I have no experience with growing pot but it seems to be a pretty easy thing to do... They don't call it "weed" for nothing ;)

  Growing something is easy. Growing a plant or plants healthy and robust enough for a decent harvest is far from easy unless you're already a farmer/grower.

    "Growing a plant or plants healthy and robust enough for a decent harvest is far from easy ..." You can cover up a multitude of sins using solvent extraction + chromatographic separation + blending. If legalization takes off, I suspect we will see the rise of blending conglomerates that assemble products for various tastes and purposes, like we see with whisky.

  growing grapes is easy, but producing an amazing wine is hard, or more in the spirit of HN building a web app is pretty easy but building something people want is hard, I assume the same applies with weed. It would be pretty lame if the Budweisers and Phillip Morris of the world come in and commoditize Marijuana, and it would put a major dent in some local California economies. But like a fine microbrew or boutique web shop there will always be a market for quality.
