With perpetual, you can have your cake and eat it, too; the plants never take up more space than they need, so spaces can be built around their needs at specific times in the cycle, thus maximizing both space efficiency and plant performance.

In other words, small spaces can have really good returns using perpetual growing techniques.

LOL yes that would work, it was more of a "what's the least amount" but I guess that depends as well. Perhaps I was high when asking, I forget why I even asked lol. I tried to set up a perpetual and quickly realized my setup required a few more rooms and space to do it.

As I'm trying to describe above, with perpetual you run stages, as many as necessary to deliver bloom ready plants to your bloom room, and as many as it takes to fill it each iteration. A stage consists of a given number of plants. It also regrets to a given space for them, as many spaces as it takes to go from clone to bloom ready.

Its been good for these past 2 months, i just got back from a trip to PR. Havent been getting a plant every 2 weeks every month ill have 2 massive plants.I actually just got a job doing insurance for Statefarm. lol Started looking bc i want to buy a crib and all my flow from my plants were going to bills and trips.

Well hey, that sounds like some progress for your growing sessions. Not everyone would be able to pay bills just on that alone. At least you know that Statefarm is on your side both for insurance and a paycheck now, so that's a plus right?

You got walls, right? Go vert!

Actually not many walls left lol, but yes with a little planning I could make that work. Not sure how that would help re perpetual though. I may do some drain to waste smart pots but just starting to dial in what I have lol. Still trying to figure out the logistics of all this. I really regret not building a bigger grow shed but any bigger and they want a permit so perhaps another shed

Yes I know but my problem is the room the trays take up and the lack of space to move full blown ready to bloom sets into the flower room. Thinking individual pots and moving two at a time x 8 would get me a two, three week harvest. I'm stoned again, perhaps I'll wait to figure this out, got till end of September before indoor gets powered up again

If your you're planning on doing this full time I would treat it like a full time job. Have you thought about all the stages of seed to sale? Do you know where you'll harvest these plants? Do you know where you'll store the product? Do you know who will buy the product? Yea it all sounds fine and dandy until you have a pound of beautiful bud and you just sitting on it because no one needs/wants it.

I would find a few folks who deal in bulk. Buy from them in bulk and start a little operation flipping. You can do it yourself or find peeps you trust and employ them to do it for you(this is a businesses right?). Remember I said PEOPLE YOU TRUST not average Joe. When you have made enough to build your grow op from flipping bud you build it ad's get it going while maintaining your selling business. You have already setup your distribution side of the business. It'll run itself. Stay focusing on the production and TADA! You can replace the product you've been buying with product that's 100% free(almost...electricity and such ya know) increasing your profit margins substantially. If you're going to do it like a business then you need to set up a business. That's how I've done/would do.

I'm going to look into some T5s soon. Where for 20 though Walmart Home Depot ?

I'm using my 400 hid in my veg room until there ready then putting that back in the flower room. I have some white widow curing that'll hold me over till the end of next month for bills. Autoflower got me like 3 zips

You won't find t5's for $20 at homedepot FYI. And you'll want HO's as well.

Mostly everything you said ive done, i did the flipping thing for 7 years, last year someone tried to rob me over a zip. (Shootout)Im tired of the black market.
Just harvested some 24k from DNA genetics. My first harvest on some bagseed i made 2Gs quick, 4 plants in a small DWC bucket. Harvested a 1/2p.
Getting my skills perfected, and now im doing perpetual and maximizing full area.

I dont know if you're in a legal stare or not. But if you're in a red state then you have to understand that people with day jobs are a lot harder to bust then people who aren't. It provides both an excuse for your money and a possible alibi. Self employment is best because you're the one who writes down how much you've made, thus making it easier to launder the cash. like someone said before me its best to sell in bulk. Its a one time deal with all the cash upfront, and the chances of police catching you on a few deals a year are small.

he's already got it growing why would he sell someone else's? And to OP, aren't you just moving up a rung in the black market thing? Oh and your supposed to reinvest and get bigger if your serious but I guess trips are fun too lol.

Haha sounds nice bro I remember my first harvest-4sale I sold to one person and instantly made a big return. It made a lightbulb go off in my head. I had been familiar with selling but growing then selling turned extra gas money into big money.

Because he doesn't have a job and you need the connections. The people selling to him in weight will eventually be his customers. He doesn't have to do it the way I stated but if he wants to build a solid base of clients and generate income before the harvest then selling other folks product in bulk will help him. To me it doesn't make sense to create any product without knowing who Will buy it. If he starts selling now he will...I'm not going to repeat myself. To each his own.
