So one day you and hubby are going to be woodsmen in Trinity and the next day you're going to be hobnobbing in the Bay?

seems people who grow in Cali dont want more growers there....


I think it's like that in every state, I cringe at the sight of noobs.

@ the OP, if you're not pumping out the primo where you are now I would say you dont have a snow ball's chance in hell at making a living growing herb in cali. I've seen your man post in another thread about his 3 26w cfl grow I'd he's got a long way to go before he could even tread water.

Felony charges for anything above a couple plants/ounces :( Trade-offs huh? :)

Got the bank account up, ready to go, just gotta figure out the next best step!

Will not accept jail-time, stealth and gunstore baby woot woot!!!

so you're worried about felony charges for a couple plant/ounces?
then yes move to cali and bring LOTS of guns! when you get popped they'll throw out the cultivation charges and get you for weapons.
and hit up megayields - less than 2500. a month mortgage in sc is still a good deal imo..
peas, mm

I was thinking have guns so if 5-0 comes a knockin' i'm going out in a blaze of glory! Did you not read my previous post? Incarceration is not an option for me. Edit: I also meant having a lethal airsoft gun, or go balls out with a 70 round AK w bayonet, .45, semi-auto 12ga, ar-15 w grenade launcher, barret .50 cal, landmines, well maybe no landmines, but yea..

Rather die for something, than live for nothing :tiphat:


Will most likely stay east, got big plans n connections here. You guys wanna ship me top notch for 3k a p? I'd resale for 4500 all day, hell Ill take 20 a month, just gotta get to the gun store first HAHA!

I know, I was laughing my ass off. I'd recommend the trinity pines subdivision, bring lots of guns & pitbulls :)

we actually just switched those plants over to flowering. :] we have alot more lights on them and stuff. changed the lights to 12/12. he knows a little bit more about it than i do right now as far as the lighting stuff. he might post something about it on here soon, idk.

Oddly enough, I met this customer at work today who happens to be moving out to CA in pursuit of acting, and jokingly said "I'm gonna grow herb too son!." I encouraged him as he is actually making moves towards his goals.

coincidence, or ?

or........you told a customer at work you were moving to California to grow weed? So you pretty much told him you grow now? genius

Have you ever been to Clearlake? I live near there.

This is a very depressed area, there are very few jobs to be had, and the schools are the worst in the state. Clearlake is anything but clear and stinks in the summertime when the algae takes over. I'd like to get out of here in the next few years myself and move further north.

Try Ukiah, just down hwy 20 and voted one of the best places to live in the country

Just wondering? If California is so wonderful, why do I see so many cars in my state from Ca living here, driving our prices up. There's two of them living on my street!!!!! I think they should stay in California, and leave Oregon alone. Stay down south, it rains here all the time.You'll get moss between your toes and stuff. Everything molds, not a good place to live stay home please. Oh Yeah the weed up here is the worst you'll ever smoke, no sense in coming here, it's always wet.lol:smoweed:

Finally at the end of this thread. Read it from beginning to end. All I can say is, I love you guys. All of you. I've never had plans to move to CA and I don't want to. Esp. after reading this thread! lol In all seriousness, I enjoyed the candor and humor in it. The more I read here, the more I get to know you. I'm a noob at growing. I'm just a recreational user. I know my place. I'm learning one plant at a time. I'm also learning from you who have been doing this for a while now. There is so much information on this site, that my brain has many new wrinkles in it! I look up to you in my own way, but I'll never tell you that ha ha. Thanks for being so fucking kick ass guys/gals!

Just some advice for other noobs. When asking questions, keep shit real. Don't be somebody you aren't. Don't muddy realism with hopes. For God sakes, listen to what others have said whilst using a grain of salt. Make your own decisions and live with them. Go all the way or don't go at all. If you fail, go all the way again. One day you may get it right. Peace everyone.

I think the best place for you at this point would be city-data.com. Good luck with the move. I hope everything goes against the odds and works out well for you and your hubby. :dance013:
