Making a poor man’s Volksgarden

[Budsbunny]

Hello all from Ontario Canada. I was, until recently, rather in the dark about medicinal cannabis and how to grow it yourself, until I started to get arthritis in my wrists (while flipping a house…) a few months ago.

In my search for a solution I stumbled on the Volksgarden and since I have a small hydroponic greenhouse myself, my curiosity was in “full ahead” mode. To clarify… I am “a bit” of an innovator, the last 19 years I have lived from my ideas, but am retired now, so the more technical part I can handle, but growing cannabis will be a huge learning curve I guess. (Although I am catching up....lol)

This week I will start a new post about the progress of my project, hope to see you all there, maybe you might learn something and hopefully I will learn (A LOT) from you!

Cheers!

Welcome, Buds!

Hi Remystemple,
Yes LOL, I was surprised as well.....Budsbunny was the first name I thought off and bingo!

Here is a preview of what I am doing. Just to show that I am not one of those bragging idiots on YouTube who make one small video of a project half done and never follow up after that.
The rest will be in the post of the project itself, hopefully I get some time for that one of these days, as working on this is just too damn nice!
Cheers!

Oh...forgot, believe it or not but this project I have scaled in at $250.00 MAX! (Canadian....heheheh)

Rotary gardening! Interesting for sure. It'll be great to have someone here posting results/yields to compare with conventional growing as well as vertical. I've followed it for a while. However, it always seems like too much specialized or custom gear, and a TON of effort.

Hope you find a way to make it more straight forward for the masses! That would be wicked groovy!
