The dealers and illegal growers will be stumbling for a way to make thier product more addictive then the legally available stuff. Hence there will be no quality control, there will be drug mixings (Pot with PCP was a big one in my day), there will always be an illegal trade. But there will also be a huge increase in risk for the stores that want to carry the stuff as well.
Its just too profitable of a business for dealers and illegal growers to give up easily.

The same thing could be said about pretty much anything though, couldn't it?
If the manufacturers want to make a profit they'll have to supply a product that the consumer actually wants.
Yeah if they are churning out dirtweed then people will look elsewhere for sure, but why would they bother if they aren't going to make a decent product?
It's like someone starting a business that makes 5% whisky. What's the point? We know already they wouldn't make money.
