thankslooks bomb.
....... i wish i would have grown more than 1 plant
though......i am a newbie and had no idea what i was doing (still dont), i didnt top it soon enough and it ended up being nine feet tall lol, i actually did pretty good on waiting to chop it though, i read so many threads with newbies that got too inpatient and cut early, i harvested some (bout a half O), it was premature so i let the rest mature for another 14 days, turned out great!.....anyways.....sorry to go off topic.

So a name brand bud will only bring in 3200-3600 dollars.... Is that in CALI only? From DISPEN? ON THE STREET?? Explain a little

Cali dispensaries will low ball you if you let them. indoor prices go as low as 28. But also as high as 40, it really depends on your relationship with the dispensary. Coming in off the street with no prior vending transactions means you can probably get 37 tops. that is super tops for something amazing that no one else has like some pure haze or love potion or some other crazy sativa. if you got some standard hybrid then, 36 is tops, and it has to be amazing. not just amazing, but noticeably better than the others of the same genes. everything is relative, and most weed stores would rather turn you down than make a hundred less on the p.

They all looked very good. I wouldn't be too worried about the quality of any of those.

It's not about having name brand bud. It's about having good bud. I'd usually get a little more for a couple of my strains that I've either bread myself or are oldschool local strains with no known name because I'm the only one who has them. That's assuming they are high quality of course.
Street prices, I don't know. I get offers all the time. Usually a little lower than dispensary prices. My friends that are into that sort of thing will barely break 3 on a pack. The only people who have offered me more than dispensaries were people I don't know real well. That always dinged the "potential cop" bell in my head, so I declined. I've got a pretty good relationship with several clubs so I never really had the necessity to go there.
Clubs want a few things and price depends on those qualities. In this order:
1) bag appeal (bud size, color, over all look)
2) strength
3) smell
4) density
5) taste
Taste isn't actually that important at all when dealing with clubs (which is why there is more hydro than organics in clubs).
If you have big strong dense good smelling buds then you're in the 3400-3600 range. If they are purple too or the buds have some other quality that give them extremely good bad appeal then you can push that up to the 36-4 range.
If they are smaller buds in the pack or there is some other flaw relating to bag appeal or strength then you're probably looking at closer to 28-32.

in humboldt county around this time of year {post harvest season} ive herd you can get pounds of og for like 26-28
I would be happy with a consistent $3700 from a Dispensary....indoor too!

grow your relationship. it's all about bag appeal the first time, after that its about quality and repeat buyers. 37 is tops for something rare or un-effing-believably good. i like to have mine lab tested before I go to vend.

It is pretty ridiculous how flooded Cali is this year, especially up in Mendocino, Humbolt, Lake County, etc. Prices are as low as $800-$1200 for outdoor. It's not very good quality at those prices, but it's still sorta scary that it has gotten that cheap, even for commercial grade. For the most part 2000 has been top dollar up here for outdoor from what I have been seeing, unless you drive it down to Sac or SF or someplace outside of the Emerald Triangle, then you might get 2500 or more if it is good stuff. If you can pass it off as indoor or really impress the clubs, you might get 3000 for it. Even decent indoor has gotten as low as 2500 around here, so it's not just the outdoor growers that are hurting too.
It really comes down to you connections, your quality, and where you are sending it too. The further you get form NorCal, the more likely you are to get a higher price. Also if you are selling it in smaller amounts, or sending it out of state, you can make more a lot more of course. It helps if your outdoor doesn't look like typical outdoor too, a lot of people cannot tell the difference if it is good buds. I usually get low-end indoor prices for my outdoor even here in Mendo, but that is only because it does not look like outdoor, and I have a few unique stains that almost no one else has.
There were a LOT of people up north that did not sell out last year either. I think we're going to be seeing a lot more growers hanging it up this year as we getting are into a second year of no-sales for some people. It has become so flooded that now it not so much a question of what prices one can get, but if it can be sold at all. If you don't have good quality, then forget it, no one is going to buy it. There are a lot of old-timers and lazy fucks that grow bud that can no longer compete in todays market. More and more its is becoming like running a vineyard or any other legit business. The days of the small time back yard or mom and pop growers is over I think. You gotta be on top of your shit and know what you are doing to cut it as a grower in NorCal these days.

Less than that. A few weeks ago I was offered some very solid stuff for ~2-24 on several occasions. Wish I had a bunch of extra money to blow. I'd have totally bought a bunch and just sat on it all winter.

Some clubs will pay that just so you don't sell to their competition. I love going to expo/cup events with samples and let competing clubs bid over it. The buyers will totally over pay just so the other clubs don't get it. Fun stuff

This thread has me worried. In my state, which has medical, prices are 4k+ for dank. I have heard from some friends in other states that do not have medical, they drool over anything decent for 5k and under. Must be nice.
