Growing in pods?

:fire: Ok im thinking of ways to grow outdoor year around.. I checked out pods (portable on demand storage) they have translucent ceilings and nice locks. Im wondering if the light transmission through the cieling will be sufficient to bud.. plus using suplimental lighting to extend the short days of winter will make the ceiling glow like mad.. there has to be a way to make this practical. Anyone have experience with them? pods...? anyone?
:leaf:peace out:leaf:

but why not build your own little growbox or build your own pod? they charge rent on those MONTHLY and you could use corrugated fiberglass for the roof on a box you could build, itd work the same

yeah Id definitely be better off building one to my specs but it just seems so right and low key. Where i live no one would second guess a pod. its like under 200 a month. id only use it for 4 or 5 months tops. 8 foot ceilings i could grow some dank sativa strains

but for 200 dollars, the price for like 1 months rent...you could build your own, as tall, as long and whatever. Put 2 rooms in it even for veggin and flowerin... Sheet plywood, for a piece thts 4 ft by 8 ft its around 9 buks. Then the corrugated fiberglass is the same size but 36 buks......

your right... seriously. all of you. pods is not a smart investment. I think im on to wanting to bury a cargo container on my buddys farm. itd be expensive as hell but super low key. i also saw underground generators. the best grow i ever saw was in a bunker, i think once i accumulate the money im going subterranian if at all possible. then expand maybe get some land.

get a backhoe, a few dump trucks, and some friends. Then get the cargo container, Dig a hole big enough to hold it them plus 6 feet deeper so its underground a ways. Then go to the store, home depot or lowes and get a a 1 1/2 foot diamater black pvc coulvert pipe, thats around 7 ft long. Drill a hole in the cargo container to fit the pipe in, silicone that fucker up, you wont want bugs and shit in there, youll also want to do this to the inside of the cargo container. Then bury the container and plant grass seed so there isnt a bare spot in your yard. Then, to get in , all you gotta do is slide down that tube. Then to seal it, put a cap on it, they sell them for that pipe specifically. Noone will ever question this. For all hey know its your septic system vent. Better to put your growing supplies in the cargo container before you bury it, youll be pisse if the supplies wont fit down the tube.
