But what strain and quality is this? I am paying more than that for a single gram for the top shelf goods.

That price is most probably local Swazi variety. The bankies I get and which seem common here in Cape Town is half the size of a normal bankie. They still contain 10 grams just like the old days with the big bankies. The weed that sells per gram here comes in an even smaller bankie. You can't compare the quality and each one has it's uses.

Also I think if you are paying more than R150 per gram you are paying too much.

Ah ok then, sorry I live in a bubble and am a DIY fanatic.

#MeToo :)
I would love to never buy again, but I like the different varieties and cant smoke the same stuff for weeks on end.Growing is also limited to a few plants(for safety sake I stick to 5 plants per adult atm).Also i do enjoy indoor every now and then - If i had to grow my own indoor it would not last at all, so its better if I just stick to mids outdoor and purchase indoor occasionally :)

I guess it's just good old Swazi. Pretty top notch in my book. I don't know about all these fancy names. It's green. It's slightly moist and it has minimal seeds. It gets a like from me :)

I have 3 plants growing indoors in a tent, two aquaponics = on top of the Fishtank. I have not ventured outdoor yet as my knowledge is limited to the above. Outdoor is another kettle of fish

Why not just grow your own weed and make your own gummies and tinctures?

Nothing wrong with growing your own but I think a lot of people don't realize how much cannabis you need to make one batch of oil. It's cheaper to buy a kilo of cannabis than growing a kilo of cannabis.

I beg to differ, each of my plants is growing just over a kilo is 7 months from start to finish. I have a rotation of plants and also have just over a kilo is excess stock.

This is so true, there are simply too many strains I still want to try and I'm not going to grow every one. Looking at the dispensaries overseas they seem to stock over a hundred different strains at a slightly higher price than an old school dealer with a more limited supply.

Assuming the cannabis has 15% THC this would mean 40g cannabis has 6000mg THC or 300mg per cookie which is high but not crazy high. At 10% it is 200mg per cookie.

Yeah, I would go on 8-10% so 40g in 20 cookies is enough for most.
