As a grower of plants it looks like I’m about to have another opportunity opening up here in Illinois. The state has begun taking applications for growers of medical marijuana and they will take one from each county. Our nursery can grow plants and I imagine growing weed can’t be that much harder than growing petunias other than people won’t kill you to steal 15 petunia plants. Illinois being typical Illinois requires every to pay a huge application fee that is kept regardless if you are chosen or not. Sounds like ICANN and the new gTLDs. I have a group ask me to join but I absolutely hate throwing away $25K if they don’t choose us. I also don’t know if I even want to be in that business. A lot of security issues and HUGE upfront money required. I think I may just stick to petunias. Hell, they die and people pay $4 and buy another one every year. That sounds almost as good as pot. Here are today’s names.
IndyCars.com A lot of people watch Formula One racing. Probably safer with Indycars.com than FormulaOne as far as trademark. 18 years old and seeing some action
BackUpService.com This is a great name and deserves to be in the thousands of dollars and not the hundreds IMO
ESVA.com 15 years old and under $100 at press time
LetsMix.com Good dating name. I guess it could also be a cooking name. 13 years old
eChinese.com Only one bidder. I realize the Chinese probably won’t buy this but still a good name
Mashups.net Even as a dot net I think it’s probably worth $12. No bidders
StreamingVid.com No bidders. Streaming movies is going to catch on some day
FCJR.com All good letters. Yes, J is a good letter
75112.com Awesome 5L.com . Over under $400
XOGY.com You know I like LLLL.coms that start with X. Cheap and pronounceable
34009.com Surprised this isn’t getting much action
YJVJ.com Not a super valuable domain but fun to say and easy to remember..so maybe it is
BuyCheapOnline.com Pretty much what every person is trying to do buy things cheaper online. Getting some love so others like it as well
Term.io If you look and see which dot IO names are selling this is the exact kind. Short and brandable.
Working Godaddy Domain Code of the day. $10 off PURCHASES OF $50 OR MORE ACOSKS65
UniqueDesigns.com 17 years old. A lot of people can design but not everyone can be unique
BuyShares.com $19 CPC for this stock name
TomatoPatch.com Cute brand. Unfortunately one bidder. I guess that’s better than 50 but I wanted it for $69
Danzi.com I liked it as a 5L.com and then saw 166 bidders. I knew it was a name but damn that’s a lot of bidders. I’m missing something
CorporateReputation.com Because you need someone to protect you against Yelp and Angie’s list
GrayBird.com Great brand but you better buy GreyBird as well
BuyEggs.com As a person that sells farm eggs I know this one would help sell more eggs
Calories.org Easy buildout. Just put the calories of all billion foods on a site. Maybe not so easy
MilkFree.com Surprised there aren’t many bidders on this pending delete

Hello Shane,
What is the potentially upside on the weed? Not just this year but in say 5 years time.
CNBC was talking this a.m. about real tax rate on the mj businesses since they are not federally legal. Very High since one can’t write off expenses like a regular business. illinois is the most stringent of most states i believe as well.
Anthony,
Probably great upside in 5 but when it becomes legal the big boys (ie tobacco) will push out all the small growers
The thing is, there is an art to growing weed, if you want good weed.
But i’m sure you know all about that owning a nursery.
Knowing when to pull the male plants so they don’t pollinate the female plants.
Knowing the right time to harvest the plants, so the buds don’t rot.
Pot plants also get worms and grasshoppers, that eat the plant if grown outside..
These are a few basic points to growing weed, growing sellable weed.
These plants take work, just like a fine wine…lol
Brand,
Sounds like I have my first application for grower 🙂
i personally like the domain names LetsMix.com and Indycars.com..both of these have a nice sounding domain names.
