There will be some cost, I won't lie, but hopefully, it will provide savings in the long run. You're looking at a 3-5 month commitment per plant depending on strain, grow style and one of the biggest factors, light. There are quite a few more cost effective "hacks" you can employ. One of your biggest costs will be lighting. Keep an eye on this thread

EVERY PH SENSOR NEEDS PH STORAGE SOLUTION!!! If you are buying an expensive pen and not buying the cheap storage solution, then you are throwing money away. I use a cheap pen, but I also use storage solution. My cheap pens last a long time, and I can buy a few of them to check against each...

The newer post have the best chances of still being active sales but there are some decent lights out there for the budget conscious.

Thank you so much for the advice. I’m going to try to set something up, just need to find the room. I would like to try two grows, one inside, one out.

You can get setup pretty cheap I just wrote out a budget setup for a couple buds that want to start, same one I’m using for veg now but flowers well too.


Easy grow setup:

Grow Tent 48x24x60, 2x4 Grow... https://www.amazon.com/dp/B09GW7WVNV?ref=ppx_pop_mob_ap_share

2-3(2 will work, 3 will just work better) x DAKASON LED Grow Light 1500, Full... https://www.amazon.com/dp/B092PMWMGN?ref=ppx_pop_mob_ap_share (plug into power strip then plug power strip into light timer)

iGrowtek 4 Inch Inline... https://www.amazon.com/dp/B08B5V1QB4?ref=ppx_pop_mob_ap_share to exhaust the tent.

If concerned about smell use carbon filter hooked up to exhaust fan 4inch


4ish week veg 2-3 plants 3 or 5 gallon pots. Any premium organic potting soil will do, top dress with 1-2tbsp dr earth tomato food/gallon of soil, and an inch or 2 of worm castings, topdress once more when flip to flower and once more about halfway through.

I’d have been shitting myself lol, I’m just glad it was winter and the person that got it was honest enough to call ups and let them know they had the wrong house

I don't trust canada post at all. I live in a small town and they can not seem to read an address then though it's their only job. They send to the right house number, wrong street. Get packages sent with sign for option. I get worked up even thinking about them. Always tracking number with them.

Worst of all, try calling to talk to a supervisor at CP.

The old saying goes; You catch a lot more flies with honey than vinegar.

In other words, continuing to work with the seed bank by being polite but firm about your situation will usually get the results you're looking for. Screaming and cussing them might feel good for a second but you can kiss your money goodbye afterwards.

If you have the opportunity to grow your own you should definitely give it a try. Not only is it cheaper but it's a rewarding hobby!

Yeah, I know the saying. Unfortunately, the situation got the better of me.
I’m definitely going to try to grow again. I tried last year with a couple autoflowers, I didn’t have much luck

Growing is not that hard, dialing in your grow environment takes thought. Start small, get a tent/space, fans, exhaust, lights, timers, lights. There is an upfront cost but use kijii or ebay to get equipment. In canada, tons of people are leaving the grow scene as they have no green thumb and/or the profit has disappeared for grey/black market.

In a legal country, study and grow weed and save money. It starts with reputable seed banks. Make connections so you can share your product.

I have friends that can't give the weed away.

Thank you, I appreciate your advice. I’m going to try an outdoor grow this year. I have to try to find the room to grow the inside.

In canada if you grow outside, try the green mountain grape from ace seeds. It is super fast and will finish before the theives find your plant. It finishes in Sept at 45 lat and before the fall dew starts.

Ttystikk said it perfectly, You catch a lot more flies with honey than vinegar. I would try and soften the emails and state CP must have screwed up, be sorry and see if they can help you a little. If not, learn and move on. It's frustrating but life is full of other shit that requires your energy.

Thank you. I know, I was harsh, I was nice at the beginning and then things just kind of escalated. I did send an apology letter and changed my review. I get the things happen, as I stated it was more the lack of customer service.

If you need help growing, just personal message me. This site is good for making connections. If you are in canada, try the canada med patient section and find growers in your area.
