How much for a pound near you?

As a lead grower, I would expect to make $75K a year. It's a lot of work, and no days off. But when you get down to paying to do it.... things change. And then you have expenses.. nutes, electric, sticky traps, paper, ink, invoices, marketing, tools, equipment, fees, taxes.... it never ends.

$75k salary is ~$150k in payroll; not saying you aren't worth it - but that's quite a few $2500 pounds. A business would need to staff to ensure there are days off (you don't want to run afoul of the labor dept.), so there's two lead growers at $75k. I just don't see the legal market sustainable for anything other than a mega corporation.

Agreed.
 
Once this is legal on the federal level - and I can order an ounce of rosin off Amazon - we'll have a better idea as to the real metrics. A few companies in Cali are already working towards that end - quasi-direct sale to the consumer, using the dispensary as the fulfillment/last mile service; the taxes are different - and the price reflects that - but you can save $35 on a gram of rosin and $30 on a 1/2 oz of flower. Tends to be fresher, but HEAVY on the marketing - if I wanted fruity body and heavy on the back end I'd still be drinking moderately-priced wine.
 
Screw the corporations. I'll send them hermy pollen glitter bombs, and pay the slave laborers making 16 an hour extra 20 bucks on the side to track in highly resistant borg (gona start working on a new strain of mites) on their shoes, every day on their way to work to the giant factories.

They'll be forced to use roundup and no one will want that shit because when you smoke you'll get headaches.


What the hell are we doing just letting them monopolize the markets like this? It would be so easy to take them out befor they get big.

This is bio plant warfare!

@DoubleAtotheRON , I thought about you earlier today and that armadillo problem you had. My motion sensors kept going off and I went to see what it was and found this girl eating my bushes. I was going to remind her it's bow season as she was 15 yards away and broadside by putting an arrow through her but my wife has named her Dottie and made me promise not to hunt her. I took a pic of her instead and sent her on her way with a shout. Damn wife, that would have been a chip shot and I could have field dressed it on my deck. That deer has no idea how lucky it is :bigjoint: View attachment 5210329

My wife has named all of these deer that show up every night (we lay corn out)... all Kardashian names.. For fuck sake.

My wife's pet was out there last night at 4 in the morning setting off motion sensors. I have to go see what it is at that time of night as I have an outdoor plant that I worry about. I go out to check the yard and she's there just eating mountain Laurel leaves at the edge of the yard. My service dog passed away this summer and they've gotten a lot bolder without him barking and chasing after them.

Sorry about your dog.... I've gone through that a couple of times... it's like losing a family member.
 
One way to determine where the price is going is to look at the wages in the industry which are not very good for the average worker. Wages have dropped across the board as the available pool of qualified job applicants have grown.

Growing weed is easy. Those that claim it takes some special skill to yield quality weed are not very experienced with other agricultural crops.

Everything can be automated these days. It doesn't take someone fiddling around and staring at plants for hours to grow top quality bud. Indoors you provide light, environment, and irrigation. Everything can be automated. The work happens at setup and harvest when inexpensive temporary workers can be used. In between it's cruise control.

Outdoors requires more maintenance but with the right equipment for the task it's a pretty simple process.

Growing cannabis is no more difficult than growing Poinsettias which are sold worldwide around Christmas time for their vibrant red leaves.

What the hell are you talking about?
 
The Sick Shit about it...

EVERYONE has had an experience BUYING AAA+ DANK at least Once In Life...
If you did a study...Those transactions took on AVERAGE --2 minutes.
Sight & Direct Sale. Instantly.
Repeat clients happen in about 4 minutes...
IF you are SOLDOUT in 1 day...Your grower is Amazing
At scale, If a dispo is moving a pound a week ...10 pounds a week...that grower & the marketing are Super Human.

I still believe that there are GROWERs that can pull $3000 a pound in Humboldt, LA, Portland, & Houston...in a single day.
Think about that...

LowKey...
Prohibition PRICES are coming Back....Get Ready.
I already see it...
Even with Legalization..

Mega Farms only lead to a wasted shelf life...
I see it...Dispo's with green houses have stock from 2021
Consumers are looking for that STICKY ICKY lately...
However, Dispo bud has a foot hold...people enjoy that INSTAdust bud.

If I had 10 pounds ...I would hire street vendors 50:50 splits
Hire a street team--cut them loose like THING 2&1...
$40 @ 7grm. Anything over...is Yours.
20 people total....10 M & 10 F.

How long before IM SOLDOUT!!
 
My neighbor gave some very overpriced live rosin the other day. People are stupid. Hype and commercialism wins over the vast majority. That doesn't mean there won't always be a market for high level cannabis. Almost every product has price pointed tiers of quality for a reason. Popcorn Sutton was a moonshiner until he died. There was plenty of corporate competition.
