thoughts on growing in a mobile home? 5K flip flop?

[still pluggin]

The trailer is brand new with a fairly good electric system.

My instinct is to say no nonetheless, because the fire hazard just seems too high to me.

What are your thoughts or experiences? Thanks!

i dont know much about trailers but why wouldn't it work? Might be suspicious if cops or anyone find out you run 10+k in a mobile home..

make sure its not in a trailer park

In Breaking Bad they cook meth in a trailer........

If you think you are going to set up 5k watts in a trailer then you might be smoking meth. Bad idea.

I lived in a trailer for awhile, and in my opinion, it would not be a good plan. You have the remember the thing was towed down the road at 60mph. There is no real good way to seal it up so the smell doesn't get out, short of building a room inside a room.

Not a good idea........

Don't see why it'd be any more of a fire hazard then a regular grow provided everything is ventilated and wired safely with the proper capacity service.

I know a few who crop out trailers.. not in trailer parks, but mobile home grows none the less. Guess it depends on your situation. I don't see anything wrong with tossing a few 1ks in a trailer. Now 10k? Might take some more balls, but nothing wrong with it if you do it right.


Electricity is a dead give-away.. but so it is in residential homes too if you're burning 10k watts. Hey.. you can do anything for 3 months.
Seal it up well/insulate.. noise is a larger concern. I think split AC would be more ideal then venting a larger grow.


From a legal stand point I'm unsure of the downside to trailer home vs. regular home so I cannot speak on that, but blowing up a trailer with HIDs is no problem provided you have the electrical capacity.


Just watch out for the shit hawks.

single wide or double wide?

I smoked some bud grown in a trailer in the woods, it was said to have bars on the windows. The bud sucked, allegedly white widow, fluffy, immature, leafy and spider mite infested crap. The rooms in trailers are small and really how much juice do you think cops arent going to care about in a trailer?

Most mobile homes come wired for 100 or 200 amp service, same as most small homes. Plenty for a safe grow. Not sure where other than electrical you'd worry about a fire risk. Every one of them has a gas, propane or electrical stove and oven as a matter of course; what causes more fire risk than that? Newer the mobile home, the safer its wired and insulated. Heck of a lot safer and easier than setting up a grow in a wooden shed.

It can be done. Take the wheels off If it makes you feel better I wouldnt do it w/o proper ventilation, and AC...Other than that.....Get her done!!
