After a slight uptick in March, the medical marijuana market continued its slow-moving free-fall and has dropped to one-quarter of the size of the adult-use market three years after recreational sales began.

Fair point. But I also know a few of examples to the contrary. My sister and my father both had medical cards. They’ve stopped renewing them, because for them the recreational side is sufficient. It’s just less stress. Although I’m very much not sure about the prices. It seems like they are making short-term decision on the expensive paperwork and in so doing paying a lot more long-term in excise taxes.
I don’t even have a medical card. But I am just incredibly tired of ever increasing THC percentages in the products. I need a substantial amount of CBD in the product to not be stuck in a mind-racing, anxious hell. So a majority of the recreational market just does NOT appeal to me.
I lived in Portland, Oregon for about 7 years after they legalized. Their market was so different. I could find almost any combination of cannabinoids that I would want. Even on the recreational side. I wonder if it has anything to do with the markets maturity in a given state? Perhaps people trend away from high THC strains after a few years?
