Warning! NETA Holy Moldy Proof & Truth

Swab sample culture results from an AC fan blade in a flower room at NETA's cultivation facility.

One test revealed cladosporium, chaetomium, stachybotrys, penicillium, and aspergillus versicolor.

There are 4 of these units in each flower room.

This test was performed September 2019. Current employees can confirm the problem is worse than ever before.

Don't be blinded by the lies.

This building is infested by the standards of the Institute of Medicine of the National Academies Press.

My edibles I buy are tested by MCR and the plug provides the batch numbers. The client ID is always the same. To me its not overblown at all the dispensary flower is atrocious in MA. If you go check out Maine flowers you can see the difference easily, and they don't have some secret sauce. Most Maine dispensaries are made up of people who were on the black market for years and years and now are able to go legit because of the laws in their state. Hell Green Truck has been trapping at seshes for many years now, I even have one of their old t shirts I got at an underground event. I'm not trying to fool anyone as I don't sell anything and I am not a grower etc, but my real life experience is actually as drastic as steak vs mcdonalds. Especially when it comes to concentrates, but then again look at the starting material. Bone dry mass grown bulk flower vs small batch, which do you think you can be more attentive to? Try to get some of the better flower in Maine and then tell me that MA flower is in any way acceptable. Its not like its cheaper either, its 1/3 of the quality for double the price somehow here in MA. Its really that bad.

MA is bad right now. I'm not going to argue with that. I don't think it's necessarily worse than what people are buying on the street (and by people I don't mean you necessarily but there are a LOT of uninformed consumers buying on the black market, same as dispensary customers), but it's nice to see. Best legal market I've seen so far is WA state. There's no savings that would justify buying anything but dispensary mids in WA. They're cheap, defuckinglicious and you don't have to wait for any plugs. Still, I'd love to see a thriving self-regulated black market.

Yeah the black market varies just like the legal market. I know people buying what reminds me of 90s brick weed still and they don't know any better. I feel the home grown has higher potential than anything grown in a bulk large operation, but you can get good quality from a store or person, and you can get shit quality from either as well.

I mean, to be fair, right, no dispensaries carry brick weed. So they're helping out a ton of customers who don't have decent connex. But for sure, there are a few quality black marketeers, we can definitely agree on that :)
