There are beautiful (and not so) dispenseries all around California where you can walk in (with your card / rec) and peruse a wide variety of high-quality, medicinal offerings ? row upon row of jars with sample buds in them. Sure, the price can be high (no pun intended), with 1/8s up to $55 ? but this is typically a lot better quality than the $200/oz you might get from a friend or out on the street...

While certain counties in CA may have their own restrictions, 6 flowering plants are allowed state-wide I'm told. There are cooperatives and the like that extend the number, but for the individual patient / grower, half-a-dozen budding plants are likely enough...

Boutiques will thrive, even in a land of Wal-marts...
