I'm a Brit, living in a semi-rural area. Zone 11-12 and I'm a greenhouse grower. Mostly I grow a cultivar I created about 15 years ago, a cross between Black Domina (Nirvana Seeds, indica) and a landrace Acapulco Gold (sativa) I found here.

The greenhouse can hold a dozen or so plants easily, right now I have 9 in flower and a few little ones in no.6 pots (not in shot). These are all various expressions of my cultivar (F2 hybrids) and as you can see, most are hybrids, but what look like indicas and sativas are also being expressed. The foreground centre plant though, is Skunk #1.

Not yet. Sounds super nice. At 1,600m altitude I can manage that. My limit is 2,200 - above that I get altitude sickness.

Still a boomtown. I moved out to escape the pollution. Living there is like smoking a pack of cigarettes every day. Seriously... my lungs ached for days after I moved, just the same as when I gave up tobacco 25 years ago. It's a very safe city, though. The only people who get hurt are the gangsters, When I moved here, the ex-owner told me, "The people around here are really nice, you won't have any trouble. But if you ever DO have a problem, don't bother calling the police. Just call me. I have fourteen guys on my team..."

Hi, your plants are gorgeous. I'm thinking about it myself, would like to grow in my city, but I don't quite understand how expensive it is. For example is $1,000 enough, maybe you need more?
I just have a small amount of money right now, but I'm also considering borrowing additional funds cash advance if I really need it. It is very interesting to understand this area.

Spending $1,000 on growing is a lot, unless you intend setting up a high tech indoor grow! You can do it very cheaply if you need to. For instance, using a few sizes of plastic water pipe, pipe joints, glue, and thick plastic sheet, You can build a hoop greenhouse for 6 to 8 plants at quite a low cost.

There are some very good-looking girls here. Especially where I live, a lot of French people arrived very early in its history. The first day I arrived in Mexico I recall very well. I stayed in the Galeria Plaza near the DF airport. The hotel was packed with dazzling women. I said to the concierge, "If this is what the women are like here, I'm moving." He laughed and replied, "Señor, it is the finals of the Miss Latin America competition and all the ladies are staying at this hotel."
