Hi All, I can’t believe my situation but you have to deal with life. For the last 10 years or so I haven’t had problems getting good weed, I used the same guy, for the longest time I was paying around $3500 USD per pound for a good BC quality. As we all know, nothing lasts forever. I live in a retirement community in a semi tropical climate and it gets real hot here during the late spring through early fall so W/O an A/C I don’t think I can grow year round. In my garage I have a wooden box 45” wide 32” deep and 80” high. I’ve lined it with Mylar and I acquired an 8 10” pot drip system called SmartGardens with Autopot modules. The Grow medium is Perlite and coco-coir. I know I’m going to need an MH and HPS cooled lighting system with a safe ballast, I know I’m going to need PH and PPM meters, light movers, chemicals and god knows what else. I tried this a long time ago when I was living in a normal climate and although it didn’t go as expected, I was pleased with the meager results. I know there are grow houses all over this area because every time one gets popped it’s on the local news although everything is air conditioned except my garage. I want to go with CO2 but it looks to confusing with all the equipment and cost it could be way out of site. As far as seeds go, I have 10 Big Bud, 10 Northern lights and 10 bubblegum plus I was given 5 extra for the order. If anyone can give me a few tips or guidance or whatever I would be very appreciative. I can take pics of my box but I don't think it's necessary.
Thanks

It is do-able, thanks for the advice.

Thanks for the Kudos, I post some new pics in a few days, If anone is interested in details, ask and I shall answer. I can say one thing, Autopots and Smartvalves do what they say they will do.

No but your mother seems very do-able. Tell her I'll give her a call later.

don't let the riffraff on the site get you down. the vast majority of people are great to get along with. and you share a secret hobby that you can't easily share with people in person.

hang around and ignore the morons.

Hi CD

I have a question for you.
