what do u charge to run bho for some1

[CarefulGrower]

I run for friends. I have all the equipment, they bring material/butane (I will pick it up, but take a larger cut) and generally take 20%, fair in my opinion.

If it's a pick up/drop off (I grab your material, return with oil) it's 30% minimum. Everything supplied but butane.

I hate the idea of 50/50. Around here, top grade trim goes for 200 a lb.
Maybe 250 if it's devoid of fans and stems and has nice nugs and smells great.
Off that 454g, say 13% is a good yield. Say 60g. At 15 a g, thats 900 bills. For
a gross profit of 650-700. If you give half, your paying like 450 a lb for
trim which in my mind is insane. Plus you assume all the risk, pay for solvent, electricity, ice, iso, paper towels,
coffee filters, lab tests, etc, and your time. I would feel like I'm working for the trim donor.

Much rather pay upfront, then on the backside. Especially when you've been working your ass to the bone, and they say
"Is that all?" and question your honesty.

25% take. They pay all supplies.

250/lb? Heh, do you live on the moon?

 

[RegisPhilburn1]

Kcar you make a good point. I always prefer to buy the material when its good and they will let me buy it, just feels better not being on a deadline and not having to worry about pleasing somebody other than your customers. It sucks when it ends up yielding low, but its never been bad enough that it wasnt worth the 200ish per.

otherwise,
50/50 yield i provide everything, even winterized. 40/60 for nug runs. got a waiting list going

 

[RegisPhilburn1]

250/lb? Heh, do you live on the moon?

is that too much? its about 200 here to

 

[Calimed]

is that too much? its about 200 here too

100-200 a lb for trim around here. Last seasons for 50.

 

[Kcar]

250/lb? Heh, do you live on the moon?

I've seen people asking 350. Don't know if anyone is paying it, though.

 

[BredForMeds]

I don't even know anyone selling trim. or else id BUY IT ALL..

people are assholes.. u realize who ur friends r really quick. in the weed business.

 

[BredForMeds]

im doing 1/3rd yield if they provide butane an material. and if its not a friend.. 50-50 if they provide.. im not risking blowing up my house.. or my body.. bcuz people are too cheap to grab there own setup.

 

[mk6]

a wise man once said "give your friend a fish, and he can eat for a day... teach him how to fish and he can eat for life..." so why not show your friend how to...

 

[Hash Man]

If they buy their own equiptment i would be glad to show real friends whats up. Although real friends are few and far between.

Too many guys get the green fever and forget who helped them along the way. When this happens over and over, it becomes less of a priority to show people how to extract and purge properly.
If i teach a guy to fish i do it under the assumtion he isnt going to steal my fishing hole when i am not looking...

Couldn't have said it better myself!

You could prolly get 3 if it was REALLY nice with buds and crystally and a good high thc strain. And proven.

 

[m314]

I'd do it for free if it was for a real friend. I mean I'd show them the process and work with them all day to get it done. I'd do that for the kind of friend who'd spend a Saturday helping me move to a new house. If it was someone I didn't know that well, I'd show them exactly what to do with a small batch and let them do the rest of the work. I don't get much free time these days.

exact reasons.. if anything he can take the time that I took RESEARCHING ONLINE.. for a month .. before I even tried my first extraction.. then did a extraction.. and researched another month about purging without a vacuum.. then another month of practice on material.. then bought the vac and chamber..

the dudes don't wana buy there own equipment.. they think they should be able to use my shit wenever they want.. FOR FREE..

the last time I let someone use my shit.. it came back 1 tube cracked from tightening the hose clamp to tight.. and my chamber came back with fucking disgusting shit in it .. and on the outside.


they think they can get there shit processed for free..

FIND ME 1 PERSON that will give there full technique to making amazing shatter.. out to some1 for free.. so they can steal all your business?

Im the type of person.. were ill help u out till u fuck me. or take advantage of me.. then.. that's it.. im done. I don't fuck around anymore.. too many people wana get into the weed business.. and then they want people that are growing better bud then them.. to give them clones.. advice... nute regimens.. and then after.. drying techniques.. and curing.. then how to trim fast and effiecently.. then they are asking for my equipment to make bho. lol.. next thing u know.. ill be making free bho.. for everyone who considers me a friend.. but only a friend on the day they need something.. the second I need any help.. its a dude im busy.. sorry.. next time.... then next time its the same shit.. man im just too busy..

SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
FUCK YOU.. u aren't getting the clones I worked for.. the seeds I phenohunted.. and the techniques I learned to make a amazing product. "NO THANK YOU"

my REAL FRIENDS.. offer 50=50 splits and help do the entire process.. fake friends want a 1/4 split.. and if there material is garbage and they have a shit yield.. they want to switch to a lower amount of split for me..

im sorry but name any business were FREE gets the owners of the equipment and business.. anything but bankrupt.

shit.. the last time we had our car break down.. my so called FRIENDS didn't help me do shit.. the real friends.. 2 came down to were I was stuck.. and helped me jump it.. that didn't work.. and the other used his fuckin AAA membership.. to get my car towed so I wouldn't need to spend the money on it.

REAL FRIENDS are the ones u can count on 100%. fake friends.. count on u 100%.. and don't help u even if it was life our death situations.


not to mention. REAL FRIENDS our hard to find.. the new generations feel they are OWED SOMETHING.. like they don't need to work for anything.. they don't need to show respect.. they are spoiled lil bitches.

Yea man, jealosy turns to greed.

I define a true friend as someone who is absolutely happy for you when you are doing well... And helpful and empathetic when you are not...consistantly.

Do u ever notice some guys get excited or more conversational when u tell them u lost $ or are not doing so well. Then when you made tons of $ or are doing really well they are always sulking and in a bad mood? Its subtle but always obvious in hindsight.

I stopped helping everyone that asked after one bubble hash session with a "friend". I was showing him how to make the full melt clear dome with his indoor shake because he asked me to help him out. I ran him theough the steps and did a couple runs with him and walked him step by step through the process. We got halfway through his shake. I went inside to keep trimming and told him he was welcome to finish the shake with my ice and equiptment. He seemed annoyed that i wouldnt finish all of it for him. After it was all processed and on cardboard, he put it in tupperwares to take back to his house to cure. He gave my friend a small chunk of hash, but left without saying thanks or giving me anything. I went out back and all my bubble bags and tools and washing machine were not cleaned and were laying around everywhere.

It was such a passive aggressive move i never forgot it and politely refused to help him ever again. Looking back in hindsight about the situation, a few things became obvious. There was always an undercurrent of jealosy or competition about this guy. I started him off in distribution way back before we were even medical. Over the years he was always in a bad mood or sulking and asking for help when my $ was up. The few times i took a break from the game or was lower tham him $wise, he got greedy, charged outrageous prices, had wild fits of temper, and had a narcissistic personality.

The warning signs are always there, but sometimes they are hard to accept.

My point to the story is this-If u see signs of jealousy then dont help them. A jealous/greedy person only thinks in terms of value. Always charge a commission agreed upon upfront or they will find some way to get over on u.

 

[norcal_sourD]

Half of the finished product, and they pay for butane which I procure at wholesale prices. I don't charge them any premium on the butane either. If they aren't amenable to that, I charge half or so of the $ from the finished product. That being said however, it's a tight market where I'm at so zips (of bho) might go for $250-300..Obviously I prefer the latter arrangement as it minimizes my risk and maximizes my profit.

 

[critter1685]

Crazy it's already dropped to herb prices from a couple years ago

 

[rb extractors]

we do a 50/50 split in general. maybe 60/40 for a friend if they bring it to us. sometimes we do trade to be able to buy nug runs cheaper. it is all about networking. making deals and relationships that help secure material in the future.

we also buy trim, align ourselves with certain shops that require people vending flowers to sell them their trim or they won't buy the flowers (since those selling flowers have limited places to sell), etc. you can spend 50 to 1200 for trim to lowers/nugs depending on the what the quality is and what you can make off it.

the best thing you can do is align yourselves with a couple shops who can keep you supplied with trim and allow you to piggyback flower orders at cost.
