This is a really cool thread Scooby, spent a while reading and created an acct just to ask a few ?s if that's cool. I really enjoy learning about Costa Rica (your info on residency was really helpful)... It's an area I'd love to check out down the line.

I was wondering, will you be using your future greenhouse for ganja? Or is that a bad idea down there? Also, is there a website you'd recommend for researching properties?

Love all the photos of your fruits and other plants... and I'm excited for you with your new grow room getting built soon. Best of luck Scooby! & Happy Holidays everybody :)

thanks man. welcome to RIU. i'm gonna do a smaller greenhouse now that we're doing this project with the new dedicated grow room. I wanna test it out fist and make sure that I can keep down the humnidity and heat and keep out the bugs. if it works out then i'll just expand on it. it not only gonna be for weed; i'm sure we'll have plenty of other things growing in there. growing in a greenhouse or in a shed is illegal so i guess it's a bad idea either way. just have to make sure you protect yourself and keep your property secure. and of course; don't let anyone know.

as for researching properties; realtors and real estate websites are a dime a dozen down here. most of them are complete ripoff. they take the price the owenr is asking and add 10-30% to it. it's a complete joke. no regulation whatsoever and on most deal the buyer's agent is the seller's agent and they are both using the same attorney. you have to know your way around the system. go directly to the property owner to negotiate a purchase. always have your own attorney. and never believe the price you see on a real estate website.

happy holidays to you too.

good to see you around Express...what you been up to?

Do you have to take your cars to liberia to get them serviced?

When I was in CR I remember hearing that was a pain in the ass.

No, i've never heard that before. For small stuff you can get it done locally. for warranty work or major body work you take it to San Jose. only 2 hours from where i live and an hour from where i keep my big boat. if it' quick stuff then i just spend the day there. anything major and i take a car service or plane home. i drive a pickup truck so they are pretty durable anyway. all fo the dealers are in San Jose. Maybe you got confused. Any car imported into Costa Rica has to pass customs in Limon; not Liberia. 45.5% import tax on new cars. ridiculous. fully loaded Toyota Tundra Platinum edition (missing a fe major things the U.S. Platinum edition has) costs $88k from Toyota here in Costa Rica.

Liberia is a probably where you have to go if you live in Guanacaste.

I do a set up like you I'll have the best weed around no problem. new england sucks for dank bud they'll charge $60 an 1/8th for pretty shitty indoor and get it. I can't stop growing now no way in hell I'm going back to them prices that shits for the sheep. lol

It's funny you say the last line, because that's exactly where my family in CR is located.

But man, that tax is insane. I was unaware of that!

spent the day diggin a 75ft ditch and running 140ft of 2/0 Aluminum URD from the loadcenter for the back yard to the spot where the new growroom is gonna be. nothing like needing 150amps at 240v for your grow room. gettin pumped to start going vertical construction. got a 250amp panel that runs the entire backyard, lights, workshop, pressure pumps, hot water heater, ac, etc... waiting on a specialty 150amp sub breaker to hook into the panel cause i can't find one down here. gonna start pouring the pad after the holidays.
