Mining BTC Growing Weed
Stress Level < Stress Level
Time consumption < Time consumption
Start-Up Cost > Start-Up Cost
Why not just have a room where you grow weed and mine Bitcoins? Use the heat of the computers to insulate the room lol
The start up cost varies to much for you to be able to say which is greater. Buying computer hardware and everything would obviously be more than buying lights, soil, seeds, etc based on a 1:1 ratio. Not if your establishing a climate controlled, odor controlled, grow room.

I know, but that's be the same as buying really expensive set-up to mine with. Based on a 1:1 ratio of profit, I would say that mining BTC would cost more to set up. It would also last longer than a grow-op though, so it balances itself out.

20 plants 1st harvest = $10k Total year profit = $30k
Considering you have the setup, and solar panels.
Where did you come up with these numbers? An average grower can held 1lbs per 1kwatt every 3 months (I know you can get more with right strain and experienced grower). Where I am from 1lbs goes for 4k. Just with 1 light, multiple when necessary. 1 pound? Probably not you will need a huge plant for that. 1lb might go for 4k, but if you sell 10 pounds to someone, you're not selling it for 4k each. I can go buy 10lb from Cali for 13k. You don't just grow 1 plant under a 1k light, you should know this. Also should know you sell it for what you ask. 4k per lbs is how it goes, don't like it don't buy it imo. You don't have to be a salesmen to sell drugs, they tend to sell themselves. You will never find 10lbs for 13k in NY unless you are smoking dirt. I doubt your plant is going to grow 1lb a few oz maybe. As for 1lb if you're a grower, you don't sell 1lb for $4k you want to get rid of it because then you're stuck with 10 pounds of dry weed. Have you ever tried to buy 10lbs in 1 shot? If not, how can you say you will never find those prices? Florida normal prices are $3500 or less.

I said you don't grow 1 plant... Have you done any of what you are talking about because I think the answer is no.

How do people contribute on a forum when they can't read?
I said it twice already. You don't grow one plant under a 1kwatt light.

Plants use photosynthesis to synthesise carbon from the air into plant tissue. Limiting factors are light, water, nutrient, temperature, ambient humidity and CO2 content in the air. Not the numbers of plants. Like I said earlier, average yield should be 0.5g-1.5g per 1KW of light. If you prefer imperial measure this is 1.10 to 3.3 pounds per 1KW. If you use more plants it means you can flower them earlier/smaller so more crop per years. If you use only one plant you get less crop per years. This is a video of a 3.3 pounds indoor plant : http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QB0W6XWOEvwOld articles but still relevant : http://www.cannabisculture.com/articles/3268.html http://www.cannabisculture.com/articles/3368.htmlWelcome to Canada. ![](https://ip.bitcointalk.org/?u=https%3A%2F%2Fi.imgur.com%2FSQeT2oZ.jpg&t=665&c=fum1wCWqFOHY3g)

Ya, growing weed is way more profitable if done properly lol.
Illegal? Yes, but indeed wayyyy more profitable.
Illegal in some states. Illegal by the goons of the federal government, but not illegal by state laws in some states, like cali, washington, colorodo, and what? like 16 other states? Yes, 19 states u can grow legally by state law.
