Friend and I grow op...how to split up harvest?

Ok here is the deal. A friend and I are in a grow operation together. Very small. Here is how it went down:

My partner bought a seed pack from some seed bank overseas. Got a dozen seeds (2 seeds of 6 different strains) for around $75 US dollars. He took a White Widow feminized seed from the pack and sprouted it and grew it to a 3 week old seedling.

After its first 3 weeks of age, I took the plant (on October 20th) and started to flower it. Kind of a quasi-12/12 from seed thing. They plant is doing fantastic. LST, Triple Phosphate nutes, under 200 watts of CFL (80% red 20% blue spectrums). Super dense nugs, super hairy and crystals/trichomes abound.

The plant will continue to flower until it gets chopped and dried here at my place, which I'm guessing will be just after Christmas.

My question is, what is a fair way to divide up the harvest? Although irrelevant, the plant will probably yield 1/2 - 3/4 of an ounce.

Is 50 / 50 split fair? I think I deserve more because I assumed the risk for the majority of the plants life. He just gave me one seed from his $75 12-pack. Thats what...a $5 seed? And three weeks of his time?
Compared to my electric bill (although marginal...probably dosen't matter), and the risk.

I need some help because I have to talk to him about it. What do you guys think?

50/50 split. Should have cloned it out before 12/12 and then whatever you did with the clones could have been yours to keep. He assumed risk buying the seeds and you assumed risk growing the plant. No reason to piss off a friend over a small amount of MJ.

Yea if you said it was 50 50 from the start then it should stay. I'm sure your friend used that to his advantage, he knew that he could use the "hey I bought the seed oversees taking a big risk" which is really nothing, so you grow it and not say anything other than "Cool". I was was in a similar situation to yours. I gave my buddy seed, equipment and everything, then thought about the split, and what might happen once everything was done doh, needless to say, I went to pick up all my equipment like 3 days laters :smile: Not a great idea to grow with another guy unless you know you both have exactly the same resources put into it and know about growing.
