So the Oregon recreational marijuana program emphasized farm-to-laboratory-to-outlet tracking (nominally to prevent diversion, really to keep industry buildout in-state, effect is market was hived off), then mandatory labeling for THC content (which is the only clear indicator with on-site or on- duty sampling prohibited and grower volume limits means strains are always changing) and original per-day weight purchase limits. Meanwhile the rise of extracts (vape, wax, shatter, edible butter) means there’s less pressure towards smokability

Result is crumbly, dry-ass flower that leaves kief all over the inside of the container and practically needs remedial humidation from the second it’s open
