you might have missed this: “The third quarter [Summer] will include Outdoor Light Dep crops, of course, and so we predict a steep production drop in the first quarter of 2015 followed by steady increase fortified by more producers coming on line.”

honestly I’m not convinced 90% of 502 producers can get a full term crop right, and most of them have just heard about light dep in the last year if not on this post. One of the top 7 producers in the state is scrambling to upgrade their greenhouses to do just that, and I would suggest that’s a pretty good indicator that light dep is going to take a year to become a big part of the harvest.

Five years ago in Norcal, light dep was just catching on and now even the reallly old timers are doing it.

I’ve been looking for experienced sun grown light deppers in the crowd, and you my cannaverde friend are uncommon at the moment. You’ll do well!

Prices are as opaque as the mylar side of 502 bud packaging, and the volatility comes with lack of information. We need a commodities exchange fix this, but in the mean time some fair-minded retailers are charging a fixed markup over wholesale, which prevents retail gouging. Also, we are beginning to be able to discriminate quality, meaning those prices charged just for being passed material just aren’t feasible.

you are correct Brett, I think was originally basing that on projected approvals and that was what remained of that effort, for now. Thank you and I will correct it now.
