I have been calculating expenses, checking for job offers (as a translator), thinking about not being able to work at winter (medicine school)... Is it ethical to sell a small amount to counterbalance your growing expenses?

I just dont know the answer, i am struggling with this myself. Have more than i can smoke in a year, or will, and just think i may give some away....not sure if i could sell.
Must say i am not going to Med School tho and dont really need the cash, and can understand your delima. But you get caught and that would not look good on your record and what would Medical School be then? Being a Mom, i would advise against it for you.

I am just thinking, I myself against selling as well... I have a list though, few people that know my project is donating me lights, cables, doing bulk work so in return I will give them buds, no cash involved. Though dilemma is a dilemma...

I think it justifies itself...
The main problem i have is with punks that sell for the sole reason of thier own benefit, and not taking into consideration everyone else out there.
If your selling just to cover the expenses, then your not ripping people out of thier money.
Thats my 2 cents, i think that if you dont have that mindset to go out and make profit, then its just covering the costs and is ok.

ethically speaking. i think selling excess bud to close friends is ok, they get quality bud from a safe source, and you dont have a half pound of herb sitting around all the time, but keeping your friends from telling there friends is never under your control and you should always keep your grow under your control
personally i dont think its worth the extra risk

Yes, I don't know why one would consider selling a legit product unethical. Nobody considers selling vegetables unethical so why would selling cannabis be?

It might be ethical on your end, but how ethical is it when one of your "close" friends gets in trouble and nods his head your way.

Ethical...thats only for your to decide, only you have to be ok with your actions in that department.
Illegal...definetly.
The road to hell is paved with good intentions...like trying to pay for med school, but ending up using your expertise as an orderly in some prison infirmary.

Actually just an idea but I am convinced now not to apply it. Personal ethics are heavier than prison as well as general ethics. I just wonder about the statistical resolution. A research.

it's not ethical, in the same way smoking weed isnt ethical, legally speaking. common sense should tell you it's a very bad idea :hubba:

do you have friends that smoke???
if so..
take some bud next time you meet with them.
tell them you found a awesome connection with bomb smoke and cheap prices
make up a name, and sell to them.
but what ever you do.. DO NOT TELL THEM YOU GROW

some may cry a river.. about my practice..
but hey.. this isn't cheap.. Electric bills, lights, fans, soil, nutes
that stuff adds up quick..
so all the holy rollers, that cry foul. If you smoke MJ in an area thats
prohibited, then you are its unethical no matter your opinion. Right??
so dont let the haters bother you.

I suggest each of you go back and read the forum rules. It very clearly states:
9. The sale of marijuana or the discussion of sales is not allowed here. The purchase or sale of any items through this site is not allowed. To purchase or sell something, you must first let this total stranger know exactly who you are and where you live. That just isn't smart.
