What does it cost you to produce one clone?

If you have a big enough res so less fluxuation and more stable pH you only have 2 attend 2 it every 10 days
How long does it take you to take cuts and fill up a 200 site aeroponics clone table? How long does it take you to plant 200 clones from a clone table? How many times you have to water before you get rid of them? Yadda yadda...

If one wanted to sell clones or pounds in a market as fiercely competitive as the cannabis market, be it legally or illegally they would need to know the answers to these questions. They would need to know a standard for how much production costed and whether or not they would be able to compete with that standard or if that standard applied in their region.

Let me see if I can break it down. Cannabis is legal to possess and consume for more than 200 million americans. 200 plus million americans live within a jurisdiction that allows one form of cannabis consumption or another. (there are approximately 300 million americans nationwide). That's 66% of americans who can legally buy cannabis.

We all want to believe this gravy train will keep on rolling, but regulation is coming and so is the standardization of production cost. That cost will directly effect the quality of the cannabis that is mass produced and directly effect the quality of the cannabis bought and sold in the shops. As a result of this many dispensaries have already figured out that they can make more money off of b-grade pot. If we allow this standardization to be set by the dispensary/shop owners because we don't know how to regulate our own costs, they will. And many of us in the process will lose the ability to continue doing what we love. The same logic can be applied to the black market and anyone who loves growing good herb as opposed to commercial production herb.

I allot one minute of professional time per startin a clone, or perhaps up to a hour, depends.

aero cloners must be the easiest all around if one cares about numbers, but it may involve transplant.

this part is a labor of love .
i have a 20 year old (5 years at my house) sfv og that is a 15-20 day girl... almost not worth the time...

BUT then i did my local farmers market with my wife and got 4.99 a lbs for tomatoes that were HARDER to grow that weed and smelier to pick ewwww. even just packing the car was not worth the 200-400$ i got for the produce....
now i realize most people want alot of money . i dont care about that , i wanna grow stuff . i will always be frivilous , and like self sufficenticy . why even grow 77day sour d ??
WHY GO SPEND MONEY AT A DISP. THAT SELLS "B" GRADE???<< noone i know does twice.... i mostly sell LBS to caregivers wit mmore time and opportunity to "hang" and sell smaller amts. all my patients are m.s., cancer ,ect hevey need folks .... so we get them the best meds for the chpeast its the only way i know.....
