MARIJUANA GROWING AND BUSINESS How do you start Cannabusiness? How do I write a business plan for a dispensary? Thinking about starting a cannabis business but don't know where to begin? THIS BOOK WILL TEACH YOU HOW TO GROW MARIJUANA YOURSELF, STEP BY STEP, AND MOST IMPORTANTLY HOW TO CREATE YOUR OWN BUSINESS The market value of the U.S. cannabis industry is projected to reach $30 billion annually by 2025. Cannabis has crept out of the shadows of the stoner culture and emerged as a multi-billion-dollar industry. Before you start any business, you should have some idea of what the industry landscape is like: What are the earning potentials? What are the risks? Who is your competition? Before you get started Cannabis cultivation laws vary widely state-by-state. Also, we can't stress this enough: Growing cannabis is illegal in a lot of places, and the penalties - which include steep fines and prison time - can be much worse than possession, since growing can imply an intent to distribute. You need to be especially scrupulous about heeding these rules. Do your homework and read up on the laws in your state. Some states prohibit growing cannabis, while others, like my home state of California, permits anyone over age 21 to grow cannabis, but only up to a certain number of plants. Colorado, Oregon, Nevada, Vermont, and Maine also allow cultivation, but again, the specifics depend on the state. Definitely clarify what your rights are before you start the glorious path to at-home bud gardening. Let's start!
