And also if it costs 1 to 4 dollars a gram to grow as far as electricity, i know im not taking equipment and such costs in but
$1 to $4/gr, ouch. When I was using HPS it cost me about $0.60/gram for electricity in the summer, $0.40/gr in the winter. With LED it cost me less than $0.20/gram. That is for the whole system, vegging, cloning, flowering, circulation, ventilation, AC/demhumidifier. That is at the total rate of $0.13/kWh.
Sorry OP off topic but, If I look at weed prices from a consumer standpoint, it just makes me want to grow it myself. If I look at weed prices from a grower standpoint, I realize that we can provide people with bomb fire dank for relatively cheap prices and still have an awesome profit.
Some of my grower buddies spend a fortune on bottled nutes/soil each cycle. It really cuts into their profit but I see it as an unnecessary cost. If you recycle your soil you can just use granular ferts like organic chicken manure, kelp, guano, azomite and fish hydrolysate, blackstrap, homemade EWC. If you order in bulk a few hundred dollars will last you a few years.
