[dj_precise]

just wondering? Id like to learn = )

[yourlilbaby]

this is skaterchic...

you plant a seed and vola!!

[speeDemon]

there should be instructions off the net.. my friend found about 40 pages.. just to grow. different techniques.. stuff u should avoid. ect..

[brandi]

my 14 year old brother has a few plants growing in his bathroom LOL... I'll ask him 4 u.. :hehe:

[oFFseT]

14!?!?!?! ahahahhahhhaha

[sidewayz luv]

I know how...if ya need some tips...just ask!!!

[Sh4n3]

i know how
i'm not willing to spend the money on the light.... cause if your not steadily growing like 10 plants while 10 clones are growing up (at least) then it wouldn't be worth it

[Ryan Ross]

What kind of money would you need to spend to grow like a plant or two?

[Sh4n3]

way more than you'd get in bud

you HAVE to get hps or metal halide lamps to get ANY yield at all almost... so right there your alreayd at 200 bux
then when.... fertz, wiring, fans, ionizer (they'll smell horrible), proper potting soil, light timer, electricity bill rise...

[Ryan Ross]

Damn... what the hell is an ionizer?

[Sh4n3]

something that you would put by your plants (ie. outside the closet door) so that your neighbors don't call the police :)

[brandi]

I always come across that equitment cheap.. we had al the equiotment u need for about 20-30 plants, we sold it other day for 200$ even bran new bulbs

[Ryan Ross]

Couldn't you do without the fan and the ionizer?

[dj_precise]

The reason i ask, cause i gotta way to power the equipment without having to use hydro.. And isnt the the reason people get caught?? Anyways... I have access to to some equipment that will power 5000W of power for 8-10 hours and can be self recharged... and no its not a generator. Ive had people already call to buy the shit from me and its hella expensive!

[Sh4n3]

it woiuld need to power your lights on a 24 hour cycle for at LEST a month or two

then it has to be on 12/12

[speeDemon]

nuclear engergy!. .haha .

To grow pot it will cost you alot of money! If you you dont want to germinate seeds & grow from scratch (which you dont), you'll have to find someone with clones, those will cost you either FREE, $5-$150 for HIGH QUALITY AAA Clones. So if you want to grow good pot, like pot thats sold to the states, your probally going top be paying top dollar for some clones off some major dude. Also you can never have enough Lights so more lights the merrier More lights=More $$$. Also Dont forget your $1300 Hydro bill!

thats not the only reason people get caught!! My buddys Girlfriend took the water pump out of the toliet (the pump connected to the grow show) & he ended up flooding his whole apartment. As soon as that happend Cops new right away & were there in like 1hr half, & theres many other stupid ways you can fuck up! But who cares if you get caught there just going to slap you on the rist Ive seen it happen many times!

Exactly

[brandi]

do it with sombody who has experience.

[brandi]

I think it would be nice to move out for 6 month and go out to the boonies and rent some barns/house and do a huge show.

a few of my freinds have and they were gone for 6 months and since they been back they both have bran new cars. partying , my buddie had over 30 G's for doing that

[jsinks]

I've been there done that. I just got released from prison a week ago For a felony count "Conspiracy to manufacture/cultivate marijuana and to possess with intent to distribute" fortunatly for me they dropped the other felony count "manufacture/cultivate marijuana and aiding and abetting". I got luckier than shit. My lawyer was the same one that defended the unabomber and I was able to haggle it down to 18months. However in the federal system (United States), I was looking at a maximum of 40 years per count. That potentually exposed me to an 80 year sentence for growing weed! My advice to you is don't tell one friegan person, I don't care if it's your sister or best friend. Because when there looken at 80yrs you never know what theyre capable of doing. Not to mention anyone you tell is guilty under the conspiracy law. So your really doing your friends and loved ones a favor by not telling them. They tried to get my girlfriend at the time but fortunatly she knew nothing other than I smoked a ton of weed and had a lot more cash than most people my age. She has since thanked me for not telling her anything every time she decided to ask questions.
I used to do the same things your friends are doing brandi. It is fun if you can get away with it. But just the fact that you know they went and did it worry's me. Not that you are going to say anything but it makes me wonder who else they told or who those people told.

To answer your question Dj Precise you can flower your plant with only 8 to 10 hours of light. However your plants would need to already have been vegatated into adults before you should begin flowering, and your buds would not get nearly as big as they would if you flowered them on a 12/12 light cycle. If I was you I would use them and than use regular power for the other 2 to 3 hours. 5000 watts is a lot of juice for one room. I would split that into to rooms. 2000 in one and 3000 in the other. If your trying to buy lights you have to remember that the plants use different types of light during their lifespans. During there vegatative stage (24hrs a day) they use more of the bluish green light from the spectrum. So you would want metal halide's. When they get big enough and you decide to switch them into flowering (12on/12off) also known as the budding cycle, your plants are going to need more of the orange and red spectrum. For this you will want HPS (high pressure sodium) lights. Although for my honest opinion, nothing can beat outdoors. The sun produces a million times more lumans than any light bulb could possibly put out. The advantage to indoor is the fact that you can control the environment(bugs, pests, tempature, Feeding, watering). In the Outdoors there are a few things you can't control but your plants would yield ten times as much rightous bud as a they would indoors. If you ever have any questions feel free to IM me. If I do not know the answer to your questions I know where to find it. A really good book you might want to buy is "growers guide" by Ed Rosenthal. It is the essential bible for all growers. I used to work for him and he knows his shit. :blunt:
