What does it cost you per month to run your grow space?

For me its only the cost of Nutes, water, soil, pesticides, Ph adjusters, fabric grow bags, Mason jars and bubble bags.

So about $350 for a full start and generally lasts me all season. So I'd break that down to $30 per month roughly. Thats 6 plants at a time with 2 grows in the year.


But im outside.

What about your costs? Grow rooms, lights, fans, humidifiers, dehumidifiers, AC and so on?

Startup cost- >$3k.
2- 4'x8' tents/1- 4'x4' tent
2- 1kW hps/2- 600w hps/1- 315w cmh.
2- 8" extraction fans/1- 6" extraction fan/+ accessories...
Plant count= 1- a few hundred Sogged?
Operating costs- around $150-$200 per month if everything is running.

Do you find it is worth it? I cant imagine you would smoke all of that yourself so I have to assume your getting that money back 10 fold.

Also beautiful set up. Jealous over here.

Worth it? Absolutely. I live in a non legal state. I was paying someone else $300-$500 a month to barely support my needs. (Combat vet/PTSD)

I have 2 very close friends who are the only people I sell anything too and it's just enough for their personal use. Which just so happens to be enough to have paid for all of the equipment, and take care of the electric bill each month. I long term store my excess.
Win/Win in my book....

Plus, I can now smoke a 1/4+ a day carefree :)

#1 thank you for your service.
#2 makes total sense. I live in a legal state. We don't sell to each other in my small group of growers. We just trade zips so everyone gets some different strains to smoke.
