Well Green crack Lbs for 4200 where I am and looking for average strain between 3.5-4k. Selling $350 oz you can make money but always better to be the grower and working out costs and what your profit is.

Where do u live?? Here in the Va region, the price has fallen steadily over time. Of course it was just legalized to grow around 4yrs ago.
I distinctly remember the first time there was a steady supply locally of really top shelf indoor.
I was a college soph and it was 1989.
Up until that point the quality was hit and miss. A lb of mexi brick was $1200-$1400 and “skunk” would come around occasionally and fetch $1800.
Then out of the blue the area was introduced to an indoor grown supply of Northern Lights. It was like nothing most of us (young heads) had ever seen. The smell was uncontrollable and its effects were mind blowing.
It’s funny b/c at the time my college roomie happened to be friends w/ the grower’s girlfriend. We had no idea he was growing such a large amount. All we knew is she could bring us a pound every 3 weeks or so and the cost was $3000…..no negotiation.
Overnight the price for a 1/4 bag went to $70 (from $35-40) and the supply could not keep up w/ the demand.
That train rolled on for about 4yrs……and we still didn’t know what type of operation we were dealing with.
Ultimately, someone let the cat out of the bag and the fella that grew this weed was busted.
He had 3 seperate houses w/ full basements and every room was utilized. Hundreds of pounds per month according to the reports and the only way they truly identified the person was by the outrageously high power bills for each house.
I can’t help but wonder if LED lights had been invented and used, if we’d still be getting that bud????
Sorry to digress into that story, but currently a pound of really good indoor might sell for $2000.

I live in NZ so ages away but yeah most growers here grow that top shelf as it is not legal here the price hasn't changed due to an influx of supply and demand ever increases
If that guy had used LED lights would of been a normal household power bill almost

When it's not legal it's generally more expensive due to supply and demand as soon as its able to be taxed and legal in a country supply outweighs demand so price drops here in nz it has not been that way

Yeah, this sounds about right. Recently had my hands on AAA. It went pretty quickly and for a nice ticket of 1600. Not sure how much it's going to the next guy, but it was good.

it comes down to clients and quality. you got people that have money and like fine scotch but a majority of ganja consumers are young and broke. where i live you get 200/zip easy if its the right person and the right product.

very true. Michigan there is a wide gap where you can find something in your price range. 600-1600. Everyone wants the cheaper usually to make more money off of.

Prices landsliding.. I live in chicago and do a lot of work in Indiana and sw michigan. I can get zips of really good shit for 100$ .. it's not even worth my time trimming... I still grow but maybe 4 or 5 lbs a year..no money in it . I mostly buy prerolled joints at 50 or 60 of them for 150$... last me all month.

Oh yeah for sure!.. I make oil for my 76 year old dad… keeps his A1C in check. I got 2 high CBD strains going right now. I may start taking it for body maintenance once it’s done.

You are able to keep the A1c levels in check with CBD oil? Any other specific cannabis you are looking for for that. My buddy has issues with his levels and hes not even 40 yet.

I keep hearing chicago is where it's at. Easier to find folks willing to pay for quality. I have buddy who goes there for like pop up events I guess and he does well. A lot of competition and fancy mylar bags:lol:. Keeps telling me if you can pair the packaging with the quality people will remember you. Might be the problem here in Michigan then hahaha
