Self-reliance is the real way to end the state
@Lucky Texan yeah my apartment gets no direct sunlight year-round.
@Bogs_Bunny still try some plans in pots. You'll be surprised at how much will still grow
@Bogs_Bunny Do you have somewhere you can fit a tote?
Oh nice, how did i miss this room... HI y'all
any one ever grow plants indoors? not talking about MJ but food plants like potatoes, carrots etc? i live in a apparment with no garden or balcony etc and ive been thinking of getting some UV lights for my 3d printer then thought about alternative uses.
That's the basis of hydroponics. The soil you use will be important even more so. I can't speak for growing plants inside but I have several seasons of growing plants landscaping.
Ive started lots of plants inddors, but never kepts more then some herbs or house plants inside.
I know if you have the room for a light set up its possible. Ive seen 10foot tomato plants grown inside plant stores here in the states. No idea how many lights where on it though
And if space is an issue, id stay with higher end plants, and not potatoes and carrots...
@kalebdenden you mean by a window?
I have grown a grapevine indoors, using red and blue LED grow lights. It never produced fruit (because it didn't go dormant) and it won't live for more than a few years, but it grew about 30 feet.
No just a tote
If you have a tote you can put a grow light in it and at least grow lettuce or spinach
I might have one around. Aren't grow lights expensive as hell though?
I got my LED grow lights for like $5 each
One of them broke right away, and I had to buy another (cheap import)
Like one $5 light per plant or how does that work?
Depends on how close the plants are. I'm looking on amazon now and they have both spotlight type bulbs (which is what I used) as well as a large square
Grow spotlight is like $16, and the big square is $36, but I'm sure some internet search magic can find better product/prices.
I seriously overestimated the price. I thought grow lights were $100-$300
Non-import commerical ones might be up there, but $50 looks like you could grow a good bit inside
https://morningchores.com/easiest-vegetables-to-grow/ seems pretty informative too
2000 watt 4ftxft full spectrum grow light is $310, for commericial hydroponic
+1 for lettuce. It has been stupid easy to grow
In my climate it grows like a weed
Specifically romaine lettuce
Apple trees survived the late snows and frosts
My dad mutilated my apple tree last year, it's still alive, but I hope it can finally bear fruit after 13 years
I still can't believe he seriously lopped off every single branch that was flowering
And that's why I took over all the food bearing plants this year
ye
@kalebdenden will any coffee grounds do?
For what
Nice potatoes btw @Thatotherguy
Ye
@kalebdenden the bluberry thing
