Beyond "basic": houseplant style?
Hi,
I wish to avoid the use of any hardware other than soil, water and sunlight. I have a verada with 12 hours of sunlight at best and since the sun is gradually turning vertical there won't be much left as we get closer to June 21st. Yet, i'm looking for seeds meeting this description: "Sativa-dominant Stealthy AutoFem"...
There ain't many strains corresponding to that selection criteria. So far i only have a very short list of possible candidates:
Dutch Passion, Taïga
Ministry of Cannabis, Angelmatic Fem.
Paradise Seeds, Automaria 2
Each of those is said to provide a "cerebral" high (Sativa-dominant) in opposition to a "body" high (medicinal Indica-dominant). Their Ruderalis heritage helps to limit height ("Stealthy") and i didn't find reviews where there was mention of a "strong" smell ("Stealthy"), which under the circumstances probably wouldn't be a cause of concern anyway due to the relative lack of light. Finally, i retained each of these strains because they are Feminised Auto-Flowering varieties: e.g. no need to control anything, hence no fancy harware required.
Obviously, i'm not after a potent harvest. I'd just want to see if it's possible to grow my favourite plant indoors just like it were any other decorative flower. I plan to use my veranda a lot this summer and it woud be great to have something nice to grow and pamper.

I dont see what the question is.. but it's very possible to do it from your veranda. I dont see what you meant by their wont be much sunlight left as we approach the summer solstice. That is when the light hours peak before decreasing towards the end of the season. What is the estimated time on the auto flowering strain from seed to harvest?

But yea you can definitely grow cannabis as if it were a basic houseplant.. just giving it water and making sure it has sunlight. That is all it needs. The extra more advanced aspects of growing is just to ensure good quality, yield, etc. I've had great success in the past just giving it water, a simple yet effective medium, and small amounts of organic feed.

Hi MDFinest,
It's a veranda with an opaque roof, this means on June 21st at 12:00 my whole veranda will be located under that roof's shadow...
As i recall, the strains i've mentioned have a life of about 2½ months.

Now that's the type of post i'm really pleased to read as i'm from Quebec/Canada (in the St-Laurent Valley) and the climate over here is most probably closer to yours than any cozy place in California where sunlight is abundant...
How would you describe your experience in terms of smell?
