Didn't see this coming

The whole reason I started growing was reliability. After moving three hours away from all of my connects, and having a hard time making new ones, it seemed to make sense. Living in the middle of nowhere helped too. So I decided to give it a try. After a couple months I had my first grow up and going. One night the wife and I go out to a bar and I finally met a fellow smoker. He gives me his number and tells me when I need hit him up. Now I got a connect when I need him and this being my first perpetual, that was kinda often. After the success of an LSD grow I let him in on my secret and sold him ounce. When he wanted more I explained that I have small harvests and that's all I could spare. This sparked an idea to step up my grow-op and make a little money. So I share my plan with the only guy within an hour I score from, thinking he'll be my only customer. I call him today for a sack to find out he's quite selling for now. He's tired of dealing with his guy and now wants to wait till I harvest and just get from me. That's great except my grow is still like three months away. Still got 2 weeks of vegging, then flowering, and then time to dry and cure. No big deal for him, he wants a break. Sucks for me, I'm back to square one.

You just went and broke the first golden rule there bro...

yeah he did. I get it from some guy that does not deal with anyone and when he has fresh I get and willing to pass on any extra he might have but that's it and no more lol

go back to the bar.

I was in a similar situation. Dry while waiting for a harvest. I used MOM suppliers. If you want the contacts I used PM me.

Not that you asked my opinion on this, but small time dealing just doesn't seem worth the risk. If I go to jail, it's going to be for big bucks. Just my 2c.

Just in case anyone gets the wrong idea, I dont sell or distrubute MJ. I never have and I don't expect I ever will. I run a small closet grow for personal use. Every now and then, things are interrupted and there is a dry spell.

Good luck.

Actualy heading there tonight.

i hope it goes well and all, i just can't imagine why you would tell some guy you met in a bar about your grow. i have friends that i've known for over 10 years that i would never breathe a word to. for all you know your whole town could be in on your secret by now. be careful.

I made very sure that things were more than okay before letting him know. Covered bases too. All I've ever given this guy is my first name and number I text from. He doesn't even know what town I live in. After this sudden stop in selling, I won't call him again. Thanks for the concern though.

Well those Obviously arn't friends then. period. when i tell my friends about my grow i KNOW there not going to speak a WORD of it to anyone.... because there my FRIENDS.

when it realy comes down to it, if they smoke weed what are the chances there going to tell ANYONE? Realy.... i've heard so many people say "Dont tell anyone, not even ur GF" and if i did THAT i would never have started to grow commercially.

After this sudden stop in selling, I won't call him again.

I would call him, and ask him if HE WANTS TO GROW WEED!!!!! simple, and effective tell him you will show him the set-up, show him how to grow, and pay for 50% of the grow set up BUT you get 50% of EVERYTHING That comes out of the room. this is one of the things i do on top of my 2 main houses.

4 lights in a 10x10 Room CAN Grow up to a LB per Month on a perpetual grow....... i have 3 friends set-up with this method and i get 6-8 OZ's a month from each one......

You just have to be careful, cover the bases and know the person isn't a Rat.

You are the guy doing it so you know the risks. I live by the "don't tell' rule but I run a small grow for personal use so its practical for me.

But I worry about two things:

I might trust the guy with my life, but everybody has at least one friend or spouse they trust and share things with. That person in turn etc..
The other being that if they do deal or grow and get busted, they might be tempted to cop a plea and fink on you.

What's your take on that?

dude never tell him you got it from growing. I always say I got it from a cousin in BC, you should have said you get it from a cousin from cali if you're an american

Anytime the gent I worked for got to suspicious about someone he would buy a small fm bug from me, plant it in their house, and have his cousins take turns staying in the area listening in on an fm radio. Their short range, and battery power doesn't let them stay powered that long, but he did manage to figure out 1 of his 'friends' was planning a kickdoor in his house. I don't necessarily suggest that, if someone catches you planting a bug their going to auto think your working for the pigs, despite the fact that they have better hardware, but it got him out of 1 kickdoor incident.

DAMN Good advice to go with covering the bases.

When Suspicion arises, take ALL Necessary precausions .
