Dosent it just suck???

Basements rock!! IMHO
As skink stated, build an enviroment, you can use really cheap materials, and get stunning results.
6 years ago, I had $500.00 bucks to use, for everything...my very first cut was a measley 67 grams dried packed away bud.
Now that same box, gives me 4-5 times a year 3-5 ounces...with 320 watts of light and wee blower!! About $25.00 a month to run.

Growing isnt that hard...ANYONE can grow pretty good stuff with some effort.
Now to grow GREAT things takes time and practice and PATIENCE and the following

your basement can be used but you have to pick an area AND CLEAN IT WITH BLEACH.
Trow up some MYLAR which you can get in any hydro store or on EBAY if your not near a store.
Set up some fluro lights for the clones....keep them as close as possible
If your starting with seeds...put them in a damp cloth inside a plastic bag.
COMPLETE DARKNESS and WARM....they will sprout
Put the tap root side DOWN in your medium...and give them LIGHT LIGHT LIGHT....fluros as close as possible 24 hours a day for a week or so wil be fine
Then they are ready to go under an HPS light. Veg em on 18 hours of light and 6 hours of darkness for 2 to 3 weeks..then kick them into flower
12 hours light on 12 off.
DURING THE OFF CYCLE ....dont let them get ANY LIGHT. ANY LIGHT THEY GET DURING THE OFF CYCLES will GREATLY slow down your process.
Watch the trics on the buds...when they start to get cloudy....and a bit amber they are DONE unless you want a complete COUCH LOCK which means let them go to all amber. Not my cup of tea so I like em with a touch of amber ONLY
Last cut the buds...do the trim work while they are wet...MUCH EASIER
Let them hang upside down until the stem can snap and not just bend...
Then stick em into Mason Jars for a week... Open the jars move the buds around 2 to 3 times per day. After that and your sure they are dry DRY
Then let them cure for about 2 weeks and BABOOOM...you have your own good smoke Peace out

Also I realize that I love the sacred herb to stay in Pgh much longer. Due to my present situation cant leave yet. But I plan on moving to cali and trying to get a permit to be a medical grower. In an ideal world I would also get to open a medical dispence club...but that might be pushing it.
I watch people get drunk and act like assholes.....and its perfectly legal
Funny that nobody I know that smokes acts anything like that and my NATURE herb is illegal. Just doesnt make sense to me
Anyway smoke em if ya got em....enjoy whats left of the weekend and stay safe :hippy:

Krippy, we have the same idea

I have legitimate medical condition as well, so oregon or cali is my choice. I'm hoping in 2-4 years to make that dream a reality... i may need a roommate !

Hey krippysmoker,
I still carry some of your ideas today. I purchased a tiny hunk of land in Colorado, about 10 years ago, when I thought they would go to a care giver status. I dont the need the shit, it just makes me a lot happier person. But with that said, I had to watch an old guy, die afraid, and in pain, as the family would not give me a letter stating they would not sue me, when old Toby died!! I would have lost evrything I own to help to help the guy, eas into his end.

Anyway, now I got decent skills, and do give a good bit away, but in all reality, if I could grow, keep what I wanted, and recoup my expense and make a decent salary....I'm in!!

But, it's miserable trying to talk to real care givers, doctors, with out someone scammming you!! We need a connection between docs and needers, not WANTERS...NEEDERS.

Good luck!!

Are you on the Philly NORML Boards???

[RobPA]

U know what makes me sick about this med-mj issue?? I have a disabled parent who has spinal neuropathy and his doctors would rather put him on heavy doses of oxycontin, then pretty much force him to take them cause if he dosent his Disability insurance will no longer cover him because they will ask why hes off the pain meds if he cant work. Then on top of that they piss test you to make sure you are taking the opiates, and if u piss positive for marijuana they will take away your perscription (and once again, how can he be off the pain meds and be in so much pain not to work?)!!! Can you tell me how that is fair?!

[ninfan77]

Bastard commonwealth state.. thats what.

All we can do is support norml and those who are trying to get MMJ to Pennsylvania.
