The answer

If the substance you cultivate intoxicates the mind and causes inebriation, then it is Khamr (wine/intoxicant), and every intoxicant is Haram (forbidden), as the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, said: "Every intoxicant is Khamr, and every Khamr is forbidden." The religious texts have consistently affirmed the prohibition of Khamr and everyone who participates in its acquisition and consumption, such as the Almighty's saying: "O you who have believed, indeed, intoxicants, gambling, [sacrificing to] stone altars, and divining arrows are but defilement from the work of Satan, so avoid it that you may succeed," and the Prophet's saying, peace and blessings be upon him: "Allah has cursed Khamr, its drinker, its pourer, its seller, its buyer, its presser, its extractor, its carrier, and the one to whom it is carried."

Accordingly, money earned from its sale is Haram. The majority of scholars hold that performing Hajj with Haram money is valid and fulfills the obligation, but its owner commits a sin. It is obligatory to dispose of this Haram money and perform Hajj with Halal money, if available.
