. . . . . . . .First season will be hit or miss as of the moment, I’ll have to save up for the entire year. This can be done though! For a 100k home down payment 10-20% 10-20k saved up yea? And do you have a link for the uk/ Irish grow threads please? Thank you, also I have A French passport so no problem there for the work visa
Sorry, I was thinking you were looking for a farm situation. If you are going to grow gorilla, I guess you will be working at a job too? I would try hard to find the right job, a good place to live, then find the woods to grow in. I've only seen Europe from the ports, so don't really know about land use, national parks, nature preserves, that sort of thing.

Larry I appreciate the links my guy, coming in big time! Yea the plan would be working a job and having an apt setup, and a patch out in some woods out there, lots of sunshine and warm dry weather there in Spain. Gotta worry abt prying eyes and sticky fingers though, so good guérilla to planning will be needed. But a farmhouse with some land, that could very well be a good situation too, might have to make that season two or three WHEN season one proves to be a profitable year.

Yea man that’s what I’m trying to go for and a bunch of worm castings too, I was thinking about ordering a Bunch of supplies from kid organically or buildasoil, but if I move to Spain the shipping costs might be a bit high, so I might wait til I get out there and try to source locally
I'm A big fan of sheep poo, can pretty much use it straight off the paddock after just a little aging.

Diotomacious earth is also great for water retention and feeding the microbes and roots as it's very high in silica which will give you strong roots, branches, and derma.

Awesome man thanks for the input, what about horse or cow poo? Is there such a thing as too much animal poop in the soil? And yea I see nothing but good things about diatomaceous earth

I remember the grows I did under the cob light they came out a bit fluffy, bag appeal was there, but the high was kinda short lived, just didn’t quite have that mortal kombat kick and I was using biobizz nutes
Probably chopped too early.. Moving somewhere to grow if you're not able to grow anything anyone would buy :? idk man.. Not trying to be a dick but gotta take it in baby steps.. You wanna know you can grow before you take a jump like that.. Good luck!:eyesmoke:

No offense taken 8-) it still moved i just think i could always improve type thing, plus throw some mau5 pucks or chilled boards in with the cobs it would’ve killed! But i did do some cinderella jack and glueberry autos from Dutch passion on the balcony, the glueberry was hittin especially nice :bigjoint:

hey RIU how’s it going? Big question for the burning desire of a good friend. What would be the estimated start up costs of a outdoor grow op out in Spain.. looking to supply the private clubs in some possible locations, near French border, Barcelona, Mallorca, marbella. Preferably out in the woods or up in the mountains. This includes everything, moving expenses, living, etc. I know it’s kind of vague but i just want to hear your responses, thanks!!
Well.. This is possibly the most vague question I've seen in a while. Tell your friend to get researching instead of pissing around.

Ah yes it was designed to be vague on purpose, a lot of research and outreach has been made already, and as previously stated the move won’t be made for another year or two anyways. But if more specification is needed.... HOW much would it cost and just as importantly WHERE to source all the materials for an organic no-till guérilla patch preferably in the catalunya or Valencia regions of Spain. Catalunya being home to Barcelona- a place with over 200 cannabis social clubs, many of which are always looking for growers with top flower. As well as home to the Pyrenees mountains. No till, meaning no bottled nutes, dry soil amendments and some beneficial bacteria only. Finding a patch of forest in the mountains or along a stream with rich loamy soil that can be amended easily and away from prying eyes and sticky fingers. Or as my guy Larry pointed out, buying up some farmland, obviously this would increase costs a lot. Hope this clears up some of the vagueness for you
