a few clubs in my town are selling eighths for 15$, so im guessing selling weed to the clubs is out of the question

how can people make money in a legal system?

By growing a lot with great genetics developed for your ecotype and selling at prices that are aligned with regular farming costs. Vertical integration helps if you have access to capital.

how are the prices in oregon? are people making decent money from small indoor grows? i can bloom about 60 plants max using perpetual growing

[socioecologist]

No. Not at all. But local conditions are always unique. If you can in your place, do it. Use what you made to build bigger in a smart way. The end game is always about selling your product in the market place, not how many plants you can grow.

EPIC! was that grown without herbicides and without pesticides?

Given the history of cannabis, it will take a while for indoor to go away, but it will eventually become rarer, I mean, look at how much can be grown outdoor, without greenhouses, with the right genetics, ... epic!

Zero sprays. "Beyond organic". This is an industrial hemp crop (CBD). 15%-20% when finished. Farming is farming...if you know your plants and environment, anything is possible.

That said, OP wants to know if you can make money growing small scale. The answer is no in the long term.

Boutique,,or unique strains will always have a market...yeehaw

I'm working on developing a solid outdoor game. Indoor here is becoming difficult because people don't want to pay for the quality anymore.too many asshats driving down the price of the good stuff with mediocre.

Concentrates also seem to have an effect on the flower market. You can take a mediocre crop looks wise and turn it in to gold, shit you could never sell in flower form.

This is what I'm finding and legalization is just getting started here.

I'm glad I started learning over a decade ago, I'd hate to be a noob grower with profitable aspirations right now.

What state are you from?

I don't see any way for a small grower to succeed in a legal market- after all its just a plant like tomatoes, basil, oranges, ect... You don't see any farmers running a business with 60 tomato plants no matter how good it is. Trout was right, there will always be a market for premier indoors but honestly the large warehouse people are growing top shelf already and doing it for much lower costs than a small op could.

That being said- in business the theory is called "value added products". This is where you turn a commodity into a unique product and that is where you stand the best chance to make your money. For example, Ocean Spray Juice is making wayyyy more money than the cranberry growers, or look at a package of beef jerky which is $0.50 worth of beef being sold for $5 at the store. Once its no longer a commodity you can earn your profit from selling uniqueness and special appeal
