Hey guys and gals, so I don't know if the rest of the world has found out but our Constitutional Court ruled that it is now legal to grow and use Cannabis for personal use.
So now that it's legal, I'd like to start growing a couple of auto's. I have always wanted to grow my own as the local stuff is really dodgy. The cheap stuff can be toxic. One guy crushes up glass and adds it to the bank bag to make it look like the weed has more 'crystals'. We refer to that weed as "Eddie Swaz" as its a bad Swazi thats sold on a street named "Edward Street". Other than the glass shredding your lungs, the weed its self is pretty crappy. Another guy adds chemical steroids to his mix to increase the potency. Some others also add Tik (a worse form of meth) to make it addictive and to create a stronger high.
Unless you can find a reliable seller, this is pretty much what you have to settle with.
The plan is to either do outdoors or in a small 1.5m x 1.5m x 2m greenhouse as I don't want to spend thousands on setting up a decent indoor grow tent (import fees makes its unaffordable).
The biggest challenge is humidity. We have an average RH of 76% all year round. If I use a greenhouse, this will go up, but even so, 76% is quite high for flowering outdoors. I plan to start my grow around 12 October as I return back home from Shenzhen on 11 October.
Average temps for the time I plan to grow is 10ºC at night, some days dropping to 8ºC.
And day time average is around 26ºC sometimes peaking above 30ºC.
Day light hours are around 12 hours in October, going up to 14 Hours in December.
I am interested in growing Critical + 2.0 Auto or Amnesia XXL Auto.
This was based on strength, characteristics and yield.
Which would perform best or should I rather be looking at something else?
Plus, should I use a greenhouse with a fan to vent or should I grow in the open. If I choose a greenhouse, if need be, I can always hang a fluorescent light to extend the hours by 3 or 4.
Security is not an issue and I couldnt care less what my neighbors think, its legal now
