RE:RE:RE:RE:RE:RE:Easy BuyIn terms of investment: one of the factors I look at is indeed uniformity. This will be used as a marketing point to drive sales and for consumer branding / retention, acceptance and legitimization with Doctors. Also for any future legalization purposes - once HC and the government is satisfied with their very stringent requirements.
As long as everyone remembers that Medical users are different from rec. users. It's not about getting high. Sometimes we don't even want a high. There are so many ailments that this plant helps with. So bad weed is out of the question for us. Especially if we have to go through all the processes to get product from a government approved LP. (Your story about the HAPPY strain made me smile :)
in re: to your Question:
You can only have one LP at a time, but patients can switch at any time to a different LP. Provided the patient gets another presciption from their doctor and goes through the application process with the new LP.

Now, I have to disagree that smokers will only want Bedrocans weed because there will be many strains available from even more producers that patients will become fond of. If we were all able to smoke the ditch weed and unreliable product before, I don't think the average consumer is going to care about the uniformity to the nth degree that Bedrocan professes to deliver. Its an upgrade, no matter who you get your smoke from now.
My understanding is patients have to remain with their chosen producer for one full year. Is that still true?
