People assume that to maintain a habit, you must break the bank. When you take on marijuana, some people around you may start to expect your financial plunge. But you do not need too much money to buy marijuana. You must not limit yourself to marijuana of the lowest quality marijuana either. There is an unusual match in the cannabis world, where some good quality cannabis strains go for low prices. Opt for these.
Factors Influencing Marijuana Prices
The price of marijuana depends on several factors. They are:
Taxation: Like alcohol, marijuana is taxed. Sellers tend to pass on the taxation costs to the customers. Taxation affects the prices of imported weed. So, when shopping for marijuana, conduct research to identify imported strains and possibly stay away from them.
Quality: Economics dictates that high-quality marijuana be sold at the highest prices. Strains with high CBD or THC concentration are sold at high prices. The same happens for strains with a high concentration of terpenes. Aesthetically pleasing strains also demand a high price.
Location: The location of the cannabis dispensary affects taxation and the supply or demand for cannabis. The demand for weed is higher in some parts of the country and low in others. The financial ability of consumers in a particular location also affects weed pricing. If there is only one store in a large city, the weed prices are high. If there are many dispensaries, the demand is low, and the prices are low.
Other factors that determine the price of weed include politics and environmental factors like droughts and wildfires.
Here are 10 marijuana strains that have are cheap but of good quality.
1. White Widow
This is one of the popular marijuana strains, which makes it a wonder that its price is low. White Widow is a balanced marijuana hybrid. It was created from the crossing of a South Indian indica and a Brazilian sativa landrace. Its flower buds are white with a crystal resin, perhaps warning of the hit that is about to come. On average, White Widow has a 20 percent THC concentration. But some phenotypes may exceed this concentration.
White Widow buds have chunky and somewhat tapered buds. The structure of its buds leans more towards sativa than indica. They have a fluffy and loose texture that you can break easily despite the thickness. White Widow flower leaves are spring green, and its pistils are few but visible. The flowers are also surrounded by long-stalked trichomes, giving White Widow its whitish-gray appearance.
White Widow has a stinging ammonia scent with some earthy pine hints. When combusted, White Widow produces a pungent smell. If you plan on smoking White Widow, do it privately to avoid making others uncomfortable. Expect to feel a happy, euphoric, relaxed, creative, and uplifting mood.
