This week, we’re breaking down the true cost of cannabis—from the price per ounce to the price of setting up your own grow. Whether you’re shopping at a dispensary, dealing with your plug, or thinking about opening a grow op, the numbers might shock you. We compare cannabis pricing across the U.S., discuss the impact of oversupply, dive into operating costs, and challenge whether lower prices really mean better value. Spoiler: that $600 pound might not be the deal you think it is.

🔍 Key Topics Covered:

• Dispensary vs Plug: cost, quality, and consistency

• Wild price drops in states like California and Michigan

• Why East Coast markets are still paying $300+ per ounce

• Dragonfly as a case study: pricing, transparency, and trust

• Breakdown of commercial grow costs—from 500 sq ft ops to home grows

• Cannabis extraction: equipment costs, product types, and market demand

• Black/gray markets: oversupply and interstate effects

• Waste in dispensaries and how some states give back to vets

• Regulatory impacts on pricing, especially in Utah

• Why “cheaper” weed might cost you more in the long run

• The case for cannabis brands and product consistency

• MSOs vs craft grows: scale, quality control, and consumer choice

• Why educating consumers could shift the entire market

💬 Favorite Quotes:

🌱 Takeaway:

Understanding cannabis pricing means looking beyond the price tag. True cost includes grow operations, extraction, state regulation, and even consumer education. Sometimes you really do get what you pay for—and that cheap ounce might be a hamster-powered engine.

“That ounce you paid $100 for might drive like a ’65 pickup with a torn speaker—sounds cool but barely gets you there.”“You’re not buying potato chips. You’re buying a cannabis experience.”“Would you rather smoke an ounce of gas station boof or take one puff of Lamborghini weed?”

You ever wonder who first looked at a sticky lump of trichomes and thought, “Yeah, I’m gonna smoke that”? Same. On this 7/10 special, we’re getting our fingers dirty — diving into the origins of hash, how concentrates evolved, and why the modern dab scene is lightyears from hot knives on a stovetop.

• Why “live” is the new gold standard

Tropical Runtz: Sweet, Sticky, and Just a Little Unpredictable

This week on The Sesh, we cracked open a fresh jar of Tropical Runtz — a sticky indoor-grown hybrid that’s basically a fruity love child of Runts and Tropical Truffle. If that sounds delicious, it is. If it sounds like it hits hard, well… clear your afternoon.

We didn’t stop at flower. We gave it a proper test drive in the Verb dry herb vaporizer by Riot — shoutout to Riot and Santa Cruz Shredder for keeping our gear game strong. Smooth grinders, slick rolling trays, and joint tubes you’ll actually want to show off? Yes please.

Flavor & Smell:

Think sweet citrus, dried fruit, and a deep, aromatic swirl that sits somewhere between tropical punch and fancy incense. Not skunky, not earthy — just bright, sticky, and surprisingly smooth.

Terpenes:

• Myrcene: sets the mellow baseline

• Limonene: lifts you up with zesty citrus vibes

• Linalool: sneaks in a floral calm

How It Hits:

The head high shows up early — you’ll feel it tickle your forehead before sliding into a clear, talkative buzz. Expect random giggles, deep thoughts, and maybe a sudden interest in reorganizing your living room. Pro tip: hydrate before you hit it — trust us.

The Gear:

We tested the Verb by Riot and put it through its paces. Sleek rubberized body, wide bowl, and smart airflow design. A couple hiccups with missing filters (oops), but once dialed in, it hits like a dream. If you’re hunting a pocket-friendly dry herb vape, give it a look.

Final Word:

Tropical Runtz is one of those strains that’s equally chill and lively — fruity enough for flavor chasers, potent enough for seasoned stoners. Whether you roll it, vape it, or spark it up the old-school way, you’re in for a bright, sticky ride.

Light it. Vape it. Let it take you somewhere tropical — no passport required.

Ever feel like you’re never doing enough? Like no matter how hard you push, it’s still not quite right? In this raw, unfiltered episode of The Sesh, Brandon and Jesse open up about mental health, identity, and the pressure to “be a man” in a world where value is measured in dollars and hustle.

From therapy trauma to motorcycle zen, from fear of failure to full-send purpose, this one’s not just another feel-good chat — it’s a reality check wrapped in laughs, weed, and real talk.

In this episode:

• Why survival mode can be the most peaceful state of mind

• The fear behind not going all in

• Unpacking conditional love and self-worth

• Masculinity, body image, and the unspoken pressure men face

• TRT, gym culture, and doing “slightly gay shit” for male approval

• Why your worth isn’t tied to a paycheck

Vibe check: vulnerable, hilarious, and uncomfortably relatable

This one got hot. Literally. We sat down with Narith from Dragonfly Wellness to talk all things 710 — the unofficial concentrate holiday that turned official real fast.

From $1 concentrate deals to what makes Utah’s cannabis scene actually unique, this episode brings the heat. We covered why Dragonfly is offering $1 dabs with a Puffco Pivot purchase for 7/10, and the moment Jesse flew a little too close to the rosin sun.

🔥 What we got into:

• Why 710 isn’t just a number — it’s a full-blown culture

• The Puffco Pivot: how it works, why it hits right, and how to get one

• Dragonfly Wellness’ killer deal: buy a Pivot, get a $1 concentrate

• That time Jesse greened out mid-episode (yes, it’s in here)

• The shift in Utah’s access, laws, and why Narith believes education is everything

Whether you’re a seasoned extractor or just wondering what 710 even is, this one’s got the laughs, the lessons, and a little too much live rosin.

Everyone’s heard it: “Weed was way weaker in the ‘70s.” But is that true — or just more media smoke? In this episode, we dig into the myth, the measurement methods, and the mistakes that have fueled decades of confusion around THC potency.

Brandon and Jesse break down:

• Why today’s flower isn’t always “stronger”

• How old testing methods (like gas chromatography) skewed historical data

• The science behind why your dad’s mellow joint isn’t a myth — just misunderstood

• What high THC actually means for your body and mind

• The entourage effect and why you might want less THC, not more

⚠️ Disclaimer: We reference some commonly quoted historical THC data that’s now known to be inaccurate. Much of that old info came from degraded samples, poor storage, or outdated testing tech.

Ever wonder if you might be a little too into your weed? This week, Jesse and Brandon take a chill, honest look at Cannabis Use Disorder (CUD) — what it is, how to recognize it, and how to find more balance with your bud.

We break down the signs like:

• When “the munchies” turn into a full rotisserie chicken at 2 a.m.

• Bloodshot eyes and regrets

• Needing weed just to feel normal (aka, not the vibe)

We also chat:

• What the DSM-5 says about CUD (spoiler: it’s a real thing, but not everyone who smokes has it)

• Why cannabis affects self-control, eating, and sleep differently in everyone

• Tips from experts (like Tim Pickett) to reduce dependency — including drinking ice water, choosing healthy snacks like Cosmic Crisp apples 🍎, and listening to your body more

This isn’t a “weed is bad” talk — it’s more of a let’s keep it real kind of sesh. Whether you’re a daily toker or a weekend warrior, this episode gives you tools to check in with yourself without the guilt trip.

🧠 Key Takeaways:

• Cannabis Use Disorder is real, but nuanced. Not all daily users have it — but if cannabis controls you more than you control it, it might be time to reassess.

• Physical signs like bloodshot eyes, fatigue, irritability, or constant munchies can indicate dependency.

• Mental signs like needing it to relax, cope, or sleep every day are red flags.

• Small changes like drinking ice water or setting intentional limits can help you rebalance your relationship with weed.

💚 Cannabis School’s Advice:

No judgment, just curiosity. Use this episode as a gut check. We love weed — but we love feeling good even more. And sometimes that means taking a step back, even just for a few days.

• 🫧 Gush over airflow control, magnetic bases, and glass you probably won’t break this time.

• 🔍 Connect the dots between minority report vibes, VR startups, and why Oculus’ creator decided building military exoskeletons was the next logical step.

Dabs of choice:

Super Lemon G cured resin batter — courtesy of Dragonfly.
