Carcass' $150 Low Budget Grow 2019

[DeanWest89]

Right on man , I was always a smoker till recently, got introduced to some canabutter with coconut butter , and made with high grade bud , just a teaspoon and an hour goes by and then you feel nice , it helps me sleep. I find smoking I’m starting to get munchies all the time no matter the strain and I’m putting weight on because of it. But I do prefer to smoke aswell, I’ve never made the butter myself but watched someone before.

 

[Carcass]

It's odd,but since I've gotten older,I don't really get the munchies--
red eyes, dry mouth, stupid look on my face,....I still get those,just no munchies.

 

[Carcass]

The way you wrote OK on your fan is funny

When you buy fans at the dollar store,I've found that there's about a 50/50 chance that they're wired backwards...so "ok" actually means it didn't work at first,but it does now...

Had my first fan casualty on Friday,after running 24/7 for 100 days,it ate a bearing
and squealed to a stop....I guess they just don't make $2.00 fans like they used to...

I hear yah bud , idk why I get them. I just turned 30 and I defiantly get the munchies , some strains I don’t . But once I start it’s hard to stop my brother ddd

Sorry guys I was half asleep and I accidentally sent it before checking it over , “ hard to stop once I start

You have definitely covered costs there mate! Peyote and northern lights look great. Northern lighys is definetly on the upcoming to-do list. Good luck not that you need it.

 

[Carcass]

Thank you,Curious...I'll take any luck I can get- I hope I used up all my bad luck a month ago when
both my young plants turned out male,so fingers crossed for this new round...

Have you considered making oil for lotions? There is a lot you can do with your trimmings.
I'm only in my 40s but I have had arthritis in my knees since I was in my 20s. I'm going to be making some salve or lotion after this run.

 

[Carcass]

Mrs. carcass has used some thc/cbd salve from the dispensary,and it works for her-I've never considered making any,but that's a good idea-smoke is pretty expensive at the dispensary,but the salves and tinctures are just unreal price-wise.
I think I will look into making some of my own,Thanks for the idea,VG

You don’t buy feminized ?! I would only buy regular if I had the intent to breed , nothing worse then working hard on a plant to figure sex , but to each their own right

 

[Carcass]

I do now-I got the "feminized" from my son a few years ago ,and just bagseed till this grow-I've decided that good genetics are worth every penny-the 2 I've got going right now are doing better than any I've ever grown-they are fast!

I would rather not ever have to buy that seed again, but I would also like to regrow it any time I wish. For this huge convenience, I am happy to "work hard" to figure sex... its almost like it takes no effort at all. Its not like you have to do anything extra to determine which ones are boys and which are girls.
I guess you don't understand that when I run regulars, I run 5 or 10 of them right off the bat... and those 5 or 10 turn into hundreds. Out of those 5 or 10, I get the females I will run to flower, I get my males, and I get a female that will produce seeds. Extra effort as compared to starting a group of feminized?? Hardly any. You guys are making this too hard.

Well said @Emilya

 

[DeanWest89]

I would love to be able to do that I just don’t have the space , we are only allowed 4 plants legally, so searching for sex really isn’t an option for me, I have kids and I’m not willing to go outside the limit of 4 to jeopardize anything. So for me buying feminized seeds is the best option. It guarantees the 4 I plant are going to give me something in return. Maybe if the laws change I would plant 10 for find 5 but it’s against the law where I live to have more then 4 per household. One day I would love to be able to do a pheno hunt and find the prize pheno, take cuttings and just run the clones as mothers.

 

[DeanWest89]

I completely understand why you do it thoe , it just doesn’t work for me. Technology improves everyday , and if I can guarantee everyseed is going to be female, and you can clone as much as you want. Breeding is a different story. Regular seeds just seem Ike a lot of extra work just to throw the males out if your not breeding.

 

[Carcass]

Yeah,with my 4 square feet of space,I need to make all 4 of them productive-I've
been down the "too many males,so now I've got nothing" road.....didn't like it.
I harvested pollen from the Northern LightsXBig Bud male that I ended up with,so I'll get some seeds from my current grow (hopefully not too many) when I pollinate a few small buds.
The LowRyder that I just harvested also has some "on purpose" seeds in one bud,so I'll have those also.
I just need something a bit bigger to grow them in...

Yeah I hear you @carcass i hope they let us have more then 4 plants legally or if I can obtain a lisence to grow more I would love to start oheno hunting feminized seeds . Pop 5 take clones before flower and whatever one really sparks my interest on visual structure and smoke quality I would make that my mother and eventually have 1 indica 1 sativa and a nice hybrid but depending on how many I would be allowed to have I could have 10 prized mothers the possibility’s are endless . I’m just trying to stay within the laws here in Ontario

 

[Tomuk17]

Atleast your allowed 4 plants legally, not allowed any in the UK

 

[Emilya Green]

Here they are going to allow 6 mature plants, and 6 immature plants and since I am planning on destroying probably half of the run once they turn out to be males, I am comfortable in starting 10 plants. I understand your reasoning though, and your need to spend a lot more on seeds than I ever will.
