"Lights placed on the floor"?
Also, what happens to the branches that are against the wall?
Unless I'm not picturing this right, it sounds like a REALLY piss-poor idea.
Broom closet?
First you need an intake and exhaust. The exhaust should have a fan, the intake can be passive. You don't need a big fan. I suggest a bathroom exhaust-type fan, $12.99 @homedepot. But for odor control I don't know. It would have to be something wall mounted.
It's gonna be...
I used a piece of metal conduit, the same diameter as the hole, in an "S" shape, spray painted black inside.
Occasionally I used a "baffle", a box that was open on one side, the side not facing exterior light
Be sure to drill lots of holes for drainage.
I disadvantage to using containers is that it raises the plants up, making them more visible.
A 4' tall plant in a container makes the top of the plant 6' tall.
I believe he told me it took him 5 days to get to Guatamala, pretty much traveling night and day. The early 70's was the "golden age of hitchiking", you rarely had to wait long for a ride because the road was full of us hippie's willing to give anyone a ride. South of the border he got rides...
Plant seeds in prepared amended soil after the last dangers of frost have passed. 4/20 is a good date in most area's.
Keep watered (at least 2x/week) and add nutrients to the water at least 1x/week.
Harvest when 75% of the bud hairs have turned red/brown (mid-late Oct. with most strains)...
This happened about '73.
I was driving to Tahoe (via Reno) from SoCal and picked up this 18-year old backpack hitchiker outside of San Berdoo.
We start talking.
He's headed back home to Canada.
A few weeks earlier he and his friends had been sitting around bemoaning the dearth of weed. So...
You should try to avoid light cycle variations (22/2 to 19/5)
By the way, plants grown under 18/6 isn't any more cost efficent than 19/5 or even 24/0, since the longer the light cycle the faster the plant grows.
Urine doesn't contain much N.
Herbivore shit (manure) does however and it is cheap cheap cheap.
You can get like a 30 lb. sack of cow shit for under a buck.
Just make sure it's well-rotted (composted).
I prefer not to use bloody bones.
One reason is, for outdoor grows sometimes animals...
I could have the kindest indoor growroom on earth, I'd never lose my love for outdoors.
Way more environmentally sound, not burning all that imported oil.
And I can grow a plant outside that more equal or surpass 4 indoor plants.
Outside in the fresh air with the breeze blowing, the birds...
I wouldn't do it again.
And I don't do bong hits on the freeway anymore. In fact I rarely smoke at all while I'm driving. I find I enjoy the high a lot more if I wait to get where I'm going before blazing.
P.S. I'm not recommeding trying this on your own. If I had made one slight...
Mid-70's.
Me and my friend Brad are driving back from the S.F. valley where we had spent hours looking for weed with no luck.
So I'm driving my van on the 101 N.
Brad looks over to his right and then says "Hey that guy's blazing a doobie".
I glance over and there's a guy in a van smoking a...
A clone is not a baby of a mother plant.
A clone is the same plant as the donor. Even a clone of a clone of a clone is still part of the original plant.
Now, marijuana is an annual. In nature it completes it's life cycle in less than a year.
So keeping a plant alive for more than a year is...
