Finally the time has come to enjoy the fruits of my harvest and, just like that, after a 5 minutes conversation, all has vanished.As you can tell, I'm still licking my wounds.

It is a numbers game meaning you need a decent size list and you need to mail it consistently to harvest the results.

You can either jump on this bandwagon and harvest the benefits or complain about it and miss out on potential deals.

At LEAST 5 times more gardens get planted than harvested.

Pay tax on the seed not the harvest.

No problem. but I have harvest rights. 

They usually ask for a % of the harvest on top of rent, and offload it to a club or someone you know..

The legal grey areas come up with when actual medicinal users in California have a large amount of marijuana with them (sometimes a year's worth just after harvest), are growing it, or are suspected of trafficking in it.

I have lots of crappier houses in worse neighborhoods that I will gladly harvest the equity in order to get this one down to a cash flowing position.

You can still redeploy the equity just as you might with a 1031 exchange if you sell and are able to harvest the gain tax free.
