Compensation from patients

[resinhead]

After thinking it through more thoroughly, i guess dispensaries wouldnt be open if people didnt want meds at 20 a gram. I'll admit, I've paid it myself... more than once. I was'nt complaining at the time, because i knew that grams of "dro" in big cities go for that price. I was awestruck by being able to read a menu, and see the lab results of most of the strains. That feeling I had when walking out of the door after purchasing my first "legal" bud was indescibable! I just hope soon we ALL see 10 dollar a gram top shelf bud.

I try to stick around $5/g for my patients no matter the quantity ordered.

Around here cargivers just charge $20 1/8 , to there patients, A caregiver can sell to there patient.

i don't know ONE caregiver who would take $20 per 1/8. I get 250 per zip. Free bubble hash and butter is given away. I use the trim and that's my gift to the patients. Plus I give my roaches away to people who can't afford meds.

I would never take all this risk for 160 an onion. That's crazy talk...

 

[DaleRoberts]

$45 a 1/8 are you crazy, maybe in a non medical state, or a disspesary...

here in michigan it's $20 or less to there pateint or $25 to a card holder. shit, look on craigslist, they are selling it for $180 oz to anyone with a card, so they probaly only charge there patient $100 per Oz.

$500 per month in power and nute for 12 plants, 4 month grow time = $2000, 4 oz per plant = 48 oz = $41.66 per oz, now if they can grow good they can get 8-12 oz of a plant esspsally in hydro. so that makes it more like $20 per OZ.


so $160 per Oz is over $5000 in profit with only 4 ox per plant . how much money you trying to make?

If you're willing to work that way more power to you. As for me....ill do it my way without any guilt for accepting 250
per zip.

How do you guys pay your taxes when you make so much money.

 

[Red1966]

compensation comes from knowing i helped them be a little more at ease with what is bothering them . its not always about the money

The salesman at the hydro store insists on money tho.

Man, this is one of those issues where people just need to do their thing and not worry about others. Kinda like gay marriage.... you may not approve of it, but you need to mind your own fucking business anyway and leave it be.

 

[Red1966]

theres plenty of ways to make money without hustling off of patients.to each there own

Most growers aren't independently wealthy. They need money to grow. Electricity, nutes, you name it. And they deserve to be paid for their labor. There is nothing wrong with making a living off growing.

 

[Red1966]

The short answer is yes, you can be compensated for your time and costs. The price point you decide upon needs to be worked out between you and your patient(s). Every situation is different.

I think he wants to know what limits the state puts on it.

do a little reseasrch on ghandi. might be surprised at what ya actually find out.....ghandi vs hitler?? take a closer look

Didn't Ghandi and Hitler have some sort of pact with each other?

 

[medical/420]

why go to work, when you can sit at home and grow some plants and pull in 6 digits a year.

I know you gotta make money, but 45 a 1/8. that is $360 a Oz x 72 plants at 4 oz each. do 2 crops a year and you would be set

I made 67000 last year. My wife made 32k. I think I made 12k off meds, after nutes and electric I'd say around 10k. So the way I figure it the government can suck it if they think I should pay 1 cent more in taxes. People make more off eBay sales and don't pay a dime, and thats with ebay being their only source of income.

Lets not forget the fact that when/if Leo beats my door down one day I'm gonna have to shell out thousands to prove I'm legal. I bet you when I do I won't get my equipment back and have to buy it all over again! I'd say its an even exchange. So fuck all that mr nicey nice save the world type nonsense.
