Trying to dig out of a big hole

[HookedonPonics]

Just curious, what does a kg go for out in aussie? If its high you might do just fine. Just find a grower whos successful on here at a similiar level and try to replicate his grow to the T. Dont be scared to ask questions, ppl here love to help.

OGkushistein I was budgeting per week not per month. But good to know that you think it will only cost about $50 a month per 1000 watt light. Hopefully in a couple of years I'll be able to say amen to turning my life around as well.

If I break any rules of this site I'm sorry just let me know which rule I've broken and I won't break it again
HookedonPonics depends on which city you go to and who you know etc etc not sure on a kg price but for a quarter of a ounce I pay $80-$100 that's retail have never been able to find out wholesale price. How about you what is normal over there.

hey buddy. ok so my rooms are measured by feet (stupid Americans:asshat:)
and you say that a quarter cost 80-100 retail? and you dont know whole sell prices? then you have no way of getting off said trees to increase funds? IMHO....and i have dealt many a year.... you dont know prices you will get fucked some way by someone. i hope im not being to blunt cuz i tend to be sometimes but bro there is aspects of this game you can jump into new like growing for instance. it may be tricky but people have grown weed with close to nothing and had a crop. might smoke/smell like shit but they have it. getting the weed offloaded is a whole other story. thats when the actual stigmata of the "drug world" comes into play. they class it here along with heroin and meth and what not so to get it sometimes you deal with junkies/dealers of other drugs, and people will rob, shoot, stab, or kill for it because it can fetch money like every other drug. be careful man and i think you ought to look at this from outside the box. no offence but you might not be cut out for this life. i do wish you the best and idk much but would share what i do and/or point you to someone here that ive seen help in said areas. good luck and dont let me squash you grow dream but do take it into consideration man. at least in my area growing and selling are way different.:oldman:

Indeed. I'm a 'simple' homegrower, and I was beaten and robbed. They were quite clear, they wanted the weed. Of course they stole whatever else they could. As long as there's a black market, and there is still quite a strong black market, this situation will exist.

We in the US can't really say what power will cost, especially if we're using US $ and you're using AU $.

ive been on both ends of the gun Sea. i get it. and maybe it was karma that got me but either way the black market does contribute to people having ill fates with this plant.

I'd like to follow up on burn4me.
While it is great to have well known contacts that can move your product, consider this.
If they get popped, you shouldn't expect them to protect you.
Use them to learn the business and develop other contacts with degrees of separation from you.
Be a ghost, and keep secrets to yourself.
Make it hard work for the police to catch you and they will put their efforts elsewhere.
The entire question here is driven by profit, so this is the most important aspect if your information/ skill needs (aka ignorance).
It sounds to me like you are able to think clearly and plan, so be too smart to catch.
Smart and lucky is best.

i get it. build barriers between you and joe blow. but as for anything to do with illegal matters such as this in most areas depending on laws of that region that is #1 rule. keep your mouth closed. while some choose to ignore this to save their ass, i never expect ANYONE to keep closed. maybe thats how i was raised but in those cases EVERYONE is suspect. like i said i get it. speaking from personal experience. even the closest person can bring you down. for instance my cousin (raised by my mother, so more like a brother) turned and told for lesser time. so yes there should be as many "layers" between you and your "offloading measures" as you can get.
but the fact remains it seems as if connections arent there for him so how does he plan to turn a profit? thats basically what i was getting at.

Had writing alot but then decided to just keep it short. Only in time will I know how things turn out. Hopefully I'll be able to come back to this site and do a grow dairy but for now I think I'll go back to just being a observer on this site.

It's like consulting with an attorney, I can assure you that they never tell you what you *want* to hear. Not the good ones, at least. :)

I've been robbed 3 times now. The last one made me spend the money to get cameras and an alarm system through the building... Which is a fortress. No way in without getting through 2 steal doors

I don't think you should be posting that type of shit..Karma will get you even worse for being the bad ass who thought it was cool to post about doing some dirt....I'm sure there are others who have been there done that but you don't see them talking about it...

:stop:while i do see your point i never glorified that life. i simply stated i know how it feels both ways. being that it was stated already, no one said shit else about it, and the fact that i didnt go on and on about the subject should show you it was not a gloating issue or me looking for cool points bro.
but it is what it is and your opinion is just that.......YOURS!
good day sir:cigar:

I disagree. I see it as a confession of the type that cleanses. It's hard to make that sort of confession and take personal responsibility, let's not kick someone for doing something so hard.

Pounds of indoor go for $3200-4000. Outdoor $1600-3200 depending on quality.

Budget for two tents 1.2x1.2m. 1x400 hps & 1×600 hps lights. Fans & ducting. Carbon filter. Miscellaneous like extension cords etc. Medium. Power costs approx 40c kwh. About $6-7 a day for this set up.

Go with canna bio and you wont need a pH or EC meter just feed on the low side. Like 1/4 or 1/2 strength.

Figure on yielding 12 oz per 600w every 3 months conservatively. And you wont be growing Dec, Jan, Feb.

Your looking at $3000 before you harvest anything including power.

Watch out for rental inspections and have a plan to stash everything when they occur.

Cops will get the real estate to let them in if you get a "knock and talk".

Good luck mate. :)
