My location is semi-rural. Used soil goes into the gully. Stems and whatnot either go under the mower or are burnt with the burnable trash ... during winter. No burn here in summer. cn

40 acres. 1/4 of it's swamp and I'm mostly surrounded by woods.

everything green left over besides woody stems gets ground up and processed into BHO
after the harvest, I just go in with a shop vac after sweeping the floor..
for some reason I like to dry out lengths of wood from the base of the plant to keep as souvenirs

i live in a sardine can neighborhood in the city. i don't really have room for a compost heap in my yard and burning it would be too obvious as there are about 50 apartments within 100 feet of my house. 3 deckers everywhere.
i till the dirt into the backyard and i chop up the twigs and dispose of them several ways. sometimes i bury them under the dirt. sometimes i put them in fast food bags and chuck 'em at the carwash when i vacuum my car. sometimes i'll put a small amount in my regular trash and dump out the cat box on top of it. it's not a big deal if they're chopped up real good and we don't have trash can pickup here. we have to buy expensive bags from the city and they don't even look at the bag when they toss it in the truck. the city bags are thin as hell so i black bag them before they go in the city bag. i spray ammonia or bleach on them so the cats and vermin don't tear them open and it's not a big deal. i flower under a single 400w hps so it's not like i'm discarding a jungle. all that matters is that the bag isn't overweight for the size used and that they can't hear recyclables clanging around in there. they don't give a fuck otherwise.
i have a "rot bucket" in the apartment that i keep some of the leaves and twigs in until there's no smell and the leaves are crumbly. i crumble them up and throw those out with the dirt.
to be honest it's an enormous chore. there's a slow kid next door that likes to come over and bullshit with me and i have to make sure he's not around when i do these things. from afar it would just look like plain ol' yard work.

Heard it first here, folks! If you're not 100% legal in your grow and you throw your stuff in the trash at your house, stop it! If the trash man knows, you think the cops can figure it out? As a rule I don't throw out ANYTHING used in my grow room into my home trash can. No stems, no soil bags, no spent plastic pots, NO FUCKING NUTRIENT JUGS!^^^^^^ jeeze I didn't know I was bothering you.
I used be the trash guy.People really oughtta double bag their crap.I know a ton of houses that dable in the art,from picking up their garbage.I know who you are !!!!!!
Sounds like everybody posting on this thread is properly disposing of shit, all you newbies out there...listen up! This is just as important as checking the PH of the water!
