Must be really bad for everyone.

My buddy is getting $11 eights of nice amber colored mids right now. I never thought I would see $88 Ounces of somewhat decent buds!!! Needless to say, he is snatching up as much as he can get.

Just to give you an idea Mexican Brick Weed is usually $35 and eight MINIMUM!

You're not the only one.

My boyfriend is having trouble too.

Everyone wants him to front them, and its been
a month and only one person has paid him back.

:?

And then everyone wants it cheaper. It sucks. We haven't
had a grow yet, but shit, trying to flip an oz and make profit

isn't easy when everyone wants it cheaper. Can't wait
until the grow is done. Free chronic for us!!!

Cheaper prices for everyone else.

Amen.
Instead of selling, it makes a much better gift. You'd be surprised what nice things your neighbor will do for you when you give him a sack of smoke every once in a while. Or how about, "Merry Xmas, Bob." or "Happy Birthday!"

It just brings a f#ckin tear to your eye...

Exactly I love hookin up my family and my best friend's for free. I'm not a slave to the almighty dollar.

Amen. When my boyfriend and I finish our first grow,
everyone will get a few samples.

But I need some help.

I want to send a few grams to my big bro because he is a
grower too. He's got about 4 years experience growing under

his belt, and I want him to taste how our first grow comes out.
Anyone know how to send a few grams from CA to TX???

Ideas, Ideas???

Your ignorant, Atleast spell Canadian correct. Secondly I do not smoke this "brick weed". Want to know why? Because i dont live beside mexico and brick weed isnt up here. How have you smoked or bought my stuff? Wow you must live close. And when did I once compare your weed with mine. Im sure its good but I sure as hell wouldnt pay 40 bucks and eighth for weed.

And I think you have beasters mixed up with something else. Beasters is weed from BC, not brick weed.
I get a little sensitive, when people say things like they can get 8ths for ridiculously cheaper prices than what I get it for or charge.
I've been told by people who have been around weed for decades that I grow the best weed they've ever had.
I have people that buy from me and me only. They'll even hold out for a week or more until I harvest another crop.
Lemme put it this way, Pick up a HighTimes Mag and look at the buds in there....That's my weed.
I should be charging 60-80 8th. But I don't. I'm not greedy.

It just bothers me that I can't even get the cheap prices that I charge already.
In fact today I let 2 Z's go for 500.

Also, I don't give it away unless it's for B-day gift or something.
Growing weed costs money, Each crop costs me about 250, and that's not including my labor.
My labor is about 20 hours/ week.

it does NOT cost enough to justify those prices. sorry buddy, even if you grow the best shit in the world, you don't have the right to charge that much for it.

nobody does.

No offense but he has the right to charge whatever he likes. People don't have to buy it though. If no one is buying it then either he's stuck with it or he needs to bring the prices down.
I might disagree with the prices he tries to sell for, but I dont HAVE to buy it.

Also, the justification is that he might have to spend thousands of dollars and time in jail if he gets caught, not the cost of the product.

meh, that's a crap justification for most people.

and I don't believe anyone has the right to overcharge for something that can be grown for under 200 dollars. i think it's fucked that people can almost do it for free and profit thousands and thousands of dollars.

even if he may have the actual 'right' to sell it for that much, no one should buy over-priced weed. good weed should be cheap.

look dude i grow to buy food for my little girl. SHE JUSTIFIES THE COST. Especially since I grow pot to bring in the bacon.

I TAKE THIS KIND OF ISSUE TO DEEP HEART WHAT THE FUCK IS WRONG FOR SELLING A SUPERIOR PRODUCT AT TOP DOLLAR?

Jack Daniels cost more than Evan Williams. Coca Cola costs more than Diiet RIte. Porche costs more the Hyundai.
EDIT: YOU ARE A GUITAR PLAYER, ARE YOU SAYING GIBSONS ARENT BETTER QUALITY EPIPHONE OR SQUIRE AND THE COST IS UNJUST?

ARE YOU SAYING THERE IS NO QUALITY DIFFERENCE BETWEEN THOSE PRODUCTS THAT WARRANTS HIGHER COSTS?

not everyone can grow killer bud. IF THAT WAS TRUE THEY WOULD BE AND THEY ARE NOT.Look around you its everywhere - here, IC, the farm, the island... lots of weak sauce growers trying to grow it up "because growing the bomb is easy". Ha ha ha.

A $200 crop ??? is not gona be the way I rock it homey. I pay $1000 just for power EVERY MONTH. $500 per crop for nutes. And rent. AND THEN THERES THE ISSUE OF MY TIME....

the CLUBS and patients I work with have the option to purchase my wares, or not pruchase my wares. they can get cheaper wares, sure - and they know its LOWER QUALITY.

if people are gonna pay for it, to quote DMX, "X gonna give it to 'em".

THE PRICE IS JUSTIFIED
if you don't like too fucking bad because contray to popular belief the cost of cannabis is not gonna drop. MIDS WILL DISSAPPEAR sure but the taxes that are gonna be tacked on are gonna keep things right where they are.... for so cal, at least. Prices on the East Coast will drop to the West Coast level.

show me a QUALITY COMMERCIAL CROP grown INDOORS LEGALLY for $200 and I'll start taking you serious.....


edit: seriously, not some little fucking fisher price closet grow. Show me where a dude is pumping out 2-3 lbs per month for under $200....
this is gonna be good.

I've bought that stuff that your talking about for 25-30/ 8th.
It's basically "Brick Weed" or beasters.

Don't compare that Canadien crap with mine. There's no comparison, It's insulting that you even think that.
hahaha canada dosent smoke bc thats just the mass produced weed they send to the states

Until you have put the time & effort into growing your own,
you'll never know what it's like to know that you grow the best weed around.
When you know this and you know that it's extremely rare for someone else in the area to grow the same quality.
You start to think to yourself, "Am I charging this weed to cheap.
Because as a grower, you know what it all took to get your weed to look this outstanding.
In my area I charge slightly under what everyone else charges.

Marijuana is basically a BlackMarket product.
I can charge whatever I please.
But if I want repeat business, I keep my prices right with or slightly under everyone else.

I know what you mean though. I felt how you do a long time ago,
On the fact that why should I pay X amount of dollars for this.
That's when I decided, I'll grow my own.

In the beginning when I started growing, My first few crops were terrible quality.
But as I gained experience I also expanded my grow op.
Growing weed can be pricey, But I knew if I wanted HighTimes magazine quality I new I had to sink several thousands of dollars into my op.
To make really sticky-icky chronic takes a helluva alot more money than $200.
Just the maintenance that I put into growing phenomenal weed costs me about $250/harvest.

I've had people tell me they're not gonna spend $40 an 8th.
I simply tell'em, "Try and find better quality for less".
Usually the people that tell me this, are young folk who don't know the difference between good weed and excellent weed.
I sometimes even have to give them a short tutorial on how weed is grown and what it's supposed to look like.

those are called ankle biters
they are the worst cleints to have.
they think they are the most important client calling at all hours for small potatoes.

send those cheap fuckers on their way and they will learn, or keep smoking the shitty stuff....

250 a zip for some grand daddy purp northern lights ak47 all that shit? Bongjuice you would be my constant connect and id be comming to you every fuking day with those numbers. NY is ridicoulous you cant get a zip of any of those strains for less then 375 unless you get a single pound and the cheapiest is 350/zip then. Please id pay 300/zip for the shit you got if you lived in my area. NY doesnt even get much purp and just having that would make my day. Dont listen to these people single zips in NY go for 400 flat maybe in your state its cheaper but if people pay 300 regurarly for it then sell it for that.

agreed..id pay those prices..around here its 350+ for anything worth a damn,and thats just good buddies..no northern lights,train wreck or purple haze all those diff strain names.....60 a 1/8th is normal price if you wanna get high and not hack your head off..
i say,if people pay it..let them,u know your shits good,and so do they.and if they want it bad enough,they will pay whatever the cost..just like cigs..they keep going up in price..we keep bitching..but we keep on paying the price..atho we still look for the best deal..but thats just how business works...
