Someone must know: How much does a grower get paid?

I would say bring up a 50/50 split. If he doesn't bite, offer 50/50 and a split power bill. I'd expect for 4 lbs a month, you would have to be running about 4000W. It won't be that expensive, and he may overestimate the cost.

Can you work and have a main job while doing this on the side? cause making $5k from main job + $2k growing + your own weed would be good.

Experienced grower asked to setup and run a grow op. Everything covered: expense, location, security, legal (as much as possible under CA medical laws) issues all handled. All I'm expected to do is come in and run the operation (and produce a quality product, naturally). I completely understand the risk. No need for explicit details, but I'm expecting to harvest 4 lbs/month once up and running.


What percentage of the harvest should I get as compensation?
(I'm leaning toward asking for 25%, am I lowballing myself? Wholesale is $2000-3000/lb out here)

I know I posted this question before, but nobody seemed to have even an estimate. I know somebody has this arrangement...and yes, I realize how lucky I am. Thanks.
. I was wondering if you knew the site were i can find out about getting a growing license in CA. maybe you can point me in the direction. would be great.

a doctors reccomendation for medicinal cannabis automatically entitles you to grow ATLEAST 12 immature/6 matture plants. If youre trying to be a vendor and start a pretty big operation, I think there is more involved than that...check the norml website

thats what i was thinking, and no 2gs a month isnt ALOT of money, but its a nice fucking chunk every month TAX FREE, if you have a w2 job you would need to make at least 25% more to net the 2gs, before exspenses, I own a business (not growing lol) and I would take this deal in a heartbeat lol 2gs a month tax free beats a stick in the eye

50% all day, everyday. No less.. without you there is nothing. They bring the equip, you bring the ability to get it going.

One thing to look for though.. they might want to learn from you, which would make you useless...

Just a thought.

Peace,

The guy runs a co-op, so he has no interest in doing it himself. He's just tired of dealing with the vendors and wants to cut a couple out. There's some seedy mofo's out there peddling to the medical shops.
