The life of an illegal grower

CallinCarRamRod · Mar 4, 2016

I think the worst part of growing in an illegal state is not being able to tell your friends that the insanely awesome weed they just smoked came out of your garage.
But at the same time, that feeling of knowing you create better smoke than most of what's out there,(in my area) and all your friends still talk about that crazy strain they "had" the last time i harvested. it makes you feel good....

No it doesn't. It fucking sucks. I just wanna tell everyone "Hey I fucking made this"!!!! Not to sound concieted, but I just wish I could tell somebody.

Growing cannabis is freaking awesome. Anyone can do it, but it takes knowledge, love, and time to create something truly awesome.

I mean, to think of all the people that probably grow within 15 miles of me would have some awesome knowledge and shit to share, have some bbqs amd smoke up together while comparing grows.but no, its illegal here.

But on the flip side, I just pulled 1.25lbs

You can't charge street prices when your friends know you grow

I live in Colorado, and this simply isn't true.

I live in cali where everyone either wants to rob you or take advantage in some way

I do. And I also I thank my stars for the knowledge people share on here. Before I lurked this place I didn't even know plants had sex, or what photoperiod meant.

And, it doesn't have to be. I have made the conscious choice to act like cannabis is medicine to share with people for their health, well being and happiness. One does not do that and continue treating everyone like a potential criminal.

I've been gifted with the ability to grow plenty for all. I would feel like I truly failed if I did NOT share my bounty with friends and acquaintances and those who just need it for their medicine.

That's not the plant, that's the neighborhood.

Yeah, but hooking your friends up with some of YOUR crazy dankness for cheap is one of life's great small pleasures.

I've heard things like this. Wish it wasn't true. Its a plant. Sure its worth a lot of money. But it fucking grows out of the ground. Shit happens just move on right? I mean is it just pure greed?

Yes true. I do live in an area where half the population is on meth but its not just them. Even the normal people are ungrateful and untrustworthy. They find out your growing and expect 5 dollar 8ths. Maybe i just dont know the right people but its sketchy here

WE NEVER PURGED OUR DABS FOR THE FIRST YEAR WE MADE THEM

I understand. I'm a small time guy learning, growing and expanding. I sell the little I grow to buy more equipment. Once I'm able to sustain myself and have surplus, prices will drop like a rock. I'd one day like to get to 100$ ounces to my friends. I'm not greedy but if there's money to make...
I gotta couple of people that go through pounds. If I could slip of couple of ounces to him each week, it'd pay my mortgage

But yes ttystick. That little feeling of euphoria inside you when you hear people rave about your buds

I've lived in a few places like that, so I'll tell you what I did;

I LEFT!

Getting as much $ as you can outta ur bud is ones of lifes great small pleasures also

I dont sell anymore though, I would rather smoke every bud down to the stem that I got

I like my shit better than anyone elses, plus i know it's been flushed, no mold, no pests, and no chemical pesticides on the buds.
