How much would you pay for a clone?

[lokes]

WOW! I could only get thru the first page. I am truly blessed with a collective of friends, (many on this site) who gift more genetics than I can handle.
But..if i had to respond, I'd simply say it boils down to simple economics.
Sure I'd pay a mil for a cut, if I could make 2 back in donations from my patients.
Standard and Poors-101.

 

[lokes]

Thats true
Dude said only blooms 16 plants. Hes not pumping out warehouses of 25k+. Right?
So maybe the smallest he does is ozs to friends and qps and up for work...whatever/however with that set up hed still be able to recoup his investment of a measley $100 with a higher quality end product that he could realistically request higher donations (haha) for.

I understand about saftey concerns. But no risk no reward.
Hes already growing as it is
edit: and he said he sells a little too... so imo he's not going beyond the scope of what he's already got going on as it is.

WORD!
Don't fight the Skull.

Yeah there's a rumor that Dr. Greenthumb paid $25,000 for his g13.
Mother fucker's charging $200for two seed...
The only way you could possibly justify that is by trying to convince people it came from a "rare clone only" strain. Give me a break (kit kat bar....sorry

Hehe, in the Bay Area (not all) they wouldn't buy our $25k weed, cause it aint purple.

Sad but true.

(don't worry, there's some good peeps on IC gonna fix that. We just need to get krunch on board now. LOL) OH!

well no word yet

well no word yet

was a busy night at the job so no one was able to speak to anyone really but i'll find out eventually and let you guys know. im kinda excited to know what he comes back to me with if anything at all. last time we spoke though seems that they guy just might keep them for self if he cant get rid of em for what he wants.

well now that i am in the fray of the discussion and its pretty much booming im all in!!

@greyskull - i dont even bother to reach out to ppl at work anymore since its not worth it, and because i grow i dont and honeslty cant put myself out there like that. when your dealing with ppl that are out to get you how they can then you realize that they will do what they can to get you into whatever trouble they can. job is female dominant and anyone who works with alot of females knows that those motherfuckers can talk like a busted faucet, so the job is a no no.

other thing is when i did try i wanted to sell a pound or two which was cool, ive gotten up to 1lb 3/4 out of my 16 plants and thats without the tricks, so imagine what could be done with a lil bending and twisting! i sold an ounce once and i heard how good it was but, i hold smoke for no one so when dudes ppl's came sniffin around again i was out, but waiting on the next round to come in.

As far as this growing thing, its always been my wish and intention to try and start a collective where we can trade cuts/clones and the like. i wanted to do it on here but thats not gonna happen, tried it once, the cat disappeared on me. security is a factor for all growers so i guess for a guy to constantly be changing his phone number is just the norm for some. . . i dont want to live like that honestly, so needless to say my lil 16 does me fine, i can use smaller bags and get 20 in there.

but many of the opinions expressed on here leads me to really understand another aspect of why legalization is necessary. . . that money man, that money has to be taken out of this thing and pronto! it is what it is and were gonna suffer for it. yes YOUR an individual but i am thinking of the whole, and yes i am one of those that one day wants to be able to come home from a friends house after having smoked, with a couple of clones while said friend is planting the clones ive just given him/her and not have popo's fido sniffin at my ball sack tryin to find out "where the stuff is at cause massa signaled to sniff at this one."

in the end its all about choices, if you see something that you think is worth it then buy it, if you have something you think has substantial value then by all means peddle your wares but just because something "is" doesnt mean that, thats what it should be.

25k for a clone?! c'mon man, that shit is ridiculous in more ways than one whether youve got it like that or not. and if you ask me the whole thing is 30% strain and 70% grower and you guys know what i mean. ive had some bagseed that made me forget shit or think that i was floating and some elite strains that didnt do anything but make the dutch taste better and get my bongs dirty.

some of you know what thats like, the smell is coming through the bag! the keif in your grinder is so bountiful and pungent! and you cant help but think "my god, please let me find a seed of this shit!!" and that first pull says it all, this cat just got you for $50.

i would love to get on my virtual soapbox and start spewing messages of reasons to be grateful and why we must overgrow the planet, but most of you guys are gonna get your gwop before any of that shit happens so it is what it is, and i aint hatin at all yo do you, but ima do me and ima make sure it doesnt cost me a dime nor the ppl i deal with! to each his own

respect!

 

[stonescafe]

depends what the clone was really!!!!!!!

 

[Greyskull]

How much would you pay for a clone?

1.75 is a lot of pot to be sitting on for pers! Thats got to last 4-6 months of heavy burning... Maybe/probably longer unless you burn 24/7. How do run out haha

Shoots i thought you wouldve been flipping every 60-70 days getting fresh flow but do your thing

And i know all about working w women... Of the 20 employees im one of 2 men

Id still say buy the bubba if it is going to be just for pers. You already got offered the plant youve been in discussion about price... Bubba is a wonderful plant to grow and even better to smoke i never get sick of it if you have time to veg her for a while shell reward you w amble booty of top shelf buds yumm
Thats why i risked a shitload getting her and a few choice others to maui...
Good luck

 

[krunchbubble]

i guess it depends on how accessible clones are in your area, and how bad you want the strain. i remember the first time i bought clones. they were $50 each and unrooted, had to buy a minimum of 100. this was in 93-94 i think....

i have bought and sold single clones for thousands and thousands of dollars and would do it again for the right strain....the real bluedot

right before i got busted i offered someone $2500 for a clone of Lommpa's headband and he refused.....

an icmag friend gave it to me after i got busted.....

dont get me wrong, i hear what your saying and your are more than right! lol i view growing the same way drug dealers view sales, 5 will get you 10, 10 will get you 20. that one plant would become lbs!! your know how we do .

with regard to what your saying, yeah, HELL YEAH!! if this cat has a original strain/cut of the BUBBA KUSH that your speaking of then the wife will just have to be mad about the bills cause i'd have to have it, plain simple , end of discussion and it in turn becomes worth the financial risk but from my experience with other growers most cats out here are just looking for loot and they know alota people that smoke so they figure why not, and how hard can it be.

see for you im sure there is some sort of passion there, along with the financial; since i can speak for myself the passion is definitely there and the loot is a sidebar, but for this cat hes tryin to "get his hustle on" and that type of attitude brings attention that i dont like, not true of all cases/ppl but as you know security first

Elite Connoisseur Clones!!!!!

Elite Connoisseur Clones!!!!!

Hi everyone!! Nice Spring weather this year!!! Stress Test ....You have it down dude!!! We think alike in regards to CLEAN/bug free high grade CLONES for the medical community .....
I have a question off subject???? Is there a need for Elite male clones/
pollen??? Or maybe a Male clone /pollen bank? Discuss amongst yourselves....

i think there is a definite need for pollen of elites, elite meaning strong genetic traits of course. i would think that if one were to get a strong s1 female along with some strong/original male genetics it may be possible to strengthen the line of a strain that way as opposed to always completely relying on the genetics of the female.

me and me son are gonna go for a walk now so i'll be back lattah, peace yall

 

[paladin420]

Iv'e sold m for$100's mostly it seems to depend on the person recieving. Just set 12 for a patient (elites immho) no charge.Not my patient.

 

[Stress_test]

I've been thinking about this topic and some of the comments peeps have made about selling clones for the last couple of days and it crossed my mind that a lot of people have some totally fucked up concepts about pot and clones.

I have to look at things from a realistic perspective though and it occurs to me that everybody who has an issue with selling/buying clones is a complete fuckin bigot.

Consider for a moment that I have invested thousands of hours into learning how to grow and propagate mj. I have thousands of hours and probably tens of thousands of dollars in educating myself so that I can clone repeatedly with what appears to be exceptional success, if you read these forums and all the infirmary and cloning threads. Much of my knowledge has been derived from trial and error which as you ALL know is usually expensive.

Last fall I tore down my flower room and converted everything to mother plants, veg and nursery for cloning. I don't flower any plants anymore. All my rooms are set up entirely for breeding and propagation.

Now I would venture a bet that my setup is unique for most members here, because I don't technically "grow my own" anymore. At least not for now.
But my point is that 99% of the members here do bud their plants and sell the bud as product. I don't. I sell/trade clones.

My expenses are actually higher now than they were when I flowered my weed, but in the end I no longer have the bud to sell/trade to the dispensaries offset the expense.

The reason I changed over to cloning was because none of the dispensaries had any decent strains and had shitty weed. So I worked a few deals with the dispensary owners to trade clones for meds and allow them to sell/trade my elite clones to their other patients in order to offset and compensate my own expenses.

The end result is that 7 dispensaries in WA state now have clones for 12 elite/medical grade strains that are in perfect health to offer to their patients. I have access to medical grade mj pretty much anytime I need it.

But the benefits for everybody concerned continue to stack up. Thousands of mmj patients in WA state now have access to my elite/med grade strains as well. The dispensaries and co-ops are able to offer their patients healthy clones of proven genetics that are guaranteed to be the strains they are paying for that are in perfect health. Without nearly the risk of bringing home mites, aphids, thrips, gnats, PM, or any of the numerous other pests and viruses that we all have experienced from buying clones.

So I have arrived at this conclusion:
Fuck all of you and anybody else who has a problem with selling or buying genetics whether the genetics be clones or seeds.

I never wanted to sell weed or be a drug dealer. I provide healthy, proven, medical grade mmj to thousands of WA state patients who otherwise would would have to accept lower quality strains.

 

[Stoner4Life]

if it's a breeder you know & his weed rocks your ass off hard then the sky's the limit if he is actually pulling it off the mother plant that stoned you.


if it's any other situation then 'buyer beware'.......

 

[Darth Fader]

You gotta burn a bowl to judge for yourself how much you'd like the cut. But if it's "Hot Damn!", then $100 is well worth it IMO.

 

[MegaHermie]

you never know, i've seen 10k offered for a cut of two strains and the dude said no..

. . .what your talking about is from a medical standpoint and i get that and since ive started this thread ive noticed the opinions expressed and have found that, as with people, there is a vast variety of growers and they all have their own reason/abilities/costs and expenses as to why they grow. we all have been bit by the growing but for numerous reason in countless ways and no matter who you are there is some one out there that you can benefit from and can benefit from you in whatever way that can happen.

the aspect or "temperament" of this thread is more so along the lines of the novice or smaller hobby grower and those that stopped by are mostly hobby type growers, you can tell that just by reading the flow of the thread. most say "nah you should trade" while others say " fuck that make a bitch pay" (lol) while yet and still some say " well it depends" and for this thread i dont really see a consensus being reached just thought sharing and thats cool, hell thats what my intention was to begin with!

please folks remember, we are all from different walks of life 'round here. you have your situation and i have mine. some of you may be in one position but at times may "find" yourself in another when dealing with a grower outside of your original realm, which begs to question: do we judge another grower because they sell for profit? i say no because that grower is going to have to find others that want to grow for profit aswell since that is her/his realm so it is what it is . . . for them.

do we say that the hobby grower is wasting their time with dealing with such small amounts? nah you cant say that cause its the middle men that are fucking up the game (this one is directly for me btw) between ppl that have quality herb/cannabis to sell/trade and those that want/need quality to have/purchase.

things arent shitty out here but becasue we are who we choose to be things are what they are.

Stress_test- brother/sister, imo you are living one of the dreams ive had ever since i started growing. i work in a hospital and see/deal with sick ppl every day. some patients no about cannabis some dont. most are still allowing the propaganda to rot away at their brains so they end up suffering in the long run , hell up to the end most of the time. now can i say that everyone on here would sell cannabis/clones to someone that they knew was in fact sick with a disease or ailment that cannabis could help? no, not everyone BUT im sure if you started that thread you'd be shocked at the responses you would get. for me the pain stung a lil more when i actually had cannabis in abundance but thats not the place to ask a sick person if they are willing to give cannabis a try in order to help or ease with their ailments/pain; i gotta family and a 2 month old besides the other 3 teenagers so uh yeah i kinda need this job right now, lol.

thread topic/question: "would you sell the herb or would you give the herb?" and of course, as threads go, when you read the small synopsis of the thread thats where the question would be and the discussion takes off like a rocket.

what im trying to say to you and those that come upon this thread is that this is not the place to look for compassion but more so an ideal towards a specific topic. some ppls answers are bathed in compassion while other may seem a lil less caring but would tell you that "the question was misleading" (lol) once you approached them.

its all good though, for those of you that are dealing with MediCanna i say keep up the good work for those of you that dont i ask that if you see someone help someone (the truly sick of course) so that the light we have as growers can shine just a lil bit brighter.

on another note, the dude hasnt come back to me yet. hes a financial backer and what i need to do is one day visit his friend that is actually growing and maybe have a powwow of some sort so he and i can talk, since its actually he and i that are one in the same

I'll start off with an apology for my shitty attitude in a number of my responses the last couple of days.
I was a little on edge and still a little bit nervous. The DEA has hit 6 dispensaries in the Spokane area this week. I supplied a large portion of clones to those dispensaries which were all lost as well as my cloners, lights, etc...
Now my dealings with them were pretty secure on my end but now I'm getting reports the the DEA took all the records as well, which is supposed to be protected. But if any of them kept records on my clones then it could potentially put me on the DEA hitlist as well.
Right now out of the 40 dispensaries in the Spokane and surrounding areas; only 2 have contacted me that they weren't hit and are still operating. Both are asking for more clones than I can logically supply.

So yeah I know what you mean about everybody runs their operation in the manner that best fits their needs.
