It’s finally the end of one of the hottest summers on record.
In August we saw temperatures rise to over 115 degrees in the pacific northwest, a region where several don’t even own a/cs.
My area was hit hard as well, however thankfully we get a lot of wind that makes 100 degrees feel slightly less intense. It’s difficult when you have a lot of allergies because the heat combined with the Summer rain contributes to mold growth in the environment. We also get a lot of dust from the plains further north in the state, as the particles get caught in wind currents taking them hundreds of miles south. But there’s another reason I’m enthusiastic to be heading into the Fall season. This is the time when all of the marijuana dispensaries with outdoor groweries are harvesting their crops. In fact, some cannabis users have nicknamed this time each year as “Croptober” and it’s applicable anywhere weed is being grown outdoors. What this translates into are endless sales at every dispensary so they can clear out old products from the shelves so there’s room for batches from the new harvest. On top of that, we are coming to the end of the third quarter and these companies need to boost their sales for their stockholders and investors. While I may not like their intentions, I like the lower prices on cannabis products either way. I just desperately hope that the cannabis dispensaries stick to competitive pricing for the long term. Both of us were getting hit with highway robbery too long, especially from two weed stores in particular.
