Quote:I would imagine the for profit growers would be using hot houses. That wouldn't require much land allocation but I also don't know how extensive start up costs would be for something large enough to produce a profitable crop. I guess I was just curious if farmers in general were considering marijuana as viable in addition to their existing produce, if the opportunity arose.

I'm sure some are for the romanticism of it but my local circle is the opposite type of farming for something like that. (Open ground v fixed crop)


It would have to make a lot of money before I'd consider it, and over an extensive period of time (10+ years).


The equilibrium between supply and demand can be surpassed really quickly relative to the amount of time it takes to develop a ranch into production.


I kinda prefer crops that are harder to grow and limited to small regions.
