So, I been meaning to ask you about a home setup. I wanted to start simple and build up over time. Like, how simple can I start and still expect a yield? I'd be growing inside pretty exclusively. I've got a bunch of grow lights for starting seeds and equipment to match. Could I just drop a seed in a pot and mind my light timing?
Just watering into a mat, I upgraded over time to an auto draining system, an auto watering system, still needed to hand mix, but it pumped the water to the pots and back out by itself.
What the final setup was before moving to tents. Tents I just moved the plants to the tub to water and back. You should water to a 15% runoff, so the extra needs to go somewhere. Theres plenty of other ways to water soil, and even more other ways to grow as well, coco, hydro, aero, kratky etc.
I love self sufficient setups like that. Everything working in harmony chefs kiss sometimes though, money and technology prevail. I dunno if I just had a brown thumb for soil indoor, or I was overthinking things, but my aero results speak for themselves.
Sometimes, some people just can’t do something, no sense dwelling on it, just move on.
If you can grow tomatoes you can grow cannabis, very similar reactions to stress, lots of people use them for analogs for testing.
You want simple? I don’t think it gets simpler than a Space bucket .
With soil you can definitely do that, some people even initiate 12/12 from germination for fast quick harvests. Usually you veg it on an 18 on 6 off schedule for a month of growth first.
Lol, I did that last year. I put 13 vines in the ground like an idiot. I had the space (questionably) but I did not have the stomach. I wish I woulda picked up canning by now
Oh jeez I wish I had that problem, I know I’ve mentioned it many times….

I did get some jaleponos and other ones, but I think those were a milder one, never ripened before the first got her. You can see the anthocyanins on some of the peppers from the cold starting to creep in on the sept one.
And yes I know probably shoulda of cared for them better, I’m learning.
