What's new

Cover, Concealment, And Camouflage

ordered a ghillie suit today, it will be sweet to use in the woods. For the wetlands i just wear my camo waders. The average person isnt going to notice a person in camo, much less a full ghillie. I was thinking about hiding in the bushes at the park, and scaring the shit out of people when they walk past.

I don't know about that, I would only use when if the heat was on and I am stupid to check on my plants and maybe harvest some. Fact is man, snipers use pairs so they always have one check out the others cammo job....ammo job.

Civilians are going to be in the area a lot differently then your cops or hunters. It depends what area you are in, if it's a park and a cop finds cammo on you that isn't good luck. I listen, that is the best part of this job. It's not strange to find some nut listening on a park bench. Most people walk on by, because they can hear your thoughts. Emotions get much more sensitive outside and they don't want that response.

Cammo is only good if you get caught and have to run or hide. I am not going to crawl my way all the way up to the grow, just to find out it's empty. I am looking at it from an energy perspective, no need wasting time being a perfect sniper growing pot.

Paranoia is an outdoor benefit, you get much more sensitive and your thinking is always ahead. Mix it to much with inner city data, and well you look like the DEA.

The DEA doesn't just go out into the woods and listen, they'd find tons of stoners talking about what ever they do!:cathug:

Nobody should be out there at night, when they are I can hear their cars. I also know the vulnerable locations and now how to scout my way around. Your all hard wired for this stuff, if you don't complicate it by trying to simplify. Go with your instincts, those are better off most of the time.

I am more worried about a deer scaring me, they do get spooked at night and can get mean.

I'm not telling any one to buy a ghillie suit yet wear one.. haha! good luck moving around in one. especially if you have to make a mad dash the burlap will get tangled on branches and it will be a mess. if you wear camo pants or shirts (bdu's) i don't think it looks too strange..

1. you could be hiking
2. you could be a hunter

i didn't write these, i copied and pasted them from another website. i cut a lot of stuff out of these articles before i post them and just put whats useful. all i have to say is blend in, if your growing off a biker trail then pose like a biker.. e.t.c.

"ghillie suits? are you guys serious? just buy a camou t-shirt and some pants. jesus christ. no wonder so many people are against pot growers."


how does a ghillie suit make people against pot growers? i'm not sitting here telling people how to set up and build land mines around they're grow as well as booby trap.. that's a whole different story.
take the points of making a ghillie suit and use it to camouflage your growing area as well as your equipment. that's the point i'm trying to make! your a serious hater man, i don't know what your problem is.

you get spotted in one of these sniper suites or seen acting like a commando, you are done, best to act like a normal person who is fishing, hunting, hiking, walking the dog, bird watching etc. act like you belong there.

best to do lots of research on your spots, figure out the best approach to your spot and back safely, work fast, leave no trash, trails, footprints or other traces of your presence, get the fuck out quick.

my 2 cents.

very true, keep it simple.

some people are making this hobby a lot more complicated than it needs to be. the idea of using ghillies when growing pot is ludicrous, IMO. you don't take criticism very well smokealot. the thought of someone running around in a ghillie suit on a 90 degree just makes me laugh. :toohot:

i wasnt going to run around in a ghillie suit! I have camo waders and camo clothes for hiking and walking through the swamp. Im getting the ghillie suit for bow hunting. If i was going to wear a suit while tending a grow it would only be in a close location where i can run and throw it on quick. Only used as an emergency camo. And for you this may be a hobby, but im sure me and many others consider a good outdoor harvest their bread and butter on making a living. :tiphat:

also wondering where in my post i said i was going to run around in a ghillie suit on a 90 degree day? Or even that i was going to wear it while i hike to my spots?

you need a new pair of glasses or you seriously need to get your eyes checked.. i never said run around in a ghillie suit, i'm saying take the principles of a ghillie suit to camo your grow spot and equipment. i'm not telling people to do anything, they could take the information and run with it any where they want. my principle is keep it simple & keep it safe, *hint* camouflage. i could take criticism quite well, also didn't you learn when the mod deleted your posts before? jeez!

ghillie suits? are you guys serious? just buy a camou t-shirt and some pants. jesus christ. no wonder so many people are against pot growers.




Okay smokeythebear, you are obviously really smart. How would having an emergency ghillie make people hate pot growers? Yeah its not the littering, trashing the land, or fertilizers. Its those motherfuckers with ghillie suits that are ruining it for everybody..

im just wondering how big your outdoor grow is? Because by the looks of your indoor grow its probably not that big.

maybe you should go through my whole gallery. i'm doing experiments with auto-flowering plants inside so i can take my knowledge of them and use it when i put 50 auto-flowering plants in a cornfield this summer.

i hope it goes good for you. Im really not the kind of person to start problems. I dont know why, but what you said just rubbed me the wrong way. If i was only growing 50 plants i wouldnt even consider a ghillie. But with much larger numbers i think it might be a good thing to have somewhere just in case things get ugly. You do your thing, i will do mine. have a nice day

you guys do know that size will out yield numbers, correct? only thing numbers is good for is if you don't have a secure area and are worried about someone finding them. i used to do tons of plants but have since calmed down and still pull the same amount year after year. less work and equal amount product.

edit: the 50 auto-flowers doesn't include the other 50 regular plants i'll be doing.
