Whos in the right?

[Rusty Trichome]

A couple of things peaked my interest here...

If you have such a dim view of this guy, yet still chose to do business with him...you will get what's coming.

If you can't trust him with regards to the equipment, what makes you think that you can trust him through harvest and dividing the spoils? Will he be sneaking a bud on occation, leaving you nothing?

What does his freaked-out mom think?

I'd divide everything, and avoid the guy in the future. If he has nothing but scammer written actross his forehead, does yours say 'sucker'?

I'm in about the same situation, growing at his house cuz hes got a free house. I'm waiting till first harvest, taking my plant, and box (I built him a nice dual spectrum box) and leaving. Who knows, I might get something from the hydro, but if not, oh well. I know they will die or not be worth it cuz he doesnt know shit about growin plants.

you could sell the lot once done and split it 50/50 then do 3 clones 2 for you (to cover your lights etc) and 1 plant for him.

Thats a fair deal (a friend of mine did this once and he was ok)

doesn't everyone have that friend they've known theyre entire life and trust with their life, but hes just lacks common sense sometimes. I mean shit one of the leaves is starting to yellow because we are in the 5th week of flowering and he starts freaking out thinking theyre gunna die.

Hes not gunna scam me, or steal from me, he just wants me to let him in on anything in the future because when i leave with everything he wont have the money or the brains to do it by himself.

Everything wouldn't have come together if it wasn't for me funding it, and everything wouldn't be happening if he didn't have a place to do it. Everything from the plastic on the ground, to the fertalizers and pots was bought with my money(i even started the plants at my house and moved them over to his). Im putting tons of money into this shit and hes not putting a dime in. Just because were using his house doesn't mean hes entilted to half of MY things. Ill split it straight 50/50 after i get out of debt from it. I think thats more than generous.

thank you all for giving me your opinion

is it uncommon among marijuana cultivators to actually want to grab a juicy nug and eat it?(not saying i would, but the urge is there)

You both set out to grow together man and unless you get another "friend" who is just as long a friend and you trust them as much as you do this one im afraid your in for more of the same as he is taking a huge risk
And as you say your paying back the debt so techniclly you both own it and he would be entitled to 50/50 plus you will have a grow room that works my opinion is typical human nature is greed takes over as usual its people like that that have the price of weed as high as it is just pay the bill start another grow kick your friends ass and make him help out and next time youll get nothing but totally free bud split 50/50

Your most recent post changed my mind...Either he is a friend or he isn't. The tenor of your original post was that he was scamming you, now you appologize for over-representing his behavior...?
If you are feeling that you are better than your friend, perhaps it's time to drop the adolescent drama queen bullshit, grow-up, and share as originally agreed-upon.
You only risk the financial loss for the equipment and supplies...he risks getting busted and the increased possibility of fire or flood, or getting robbed for the stash, and his mom gets stuck with the electric bill.

doesn't everyone have that friend they've known theyre entire life and trust with their life, but hes just lacks common sense sometimes.

Usually, I have a better opinion of my friends than:
"He is a total broke, lazy, and quite stupid fellow."
"...that lieing mother fucker"
" He is just trying to be a little bitch."
Your statements are, in my opinion, something one would say about a relative or a neighbor. But if I ever felt this way about a friend, I'd drop them as a friend. Conversely, were one of my 'friends' talking about me as you are about him...they'd lose more than their equipment. (a couple of teeth, minimum)
He offered you his home to grow cannabis together, likely with the full understanding that it would be his bust were something to go wrong. In some states, Mom could lose her home.

Just because were using his house doesn't mean hes entilted to half of MY things. Ill split it straight 50/50 after i get out of debt from it. I think thats more than generous.

Depends on your original deal, but it sounds like you want to change the rules of the game at halftime.

Thank him for the use of his home, thank the mom, and use this experience to understand that a co-operative effort only works if all are aiming at the same goal. Maybe buy him a nice bong or something to show you apperciate the fact that without him...you would be sucking on bagweed.

Split the first havest 50/50 and take ur shit and go elsewhere. No reason to prolong the situation and create more drama. Thank him for his kindness in allowing u to use his place and figure someting else out. I would not give up my equipment either after i paid outta my own pocket without his help!!!

technically its not out of his pocket, all he is doing is taking money out of his future profit which is supposed to be split 50/50 so the equipment is some of the profit therefore each guy gets half the equipment and half the money. In my opinion the risk is worth more that the work and the other guy should get more than 50% but thats just me.

i wouldn`t even split the first crop just for his cheek,just because you used his house dont mean he owns half your shit.....tell him to start his own grow the lazy,selfish,greedy prick.
