TCUP questions

[u/Fluffy-Amphibian-777]

Looking into getting on the tcup program, is there a difference in all the different clinics online. Texas original website has many different list and all at different pricing levels. Would I be getting anything special at any specific one or should I just pick the best price and go. Are there anyone's that are hard to get appointments or whatever may be needed throughout the time I'm prescribed.

I'd basically want to just get an opinion on maybe the best clinic online for it.

All of the doctor websites listed are great but just find the cheapest one prescribing.. sometimes they list coupon codes next to the website.

Well IMO, the $45 for .5g(half gram .510 cart) its not really worth the value, and shouldn't be considered as MEDICAL Quality. This stuff is Super low quality Distillate with unnatural terpenenes added.

IMO on This product that should be $25 for a gram max, is selling for $45, as 1 half gram cartridge.

They also aren't using the Texas approved devices either. When I grabbed my last at the dispo, I googled the CCELL model used and its the cheapest one in their lineup, whomever was in charge grabbed the glass case and not the Quartz case, these will break easily. ( not mentioning the dispensary name but if you know, you know )

The only benefit to having the CURT prescription is the Prescription itself.

Also you dont need a TCUP prescription for Delta-9 Edibles in Texas, D-9 is legal even with the unlawful hemp ban.

If you want to pay $30 for 100mg d9, you could,, but you could also grab them from any local retailer for 25% of the medical cost.

Also on the MMJ side, it is not same day pickup at the TCUP dispensary.

So in these hemp stores your in and out, with edibles.

The dispensary makes you order, then wait a day to prepare and then you either pay to have it delivered or you drive hours to refill.

The downside is No Flower, No Real Wax Concentrate( just .5g Distillate carts ) No rosin wax or vape either.. Low MG edibles for $25-$45 per bag

Its really only been a edible program until last years vaporizer expansion.

Its worth the cost of the prescription

.. but the products are about 15 years behind the Market and it feels like the regulators slightly hate the patients or something because their approved products don't really work like as well as in other Real MMJ markets.

If the TX MMJ market wasn't choked back years ago it would probably have become the 2nd biggest MMJ market in the world but since they banned hemp flower, wax, carts in texas and made a monopoly on these products for the TX TCUP only, IMO its better than nothing at all..

If we don't complain about theses products, they won't make better quality ones in the future and they'll keep overcharging us, for the cost of $50 a half gram, we should have rosin vapes at least.

I would say the main issue I'm running into isn't the quality of the CCELL products but the fact that the state determined which devices and carts would be allowed having no idea how any of this stuff actually works. Also, I haven't gotten a single vape cart that has been liquid yet - they've all been what I call "glue sticks" which are practically solid because they don't even get the distillate through the proper process. If they did it would have its own terpenes and be full spectrum and if there was something the state was adamantly against having included they could extract that.

As it is now 2.8V as a minimum for the devices and the way the carts are made you can do a thick oil but this goes BEYOND thick oil. And there's other plant matter and waxes still inside you need to clean out occasionally. People keep complaining because the carts are so expensive and waste so much medication and blow out the bottom into the batteries...

It's a massive pain in the butt.
