I live in the south and I only grow in the winter due to heat issues.I have a room that is approximately 3x4x4h and although i have to grow smaller plants ,i still manage a respectful harvest.I have developed a system by which I start from seeds ,eliminate the males and flower the girls,harvest ,but leave a little growth and turn the light cycle back up to 18/6 and veg them all over again.Doing it this way ,I can harvest 3 crops per year.Bottom line is simply this ...if you have a solveable problem ,solve it and move on.every individual circumstance dictates what that solution is.Mine is a good situation inspite of being right in the middle of a city.Stealth grow ops are actually easy if you understand human nature.The last place they expect to find something is the last place they'll look for it.
