I doubt they have enough legal, NY grown bud to do that.

Eh, there’s some massive grow operations in the works. Like the one being built in Buffalo

You can also home grow.

Nothing says “social and economic equity” like a 1.375 million sq. ft. grow op ran by a white Italian son of a real estate developer and US and Canadian agricorps. Great job, NY!

“Encinitas, Calif.-based Zephyr will build and equip the cannabis cultivation and manufacturing project but will then sublease the entire space to Toronto-based RIV Capital and its subsidiary, Etain LLC, according to an application submitted by Zephyr to the ECIDA. RIV Capital is nearly half owned by a subsidiary of Scotts Miracle-Gro.”

Technically, you can’t currently grow at home unless you have a medical card. Rec users have to wait 18 months after the first dispensary opens (so starting yesterday). Not that that stops anyone, lol.

Sure, and yeah police aren’t going to be busting down the door for growing a few plants when it’s going to be legal in just over a year anyways.

Does the legal shop only sell legally grown? In my country the selling in a shop is legal but growing (more than 5 plants) isn't. The supply chain to the shop is not legal but sort of decriminilized.
