Why are concentrates getting cheaper but flower isn’t?

live resin rosin even diamonds keep getting cheaper compared to a few years back but flower prices barely move. extraction makes use of trim and lower grade material so producers can flood the market faster with concentrates. top shelf flower still needs space time and careful labor to grow right and it gets taxed more heavily by weight. on we know flower i kept seeing how concentrate prices swing with harvest cycles while flower stays steadier since the best batches are limited no matter the season. it also makes sense when you talk to growers who say flower is the 'showroom' product while extracts are a way to move bulk biomass that would otherwise sit. the two markets run on different pressures which is why pricing trends don’t match up even though it’s all coming from the same plant.
