If marijuana were legalized would you still grow your own?

Or would you like the convenience of being able to pick it up at a store whenever you wanted without the time spent and hassle associated with growing your own? Personally i think i would love to be able to get it anywhere without HAVING to grow, but i think i would still grow a few plants a year as well.

If the price was reasonable, and the quality as good if not better than homegrown, then I'd totally rather just pick some up on the way home. Here's my $$ government. Come get it. Just say the word :-)

and growing your own is fine but theres a lot of people that cant dedicate enough time to growing all the time, i like broccoli but i dont grow my own, easier to pick it up at the store

I would definately buy, there would be major corporations that could perfect strains, and it would be hard to beat, however I think that there would always be people who grow and breed their own, kindof like microbrewing

totally, the point behind me asking is to find out if people would spend their money and buy it thus helping our economy or if they would just mass grow their own so the government couldnt profit. My line of thinking is just because people can doesnt mean they will. Its america, americans are lazy. They dont grow their own food why would they grow their own pot? I think the government and america in general really could profit from legalizing both with cash flow and a calmer people

I think I would still grow. Gives me a good feeling when I know I made that. I would also buy, but there are times I like to do things myself.

It's like I know I can take my truck in for an oil change cheaper than I can do it myself...But every once in awhile I get in the mood to do it myself just because I can.

Well put, could'nt agree more. There is no other feeling like smoking some dank ass shit that you grew, but for the sake of variety and convenience i'd still cop as well.

Oh yeah, i agree also. The satisfaction you get from knowing you did this all, you gave it life...and then you'll take it away hehehe but totally i feel soooo good when i clip a sample and get a nice head high and think, man i did that. Well...i guess the plant makes the chemicals etc. but you get what im saying

thats something to think about...they might add things to preserve it longer or some chemical t keep it from drying out or something weird....or they could just sell some killer hash OMG i would be so happy to see hash in some stores, no need for chemicals but who knows

Do you really think that giving this govt more money and calmer people is what america need right now? If thats why you think it should be legalized then I would definitely grow my own. I would hate to see even more of my tax dollars going to bail out banks and big corporations.

yes i do think america needs more money and if legalizing it would send more money to our economy then fuck YES i DO think that. I would be more than happy to have more of my tax money taken if it meant saving our economy but i guess there are too many greedy people like you who would rather go out and buy a $5 latte probably on a credit card everyday than give more to taxes, imagine if everyone working in america gave just $5 more a paycheck how much money could go back into what keeps our country running. Instead we have fat greedy americans who think $5 or even $1 more on taxes is an outrage, I make less than $30,000 a year combined with my husband and even still we would be willing to give a little bit more to help a lot.

On a side note that is not why I would want it legalized. There are many reasons, my first being its a plant that should be able to be grown anywhere its able, naturally.
Anyone else want to argue?:hump:

it depends, would their be a limit on how many in this scenario? cuz otherwise you could grow pounds of many many strains in just one backyard if u dont have to worry bout stealth and hiding plus with more research on breeding the best possible strains and cross em and what not. i'd like 20lbs of weed for doing almost nothing and costing next to nothing.....

I agree 100% that our system is WAY fucked but for now theres not much we can do about it, i think obama has a handful to deal with right now and the last thing on his mind is mj he is working on getting in again right now and wont even think to touch something so hot, maybe 2012 will be different...lets all hope

In this scenario there is no limit, same as tobacco farmers etc. I do think people will farm it and sell it for less than the gov. but not so many people that it wouldnt make a nice profit even still, americans are lazy the vast majority of them arent going to grow their own, they expect everything done for them and by "they" and "them" i mean the people who give america an even worse rep., not saying everyone is like that because i certainly am not.
