Former caregiver here but I still give to people that need it and can't afford it. I'm down to very small grows and it costs more than that for me to grow. You are a kind soul.
How much for a pound near you?

Its hard to break people from the store, like gambling, all the lights and fancy packedging thinking youre getting the best. You often are too.
Home grown quality is different but can be better. Hash is profitable still I think considering its about 10$ a gram. Mine are 2.5$.
Last time I saw an oz for $30 it was outdoor and not often but there. So I based it off that but the fact I just found them for 25$ at any given time and more than 1..
Im thinking 15$ an oz aint that great like I intended. Hell might do 5-10$ and at that I may as well just be nice and not charge anything unless they want a lot.
I didnt intend to make money anyway. Nor grow for a bunch of people, Id be happy with 3. Just caring for plants for others sounds sweet. Maybe teach someone how I got my skills and grow their own.

At first I got ahead of myself a bit, math is shotty and thought Id use for free. How many grows for me vs my people it would take for that to happen idk.
I feel like if I ran it up for a year because I found a couple more and heavier users at that.. I think if I did 160 a pound and had 8 of them.. Id dab for free and make 300$ almost.
Welp thats post legal dealing for ya lol. Im up for it. Something about weed gets me off my ass and make shit happen even if it seems pointless.
Before legal I did some crazy shit as a youngen to get high one more time. I had THOSE issues. Still do!

A heavy user or even moderate can smoke a pound in 6 months. Id need 4 of those users. Not hard to do, clearly better illegal ways to make money but if you really are about that weed life its possible.

Apparently in IL the current legal market price is $2200 the black market price is highly dependant on the quality now you can find ditch weed for 60 bucks an Oz and amazing stuff for 100s

Im high as shit I didnt consider the cost to make the flower for the patients too but I already knew it wasnt good. 2.5 ibs 4x a year Id make 600 which pays for like 2.5 runs so I wouldnt even dab for free.
I got to think those were dispo prices before tax which is double its high but at those prices they dont impact as much.
Idk why growing is addicting but I guess serving is too. I already got my person to agree to 15$ an oz but honestly Im thinking of giving them 3oz for free.
I just think long term and plan things out sometimes out of pure curiousity. This thread gets me thinkin lol.

From what I gather you seem to be in the opposite situation. Im just now doing the math properly and still its hard to charge more. The war is over in my state its a different game.
Plus Im not trying to really deal. If I were I actually wouldnt up my prices much more still, Id start off building clientel attracting with stand out prices.
If they keep coming back and I was trying to make money and my product was like nothing else. Maybe can squeeze in some more money.
Will see how this goes I guess. Its just such chump change I feel petty for asking for any money at all lol. Market crashed.

Telegram is under fire right now...
I told my boy not to shop for units on there back in 2023.
But You show a good Instagram photo of your bud...an people will talk about it.
That's all we buy weed from is LOOKS...an smell.
You are going to smoke weed...it may be plentiful but you ARE going to run out & buy more. It may be cheap...but you will still spend it.
It cost to get high.
Just save up an buy better smoke.

I know my prices are crazy but its really whats to come in all 50 states. I lost touch with people in the game but long ago it wasnt good as is soon as it passed legal.
Id feel better if it was legal and not petty like 3 plant rules etc. Just build bonds and yes probably get more money for your work.

Getting clients is a bitch if your weed is not above average.
You can show it all day...
An maybe get a few bites...
If it REEKS you can use that to advertise.
Open it up an let the odor cause a riot
It would be kick ass if there was a national hotline you call an locate a open source dealer

weedmaps used to be like that but the states forced them to stop if they wanted to operate in their states

Oook playing with calculator 50 an oz sounds much better to compete with 60-70$ an oz before tax. It has to be really freakin good though. I just havent grown many strains let alone anything special.
Thats something to keep thinking about but damn its hard to please people. Customer loyalty is important.

I got to buy them oz’s and check them out maybe Im looking at this all wrong. I do remember being dissatisfied with the oz for 50 when they furst came out or 35$ before tax I forget.
Then they had a strain that does it for me but outdoor version. It was a great budget booster. I worried its going to be the new norm oz for 25$ but most stores do like 60-70$.
Its real good quality though. I can try seeing how this porto leche does its pretty fancy. Maybe that can deserve an extra hamilton per oz.

Thats what I was saying all along really I just think Im being hard on myself if Im going to. My weed currently aint that bad. Ive struggled to get high on cheaper weed.
I like to base it off whats available. I know all the stores or st least the ones to buy from if you want quality and affordable.
Id like to caregive for no more than 3 people being family. I lost all friends but could always make more. Not in a conflict of interest way, because I genuinely enjoy having them around.
Ill still give free small amounts of stuff whenever the opportunity presents itself.

I have to watch my ass with 48 buckets an 1 8inch can filter.
I just lost a crop due to a security breach...
I had to cut a prize pheno down..
I can't have any leaks in my ship
No odor
No outside eyes
No friends coming over.
I live like a monk til harvest
Then I gotta watch for robbers after harvest.

Shit Im already caregivin. An order placed for a tent grow just for them. If I do 25 an oz since it smokes smoother and has impressive smells. Ill break even and even make 60 bucks worth.
Shit just trade me a carton cigs and I dont have to buy them. I hope theres nothing wrong with that post legal. You could with tobacco AFAIK.
Thanks for the advice I think this will be fun.

6 to 12 pounds is hard to move at a rapid pace.
I have to break down the whole thing to zips.
Then store it for the next 3 months as I sell it
I know I can dump a pound or 2 to some people.
But then they have to move it.
It takes time ...
It's an everyday stuggle...
4 oz or less is a misdemeanor.
So I walk around with a QP on me daily.
In a back pack...
Asking who needs smoke...
ALL DAY...
No gun cause that's an added felony...
If I get robbed...I got robbed.
Sucks but I wouldn't miss 4 oz. Out of 96 or worse 192
I am aiming for 280 a zip
I offer 200 a zip
I stuggle at 100 a zip....dealers only.
I can't afford to make less than $13,000 on 6 pounds
