Strawberries are schweeeet!
I've tried my hand various organic veggies over the years and this helped me understand a fair bit about soil composition,
Micronutrients and the likes. I would agree that trying your hand at even a few seedlings on a windowsill or in a mini greenhouse in the garden will give you a cheap introduction to growing anything. It would be pretty embarrassing to be busted by the missus, friend, neighbour with a bunch of strawberries in a closet. Prolly just as much explaining needed there as a thick screen of buds.
Funny those environmental concerns. "Cultural differences", "lack of political will", "atmosphere of ignorance" it's the same all over the place.
Be good to see how it goes.
Thanks for the tip on carbon filters. I have no smell issues at the mo with a combo of a diy filter and some odour gel. Here's hoping it stays that way.

Genetic has nothing to do with similar growing conditions and results.
If you can grow a tomato plant you can literally repeat the same exact series of actions and inputs and replace the tomato with cannabis, quality flowers.
Yes, hops and strawberries have similar genetics but are nothing like cannabis in growing.
You cannot grow strawberries in a super soil concentrate, nor can you do it with hops.
Hops you MUST use trellising to grow properly, nothing like cannabis trellising. Vine VS bush or tree, not close enough.
Strawberries are nothing like bushes.
Tomatoes are close enough to cannabis' structure to loosely imitate the size shape.
I can use the same super soil concentrate, climate, lighting, and watering attention on tomatoes and cannabis.
Tomatoes are the best analog.
nutrient profiles are similar with tomatoes but thats it, if I watered my tomatoes like I water my weed id have a bunch of split tomatoes. I feed and water my jalapenos and bells the exact same as my weed. Any fruiting plant is good practice and will teach you a lot but just because you can stake some maters up under the sun doesnt mean you can manage a canopy and keep environmental factors in check under artificial light, not many people bust out a killer grow there first time, it takes practice, with actual weed
