I think it's a massive perpetuation of the black market and not noticing the fact that lower quality product on the rec market is going to force people back to the black market.
Ever wondered what the future holds for cannabis? In this episode of 'Get in the Herd', host John Shinholser sits down with Parker Walton, the owner and operator of Cannacraft. Parker is not just a cannabis cultivator; he's an activist, educator, investor, and entrepreneur with a wealth of experience in the industry. Together, they dive into the complex world of cannabis regulations and discuss how these rules impact both consumers and business owners.
Parker shares his candid views on the bureaucracy that often hinders small operators trying to enter the market. He also sheds light on the rollout of cannabis in Virginia, emphasizing the need for a standardized system to ensure quality and safety. The conversation takes an interesting turn as they explore the differences between regular and feminized seeds and their cultivation processes.
Parker doesn't shy away from controversial topics, like whether cannabis acts as a stepping stone to other substances and how legalization could be perpetuating the black market. He argues that lower-quality products in the recreational market might push consumers back to unregulated sources. Throughout the episode, Parker emphasizes the importance of empowering small operators to foster a more inclusive and fair industry.
If you're curious about the ins and outs of cannabis cultivation, regulation, and its future, this episode is a must-listen.
