Growing Pot or Mushrooms (relatively small scale)
#18790421 - 09/02/13 03:16 PM (10 years, 4 months ago) |

I was just curious as to what people think is the most profitable of the two to grow.
Ive personally done both. Ive also done them both at the same time but only like one mono and 8 plants.
I want to start growing again but can't decide what I want to do.
I personally LOVED growing pot. Its so peaceful and feels so rewarding. I personally dont like dealing with all the jars and all the sudden molds and keeping shit spotless with shrooms but it definitely is rewarding and fun.
What do you guys think?

I think most of us aren't in it for the money.
I think a greenhouse of weed could yield more with less participation from the grower than an equal SF space for mushrooms. But what the hell do I know?
I voted STAL.

Silly question, weed.
Plus, most people smoke a lot more weed than they eat mushrooms, so it wouldn't be hard to get rid of large amounts of weed.

Weed.I was making at least $350's A WEEK when i used to grow and distribute. It's THE most awesome and beautiful plant to grow. The satisfaction is of the charts. And your stoners are more common, i mean , cmon 
- Though I might add. MJ need loads more space, and is more difficult in concealing than mushrooms if it's needed. But you probably knew that..

Most people aren't but dont lie to yourself to think the vast majority of people who are growing do it solely for themselves and do not sell or make a profit whatsoever while doing it for the work they put in..
Ive given away ounces and oucnes of shrooms to friends but have still made money where or when I needed to.

To you, yes maybe a silly question. But personally I can yield 10-12 oz of shrooms very easily form a single mono over 3 flushes and growing them is ridiculously fast if you G2G and what have you. 6 Monos - 60 oz per grow and by the time those tubs are done you usually have 6 more already ready to go. So you are basically yielding pounds of shrooms a month or two whereas pot you are always "hopefully" yielding a certain amount and lenghts of grows are much longer plus the work harvesting and curing.

Thats cool, but can you get rid of 60 oz of mushrooms a month?
Even if you could, and you got caught with 60 oz of dried mushrooms, you will be seeing the inside of a cage for a very long time.
Weed is much safer and much more people are going to buy weed.

Weed cuz it always sells (and to more poeple) shrooms don't.

I think, it depends on where you live and whether you can get a medical card or not.

Mushrooms are easier to grow, and they are worth more.
But like above posters said, it's about love, not money.
I always end up giving mushrooms away, it's that cheap and that easy.

Marijuana is more profitable than mushrooms just because more people do it. However, it takes up a lot of volume compared to other, much more profitable drugs like methamphetamine, heroin and cocaine. If you're fine with high risk + high reward, why not slang hard drugs?

As long as you have trusted distributors in multiple multiple locations, shrooms are more profitable. Short term. With weed tho u can just do everything in one location and its sold quick. Long term.

Do the world a solid and distribute mushrooms. On that note if you can find acid or molly then distribute that. I'm pretty sure dealing isn't allowed to discuss on the forum, not positive, but pretty sure. And on that note why not grow both?

Could grow ephedra species, such as E. Sinica. Not illegal everywhere. Produces ephedrine and pseudo in the plant. Could theoretically extract and process from there. So... Kinda growing meth in your backyard?

I'd say mushrooms... less chance of getting busted. No detectable heat signature, they don't use extra electricity, they don't smell, they're easier to conceal.
