Maine. THE WAY LIFE SHOULD BE. enough said
You actually got calls on jobs in Lansing? lol... I looked for work there for two years while sucking the unemployment teet. Fell victim to GM's bullshit a couple years ago and got downsized out the door. Moved back to the pinkie area and got my old high school job washing dishes. Seems like a lot of folks around here are still at those old high school jobs. Lifers I think we used to call them. he he... Nice and quiet up here though. Miss Lansing - the dispensary in old town (danny's) advertises on the radio that they'll pay $4000 a pound. Even the raggy ass bullshit immature buds - they sell the shit out of it for $400 a zip.
Hydroworld got robbed? No big surprise, it wasn't a very tight shop to begin with. Last time I was in there the big ogre selling the bud was strapped with a 45 on his side for the world to see. Seems as if they were making so much money they'd have a guy behind that dark drape with a shotgun waiting for something stupid to happen instead of a strapped dealer. Danny might be a bit of a joke, but you gotta admit, the guy's got balls opening the store like he did. The first few days there was an unmarked cop car parked across the street photographing the ppl coming and going.
Haven't heard about any clubs getting busted here in Michigan. I go to the bay medical collective in Traverse sometimes. Overpriced but the quality is starting to improve. What's up with the CPL? Tasted like a SSH and had a distinct cat piss odor, was curious about it's lineage as I've been hearing about a cat piss pheno of ssh for a couple years now. Insanely priced but it was the best stuff I've gotten from there yet. They did have some "Chocolate Thunder" that was really good too, harsh but packed quite the punch.
As for the local police, I am just getting setup to get growing again. Hoping to be able to flip some overages to make up for our lovely job market here in the NW - just don't want any problems...
Sorry to get off topic, just like talking about the local scene here...
maine is closer to the high paying markets...boston new york new jersey PA RI man theres just so much demand out there. michigan has chicago and a few other rust belt cities but those are full of working class beer drinkers not 20 year old pot smoking party animals that make up all the colleges in the NE area....plus the 99 plant thing sounds awesome...just like california.
the winters sound pretty tough but as long as you got a ton of northface jackets, heaters, and a snow mobile sounds like its doable. already got a 4x4 truck too...
i was thinking about moving to maine because its so cheap but my current mortgage and all my people are in california so its kinda hard to move....i feel like im fucking stuck here
what about for a black guy ?? maine heavy on the salt, light on the pepper ?? diversity check here...i like a nice blend of people ...
this is what I'm talking about. Real knowledge from experience. I heard elsewhere that 99 plants and you're probably getting probation. It sounded like bullshit to me but you never know.Don't kid yourself with the 99 plant minimum..Anyone caught with a lb of finished product its automatic jail time. I have friends born and raised in Maine and most grow..Peeps are misled by that 99 plant figure.Med patients(I am one) are currently limited to six plants...and 2.5 oz finished product..good luck
Also, I grew up halfway between Bos and NYC. I know the game here.The more weed that makes it here from Cali and Colo..the harder it is to get prices we used to get..believe that..
Geeze...armed guys showing off their heat, cops watching, the whole nine?
I prefer dealing with hippies and college kids who call me "bro," haha.
Definitely sad to hear the so-called legal market is that...err, shady.
If I ever felt I needed to a gun to mess around with a few ounces or even a few pounds, I'd change careers.
Different strokes I guess.
Reading that makes me realize that I'd probably be getting in over my head and into some unnecessarily negative situations if I were to change it up. Prob best to stay put.
Fucked up. But then, I've never had more than 2 people in the world know I was a grower. I guess if you're nickel and diming all over town, you get whats coming to you.i know of three different GROUPS of 5-10 to 20 people that dont do shit but rob people... They find out who grow who deals and watch ya for a week and then kick in your door... if they dont find shit they come back and do it while your home... lansing in not a safe place to live if this is the game you want to get into... The poorer the city the worst the crimes peroid....
id go to maine get a place out in the country or go to michigan country michigan is beautiful and can be cheap... however i dont say its ever safe....
