The Cannabis supply here in Edmonton is competing with demand. Most pot stores are running out of supply. So what's the Alberta Government going to do, obtain weed from the black market? 👀 It takes time to grow Cannabis. This is of course just "about," but it takes a lot of electricity and water to grow a Cannabis plant. It can take anywhere from 2-4 months to grow a Cannabis plant indoors. One plant could produce about 38 grams of smokable weed. Or 2-3 joints/3 grams of weed. So about 40 joints from one plant. Conditions vary of course. Not that I smoke weed I don't, but its interesting to see how the Alberta Government is going to handle this. In a related story on the news last night farmers in the Delta region of the lower mainland in BC said they might be re allocating some land to grow Cannabis because its a more lucrative crop then vegetables. A move like that could set a dangerous precedent because of less food grown. Importing food from other countries only increases the cost of that food. I can see a Cannabis type skyscraper where plants are gown per floor. A producer could have say a 40 floor Cannabis tower. Each floor might produce maybe 100 plants but the cost in electricity and water alone would be huge. Solar power on the roof and sides of the building might help reduce costs. Its an interesting story.
I've got a short shift tomorrow and possibly Tuesday. Tuesday would depend where we are in the project Monday. I'm hoping beyond Monday I have this week off and into next week. It's not good for hours on the cheque but we're resigned to a limited week anyway. If we get the green light to go ahead on this next project, I could have 2 good cheques to close out the end of the year as we usually break for middle of December for Christmas. Anyway, that's all for now.
