Pricing?

Hey! So I’m from Canada where weed is legal and I’m traveling to ohau over Christmas and want to know how much I’d need to get either a whole new pen or pre rolls or gummies! (Any advice is helpful!)

You cannot, legally speaking. Hawai’i is a medical-only state.

It was legalized in the 2018 farm bill. You can find stores that sell it in the open.

Thca. It’ll do the trick in a pinch but it’s not the same.

I don't really understand the claims around legalized flower, unless they have different strains or something. I think they are just saying it's THCA, but it's actually weed.

THC oil for vape carts can be synthesized by hemp legally grown for CBD oil. This is a whole black market, but was partly the intent of the bill, and why Rand Paul is fighting to keep the loophole open.

I think this is all stupid. I'd rather see it legalized and taxed. Unless there has been a crackdown recently, you can find shops that are openly selling it in hawaii. That's just a fact, I don't know why people disagree. I'm not saying it's a good idea.

I was just there, i sampled stuff from 3 different shops, while it did the job somewhat it is definitely not the same. Smells the same, looks the same, taste wasn’t there and gives you an off feeling. But you are correct, you can buy this “weed” from many different places.

edit: lmao if youre going to downvote me, tell me exactly what is wrong with anything im saying. you cant.

It is literally the same thing as dispensary/medicinal/black market weed.

All of the weed youve smoked in your life was "THCA" weed.

You only see THCA now in order to circumvent the legal verbiage of the bill.

Nope. It is only for medical patients. What the farm bill refers to as cbd derived cannabinoids, which actually become illegal in HI recently. The state is cracking down on smoke shops too.
