Good point. I havent a clue what it costs to set up even a small personal grow op. Equipment costs. chemical costs, seed costs, Electricity Costs, Security costs. |

Some of the best cannabis I have had in years was 1 plant that we started in a flower pot and then transplanted it into an old drywall bucket with some pretty rotten soil filled with small stones. We kept it hidden behind our swimming pool, where no one could see it. We fed it fish emulsion and watered it. That is all we did. We called that one "a science project" and when we harvested it, it was awesome. We took seeds from that one and planted 3 more plants and those are the ones that LEO was kind enough to come in and take off our hands. Those were not budding when they were taken but I did take some cool pics of those before they had to go bye-bye with the nice cop.
I think if it were legal and you were allowed to grow for personal use, there would be little if any cost. Of course a 5 bedroom home with 50 plants in each room might be stretching it for personal use and then I could see some costs involved. Security and a gas-powered generator might be in order.
I would love to grow again, but too afraid of consequences. I am too old and scared to go to jail. |

seed cost, nothin. if you have good bud, take the seeds from that.
security cost, if it's legal what are you so damed scared of?
chemical cost. how many chemicals do you need if you're growing inside, quit trying to poison your plant. |

380$ an ounce!  Really(if I didn't do a mistake calculating, it's 10 euros/gram)  .That's because I'm from the northern Europe, we don't have Mexico nearby...That's why we have to mix it with tobacco or other stuff. |

Welcome to the forum. Why would you "dilute" it?
I prefer "Maximum Strength" just like the good pharmaceutical Kompanies have taught me too.  |

the tobacco mix is common for joints and it does help conserve weed since you don't need to roll as much to even fill a joint. thats how my dad gets down a gram can last 3 joints with him maybe 4
i don't mix at all, hate tobacco.
back on topic
when someone says 'money doesn't grow on trees' i have to disagree.  |

I'm used to smoke pot with my friends, we just roll a joint, drag a hit and hold it in lungs while passing it to a friend it may sound stupid or poor, but man, it's 380$ an ounce! Of course, if we use a bong, we smoke it pure |

| myself, personally, do not smoke weed unless it has come from somewhere in canada. and thats just because its cheaper because it doesnt have to travel half the world to get to me and because of that i can buy a Quarter ounce for $60 of what i believe and have been told is grade A weed. no it isnt any of that A++ stuff, but with my $60, i can be high for about 1-2weeks easily, depending on if i share a lot of it or not. |
