The Federal threat is still looming, and the countdown is close.
Federal authorities stated on Oct 6th that Cali Dispensaries have 45 days until they come in and close shops themselves and take away property from Dispensaty landlords.
The 45 days are up one week from today.
What will happen? Anyones guess.
Over the last month, I have seen a HUGE reduction in dispensaries, as many have shut down completley on thier own. My friends growstore has seen a big drop in sales, as growers are also scared and running for cover. Conversations with others involved in the industry all lead to folks jumping out of the biz. Very interesting to say the least.
Myself, I am not too worried, as I stay below federal radar with plant counts and other sorted affairs. Low Key.....is the Key.
Harborside has me worried. I am scheduled to go in next monday, the first monday after the 45 day "warning". Will they be open? Will I be walking into a trap? Are they hiding in the trees gathering info? We will see.
I'm a gambler, to say the least. Another roll of the dice for me.
Of all the dispensaries in Cali, I would think that Harborside would be the last one they would want to harrass, but then again, they could be the example.
So tough to call, actually impossible.
I think about the model they represent in the Dispensary industry, and they are the one to follow. They are well beyond the 1000ft radius of schools the feds say they are tageting, actually closer to a mile, as they sit right on the water "Hence the name Harborside".
But I also think about "Weed Wars" and thier new show on Discovery Channel which starts Dec1st. Have they gone too far? Is the show going to be thier demise? I was excited about being asked to participate with the show, but I am glad I turned it down. I would be freaking out right now, and I'm not a paranoid person.
