You pipe smoke into an opening that's not the tube, so they all fly down the tube to your outdoor area or a container. You could also just hang the hexagons on the wall and then remove and carry outside to harvest.

OP, if you know someone who will buy it grow weed, many states are legal/decriminalized and don't care about small grows

If you don't know anyone who will buy it locally, its too much of a hassle to ship. Instead, GROW MUSHROOMS and sell them on the darknet. Mushrooms are retarded stupid easy to grow and the initial investment is in the low hundreds.

Its decent if i sell a good amount but that's the other issue lmao. I was only able to sell ~14 out of 50, with 10 of it being from a game i barely play now.

It's usually not for companies, most of the time it's people wanting to build their own house.

Yo, American here, so I couldn't buy any growkits, but I started with Uncle Ben's, and even though it's an easy intro to mycology, it was a fucking bitch to get things going. You only have visibility through the bottom of the bag, so more than half the bags I thought were completely colonized turned out to have trich when I opened them (glad I did it all outside). Eventually I was successful, though.
Now I'm able to cut time down by at least a couple weeks by doing grain transfers/cloning on agar, and then mixing the agar into brown rice-filled mason jars after steam sterilizing them.
There's a learning curve but give it enough time and failure, and you'll get the hang of it. I'm just now trying my first clone of a king oyster mushroom I scored at an asian market, so hopefully as I get better with these things over time I can get into growing gourmet mushrooms to sell to local high-end restaurants.

Cannabis growery. I don't even smoke.

- Financials: 8 plants, 580gr dry yield, 250eur total costs, 2550eur revenue, 2300eur earnings. Outdoor grow with some light supplementation with an old lamp I got for free.

- Time spent: 10min/day watering, light trimming, low-stress training, 45min/weekend on trimming, potting, etc, a few hours on harvest, trimming and drying.

I don't even smoke, I like gardening and this was the plant with the highest crop earnings I in can think off. I sold everything through one friend. Only downside was the paranoia.

There are forums out there like Shroomery that have been online for 20 years; they're quite efficient at getting you to standing on the shoulders of giants quickly.
