People usually do one or two crops, making shit weed in the process that barely gets them high, and give up, because it's not as easy as they thought it would be. Not me. When I was growing I was making quality weed that people thought was being imported from Amsterdam. I just couldn't hack the paranoia.
in which case you will be up against the market garden scale producers, pests and moulds will be no problem as they will use insecticides and fungicides, heating costs will be reduced by using large greenhouses. they will be able to produce at a price that you won't be able to compete with. You would be really screwed if spain and france legalize too as spains costs of production would be a lot lower and they would have year round cheap production and cheap transport into in the uk.
