Growing on tree tops

[MattakaSqueaks]

Im thinking of growing a few plants on a tree top. They would get light all day and you wont have to worrie about bush stompers discovering your crop. Just wodering if anyone has tried it and if so how was your results?

...

That sounds pretty fucking cool.

[Kid Dynamite]

what do you mean, as in put the plants in pots on the top of a tree? That sounds like a pretty sweet plan.

[hoodedclum]

Yer that sounds like a pretty stealthy idea your just gonna have to find a good spot where the light will hit the plants

[del...]

cannabis doesn't need a full day of direct sunlight and does well growing IN and UNDER trees, not just the tree tops. they do well getting only direct light for a few hours in the am or pm...something else to think about...
watering...it's gonna be a bitch hauling up water every day...no?

[az666]

i might just have to give it ago aswell......
have to think of somwhere to put them.

My buddy and I are intending to grow a portion of our crop in the canopy. This will be our first grow and should be a major one, we are going to experiment with a pulley sytem to lower the plants for watering and care. I'll be sure to keep a photo log if this does work.

Wouldn't all the strange behavior draw attention to what you're doing? I think if I noticed somebody hauling things up and down from the treetops, I'd be curious. Do you think the opposition is stupid, or what?

Good luck, though.

i think i may have to try this as well. sounds interesting, but it will not be easy to coordinate. how are you building the platform for the plants, and whats your plans for getting up and down the tree?

but how will people not notice?

LOL. belive it or not, i tried the same thing. when i was growing last year i had 3 plants, each bout a foot or more (bout a month old) and i needed a new spot. so i took some hooked bungee cords and my plants and climbed a tree. had them strapped in there for a day or so but i noticed that the wind became a big problem. i could only imagine how windy it would get during a storm or smthin if i wasnt home.

so basically if wind isnt a problem for you, go for it!
PEACE

Don't they look for that stuff from like.. planes etc.? I mean, if you're growing a few plants I'm sure it doesn't matter, just don't go overboard. ^.^

This method is not new at all. It is used by Hawaiian growers for it's stealth. Check out the first Cannabible. :)

Im only going to try it with four plants this year and if it works well I will be growing alot more next year. I going to use two trees and two plants in each. Simply make a wood case for the pots and hang them in the tree tops and build a latter that is removeable or find a few trees that would be easy to climb and hual every thing up in a backpack. I think it will be interesting.

People dont just stare into the tree tops. The plants will blend nicely into the trees.
