After executing a search warrant on a warehouse, authorities seized just over two tons of marijuana in 192 packages in Ejido San Lorenzo of Cadereyta, Nuevo Leon state, according to a press release from Attorney Generals Office (FGR). The statement was posted on August 30, but did not specify when the seizure occurred.
In addition to the 4,035 pounds of marijuana, two vehicles were also seized. No arrests were made. The operation was carried out by the FGR, with assistance from investigative police (AIC), SEDENA, National Guard, and local municipal police.

ReplyDeleteThey want their weed back
Does it make sense to send that weed to the usa.
Or is the weed a sacrificial shipment?
I cant imagine its worth much in Texas
DeleteVintage weed is going for higher prices. On a serious joke, this weed is used to make dabs?
Delete1,000 lbs of seeds & stems lol
DeleteThis is weird. I was under the impression that bulk weed wasn't even trafficked anymore. Thoughts anyone?
ReplyDeleteMy guess is that this was a supply for the Monterey market. Alternatively, the amount tells me it is too big for consumption there unless its a regional supply. That far north and in a warehouse can be a sign of export. Mexico has good mid grade strains. They look like high mid grade Californian marijuana or sometimes better. Some is still shipped to the United States. Commercial grade weed that sold before is not feasible anymore but there is still business
DeleteNo way Mexico bud even comes close to California tree
DeleteIt makes sense that its trafficking would go down but not completely. Obviously it’s not gonna totally go away.

DeleteTrue. Even 10 years ago people talked about how Mexican brick weed is not what it ‘once was’. In other words it’s still bad, but not that bad. Not like compared to the 80s and 90s. I did see some in the early 2010s though that was just like straight classic brown dirt weed but only one time.
I know a family over in California from Oaxaca whose son bought a bunch of shitty weed because they wanted to make ointment out of it for pain or something.
5:06 There is very much a way. It is on par with Greenhouse Californian marijuana. It had great trichomes, deep purple hues, and a fine trim. Mexican hands have always grown good weed. Not everything there is the old commercial brick quality that U.S. competitors sabotaged it as. Remember California has many Mexican growers too. They have been doing it since the 1800s. Before the hippies and hillbillies of Northern California. It's just the standard that changed. Technology shifted it
Delete6:32 I remember that. It was still seen here and there. The Colorado legalization in 2012 was the final blow. I can't speak for the 80's and 90's. I would like to know more about that. I know the 00s was flooded with Mexican brick weed. Not all of it had seeds. I would think that smuggling it was what sometimes damaged the quality because of the obvious crushing and delays, making it dry.
DeleteThat's interesting he would go that far for that. Some people just want a reasonable effect. It's said Oaxaca has a great strain. Michoacán does too, a Sativa called Verde Limon. A very nice light green hue on it
It was probably being sold to towns not far from that area. Mexican weed is still being sold to its citizens. May not be as profitable as it once was but still a good market for it in Ol'e Mexico.
ReplyDeleteA lot of this weed is actually for Mexican Consumption. In sinaloa a lot of them foos are sending it to DF and toluca and places like those for the market down there.
ReplyDeleteYou can get Sinaloa indoor now
DeleteWeeeed??? Really? Se mamaron... this is 2022 no mms!
ReplyDelete2022 and weed is legal in Mexico! Yes, it’s true there aren’t dispensary yet but they have frameworks and licensing started for medical recreational and cañamo …. & we’ve been able to grow plants for personal use for more than a decade with an AMPARO
ReplyDeleteLegal import/export with other Internationally permitted countries is also allowed: ie Canada Israel Colombia Uruguay
