A lot more than most people think Harry,its down to the nerve of the individual,their competency and their attitude.

amen to that brother
I heard of someone putting £300 a week in a keymeter in his local corner shop, no problems.

Interesting...and how do folks think these smart meters might affect things?

Depends if they are nicking their lecky or not.
You're probably right. Pay your bill and no one cares.
Sod that indoor game, been looking for a commercial grow facility for a few years, it's going to be outdoors! I have the right hybrid that will perform outstanding in snow!
Its a fact that the light deprived greenhouse grown makes the profit, it's just finding the place.
I even thought about planting out a unheated abandoned one I found in spring that was under maintenance. I discovered this place being refurbished, having a reception built and a car park. The tunnels and houses were abandoned and empty and with no sign of technicians on site. By the looks of things I may have gotten away with growing it.
I have thought this through many times and if I find an appropriate place I will buy the business and just do one quick SOG harvest a year out the best glasshouse and still run the business as it was with new staff.

Nice to hear peoples thoughts on this. Problem solving/inventiveness ingenuity. Great stuff.
This hybrid sounds cool, Dave. What is it?

It is a cutting I acquired from an old-timer who has made his money and since moved to pastures new, (abroad) I now look after it for him in return for a few trays of cuttings produced on request when needed.
Hand delivered to a remote location.
I have no idea of its origin, provenance or its lineage.
I know cold doesn't affect or hinder growth and it finishes outside nicely by the first week in November worst case or earlier if grown under protection, all this is dependent on where you are in the UK geographically.
It grows out big if left with a typical growth pattern in flower which puts energy into producing a long slender central cola forming a full crown at the base of the main stem.
I was advised to let it grow out and not top it but flower after pruning to prevent the lower leaders falling to the ground and divert all the hormones to the main leader in doing so.
A clone with lots of Sativa genetics, it is very hairy with thick white pistils which turn orange, the buds are the typical hard dense nuggets usually associated with either a NL or SK#1 line and are very pale green. The leaves usually turn purple regardless of temprature but low temps will bring out the purple, it is light leaved not dark in normal health.
It hasn’t got the most potent odour and has good resistance to botrytis and spider mite.
The calyx to leaf ratio is also good in cold conditions, buds grow dense with good resin coverage, and quality is usually incomparable between samples of tops and mids grown under glass apart from the cola size.

Shame you don't know what it is.
Ever run her indoors?

Dave, This is an interesting take on things.
How does one deal with the associated smell of such a large grow? Do you simply upscale fans and scrubbers to commercial scales?
Reason I ask, there was a salad place doing a huge run of tomatoes with Canna mixed in. Apparently they thought the tomoato smell would be enough to mask their chosen 'low odor' strain. Not so, community Bobby cycling past thought he'd 'stumbled across a hippy commune.' The stink was so overpowering.

I have grown a few outdoor strains where a plot of 100+ plants couldnt be detected from 40 yards,this year did a plot of 100 clones,50 of which were cheese kush,these could be detected from 100 yards away.

Making me really think about a big outdoor plot...
Well if you grow outside the rule is to have more than one basket of eggs if you know what I mean. Plant out more than could ever be harvested by yourself and your half way there.
Smell is not going to be an issue growing on cliff tops and exposed scar tissue like moraines on the land that people never visit!
I have grown for near a decade in an Attic with no ventilation, the bobbys always walk by and it reeks of cheese. In the Best area !
If I get caught I get caught, I have what to say all worked out beforehand and will inform my solicitor that her services are required.
You wont stop the smell ever unless your only growing a 9 bar total, none of that smell eradication stuff is going to help, I need luck! This stuff really works!!! Trimming is what gets you busted, that and bad site choice.
I was talking with an owner of a very large facility about a possible job managing one of the many herbaceous perennial nursery’s he had dotted about the UK, it seems that he has inspections quite regularly, it would be wise not to grow weed in a nursery which is part of a chain that has buyers coming and going all the time and health inspectors overseeing due-diligence in food production areas. We will see what comes available in the new year
The water given off by hanging the plants is what worries me so they will be hung in a refrigerated lorry.
Lots of blowers, plenty of the largest carbon filter & fan combos powerful enough to rattle the glass or flex the plastic, while running the fans between 2 filters.

No need to think about it
