So I posted this awhile ago but idk if my question was answered fully. So I just got a po box yesterday. I got home ordered some Roots Organics soil etc for subcools recipe 230$ . Then I got another like 8-10 items needing ordered. Now all my ordering is off amazon since eBay 99% wont ship to po boxes. Now my question is do you think they'll think somethings up if I order like 20things and have it shipped to my po box as soon as I opened it? Need some help I don't wanna get caught but I also am on a time frame and need my room built and babies in soil by Xmas. I got the money for my shit but my order consists of 2 fans,hood,filter,super mh,fan controller, rope ratchet, ballast, Mylar roll. So what should I do? Aslo you think ordering soil to a po box is bad?

whats the point of having a P.O box if your not gonna have stuff sent there.

its not illegal to ship a buncha stuff to a P.O box, its none of there business what you are ordering nor do they care.

I would assume that that's what most people do when they open a PO Box. No one buys a PO Box and then lets it sit there - PO Boxes are normally used for small businesses, and since you're ordering off of Amazon, who's name is usually on every box they send out, I doubt anyone at the post office is going to give two shits.

Don't get a PO Box find a UPS store that has mail boxes. It's the same thing except you get an actual street address you can have anything shipped to. I've had a mailbox at my local UPS store for over a year and I love it. They usually give you a discount on shit too when you have a box with them.

What's the difference I mean a their both places that will accept packages and is you reasoning for telling me to get a mailbox at ups is only because of items being able to be mailed to it then that's ok cuz I found all my items on amazon and I checked if they can be shipped. But only concern of mine is being low key and no flags.

Yep, UPSstore, MailboxesETC, any of those places is better than a USPS box. But your locked in now, so chillax, they could care less about your, how many packages you receive, etc etc etc. As far as I know, as long as the items you receive are legally allowed to be sent through the USPS, then you have no problem.

Enough for the entire recipe except Epsom salts and lime but I can get that locally. But ya I went to 9 different stores yesterday looking for soil and no one in my area of 100 mile radius carries jack shit but miracle grow. So I was like fuck it bought it all from amazon Roots organic to humid acid. Ya the most expensive part was the bags of roots like 30-40$ ea. 10 pound bag. But ya I didn't want to pay like 300$ total for organic soil either but I didn't wanna use fox farms or hydro so I decided to invest a little for quality.

People typically look more intently if you look as though you are hiding something.

Not a bad thing to be a little paranoid but keep in mind that you are ordering stuff that has normal/ innocent use. Just don't make it weird, lol.

IDK your situation but for me I'm a medical patient. I don't run around yelling that I grow I just keep it out of plain site. On the other hand I have deliveries to my house all the time.

One more thing if you used your real ID when you opened the PO box I really don't think it matters and would probably just ship to my house. Just me though. You have to do what is best for you.

Ya well my current residence would be impossible to ship to because im trying to hide it from the people at home. But ya its in my name id and all. I think ima order my shit then if they ask or comment at all ill be like im ordering Xmas presents during the black Friday deals. Because if I order my last 8 items now then boom it'll all be before black Friday and ill have an excuse plus all ill need to order after that is my seeds and I can wait awhile before I do that since super soil takes 30 days

Large drug ops move cash and product through the mail, Your legal equipment won't raise any alarms. Plus like you said, its holiday season. The amount of packages
they see in a day during these next few months. More than anything you're lucky if you get it on time :p and that is about it.

Just make sure that where you're ordering from does discrete packaging. You don't want a great big "Dick and Harry's Marijuana Grow It Yourself Kit!" in flaming red text all over the box.
