if you think that the lcb will just let you you might be in for a surpisehey buds! It's legal in washington now and i am applying for 2 level three (up to 30k sq' each) producer licenses. I will also be applying for a processor license and i'll post another thread on that. I am working on my business plan and doing a ton of research and right now i'm working on how many plants i can grow. Keep in mind the 30k is canopy and does not include equipment or other storage. I've been considering many options, 30gal pots too expensive, tires too messy although i love tires for gardening, soil filled trenches waste of soil, black garbage bags with holes maybe, raised beds too expensive. I have come to the thought of digging holes 3' round and 3' deep into the ground. This will not impede the root system as the roots can grow into the natural soil, is cheap, and the holes can be filled with the medium of my choice. Now i am trying to figure how many plants i can grow with this arrangement. Considering a rectangle 100' x 300' i can place these holes in rows 3' apart but this only gives me 666 plants. I'll probably stagger them but is this enough room? I plan on growing almost exclusively this year g-13 strain and i expect a yield of 2lbs per plant. Any help is appreciated as i am building my business plan now to find funding. Thanks!
also, according to lcb:
- the number of retailer licenses is limited; if too many apply, a lottery will be held for the eligible applicants.
- getting a growers producers or retailers license doesn’t guarantee that you can operate your business. Local laws may apply. Lcb may issue a license even if the local authority has a marijuana moratorium in place.
- i-502 also limits the size of the canopy grown by all marijuana producers to 2 million square feet. If the qualifying applications for producers exceed that limit, each producer license issued will have the square footage reduced proportionately.

LOL..no I'm retired........now I spend my time sitting around under a shady tree..........Ha! Looking for work???? Yeah, good idea. I already have two professionals going to work for me (brothers) and countless friends in the field but what I need is a specialist in large outdoor grow preferably in my area, and I have ads out already. Both my guys already told me they're strength is indoors so hiring a professional consultant in large outdoor grow ops would certainly look good in my business plan too. I'll do some searching today. Thanks for the advice!
it only matters how many of us apply...this will decide how big you are allowed to grow.... the more growers the less sq footage per license...there will be only 2 million sq ft available....100,000 people apply or 20,000 apply will make a difference as to the sq footage per license
Can't find your washintonmancave or iwasbornwild??? I did however find your "wall thing" as well as your name, etc. By exposing who you are and where you are, you are opening up yourself to every ripper who prowls the Internet. Security is great but these idiot rippers nowadays don't care about security, they just come in strapped to the hilt and don't give a shit about anything including life. Also realize with 20+ employees it only takes one to get pissed at you and look out. Good luck and be careful.
you need to do multiple strains
Come to think about it, do you have to be a wash resident to get a permit?.......I could do some real damage with 60,000sg ft!?!![]()
If your growing under the medical permits then those ideas will no go as you need to have the grow sealed off and bug free so if you use a dirt floored grow area your open to quality control issues that will not pass inspection. You can get tons of bugs and such issues. Your gonna wanna grow soiless or hydro of some sort. If your going for this size right off top then money should be no real issue if it is you need to start smaller then expand while making sure to not take on more then you can a handle or it's just a waste of time. basic figures here in Illinois basically mean a start up producer on large scale will need at least $500,000 to be in complete compliance and to maintain medical grade grows.
