The street prices of Marijuana are still better than retail prices. To completely dominate this market, the price per gram of high THC content marijuana needs to go under $10. The walmart of weed is going to trample anybody who can’t compete with that, and right now that’s everybody.

Not sure that's true. I and many others are willing to pay a premium to know the exact numbers on cannabanoids and whether or not there are pesticide residues. Also we care about quality. The Walmart of weed would do fine but not be the thing for everyone.

Isn’t the lack of a “nutritional label” for weed a product of century long prohibition? The very thing you spend the premium for I see being commonplace post-federal legalization.

I think not before long, minimal packaging gas station reggie will be a thing of the past and picking out quality weed will be like choosing your favorite wine at the grocery store.
