Grower payment in %? HELP!!

[LetitGrow805]

Does anyone have any idea what percentage the grower should take from the earnings of a yield?

My partner and I have it worked out where after expenses we're splitting the remainder by percentages, currently he's 70% and I'm 30%.

I'm the designer, builder and grower. It's his house, although he is being paid rent and utilities off the top, how much should his "risk" be worth?

We're completely legal according to CA law and know we are to bill for hours but that still has to be equated into a value, especially if first crop yield is low.

we dont talk sales here...we are personal users..that being said....I would say the most at risk would be the higher %....the House has most to lose then the designer..just my thaughts


take care and be safe:bolt::bong:

It needs to equal out fairly, imo. 70/30 is **, I personally think. Regardless of whether its his house, he isn't the one putting forth the time and effort in raising the plants. He's profiting in giving you a location to do it at. If you are completely legal, he does not stand losing his home over it. Therefore, his risk is on par with yours, making you both 50/50. Factor in that it is, afterall, his home, and you could probably toss another 10% on there, making it 60% him, 40% you. 70/30 is just outlandish for the amount of work you're putting into the ladies so he can smoke or sell your bud.

Nobody in the US is legal as long as it is still illegal on a federal level. And yes, he could lose his home.

And nobody even knows if this guy can grow or has any kind of experience at all. All his questions are about $$$--he seems only interested in how much money he can pull out of this.

:yeahthat: This member is another one that shouldnt have a grow partner...this members mind set isnt there...and IMO..will end up with ZERO%...Most grow partners Ive read about when discussing $$$ allways ends Badly...

Yeah, my grow partner always hates his share...all smoke. Of course, he's my alter ego....

:rofl: :rofl: :rofl:

I'm not money focused, I'm doing a lot of work and wondering if its worth the time. Time is more valuable than money and I'm always limited. Boy this forum is quick to judge.

 

[LetitGrow805]

He's writing contracts and I'm covering my A** going over the details he's purposing by asking supposed experts and getting flack for it. I'm the underdog grower, it takes a lot of time to design, build and maintain a grow. If I'm getting 30% of Net is it worth the time? Simple question.

NO...why not grow in your own house?...then you get 100%

They are not that quick to judge really, its just that profit talk doesnt go over to well around here.

I think it depends mostly on the scale of production, and your potential to earn otherwise.

I wouldn't do it.

 

[LetitGrow805]

that's what I've been doing... This is a possible new venture for me... I do it for the patients as a hobby, but a hobby can only take so much time, then it becomes a job.

 

[LetitGrow805]

I see that. But nobody likes to work for free. I have a brand new baby daughter and I don't want to spend time away from her unless its worthwhile. The medicinal value is reason why I'm considering. My partner and I are both interested in Phoenix tears.

 

[LetitGrow805]

Thanks I'm quickly learning that.

:stoned: You'll be stuck in a position where you have to trust all of your security to a partner. If he gets in trouble you probably will too. Not worth it for just a charitable hobby, regardless of pay, especially with a daughter on the way.

If this job/hobby is already causing you this much stress it's obviously not worth it. Walk away and spend the extra time with your kid, in the end that will be a much bigger reward.

Your problem is you came in asking about money. Saying we're fast to judge is a bit off, you might maybe should have provided more info for a better answer instead of blaming the answers given on those not liking to talk money.

As to the question at hand...finding it hard to believe this is purely "charitable", can't imagine many people getting involved in this solely because they want to help friends and I REALLY find it hard to believe someone with that mindset hooking up with partners. If I were the "brains" of the operation, I'd not want my plants sitting somewhere where the less intelligent partner could screw it all up....just my thoughts.

If it's for charity, take the costs right off the top and figure out an acceptable split...
