Hi dudes, I'm trying to do some guerilla grow this year, already ordered my little seeds, I had some good spots prepared but I found some human activity signs too close to the spots so I have decided to change the spots.
I thought maybe you veteran guerilla growers could help me out with some creative ideas or some old school techs, I will try to describe the nearby terrain as best as I can.
I live in Portugal in the country and usually ride on a bicycle to get to look for spots in a 15km radius, it's basically all private properties, and they have no corn here, all the farmers plant is huge rice fields, grapes, and huge cattle fields. There are some little rivers going through here and there, and some small ponds. There is railways too but no water sources close to it. Can't transport the water with me cause I'm not growing the ocasionall 2 or 3 plants, to make this work I will need quantity so carrying all the water with me is basically impossible.

I attached some images showing you the typicall landscape that I choose for growing.
The average Joe won't go there just maybe the guy who owns it occasionally passing by car or maybe hunting idk.

P.S: I had to drop a spot because I found out they were training hunting dogs there I got face to face with a hunter dog German shepherd and almost shit my pants, the dog got spooked cos he wasn't expecting seeing a person, I ran away and never went back.

I hope someone can help you choose the right spot.
I will suggest picking up either a book about foraging for food and mushrooms, or a bird information book and binoculars. You need a reason to be out in the middle of nowhere possibly on private property. No one cares if you have the things I mentioned

We have swamps here too, it's funny I wondered if it would work, never grew in a swamp, I always feared the bud could rot cause of high humidity

Go places nobody goes to. However some of the spots you list draw duck and goose hunters who usually start scouting early fall.

You’re going to have to haul water. Research drip emitters. Drip irrigation. You’re going to have to haul water. If there’s water available there’s people.

Do not visit except to replenish water or to feed. Do not make a trail. Use binoculars. No north sides and avoid west sides. Choose south or southeast facing. Early sunlight is extremely important.

Top and bend it over. Stake it down. They look for the distinctive color abd pine tree shape. As the top grows up again bend it over again.

Last people who live anywhere remote are automatically suspicious of people they don’t recognize.

So long as it isn’t drug hunter dogs, that spot seems to have its own security.

Yeah I guess you are right, in the past 2 years all my spots that got found were too close to water...I guess sometimes I'm too lazy:mrgreen:.

And I can relate to the part about people who live in remote places, as I live in a kind of remote place myself.Thats why I'm kind of scared of being caught trespassing after climbing over a fence, even if I have some excuse.

When I grew gorilla
I would prepare ten five gallon buckets and place the seedlings bucket and all in its future home
I would put 8 to 10 in each bucket
When they get about 8 inches tall I would transplant them into the ground , all ten in a ten foot circle
Only to return to remove males
This method let me set the buckets in the dark and replant without carrying anything
I would put all ten out at least a 1/4 mile apart and usually on a good year I would harvest 3 to 7 of those spots
Thieves, cops and farmers were my competition

This worked for decades

All of my first spots as a kid were next to water-I grew a lot of plants on the side of a riverbank and a few in the reeds next to canals. Having a "reason" to be there is basic gorilla growing, so when I was a kid I'd bring a bucket and a little pole to fish for crawdads, and I'd actually spend some time doing that to make sure no one else was around-I kept a bag of fertilizer hidden on site too. I never thought the birdwatching idea was believable, but if you go all in and dress like a birdwatcher, buy some dorky clothes, guidebook, binoculars...the more details the better. If you do that, you need to stash your bucket out there nearby too. Find someplace near water, with green vegetation, it can't all be dry and dead. Also, find a few spots like that nearby and spread out your plants-don't keep all your eggs in one basket. Some of the best spots are in the middle of dense vegetation-a lot of times you can find an area that thins out and gets sun. Look for places that people don't have a reason to go to, a swamp would be perfect! Good luck! Fun times...

You can buy a solar pump to feed a drip system and as long as you try to be on a slight slope you could tube it a very long distance. You would need to be able to keep it hidden but it could work in a very far off the path kinda location. Just what I was thinking reading this. I mean. You need water and you could run miles of black tubing which would be fine as long as it doesn’t get disturbed.

Ask about hunting. Act like you want to hunt and you’re scouting places. Don’t be surprised if they let you if they’re farmers or have trees deer crib on. But by damn you better go back with a gun come hunting season or that jig is up.

Be respectful. If you’re a veteran tell them. Tell them safety is always #1. You don’t get buck fever. You’re not going to shoot livestock or even near them. Then plant on their neighbors back 40.

Hunters are kooky enough to want to scout every part of the year. Also if they let you then check in with them occasionally. Take a can of coffee. If a gate is closed close it after you go through and leave it open if you find it open.

Be a good ol’ boy.
