I've been doing some research on growing and I am putting some serious interest in giving it a try for several reasons, not least of all, to save a few bucks in the long run.
I recently bought some really good, but unfortunately very seedy, marijuana. However, I have no idea how to tell strains apart. I can't decipher indica from sativa, nor other details beyond the species. Basically all I know is how to rate it on a scale of 1-10 on quality.
My first major issue is my growing space. I estimate that I can make a growbox that is perhaps 3'W x 2'L x 4'H without trouble. I estimate 1' of height to be taken up by both the lighting and pots, leaving 3' for plant growth. I am guessing I will be able to fit 3-4 plants in the setup, so long as the plants grow bushy rather than fanned out. Electrical and duct work will be my most minor issue as I have experience with both.
It seems like the holy grail is understanding expectant yield given a certain plant, even when the strain is known, but are their any clues to the mystery? I've noticed that there are several mini-grow boxes (such as computer cases) but I have yet to find any info relative to a yield obtained. I would be ecstatic if I could yield 1oz monthly harvest or 2oz bi-monthly harvest (by staggering planting times).
Can anyone shed some light on this, or am I having pipe dreams... (hmm, I wonder if that's where the term comes from...)
