Hi, so I've noticed over the last month or so that there are many strains available at other clinics/pharmacies that we haven't been able to gain access to at IPS.

There are lots of safricanna strains for instance at 5.50 a g that have been listed as available and have been reviewed by various people and the four strains at £4 a gram.

I've personally found the safricanna strains I've tried to get very good and reasonably priced and they haven't been made available to us at ips. I have questioned this and just been told they don't have stock of them but they have multiple ips strains(which were priced higher). I was even told at one point that the iOS strains are safricanna but just renamed. Which is not true and if it was then we would have been paying more for the same strains.

I've tried getting info as to why we can't have access to these strains and don't really seem to get an actual answer. Just told that IPS don't stock them and they have many IPS strains available that I don't want.

I think it's important for us all to have the ability to order strains we want that are available in the UK and I feel like we are being withheld from some lower priced strains in favour of other higher priced stuff that people arent wanting.

I have even asked how we would go about getting access to these strains through another pharmacy with ips and haven't had an answer to that.

I joined Integro and IPS and have been very happy up until recently but this is really starting to get frustrating seeing strains available in the UK and just told iOS don't stock them. Usually we can order strains in that aren't stocked by them, line lal the other Curaleaf strains while al the safricanna strains Curaleaf are importing we aren't allowed to order.

Lower priced strains seem to be few and far between ATM and yet I see loads of safricanna and other strains available at the 4-5.50 mark which we just aren't allowed to access.

In my opinion we really need to get a fairer system in place which lets us access the strains we want.

Does anyone else have any info on why we are being stopped from ordering strains we want. I've tried 4 safricanna strains while they were available ages ago and had good experience with them so I would really like to try their other strains and just have the option to try all of these new lower priced strains available to others but being withheld from Integro/iOS patients.

If it carries on I feel like Integro are going to lose a lot of patients to other cheaper clinics which seem to be able to offer all of these lower priced strains.
 
It's all commercial dodgyness as far as I know. Pharmacies stock what they get a good enough deal on, clinics scraping cash from pharmacy profit, you scratch my back I'll scratch yours type stuff

I started with a dodgy clinic and went to my current one (that I'm very happy with) partially because they let you order anything from anywhere - you pay a not insignificant monthly fee but it means the clinic is independent and unbiased
 
This is what gets me most is I've been a patient with Integro and IPS for almost 2 years and not once had an issue, always found them excellent and very helpful but things defo seem to have changed at least with ips over the last few months.

Usually we have been able to order pretty much everything even if it's not help in stock. They haven't commented on why we can't order certain flowers even though we can get other strains from that importer. There are so many lower priced strains that I would just like to try for myself as often more money doesn't mean better flower from my own personal experience and needs. I'm really not interested in trying all their Macedonia IPS strains that are often more expensive. The safricanna strains I've had in the past have been excellent for the price.

It's an issue when you are trying to request something and they just want to point you towards their own branded strains instead. The only safricanna we currently have available are the blunicorn or 15% BCP.
 
This may be informative as to why your seeing changes (y)
 
It's just pretty frustrating when most of the strains that were worth having from grow were safricanna at a lower price point and they seem to be going through Curaleaf now. Maybe if grow wish IPS every success for the future, they could do a solid and let IPS patients have the reasonably priced safricanna strains to at least he ordered in.

Hopefully it's just a case of them getting things set up but I've seen strains available for over a month or 2 that are going elsewhere but not available at IPS. Pretty disappointing.

Completely understand your frustration and hopefully as things settle these products become available to you one way or another and they are just starting to appear elsewhere in the last week like CB1 Medical but have been on Specials formulary for a bit so hopefully common sense reigns and availability can be expanded as I know from experience of the SafriCanna stuff that they have good usable products .
 
Pleased that Curaleaf have responded to my requests of stocking more affordable products and Safricanna.
I noticed the £5.95 strains appearing but will they also get stocking the various £5.50 strains also? Also it would be great if it was made clear that they were safricanna because the info on here for their Mac and banjo wasn't described as safricanna in any way while all the Curaleaf ones show as safricanna on here.

IPS Mac wasn't listed as safricanna but it is for Curaleaf etc.

We trust that more affordable strains will become available to all regardless of clinic.

It's a shame Integro seem to be at the bottom of the list considering how many of their patients helped both Integro and Grow expand as companies.. would have been nice for Grow Group and Integro to do a solid and thank us by providing the cheaper strains that have been available over the last few months.

Apologies @CptRedeye and thank you for the way you handled this unfortunate situation 🙏
Thanks for the way you dealt with the issue. I appreciate all the staff at MedBud.

I was only saying the other day to a friend how I much prefer chatting here than elsewhere I've chatted as it's a much friendlier and more understanding community. I understand that unfortunately occasionally you get people trying to get a reaction everywhere and very happy with the way this has been handled.

Again thanks to all the staff at MedBud for all the outstanding work you do to help us all. 💚
