GhettoGrow - Beginners Journey to Harvest for less than $1500

Dude...you say 1500 budget, but dang...your electric bill must be high....I'm thinking the best way/most efficient way to do Ejuice is to make dry ice hash them rosin that...or can you use dry ice hash?

man , concentrates are expensive and hard to source in my market. Im not the guy to go looking either. I avoid the streets in things of this nature.
Dry ice hash or rosin would work tho, at least thats my story and Im sticking to it.
Thanks for the viewpoint.

Heres a pseudo-sog experiment, Im calling em the fuck it buckets, taking place in the bloom room.

the fuck it bucket has 6-7 sites in a 5 gal dwc bucket and Im gonna try a few things - namely collar/netpot/screen support aka no medium, then doing the same thing only using rw 1" cubes. as well as using netpots with a bottom and a sprinkle of hydroton. basically im not throwing out the weak clones, im gonna just give em a few days veg after rooting and see what happens.
ill use a screen if necessary at ~10-18" depending on what happens next. Im sure someones tried this out there and failed spectaculary, but who knows, maybe itll work out, either way , we'll just find out.

Fuck It , right ?

Pretty cool thread for a new grower / well actually a cool thread no matter what stage grower you are. I enjoyed the banter of words

Your gonna wanna jump on that shit now as it will take the fun out of growing ( talkin from experience here)

Anyways good luck sir

So heres an update on my budget :
Its cost me 1774$ so far to get set up and running.
Some stuff was necessary - lights , air pumps buckets etc
and others was optional like ducting and a failed swamp cooler ...
all in all I think anyone in the USA can get a great grow under the $1500 budget

And after harvest that investment comes back easily ......

nice work

I do hope so - Im not sure im gonna get even 2 zips per girl but we'll see
anywhizzl3 , its day 58 and with about 7-10 more days Ill be harvesting. Last night , I drained their nutes and began the flush.
I defoliated the bottom 2/3's of the girls and got some nice finger hash for my efforts.

Meanwhile , in the fuckit buckets , i decided to cut back the bottom third's while they are in stretch mode and try and clone the cuttings in my trusty bubble cloner. that may or may not pan out , but Fuckit , its a Bucket.

picked up some organic supplies yesterday and some mater cages today at $92

decided to let my star kush' go another week with nutes, they are continuing to grow and fill out , even into their 9th week.

Ima keep an eye on em and hell if they wanna go 11 weeks , were gonna go 11 weeks.
they have packed on so much more growth this last week , especially in their flush it was just a no brainer.

also , i scrapped the clones , i didnt think they would make it so i i pulled the plug , fuck it , it was just an experiment.

ill need to check but i think that puts us at $1864 [edit] for the ghetto grow so far - ill double check later and correct this post if im incorrect.
