This will be the beginning of the most efficient thread on this site. I will track a grow using only bag seed.

I will have a budget of $20. I will provide proof of purchases as well.

This idea was spawned by a crazy conversation spawned in the Live Chat.

so where exactly are you starting with this budget?????? do you already have a grow space created? is that gonna include the cost of lights, soil, pot, nutes, reflective material, etc.... prove to me that you can get all that shit under $20..... if its outside then thats a no brainer... if youre doing an inside grow with only $20, youre wasting your time and effort. regardless of some crazy stoned ass conversation you had with someone. how high were you when you were thinking about this? lol

Good luck! I am always up to follow an interesting grow! I know some posts have said it is impossible, but that would just make me try harder! It may be impossible.(I doubt it). I found a "Drop of Green" setup where a plant is being grown in a 24oz can using led and a small fan. His goal is 2 grams.

I'm actually stuck at work right now, but I will definitely give you more info on this thread as the evening progresses. I am planning on using the basics (air, water, light). I'm not planning on making a huge grow out of this. And, no, lol... I wasn't high when I accepted this challenge. I really am still a novice grower, but I have learned enough and I am confident enough that I can make this work by simply investing time in planning.

I do not plan on having my electric bill part of the equation. Haha.

Stick around. This isn't going to be that grow room that looks like a cum dumpster. I plan on making this look as slick as possible on a minimal budget.

I expect many of you to challenge the budget, but please don't jump to conclusions, and most importantly- Don't be rude. I encourage healthy debate, but I'd like to keep flame wars to a minimum.

I'm also open to suggestions! So, please give any suggestions you may have. I can't promise I'll go with them, but hell... for 20 bucks... you can try to setup your own rig and post your pics along with me.

I have good news too- I have a FlipHD cam, so I will be able to give you all some pretty healthy videos too!

There's no way to do it unless you cheat. By cheating I mean using your own light fixtures, using your own soil, using your own pots, etc.

I don't plan on using anything I already own. If anything, I may dumpster dive for extremely common items.... bottles, cups, etc, but fuck... who doesn't have some of the stuff laying around? I'm going to try to keep this grow as organic and green as possible.

Are you going to use free stuff around for the grow?
Or buy everythig for the grow with 20$?

Do you got money going on if you can do it or not?
