    Default Will Brexit effect cannabis prices on the street?

    Was speaking to a couple friends today about this topic. Will leaving the EU affect the prices of weed on the streets? Since border control will get tighter and a lot of cannabis is imported from countries like Holland and Spain how will it affect the average joe? There's a lot of people out there who don't grow or have friends like we do but still smoke regularly and have to go to there scummy street dealers...will greedy dealers and growers alike be taking advantage of leaving the EU and spike prices up when a drought hits soon? Not everyone is a friendly farmer! What are you thoughts on this?

    The street prices will get higher, the UK growers will up their prices due to the higher demand that the lack of supply will bring.

    The UK is a net exporter of cannabis... if border controls became tighter then they would sell it in this country instead, so no change IMO

    I for one am glad I won't have to pay the increased price of £21.37 for a score bag it all depends if dealers discuss trade deals quicker than the government

    That's the way I see it too. More is grown here now than imported weed.

    Also, who cares if the street prices go up. This is why we grow, so we don't have to deal with such people.

    to me it all comes down to the companies selling products with a couple of notes on top because the word "hydro" been used, that gets past on to the dealers then on to the buyers it's all greed imo. As prices are at £200 oz or worse the dreaded £10 per a gram. Just from setting up a percy we can see the costs. I still think it need's regulating and taxing thou.

    I think there is still a big market out there of people who enjoy smoking foreign herbs and always try to get the best buds out there according to them I mean I have seen a lot of youngsters spending up to £50 a gram!! On weed from California which is another heated topic ahem! 🙈 the likes of Gelato and sunset sherbet even though I smoke homegrown that has never failed to put me on my ass...😁👍🏽 it doesn't really bother me as growing it is the best method by far but from the average joes view hmmm I didn't know we export that much! Sweet!

    It's going to affect prices on everything, Nevermind cannabis. The pound dropped to it's lowest level in 30 years over night with an out vote.
