I can’t grow shit but weed lol

If I grew weed it would probably be trash quality lol.

Just hoard fishcock and groats

This has been my sole contribution to this channel

@Deleted User You have no direct light or what?

Plenty of plants will grow with non direct light, just might be a little slower or smaller. But others will do fine

When I lived in an apartment, I had 5 - 5 gallon buckets that grew all kinds of veggies. My balcony only had a couple hours of direct sun at best. But the sun reflected of the building next to mine, and the plants did great.

Tomato and pepper section

Self-reliance is the real way to end the state

@Lucky Texan yeah my apartment gets no direct sunlight year-round.

@Deleted User still try some plans in pots. You'll be surprised at how much will still grow

@Deleted User 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...

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 got my LED grow lights for like $5 each

One of them broke right away, and I had to buy another (cheap import)

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.

Non-import commerical ones might be up there, but $50 looks like you could grow a good bit inside

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

@pathenryv2 will any coffee grounds do?

For what

Nice potatoes btw @Thatotherguy

Ye

@pathenryv2 the bluberry thing

Oh yeah any coffee grounds

When you water them into the soil it will add acidity

Do they have to be mixed into a liquid?

No

Put it on like mulch

In October I'm gonna make some hot sauce, and I'm actually planning on making a company for it.

It's gonna be called Hand Kind Hot Sauce

I'm working on a recipe right now for a sticky blueberry sauce called "Blue Glue" as a reference to the b ga o

Is this fine

Why did you put rock on top

It looks kind of rough

Ye

First thought is water at night

And don’t overwater

Ok

I’ve been watering in the afternoon when the sun is obstructed by the building

That plant is fucked man.

I'd recommend using some fertilizer

Rate my orange tree

10/10 nice

it is indeed nice

Nice

@pathenryv2 what temp would be most optimal for it? It’s a Japanese variety

Ichiban

I guess I have to call it a green tree because those oranges are green...

Idk I haven’t grown eggplant honestly

Ok

I grew eggplant one year, it went really well, was pretty easy.

Tips? @Rawhide

I didn't grow in pots, and I didn't start from seed. But I do know that plants in pots can get bound up a bit

I mulched a lot tho, just used grass clippings I mowed.

I have used the cloth pots that keep the roots from balling up, but I used those for starting grapevines.

Ah

Those things are magic

This is the only food related channel I can find, I had to share this with someone

> This is the only food related channel I can find, I had to share this with someone @Remnant is that chicken?!

Pork? Honestly have no clue but it's something medium rare that shouldn't be medium rare

Ummm

Rice

I prefer my turkey medium rare

so I'm looking to get a good sear in my...steak

I want to cook it up at home, instead of using a professional facility. Any suggestions?

Pan searing with butter and thyme is good

Just a bit of salt and pepper on the steak

Nice

Very nice indeed

Anyone got any tips on growing tobacco cause once I get back on my feet I’m buying a good bit of land and living off the grid

https://youtu.be/SHNFMAFRu-Q

Tobacco could be a good source of money I reckon

Then again, that's me talking, and I don't use tobacco so my only use for it would be selling it

I use it because I’m so heavily addicted I’ve tried to quit but I’ve only stopped the dipping side of it but cigs it’s hard for me
