Are you planning to hire any time soon?I'm very curious to this because I'm in the process of starting one myself. I finally found the proper investor and has no problem being silent. He already gave me a upfront sum, so I bought 10 acres that has a 2,000sq ft building for a place to live. Having a greenhouse out on the land as we speak so I'm not limited on when I can run. I'll be in Trinidad Colorado so if you're up that way, that would be awesome
I'm also from Baltimore, born and raised by Patterson park
Thank you @Cultivate420, it's he only way to live. I retired from the army at 31 yrs old and could never work for someone else. You hear about all these company's that hire vets but it's hard to believe it's true anymore. So what I'll do is make sure I hire veterans and disabled veterans, so they can still live a normal daily life. Granted I'll hire others also but I can never forget about my brothers and sisters.Are you planning to hire any time soon?
And yes Colorado would be a better option for your investment. If you believe you can, then you can. do not listen to all this negative ass bullshit of people that are too scared to chase their dreams.
I have the thirst to make something out of nothing and that's all you need unlimited desired and faith.
Good answer brother!6 a unit is crazy. That would be for some backyard BS. If you aren't already Growing in CA or you don't have access to big investors, don't waste your time IMO of course.
Oh yea, there are great properties in Colorado. Especially where I found mine in the southeast corner in Trinidad Colorado. Got 10 acres for $500 down and it has running water and electric with a 2,000 sq ft house for me to live. I'll make this happen one way or another. This is my life and wanna help folks change theirsFWIW... I'm not advising you against this. Quite the opposite, actually. I hope you do this, and kill it!
I'm hoping, also, that you do this in Colorado. There are lots of commercial grows operating in the Arkansas valley, with more under construction. Land is cheaper here, and we have water. At 38° N, 4,300' elevation and boasting 300 days of sunshine, conditions are ideal for greenhouse or outdoor grows.
A hundred years ago, this was a thriving farm community. But, as machines replace people, rural population declines. Small farms are consumed by corporations, and our young people move away. An industrial slump had left our community struggling, and cannabis seems to be the answer. Our town population had gone from 836, in 1920, down to 248, in 2015. Now, we are close to 300. New companies came in building and hiring. That put books in our schools and products on our shelves. Construction & labor costs less than it would in Cali, because people here need work, but don't have the outrageous cost of living. Among these, there is a pretty good selection of solid veterans.
A friend of mine is a licensed caregiver, with a 100 plant count. He's a Vietnam veteran, and longtime grower. He tends to be a bit jaded, but he's a wealth of knowledge, when it comes to the "who's, what's, when's & where's" that you need to know around here. I'm sure he could answer any licensing, county ordinance, etc type questions.

Basically I'm saying, you could buy this house on 160 acres for about $450k. You can buy vacant land for less than $300 an acre. It would be more economically feasible to do it here.
Glad to hear that you are reaching out to our beloved vets. and putting good honest hands to work. I am in Denver currently finishing up school and soaking knowledge i would love to talk and hear what you have vision in the cultivation business and if our vision are compatible maybe we can join our efforts.Thank you @Cultivate420, it's he only way to live.

And also just because someone gets an investor doesn't mean they are selling their sole. Most that have really tried this know that it takes a rather large sum of money to get this up off of the ground. After my first year I won't have an investor anymore as it'll be paid back in full.
Are you up near Trinidad by chance @Cultivate420 ? I'd love to talk sometime
Hell yea brother, that's what this is about. Helping those who may not be able to help themselves or are trying to find their way. I'd love to link up with you and talk about both of our visions. We are still in early construction, so we got a bit of time. I'm actually finishing up school as well or I'd already be up there.Glad to hear that you are reaching out to our beloved vets. and putting good honest hands to work.

Have you started construction or are you already gardening?
