How do you choose your grow spot?

There's a lot of guys on this site that worked our whole lives, many have even fought in Vietnam and almost died for our country so that they can buy their own land and live by the rules. And then there is you who won't even go get a job and get your own land, you'd rather cheat your way up and grow on someone else's hard earned land. Idk why I just can't stand people like you. There should be a sticky thread right next to the "do not steal plants" one just for you.

sounds good to me. why not have a legal grow on your own land if you live in a legal state?

I've only ever grown on my own land, but that doesn't mean I have to be a dick with an agenda.

Do NOT pass through or invade someone's private land, make sure you have plenty of southern exposure and direct sun for at least 6 hours per day, a nearby source of fresh clean water or you'll have to pack it in, plant near other greenery or your plants will stick out like a sore thumb, don't plant in neat rows in the middle of a clearing, plant around the edges to blend in with native species. Avoid desert areas and those that dry out in summer, again fluorescent green plants surrounded by brown is your enemy. The harder it is to reach your plants, the better. Pack out what you pack in, do NOT pollute streams with nasty chemical run off, keep it organic, clean and safe.

Get hunting maps and avoid those areas as well as popular streams, creeks and rivers. Park where you vehicle can't be seen, cover your tracks when you enter and leave your plants, don't mash down vegetation or create a trail. Protect your young plants from deer.

And to be safe, plant in 2 or 3 different spots - if one site is compromised, you won't lose everything.

AND BE GOOD TO THE LAND!

Good luck and happy planting.

Glad I could help. I always grow on other folks land. But it is either timber company land or timber land owned by absentee land owners. And I never do anything to harm the land. I want to be able to come back next year. I own timber land myself, and I try to make my presence felt on my land. One thing I look for in a good grow spot is no traffic. Just by driving down all my three trail roads a couple times a month, I discourage growers from choosing my land.

In very particular order
#1. A spot far enough away from any road or atv trail, where there is open space among the thick unattractive growth, in certain situations you can create open spaces by cutting vines and small trees, vine or alder thickets can be modified into nice grow patches
#2. Water proximity if you have more than a few plants , or a strong back to haul 5gal buckets to water them ,
#3. Don't put all your plants in the same spot if you have more than a few
