Heard on the street - anecdotal, at best.
Reports that marijuana grown in the US is now more popular in Mexico.
"A U.S. Drug Enforcement Administration official told NPR in December that Mexican cartel operatives were smuggling in high-end U.S. marijuana to sell to wealthy customers, though there's no sign so far of a massive southward trade. The DEA declined to comment further in response to a request from the AP."
