Hi all!
The Thai government has recently allowed us to grow 6 plants at home to sell back to them for producing CBD oil.
Mrs Tossagun (Thai) is a complete novice, and I've (UK) been doing a LOT of reading and watching youtube vids- but still a complete novice to growing. We've both enjoyed smoking it! We want to grow high quality plants, high CBD (12%+ ) with good yields (500g+ dried per plant.) Space is not an issue - we are growing legally, and we both have green fingers, a huge garden and lot's of trees/flowers/fruits and veg growing. We would like to keep the smell out though!
Family members can join up and form a social enterprise. Mrs Tossagun has a VERY large family. We are starting slow - only us right now, but the aim is to eventually build a family owned indoor grow room and be producing kilos in the hundreds, potentially opening a cafe/store when recreational use eventually becomes legal. Quality organic, family grown MJ.
Current set up:
1 Mars Hydro ts600 LED light (100w)
1 Mars Hydro ts1000 LED light (150w - arriving tomorrow)
Smart pots (fabric 5/10+15 gallon pots)
Greenhouse (see pic)
Reflective mylar (arriving tomorrow)
SCROG nets x2
Hatari portable air conditioner
1 Thai Stick plant
1 Lemon Haze plant
We originally bought the ts600 for us to grow and smoke our own stash, and I started the Thai stick & Lemon haze off - No scrog/LST or anything to increase yield- I topped the lemon haze because Mrs Tossagun loves it and I thought it would increase her yield a bit - but then the government announced 2 weeks ago that we can grow and sell to them (6 plants per household). So now our plans have turned into a business!
I've attached pics
So my plan is to cover all the walls, floor and roof in mylar. I'm not sure how to keep the greenhouse cool though - the portable air conditioner lowers the temp 4/5 degrees or so but pushes the humidity up to 90%. Thailand is very hot - today it's 36 degrees celcius, and I can barely keep the greenhouse at 30. Dimensions of the greenhouse: Length 185cm, Width 120cm, Height 210cm. Greenhouse can be drilled through to create room for fans/ducting but I'm unsure what to get/do - charcoal filters and ducting sizes etc. I wanted to get a large grow tent but Mrs Tossagun splashed out on the greenhouse (around 1000 USD) to surprise me, and I'd like to try and make it work rather than tell her I think a grow tent would have been better. Love eh?
With regards to strains & lighting. Which strains should I be looking at and potential yields? We don't expect to be making a lot with our current lighting, hopefully with some topping/fimming and LST we can get close to the 2.2g per watt Mars Hydro advertise. We hope to be able to grow, sell and use the money to upgrade equipment each time. We have land we can build on eventually, but the aim is to use the greenhouse for a couple of grows and buy some commercial lights. One plant family start up!
Thank you very much for reading this, hopefully with your expertise and support, we can be successful!
