As a worker in the MMJ industry in Colorado, I can confirm that this is true. It's already happening.
I manage a dispensary, and every day more people come in looking for CBD products. Also, every time we get CBD stuff from a new supplier, the price has gone up. For example, a 100 mg edible that is only THC will cost $20. If you add equal parts of CBD to the same edible, It can be up to $40.
It's a little discouraging that CBD automatically gets a higher price tag. It's working on real problems for people, so they're willing to pay more.
I'm interested to see where the value of CBD goes in the long run. It really is a miracle medicine.
Thanks for a great post!
