completely agree. Selling it then having to spend money on it doesn’t make sense. Not to mention, growing to sell in a place that’s legal is one thing. Doing it in a place where it’s illegal will lead you down a dark path to an underworld you probably don’t want to be mixed up in. To be able to comfortably grow and sell in an illegal market you need to be properly close and friendly with all sorts of shady people to build a level of trust and reputation within the game.. you need a network to supply to and multiple contacts should one get busted within the chain. You can’t rely on supplying just one person basically. On a large scale grow op you need a way to either launder the money or find ways to spend it without causing suspicion by authorities that you’re leading a luxury life you can’t afford.. because then in court if you got caught you would have to explain where all the money came from for the nice new cars and fancy electrical goods and nice clothes when you earn below the poverty line. You also gotta remember that by becoming a new grower to sell and supply you’re going to be treading on someone else’s toes... someone who is already established - you have to be trusted and well connected to avoid any potential repercussions.. for example, I knew a grower who was selling.. he sold a shit load of weed I’m talking KG’s of the stuff. A lot of rival dealers I knew at the time wernt happy he had come in on the scene but knew he was sound and couldn’t touch him because his brother was one of the biggest cocaine dealers in the area.Ya also need trust. You need to trust that the people you’re selling too wouldn’t rat on you in a heartbeat if they got caught and needed a deal with the feds.
not saying this to put the original poster off selling it. Some people love the game. Some people love the thrill of it all. Some people will happily do the time for selling - and live a life devoted to the game. But it’s not worth it ultimately in my opinion .. id rather not go to jail lol I like my hot dinners and chicken wings, and having a joint and being able to watch Netflix... go out to bars see friends go to work etc ahaha
