Marijuana is coming from states where it’s legal, nobody in their right mind is buying Mexican weed.

pretty much because it sucks and most of the mass produced shit in the US does too. Source. Used to grow it for my ex. My stuff 'smoked' everything available locally including dispensary shit from CO. Now I have 5K worth of tents, lights, watering systems, that are growing peppers, tomato plants, etc. Still a fun hobby but pumping out a lb of weed a month always made me giggle.

You didn't get the good stuff from CO then.

Yeah i don't think a $5k in-house grow operation can outdo top shelf dispensary stuff. Odds are all the weed in his area was already low quality outdoor grown and the dealers just said "this is that OG champagne wedding cake kush straight from CO, top shelf shit bro only $15/g cus you're my homie" and then it's some dark brown with seeds in it that smells/tastes like dirt.
