honestly, it was a great It was a

great event. I'm glad it was able to attend and yeah, man, talk to a bunch of people. Got a couple of interviews will be setting up as well too. So we know we say that to you every week, but it's actually pretty frustrating because we forget every five we make. We forget about three, right, so then two get passed on right now, I'm dead haass serious. It's not like anything personal. It's just like we have our own day jobs and until this is what we're doing full time.

But we are investing in ourselves. So we have a couple of candidates that we're going to reach out to you for some help. Oh it looked way darker that like some good stuff. It looked way darker. I didn't buy it because it looked darker at the store. Interesting, what looks like a little heart? Yeah, yeah, yeah, I'm surprised you give me any I'm you don't have to. I mean, no, no, you might do. Of course I share with me, So I say, you'd feel

guilty because the next time when I get something, you'd do. It's like when I got that cush Master stuff you were like, I was like, I got like puppy eyes, like please, it was fire too, and that smells fire too. I mean, dude, we love to get sozo on and more talk of for one of them, but start, I do, well, we've had that kind of I know now it's at the point where we know. Well the way My whole point is that they put up the ros like and you know, and they were like, he's like,

what's your favorite follower by me? I was like, I'm honest, man, like, I like your hant a little blue, but it's like the only one that smoked everything else, like it is a rosen here, like I dad like their dads. The live resent I got it was batter was pretty good. I actually should have Oh, I actually do have a little bit. There's not much but your son, it's fruity pebbles o G. That's live. That was a live resent. So you can tell you when

you look at your well, it's pretty good. Consistent. No, they're consistency in the live resident smell. I'd like to talk to the cults, builders or the processors for sure. Anyways, Yeah, cool, cool, vemming, glad you win, dude. Cool to be in the scene or at least try this fritter and then yeah we can jump in the Yeah,

we'll jump into some articles. You know, anyone else you want to shout out besides okay, trying to think, no no no no no no no no no no. I'm trying to think because you met a lot of people. Yeah, I was talking. Uh re met Carle, one of the Kohners in Mets Cafe when we were sit next to Jamie and then that was funny because we met once and I was like, I kind of don't remember your name. She said the same thing and I was like, what was

her name, Carlylie? I know Stacea Stacy name. Yeah, I do that often if I if you follow me on i G and we've talked on I G, I literally call you by your IG and that's the main thing. His first name, that's right now, cool man cool. So it look it looked like a cool event, you know. I love I love seeing that type of stuff like for any like different type of ideas like the Bingo night. I like that, just a different way to throw an event. Fun. So, yeah, these are all of these articles today we

have our Michigan they're all Michigan based. Uh So, I don't know exactly where you wanted to start. Did you have a specific I was gonna start with the B Provisioning and Big Rapists just to give them a shout out real quick. All right, so I'm gonna I'm gonna start in this article. So super cool. There's a discpo called B Provisioning b E Provisioning and they're joining the big Rappist community, all female led cultivation business So pretty cool,

shout out nothing, it's good to see that. More more female led businesses like that, and like last night with like the pink size in the canvas industry, because yeah, yeah, it's it's great to see it because it's been male bomb in the industry for for like ever. Right, Yeah, how sweeter, Fritter. I like to enjoyed it sometimes a little more like this is sweeter. I didn't even get to my dad, Okay, I

just want to shout them out. The new vendors step forward. The company's goal of expanding its footprint making a positive impact on communities with deep roots in Michigan. So it sounds like they're rooted to Michigan. The company is led by partner entrepreneur influencer Dreca Gates, who has carved a significant pressure Yeah that's Kevin Gates's wife like I got two phones. He's a rapper now anyways, ship really Drake. Yeah, so you said it like you knew her.

I'm like, oh, I thought like, oh I met her last night. I wish I knew her. I thought you about to be like I met her last night. That would have been that would have been a small world, right, No when you said drac a right, no shit. So yeah, it seems like they care, like they seems like they're you know, they're here to be in Michigan and be a part of the community. So cool nine to nine pm opening October fourteenth, which is actually already past now, so this gets open. We will go check that out.

I don't even know what Big Rapids is, to be honest, Like Grand Rabbits, we are making a weekend trip out there whenever. Yeah, Freddy surey, Surety does work out here in Michigan on the West coast, on the west side, not the West coast. She was with like another dispo because she was at Man. I can't think of it. It's more on the west side, probably forty thirty minutes north Indiana in that general area.

Okay, ok, but that's good to see Man. Just I just like seeing female led businesses in the cannabis base because I'm really a big fan of I mean, my day job community open up to these words like inclusion and understanding why equity and inclusion and are important to different groups depending on their you know, backgrounds and stuff you know and like, uh and you know issues that everyone deals with in different ways, right and because we all have different

situations based on our background, right So I think it's actually a fascinating thing. So being introduced to the words like this, I feel like it brings such a when you include, include and have different races and different genders and different you know whatever, all that stuff, all the uniqueness in the world,

you bring that melting pot together. I really think you come up with the most ideas because you have different perspectives from each background, right Like, you know, someone in the LGBTQ community is going to have a different perspective than you know someone who is just like a cismele, right Like, because just just based on your backgrounds and perspectives and if you're able to work together, I feel like that's when you bring really really powerful ideas because the uh,

someone told me this a long time ago, and I don't want to butcher it that the uh singular, the collective mind is greater than the singular. Yeah, I love that. So and then I just like to add on to that because we have different perspectives. You know, you don'tt to have all the same person you know, you don't want to have all candidaves

who are assessed with growing. Because even that's why I think we have a beautiful back and forth, because you know, I don't look at we the same way you do, but I also really love and appreciate it, you know, So that difference in our perspectives helps. No, it doesn't. And I mean our passions within the plant. I mean, you like the plant, but obviously I love I love the plant, you love you love the ros and I love the flower. Like we have counteracts each other.

So I love the perspective. That's good. And it is better to have a collective than just one because well, and difference like collective of different minds, because then you're able to if you if you can talk in a polite manner and agree and not judge or get defensive, then you can really come

up with some beautiful ideas. I feel like, you know, if there's understanding I think that's how some of the best ideas probably came up in the I mean, look at America. Man, the idea was melting pot, right, and I think at the beginning it was beautiful and everyone like, oh man, that's great, Oh my god, that's a good idea. And then somewhere along the lines, someone said them and everything fell apart.

Because I hate when people be like them because you already know they're looking looking at a certain group of people in one way because based on like five instances in their life. Now they're just judgmental. I grew up with that shit. I hate that shit, you know what I mean. So it's just annoying. So I think that's why I like when you see the female lad

er, you know. And I'm sure there's different issues with all these equity programs, like when they like, you know, people, there might be issues or delays, like, but I think the idea is the good part.

You know, how it's being implemented might be tough at first. But because I remember people were like talking smack about the Detroit equity stuff like no, I mean, it's a good idea, and then there was like delays and it was just but there was a lot of remember all that process and it was just like, I mean Detroit in general was a whole delay. Well that's what I was trying to say. Look at it now. Yeah, it popped off once it wasn't actually legal legal this year, I mean

you see events every every weekend, I mean, which I love. I mean, it's so great to see it finally got so many events. Day's going to like two this a month and I'm like, yeah, I mean there's a lot of events, man, there is. I mean, well, and that's why I love like the Cannababe group, like they throw a great event, you know, and like Exotic Matter like that was a different event, right, I just I don't know, I love all these events

that are being thrown too. I mean, I like the one you went to bingo, Like I would have never thought about cannas bingo, but that's chill. I like, you're smoking fat stogies, dude. That one joint we roll Dad Like I don't know who it was, but they had a table of just people just rolling and it wasn't jt rolling like who I'm familiar with, like being at him and they're just rolling these fat fat But you saw it I post on the story. It looked a lot fatter than what

it was in the story. But just passing those I mean, yeah, there was a lot of weed last night. Cool sounds like your type party. Yeah, and they had break you could have brought the puff going on there. You know where was the venue or just started by the Tangent, dude, it was by the Tangent. It was like, it's a cool neighborhood. So you know where the comics center is, Yeah, it's the parking lot, right, and so like it would be on the that the

right street. I was like, Kitty Corners. Mean, wow, it might have been a little bit further down by point one point two miles, but literally I was like, oh, hey, there's the Tangent. I was driving. I know this area very well. Yeah, that's good badass and then that cool events and honestly, yeah, uh So next topic I did want to talk about was I guess we'll just talk about this one. I'll just pull it up because you actually send this to me. Michigan cannabis

sales in September remain flat for a second consecutive month. Dave candidate, your full name name, What are your thoughts on that. Why you think it's stagnant because we've been seeing increasing increase for the past a couple of reasons, five years, a couple of reasons. Okay, only a half percent decline, So it's really not that much relatively, so everyone, I don't think it's a little bit. Right you're about to say everyone calm down, everyone, Oh, I mean, I mean, honestly, okay, I mean

it's September, right, what happened in September here in Michigan. That affects so many employees, autoworkers strike, A lot of people are on strike, unions, you have, you have families that might be hit by this. That people might be buying cannabis, they might not be spending the money. Right. This is something that I'm just thinking because I know for a lot of companies here in Michigan, the auto industry is huge, and with the uall strike, I'm all for it. I mean, you do your thing,

get you do what you gotta do. You're fighting for and everything. But if I was to say, that's probably definitely affecting some sales. I mean, because you're not going to have the supply. You only getting five hundred dollars a month, so and you can't buy cannabis. Ain't gonna be the first thing you're gonna go buy because you got to get your food.

You're play your house, right, there's other I mean, yeah, right, I think people were starting to maybe crop a little bit early, maybe within the year, so they started getting their bud from their outdoor seasons because you see, because you are pull on early saying actually because like we've heard talking to people from up north, they pull early because on how yeah, temper your drop, you just that light deparation, right, So it's about

purpose they pull early up there. That's yeah, that's what you might be cropping. You might have some bud that you might be smoking them. I mean, it is technically Croptober. We're halfway through it too, and it feels like it flew by and granted because like I'm not cropping and I'm not doing don't grow outdoor, I don't grow. So for me, it's like October, right it is, And do I think it might continue in October? It might a little bit, because like the casino workers are about to

go on strike, like there's a lot of things happening. Yeah, there's a lot of things happening within the market. That's like gonna be affecting people's pocketbooks. And you have Croptober, so we know in c Optober this stuff happens. I did see, I've read, not see I saw it, read it. I forgot from where. But there was an article that was stating that there wasn't as much outdoor grown this year here in Michigan compared to

life year. I wonder why, Probably because just the price of the product, probably by the time it comes chopped down and everything just and honestly, I think we're also dealing with like the well, I guess my whole shock was like I think the reason why this lasted so long, like the how the profits were going up where I think there was a lot of that,

hey I'm gonna grow weed, and they grew weed. It was like, okay, so you were seeing people still keep buying weed from the disbo, right, and like they were still buying But now I think you're starting to see will dial it in learn how to grow Now there's always auto flowers with soils where you just feet out water, like there's a lot of ways shout Tommy, but there's a lot of cool ways. I rocked that shit. You gotta shout out at homies. But there's all sorts of things to help,

right, there's the Internet. There's like now you can pay for this on tutorials, you can watch my can cansling, you do all sorts of

things. You talk to Canadave like whatever you gotta do. And it's just like now that information is out there, I feel like weeds starting to get like a little better where I think we're finally now starting to see so much competitive market plus people finally either growing good bud or just gone back to buying off someone that like the market's finally not like consistently moving up like I think

there. I think it's weird, but I think this point, this plateau has just been coming for a while, like it's just been like but it still doesn't mean the industry is bad. There's still making a bunch of money. That's why they don't. I think it's different things that are affecting it. But that's just well, but I said, oh that's it. I mean, dude, inflation is still hitting hard. I mean there's a lot

of things going on. Gas is still up, groceries are up. I mean, people's pocket just g agree Dispo spending all this extra money, you're gonna go buy something cheaper. You might, or you might grow your own, or you might. Well that's what you were just saying. I think you're right. I think people are just buying cheaper stuff where they can afford.

So people are still going to Dispo. They're just spending less. Like It's like when I was even telling you, man, like when things were going up, man, I was like, I gotta buy live residume and there because it's so expensive. Like no, one hundred percent, I did not agree with you. So I just no, no, no, I'm saying it's just a fact. I think there's a lot of things that are playing effector I don't think the industry is dropping at all. That's all I'm

trying to say. I don't think it's toad. I don't think anything. Oh you think this is just a little little tiny bum. Yeah, yeah, you're not gonna go see thirty eight forty you're calling it a plateau. You're calling it almost like a little drop only because of where people are at economically. Absolutely got you. See that's what I was. I misunderstood with you. That's sorry. That's why we reiterate, that's what I got cha.

No, that makes sense, and like because if it was plateauing, I'd be more concerned with like a three percent, five percent, I guess in multiple months. But like you're seeing I guess you're seeing these events. Sorry, no, no, no, no, I guess I just want to say, I really just think we were really too early to tell. We're only two three months in, Like we need to be like six months looking back at least maybe a year, because like I guess we're now.

I think they're just like doing it, probably for clickbait, you know, just to click it says in here, that's weird. What does that mean? Sorry? So, Michigan camus sales in September came in at two hund seventy four point seven millions, so shit ton of money. Half percent declimb from the peak sales of two seventy six point seven million in July. But the good news is September cannabis sales were up still nearly thirty percent year over

year. That's what I'm saying. There's no plateau. It's that's what I'm saying. You're just down from record high and we're talking records that we're talking about, you know, like that's not and the average price for flowers as is sixteen hundred. I also still think that, which is weird because it's much lower. But I think that what also is interesting why they do write this article and why it could make sense is because I do think there is

some effect to like just where the market is finally too. We're finally starting to get a lot of like shit and a lot of good stuff, and people are starting to divide. Right, it's not so much just like I think the shit's money, grab it out. It's a real industry. Now. You have to be good quality product to make good money. Otherwise you

just survive. Yeah, and I think you'll see in the future more and more businesses that are providing a decent quality product might have to shutter up some like shops like or so many shops you might have to just condense to make them smaller, or cut some of your plans or something, because like eventually you have to make profit, right, you can't have so much money and just blow it. Well, and that's it, dude. Yes, So yeah, the articles click baity, but half a percent to clan is I

can see it from both ways. And that's what's kind of that's the only reason why I said, like, you're a hundred. I like what you brought up because I didn't I obviously, it's not that I didn't think about the economic impact. I'm like, people are still gonna go to dispos people are still gonna want to smoke weed when they're stressed out of course, But

the point is they're spending less. And that's the whole point. Yeah, instead of going to get that fifty dollars eighth, you might go and get that thirty five dollars eighth, right, and then or get the quarter for sixty and you're spend ten dollars more, but you're or look at wax straight.

You could get like seven grams of live resent if you're not that picky, like like you or I like, you could just go get some seven grams and it might last you three weeks, four weeks, you know what I mean, like exactly, And you have Croptober and people are gifting cannabis to their friends and family. I mean, yeah, I just think it's so many different ways that it's just that's I think you're right. I don't I think you're right. I almost looked at it as a plateau just because

of like where we are with the industry. But I think when you bring in all your factors, like I think you're I think you're more right, Like it's just what I think. I don't know, No, no, I think we'll do. It's just so many factors. Of course, it's going to be low right when maybe the economic stuff bounces back, or maybe prices are dropping or you know, I don't know, like which is crazy because you're they could drop after this, which a little bit, which would

be wild. I don't do you think it would have dropped by now? You think like you're talking about like consumer price. We're talking about like I guess packaging, not packaging price, but like price for the purchasers, right, so you're per pound or whatever or because I mean, it's just like I don't know. So it's like what you were talking about earlier, and I guess we now is the time to bring it up. I guess the

factor is like how you're growing your weed. Man, if it's indoor all the time, then yeah, of course, but right now, if it's all outdoor, you could flood the market with like a huge crop of shit for like low price or like and cut everyone, undercut everyone, which forces the market to go down. I don't know if it's what they're doing. I don't and in two things to stop that. Yeah, and that's what weird. That's why I was kind of shifting. I even brought down the

article because now let's talk about this for a seconds. So croptober is here, you want to talk about this, I'm gonna let you say the question because I'm a bunch of the ship. Question was brought up to my coffee. That's fine, question was brought up, and I was like, oh, ship, we'll bring it up. We'll talk about it. You know, with obviously cropped ober here and cannabis companies that grow outdoors in the state

of Michigan. And Michigan has you know, tight testing laws the past testing you know, you gotta get your PPM not PPMS, ORMs, whatever it is. It's gotta be like very very small, right, Yeah, I think that's what it's called. And the question was how is the flower not not getting burned down, not getting processed in the edibles or rosin, but how is the flower passing test on the market is again remediated, I mean

personal thought I'm gonna take out the remedia apart how is it passing? To how's it making it to the market, because then it brings to the question. It's an interesting question because it's like testing is very hard because you have brands failing inside facilities, right, and if they're not so the whole Just to clarify for everyone listening, your question is essentially, how are people bringing

this It's so hard to pass tests as is right? That so how are they bringing this outdoor crop to market that has to pass these straight tests? That's what your question is. Yeah, remediation next? How about mediation? Like what else do you think? I mean, because when you're cropping at that giant amouth, they're like fifteen dollars a twenty dollars as Like, how do you think they're passing that quick? I mean, okay, what what

else? But it's our remediation. I don't know you're growing it that good? That's that's my thing. For that cheap I don't know, I don't know how cheap it is, right, assuming it for that hold on it, does it does it say sun grown? No? It doesn't say that. I mean I don't think that's forced here exactly, and I think that that should be labeled here for buyers. Yeah, because some people might not know the difference, might not care, some people might prefer it. We

got some classic heads who love it by the sun. It should be from the sun, like don't don't you've heard it might be like shout out to one of our listeners, I'll mention you, Dave Coyle, I oh, I actually wasn't even well that's my points he multiple heels said that. So it's like we both thought different people but it's different markets and shout appreciation.

I guess my big thing is it's it's it's like it's like formediation. I think remediation should be label like mediation was labeled, then I would know what was going on. And I think sun grown may not look as like a like as a good thing. So that's why people don't do it. You know, it's not looked at it as a good thing, even though to me it's like it's still discuss smoked the butt is it good but or not? I smoked about the door, that's all right, man. I had

smoke that's trash, but I smoked some indoor that was trash. Sorry if you don't know what you're doing, like you're we can suck why it depends on the cultivator. Cultivators. Yeah, well, I'm glad you brought this up, especially because it is Croptober. These are good like Croptober episode. Yeah, I mean it is. Everyone should be cropping. I hope you

are cropping. Temperatures dropped, it's been really rainy, so you want to get you want to get those plants because you don't want that the portritis or the bud rot right or the probably can get get powery mildew too with the swings during the summer. That's what it's tough here in Michigan, man, we get we have a ton that, like powdy milder runs rampant from what I've been told, and I've seen buddies outdoor grows and they were taming that

stuff that was that was insane. But you gotta be careful and that's what anybuddy indoors outdoors whatever, and that's why you have the testing. But it is interesting that that we were talking that we're talking about not that we're talking about that, but that question was brought up. I'm curious what everyone else's thoughts are, So if you're listening, I think we're gonna cut a clip of this post it. If you're listening, let us know your thoughts on

outdoor bud. Is it all getting remediated or is it all passing tests? It's a good question said. If you want the full brea like our thoughts, listen to the episode because we just talked about it. But candidate is curious about your thoughts. Let us know in the comments. I am curious because I said remediation and Dave wasn't sure, so I think you're right. We don't know, like, what are you It's because testing, and I've

heard is very tough, right, I know it's not medical. Medical is very vast, So how are you having But RACKI still rack is still kind of tough to pass testing from when we've talked to many call of fais have been in the many facilities, and everyone when they when they are passing, everyone's boasting like how great their numbers are. And I would be too, right because you want those. So I'm just very curious about how some of the outdoor ones are brower. Let us know in the comments too, if

you think that it's totally possible and different regulations are things you do. I would say it's possible, right because like people are smoking it. I mean, of course it's possible. Like I just said like that before we before the clip like it was, it was there's some good out or a bud out there, like I've had it. Now is it? You know? I think you know? Is it not always? Yeah? But NEI there's any bud. No bud's guaranteed to be good, even if it's an indoor

facility. Yeah, not at all. Man. You wish every bud was good, but it doesn't. Doesn't happen like that. I just feel like I was especially because like your mentality has always been like outdoors like harder to you know, just keep clean because you're out during your outdoors. But like now is it outdoor in uh, what's it called a greenhouse? Then you know different, you know, but would still or you've got to battle you got to battle animals. And I feel like that's the beautiful in between is

having a facility like that great house. Yeah, because now you got you can protect it from the elements, but you also have the sun. You're saving all that lightning and it's just naturally better. So I feel like that would probably be like the chef's kiss for a grower. I don't know. I've never done it, so I couldn't tell you. Yeah, oh no, what do you think do you? You don't know? Oh, Dave, how dare you? I mean one day I might who knows, Ken,

Dave? How dare you not know something? I just really but yeah, yeah, I don't know. Let's say sometimes I don't know if you can tell a difference between outdoor and indoor ground flower. I think you can sometimes, Okay, yeah, I think there's almost a color change to it, or it's a little bit more vibrant compared to the outdoor. I think outdoor is more of like a lighter green, yellower tint. Okay, yellower tint. But okay, yeah, hey, well we're gonna take a quick

like we've been talking about this whole time. Smooth smoke, like Gruvey said, shout out to my far and then old schol Organic, shout out to the team over there. They just released the AJ Diesel or we got to sample it. They're gonna have they're dropping a retro line which is gonna be so sweet and we're gonna be doing like a release on. Just to clarify, I said, AJ Diesel. AJ Diesel is the sour diesel.

It's called the a J Cut of sour Diesel. It's from the East Coast, and yeah, I just want to clarify it because like that is I didn't know what that was. I thought that was super cool. So Jason's bringing back those old schools drains. Check it out, old score gettings. All right? But yeah, next, what's the next? What do you want to talk about? What do you want to talk about? Candy? What do I want to talk about? I want to talk about the kiddo

one? Yeah? Sure, why not? All right? So this is uh, kindergarteners and plus so you know Kinnarns and above will be allowed to use cannabis at school if Michigan passes new law. Well, I that is mind blowing to me because obviously, uh, you'd think ten years ago that would never even be a thought in the whole. I mean that Halloween's coming up and I haven't heard anything yet about medicaid, cannabis and candy, right,

I haven't heard anything here in Michigan. You will, I know, I know, but like that that always blows up around this time, right, But to see this just shows the progression kind of with cannabis a little bit here in the state of Michigan, because kids should be able to use it. I mean, if you don't remember or if you do know Charlotte's Web back in like twenty eleven, twenty twenty eleven, twenty ten. I think it was was that daughter that they created that CBD strain and then they

used it for her, which I actually, you have epilepsy. Maybe, I don't know. I know she had a lot of bunch of seizures, if I'm not mistaken. But they created the strange Charlotte's Web for her, which helped a lot of her ailments. And I believe send her life and I don't, I don't know. Can you check if she's still alive. I was gonna say something, I don't know. I don't know. I

don't know. Well, besides that point, it just shows that like kids have been using it for a while, and it shows that it does work right to be able to allow allow kindergartens through whatever you said, how old to be able to use cannabis within school as instead of pharmaceuticals if their family deems it or their doctors do. I think that's that's great. It's great progression for the industry here in Michigan. So I think she's still alive.

I wasn't for sure. It's kind of hard for me to tell. I'm like googling, but I'm not really sure how to find her specific Yeah, yeah, no, I I I don't see the issue. And especially when you read the laws, what they start talking about is the it was proposed law by the Michigan House, the reason being, uh so, you know, obviously for medical reasons, but my big thing is also CBD. So medical. But the like, what I thought was fascinating was only edibles,

beverages and low JAC. So they're still saying like, you can't be smoking on premises, they just eat their edibles just like any medicine, And like if that if that's the way to get people to look at it, like and notice that these kids are still fine, like cool, like you know what I mean, because that's how I mean, that's how it got into the most states too, was medical first, for people to open their minds

who didn't already understand kendamies. Now people like me and you are like, give kid a little bit of budge, right, or a little bit of edible two milligrams. You're like, oh, yeah, it's fine because you've done it. You understand it. You know, we're not. That doesn't scare us. You know what scares me is they're like, oh yeah, but load them full of thirty milligrams of adderall for the rest of his seven

years here in middle school and high school. But that's fine. They're on meth but like, yeah, weeds issue, you know what I'm saying. No, And then Charlotte she did pass was April seventh, and it was with the darvit syndrome, but she took the oil to prevent caesars, so it wasn't epilepsy's Darva syndrome. I don't know, not familiar with that, but that's what I'm saying. Like it's been going on in the sea Michigan. Opting in with this and allowing kids to do it. I think it

just makes sense. And we've seen we've heard about RSO helping with apsol epilepsy, you know, and other like issues. So it's like, I don't know how much those medicines cost, but if RSO is cheaper and more available, or that's what the parents believe, Like, isn't their choice to have holistic beliefs, like you're not. This isn't like I don't want to get shots for my kids, you know. This is literally just like I want

to have my kid to use more of a holistic treatment. So this isn't like they're like, if one kid eats a three milligram TC thing or CBD is not going to affect little Johnny next to them. You think about this, they're not blazing blunts and they're at lunch, I you know, on recess, Like YO, think this though Child Protective Services CPS. That means the parents that have kids, then you wouldn't get in trouble either because they're

they might have done this, or they might consume cannabis. So then your kids doing remember with all the stuff with kids, and then yeah, you're saying that, like now, they would probably dease off of that a little bit, right, I think I don't know. I don't have any kids. I don't know much about it. I think I'm just bringing it to my personal opinion. I honestly think people with kids have always want you to

know what their thought is about, like like that type of stuff. They're always like, oh, hey, this, like you shouldn't do this because of my kids. You know, they're always like worried about their kids, and like I get it, you know, I mean you should be worried about your kids, but like, no, no one's out to get your kid. No one gives a shit like no, like you know what I mean. I mean, maybe there are some weirdos out there, so that's

why you're overprotective. And I get it. That's what I'm saying. I totally understand why parents are that way, but some degree, it's like I've never liked those articles because I never think people are vindictively Aha, I'm giving out THC to kids, Like no, I know I'm saying I don't think people are like that. I can't go after parents then, is what I'm saying. I don't think they should be able to now correct because it doesn't make sense to now. It's like because it's just like if a kid got

into their Viking. I mean, unless like if a kid got into pills, it's the same treatment, that's what they do. Then I'm cool with it because that's that's how it should be. Whatever the treatment is for all the other legal medications, that's how sheep treatment go because because at the end of day, man, like I understand, shit happens, but like it's your kid, you should keep drugs away from you know what I mean.

It like overdosing is a real thing. Like even if it's THC and the five year old's used to eating a little two milligram three milligram edible and all of a sudden it eats like all of them, the child like, you know, it doesn't they don't know better. So but it's the same thing is being over prescribed like adderall and the kid becoming on adderall. You know, me friends I have that were prescribed adderall that then end up snorting adderall by the time they get to high school. Oh yeah, well, he

says, well, yeah, but that's what I'm talking about. Man. Well, yeah, I'm saying. I'm saying over those things accessible, I guess I'm you know, I mean, I'm reading. My point was like, it's not that big of a deal because if it's they're already prescribing it, or if it's medically used at home, what's the difference then, like you know, I mean the charge, there should be no difference. It's

just a holistic medicine. It's not your traditional pills, that's all. No. I just I think it's great progression for the state, you know, I think it's it's utterly beautiful because I feel like it would change because you can change the perspective of parents on cannabis. That is a huge demographic where a lot of people are fear for it, either because they didn't enjoy it or what scenes would have done to people. You know. But it's just

like any other like drug like alcohol. You shouldn't just like push it on them. It's like they're gonna do what. They're not gonna do it exactly. They'll make the choice. I think everyone usually tries it. No one in my family smokes cigarettes or weed. Guess what I smoked both. Like I'm just saying, like, sometimes it's just like your curiosities. There's nothing

a family can do. Sure, if the ones at home is drinking and it's like accessible at fourteen, sure maybe you might drink younger or samething with weed like I get it bar in the basement, Yes, I know, d Sorry. I think we tried to like fill it back up with water, like oh my god, I'm so stupid. This is so strong and we didn't know we were taking like shots of bokka. I wish I was there. I wish I was there to see the expression Yeah, sorry, she loves me, but nobody loves me. Oh man, I was I

went dark? I just like, oh man, I don't even. I don't know what. I'm just waiting. No, man, we all love you, man, we love you here, we love you drop a I love Canada in the chat. I don't know if this isn't a stream? What am I saying? I was just like dropping in stupid If you don't know, we stream on Saturdays, nine am every Saturday. Be There be Square, wake up and bake up with Candid. I don't know. I've always wondered, that's what. It almost sounds like the time of the air,

where you'd be like, be there. Sometimes hard for me to get these accents going, Be there be Square, you know what I mean. It's like the all the time the twenties accent. You sound like the guys from South Park, the Canadians. Oh man, that's not I was going, was like, it's almost like that, like you know, I don't know, Yeah, I don't know. I remember blanking on their name. What's like like the old twenties talk like hey, hey doing. I don't

know just when Sometimes my acts on point or not. My accents, my interpret like in interpretations, impersonation, in per se, sometimes they're on fire. And sometimes sometimes I can't even speak words Apparently this is garbage. Apparently I can't speak the words uh on an hour, you know whatever? Yeah, no, but yeah, all right, so yeah, we'll move on to the next article because obviously I am he's liberty. You can't even talk

right now. These dabs got his going, yes, yeah, So all right, here here's some news for people who know this name around Michigan. Sky Mint. Uh. I don't know. It says in battled cannabis Operations. Sky Mint acquired out of receivership. I don't know what the embattlement means, but as I know is like someone bought Skymit. That's how I got pretty much a direct I guess that's where we really deserve the wampom. The sales ordered October twelfth, and it's expected to close in the first quarter of

twenty twenty four. Sky Min's original scene You're secured loan from Tropics was worth seventy million when it was announced in September twenty twenty one. Yeah, so you know this this company that owns them, it's a They defaulted in March

on that first loan. And yeah, this is the one that I think was buying parts of them, right, and this Tropic company is owned by affiliate of Sunstream Band Corp. Which I don't know if you said that, I might have misheard, which is a joint of emiting joint venture involving Canadian cannabis company s n d L at Sandal. That is, assuming it's the stock. Yeah, yeah, SNDL. I mean that's got to be if

they're doing that CNDL. It's funny because those are some cannabis stocks that So it's interesting that Cannabis, a cannabis legal company is getting into the canvas industry here in Michigan ahead of time. I wonder what their brain is getting. I feel like they're I feel like they're getting ready for like everything to go legal so they can just trade weed among countries like no, like you know, this is the long game, getting into the I feel like that's genius

almost thinking about it, and maybe I'm actually I'm on. They make sixty eight million dollars with their twenty so what Tropics says they make an assumption of twenty one licenses with dispensaries that produce annual sales of sixty eight million dollars in September, So it's like they know what they're doing So the reason why Topics is doing is that been the largest creditor to to Skymen. They in this it includes the lease on twenty eight and two cultivation sites. That's what I

don't think. It doesn't make it So does that mean that makes it more fishy? Though for all the fact that they've been backing Skyman the whole time, I feel like they've been just trying to get in that. They defaulted on the loan though they think we talked about that. Yeah, yeah, they defaulted on the loan. That's what causes whole receivership. I believe I'm not mistaken because they're millions were missing, right, not missing, but uh,

they just weren't selling product. Any new bidder would have to top one hundred and nine point four million bid in Skymn's existing debt to Tropics, which alleges that green Pick green Pick Innovation and Innovations aka operates in Skyman generate one hundred and fifty three million dollars is less than what they forget. And this says Guy Mean's original secured loan from Traffics with seventy million when it was in

twenty point one. I don't know if you said I know you said about it, but this is seventy million, is what they originally Yeah, yeah, yeah, I missed. I didn't even realize it was crazy. Well and on the top of it, Jeff Radway was pretty much resigned from this post. So I'm curious where the company goes. I mean, they have such a bad name here in Michigan. Like, eventually I just see them leaving them. Yeah. Man, we've been talking since the industries, you

know what I mean. Oh yeah, yeah, you just they don't care. They're just trying to make as much money and then then they're just eventually going to leave, like he's so obviously they're going now twenty three stores, so I'm curious with what happened in the future. Obviously doesn't close the twenty twenty four, so we'll be talking about it. I don't expect much, honestly happened with them. So but yeah, yeah, yeah, yeahah, I think that's it. Oh. One thing I want to talk about real

quick. Oh I do have Well, we had the video we want to watch and on a little light note, that's because I thought we'd end on video video. Yeah, I was talking about the seeds. I want to talk about the seeds. What seeds the article I sent you? I know, Okay, so we don't know what anyone's talking about, so you go

first, I'll go after. Yeah. So as more states legalized cannabis, the market for seeds is in full bloom, right, So I think that's great as a grower or as that means people are buying cannabis seeds and cultivating at homes. That means it's gonna be more homegrown. Oh to me, that's just like so the article what did the articles say that there's a lot of seeds being sold? R Yeah, in Minnesota they were talking about. Oh okay, Washington. Okay, well it makes sense. I mean it

makes sense man, with all these things popping up in laws changing. Like I was actually looking at states because you were like, hey, we should go on a vacation for the podcast. It's me and you like, just literally do weekend to chill. I was like, all right, And I was looking yesterday at like what states are legal with cannabis. So I was like, you know, where's a warm legal state with cannabis? And I was warm, if you get cold, I'm going to Maine. No northern

until summer. No. Uh was going. Where are we going for vacation? No, no, no, So I was just looking and seeing how much is expanding. So it makes sense you're seeing seeds in all these states because between medical and legal it's half the nation plus. And this is good. And it's just because then you're seeing all Now you seeing on these breeders that have breeded for years, cultivators, right, they've been breeding these seeds. Now more people are being able to grow it. We're gonna find more

genetics. There's me more stuff that are popping out there. I just love seeing it because that means me and you mom. There anybody, friends, neighbors, grandpa's uncles can go out there, buy some cannabis seeds and grow weed. Like that's beautiful. Like I truly believe everyone should be able to grow weat. I don't even care if it's like only a couple plants. You should have the right to grow cannabis, obviously. I don't believe there

should be a limit. Okay, there should be a limit somewhat maybe on just flowering plants, clones and all that shit. It doesn't matter till it flowers, because that's when you get the fruit of the bud. Right, like that's what that's what the other companies would care about. In my opinion, you don't care someone's growing these small little clones. I think everyone should be able to grow the plant and be able to have the seeds beautiful. Yeah, yeah, no, no, I like it. I like it.

No, man, I appreciate it. No. I just was curious because to me, it's like, oh, so you've always been around. But like the fact that they're growing up and tails, that's a good thing to know, I mean to be honest, and that means like the genetics I have, eventually those might be gone. You might not be able to buy those no more of the seeds. Well that's the thing about genetics, and that's why tishi culture is so huge, because you can lose yea.

And this last one was just a quick thirty second video because a couple we talked to think about this. Yeah, oh yeah, I remember now the wedding they got married. A couple won a wedding from a dispo in wild

Lake called Greenhouse. If you're not familiar with them, something they did a while Yeah, they did a while ago, and they want a wedding, and I just thought it was kind of a cool way to end the episode, or just like a lightweight, because I feel like we were talking about a bunch of serious things, so just like a little lightweight to be like, oh eh, cat, make sure you're tuning in the Saturday to the Waken, make nine am Eastern beautiful and give us a review. And that's

Marry the love of his life for free. And it was a very green wedding. It was cannabis themed. Nile Hunt and Danielle Jerald A wall Blake won a forty thousand dollars ceremony and reception put on by Greenhouse, a dispensary. According to the company, Hunt suffers from a lifelong injury after being injured by an ied while serving in Afghanistan, and he uses cannabis to help with the pain. There were even cannabis chefs at the reception. That's super saying

ya whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa whoa. He just jumps right to the next article. So I'm on Jordan Paul's He was just starting to talk about some political crap. I was like, whoa, whoa I did I mean? It was like, oh, I hate drown bunnet for like, oh, god, hut it out. That's a good wow. That ended really fast. He was like, by a screen next article. I was like, dude, there was probably a longer video somewhere,

but that was a short CLiPPA. Well no, I was just thought they were being added between not just right to like usually geez, all right, right, good job, that's very cool. It's a cool thing to do. And like, I think we're gonna just start seeing stuff like that, like cannabis weddings, like themed weddings. Oh if I if I ever get I'm gonna have tomorrow weed away. We told you who my mom is. Like, if I ever get married, your mom knows. Oh yeah, anyways, man, that's all I got. I'm out. That's all

I got. I just thought that was like a little light article that was beautiful. Is good way to end it.

Give us a five star, honestly boosts us up and gets our gets our further in the algorithm.
