Thread: Invest in hemp, help a DG

    Post Invest in hemp, help a DG

    What's good family? I'll make this short and sweet.

    Cannabis is more than likely going to be taxed like alcohol in California, a cash crop- same as tobacco. No criminal penalties for cultivation, possession, distribution, etc.

    I need to get my nerdy ass down there ASAP so I can grow up some catatonic chronic.

    When I sell that dank, you get payed.

    Think I'm full of it?

    I need this man, herb is the only thing that helps my condition and you can barely get it here in Idaho. It's ridiculous.

    Bus ticket: $167
    Cheapest studio apartment at the old folks home in Humboldt County: $695
    Planters I'm guessing like: < $50
    Seeds: $8.99
    Soil I'm guessing like: $10

    So, start-up costs should be under a grand. I'm not sure how the taxation will work yet but I'm fairly confident you stand to make a pretty penny.

    I'm willing to put my life on the line for this opportunity.

    PM me if you are interested, have any questions, etc.

    Let's get this done.

    I don't think you've really thought this through enough. There's no way that you are going to be able to get this started for the cost of planters, soil, and seeds. There are going to be tons of regulations IF this even happens, and really high start up costs. I also don't know where you're buying seeds, I've never seen high quality seeds for $8.99.

    man fuck the taxes an shit hes totally leaving the whole growing operation out.

    this is why america is full of shit weed mang.

    pot needs to be between 65(at the LOWEST[i keep mine ahppy at 70]) and 75 degrees at the hottest

    needs to be moist but not moldy moist
    need grow lights preferrably blue spectrum to veg from a metal halide then when switching to flower a red spectrum from a high pressure sodium*

    also, dirt is great, as long as you can keep the N-P-H balances in a kosher state.

    eg, dont nute-lock your plants, its not good for them but having to flush them can produce badness all the way around. ive done it before but its not recommend unless absolutely necessary.

    i mean fuck dude lets not even mention the fans/filters and the box to house flowering plants as you dont want light to get to them.

    theres alot more that goes into cannibus cultivation than just 'pots, dirt, and seeds'.


    but if ya need some seeds im your source. get at me.


    *note: thats about 600-1000$ worth of lights. you need the bulbs/ballasts/shields etc. ebay you can get it for about 400 for the two but i wouldnt recommend ebay lights. mine was DoA

    What makes you even think weed is going to be legal in Cali? You're gonna move there cause an assemblymember is proposing a legislature? This has happened many times before and it has failed. Also maybe you failed to read that they charge wholesalers $5k + 2.5k annually.

    Your business plan only wants 1 months rent? Do you think you put the seed in the box and poof comes a plant that is ready for sale? It is going to take at least a few months before that seed becomes anything you are going to be able to sell I would guess

    sorry to piss on your business plan, but wow

    Kuni i agree with cit1 you will need more than one month. Maybe three. I also would wait until this legislation has been passed. California is desperate for funds so this may occur this time around. Sit tight and good luck.

    Not to mention, even when it gets passed it is going to be like a tobacco license or liquor license, just because you have a seed and some dirt you are not going to be able to grow freely and go out on the corner and sell it.

    Man i hope they set the barriers high like $xxK per year per license or some crazy shit to keep small players out of the game from fucking up the market. I would finance a legit weed operation I bet the ROI would be ridiculous.

    with all the chems and fertilizers they use I would not be surprised to see the bay area go nuts on some organic green

    lmao - if you want to grow enough to make a living, you will burn like a fourth of your startup capitol on electricity in the first month... you might want to read up about the plant and how much care it needs to grow properly

    I invested in a legal ca growing operation, and will be seeing a return in the middle of march. the plants are looking nice.

    you can grow it the legal way now, but its about a good 6-7k to get it off the ground. you won't see any money back until 3 months later. then its every 2 months after that. thats with about 40 plants (10 plants per med script, max of 4 med scripts per house that grows). the selling it part will be illegal unless you get the wholesaler license down, which will add to your costs.

    there's always contingencies. the police always have the "fed" laws as a chip on their shoulder to fuck you with no matter how legal you are. or you get some fucked up land lord that'll try to extort you if they figure out you're growing. there's always threat of jacking/theft if you're being an idiot and inviting people over.

    just make money on the internet, and start growing a plant or two in your own time to get the process down. most people I know have disappointing results their first time. if you need startup funds bad enough, check out the other "make money" forum.

    Not to rain any more on your parade, but even if Cali passes a law that legalizes weed, it means nothing to the feds. The law will for all practical purposes be null/void. Sorry dude, but state regulation of weed died in 2005. See Gonzales v. Raich. Your gonna need the feds to get on your side, or your gonna need to remain well hidden. There is no medical marijuana, and there is no legal weed as far as the feds are concerned.

    Read an article in the NYT a few days ago thats Obama is prolly gonna tell the DEA to get of the little guys in Cali. Basically you will see a reduction in the number of crackdowns on small scale operations which dont use the money for other illegal stuff.

    I figure its about time and Obama is way more easier on weed than Bush

    I mean I guess the state folks could choose to ignore it, but that doesn't really provide a guarantee of safety. So, yea, exactly.

    As for the state trying to not to enforce fed rules... I guess it makes you safe from the state folks. I mean I'm not telling anyone not to grow chronic; hell, I would probably do it myself if I moved back to CA. I'm just saying weed is still illegal. Just because CA Legislature says otherwise doesn't mean you're safe. As noted above, the US Supreme Court already said that weed can be governed under the Commerce Clause (Federal law), and that includes any purely intrastate activities such as growing for sale only within the state. The feds have pretty much said all weed is illegal. So, sorry, the Court is gonna allow really broad interpretation here. Not saying that the feds under Obama won't have a more rational policy either; I'm just saying to be careful growing something that the feds say is illegal.

    Anyway, I'll pass the bar soon, and then I will be more than happy to represent you if you have any problems with your enterprise

    you really haven't thought this through.
    if you want to grow legally.. you need a medical card. on top of that a growers license enabling you to sell to the clubs. both these run AT LEAST 3 bills. on top of that seeds and soil WILL NOT GIVE YOU GOOD HERB, which is required for the clubs. Most of the good stuff is grown hydroponically, ebb and flow gardens, which can run you up to 3000 without nutrients and lighting.

    good luck.

    Mendocino is a HOTBED of action as far as growing goes. There have been a few busts recently, but it's usually only fuckers who get really greedy and start operations that can clearly be seen from a helicopter. Not to mention if you buy 2 tons of soil, the police are liable to follow you back to your plantation.
    Federal law sometimes gets in the way of really large operations in my country, but if you like plants... this place kind of rocks for this kind of thing.
