Fifty+ lbs.= $$$$$$$$$. I think thats all you see. If you are "nickle and diming" your grow, you are caught already. One grower + one buyer can be done. Four daughters, two BS degrees and 2 PHD's, took alot more than 50 lbs. thats when my dearest friend shut down his operation, I was his only trimmer, ?????? was his only customer, a great ride for years. All indoor, His property, locked gates, underground, generating his own power. The only way to go. Get some smarts, make a long term plan, in 5 - 10 years you may pull it off.

here's how it worked out:

i'm in the game with some really good outdoor landrace genetics. i've got 30+ years of experience under my belt. it was a very tough go. you need a "day job" paycheck of some type coming in. this could be middle man on other ppls products until you get your grow program solidified.

i love what i do. it's not work if you love what you do.

if legalization sweeps the law books in different regions the game will change significantly.

eventually get your own grow space. guerrilla is an entry point in my opinion.

^ yes, within the "system". cannabis is big big business. with all the taxes, bullshit to deal with in the system being outside the box definitely has it's +pluses. i've got a business degree from the number 1 biz college in america at the time i went thru business school. i was sickened by the one dimensional "mind think" i perceived most business majors to suffer under. i had a lot of social science classes in addition to my business classes. i use the training i received in business school and the social science perspectives every day in my canna ventures as well as day to day life experiences. real life experiences for me were/are by far the most valuable teaching lessons. my cognitive structures benefited greatly from being exposed to a first rate college experience. meditational yoga has really helped clear up the muddled thinking the system academics imposed on us. so, a lot of influences pulled together by my cognition and yoga influence is helping out a lot.

if you go into a canna venture on your own the business training can be very valuable. being your own boss is good.

sorry bro.. but nowere in the US.. does outdoors go for 4k a lb.. and wen people want outdoors and buy WEIGHT. ur looking at between 1500-3k a lb.. MAX unless ur runnin the most amazing strains outdoors that can pass off as indoors.. but when u harvest 50 lbs.. and need to trim 50 LBS .. u trim fast.. and it comes out like OUTDOORS.. so.. really min of 75k and max of id say 150k.. off a season.. but more then likely.. ulll realize that the work is REALLY TOUGH.. the soil an everything costs alot to grow GOOD OUTS,.

i did the math last year.. to grow trees.. u need 100gallons of soil per plant unless ur going to mix with native soil. then atleast id say 50 gallons. wen i did the math out. i was spending 30 bucks a bail .. and needed at the least . a bail per plant. then ewc and perlite and everything for a nice soil mix.. so.. if ud do it the RIGHT way and shit.. ya it can make money.. but u arent gooing to be pulling a 50LB harvest by urself.. with just ur GF helping u.. lol.. sorry brotha.. u need another man that can lift 60-100 lbs at a time.

i wish u the best..and good luck. post ur pics.. but the work needed to do a nice huge yielding grow.. is alot of work .. and to do GUERILLA is tougher.. cuz u cant be spoted in our out. and getting all the soil and shit there is abitch. i mean shit im already getting my soil ready for next year.. and already getting my spots ready for next year right now.. only because i thought i could do it the year of.. and made the mistake.. and got 2 spots ripped.. 1 spot eaten by some animals. and i have 2 spots left. 1 not even close to being done.. and the ohter mite yield something..

its all about soil. genetics.. and a shit load of hard work .

You'll need to grow indoors for income, and live like a raccoon or possum on the weekends.
Totally avoiding roadside traffic of any kind.
Once dropped off late at 3am, with all supplies needed to do 40 plants a weekend for 5 weekends in a row, to prep all the spots for "200 plants minimum", you'll need to carry it all to the spots yourself (assuming you have the spots scouted and marked out already),
then spend the entire weekend working hard.
Camp there by yourself in an extremely hidden camo tent. NO CAMP FIRES!!!!!!
Bring food you dont need to cook!!!
Wear camo. Stay hidden. Have a cover story and evidence to back it up incase you get caught. Stay hydrated. Good luck!!!!
Ide stay in school. Stop smoking so damn much and start studying dude.
I wish I had an education. Theres not alot of money in a guerilla grow and theres to many things that can go wrong to invest that much into it unless you were legal in Cali and had the land to do a big grow within state limits. You'de have an education, a high paying job, and a great OD grow thats legal.

EH-Hmmm......$4800 in my neck of the woods. But like you said, it has to be Top-Shelf quality from Top-Shelf genetics.
Grown perfectly by expert growers who have done it successfully for years.

For real. I know oldtimers that used to get 5200 when i was getting 3000... Then they were holding out for 4800 when i was getting 2500. He was breaking down more q's than moving whole ones, so his stuff moved slow. Last year he had no business and would not lower his price. He is currently not growing because he said "its not worth it" lol.

I don't see anyone paying 4800 per when buying wholesale. What part of the US is this happening in?
