OK guys, since the babyfucking reptojews are clearly trying to prevent us all from eating anything other than feces grown basedbean fluid, with the bugs our dead family members were fed to for desert, I figured I would make a thread on how to not die of starvation like a subhuman nig nog, without resorting to cannibalism and becoming jewish by DQ. I made that sentence really long because you all complain about reddit spacing so much. HAHA.
I am one of the leafs that lives in BC and knows how to grow primo bud, I put herbs and veggies and high light ornamental plants underneath my weed canopy. I have kept a Swedish Ivy alive ~30 years since the age of five. I also do nature aquariums and coral tanks.
Ask a high level greenthumb anything, about not dying of starvation during mass political upheaval and chaos by turning your bolt hole into a grow op. Also interested in discussing the politics of agricultural and DNA patents, and how it relates to the mass starvation and economic disparities throughout the world today.
Fun fact, one time I put this handsome doggo up on Tinder and he got two matches, and one of them wasn't even fat!
If you don't already know what grows well in your area, you're not going to figure it out in a hurry.
Another thing you won't be able to figure out is which vegetables to grow that will actually give calories.
If you think you can plant some carrots and tomatoes and peppers and survive, you're going to be disappointed when the SHTF.

all organic on my terrace. just getting started this cycle. gonna do some dill and basil and cucumbers and lettuce starting soon. gardening is a great way to spend my leisure time.
I live in BC and have been trying to grow weed in my greenhouse. However only two seeds sprouted out of the 8 I planted - after two weeks... I put them directly into high quality soil and gave them a decent amount of water.
I got the seeds at the gubmint store btw

Hemp field? A tad close together and no flowers.
Lincoln Wilson
I think you're supposed to sprout them first

The main thing you need to grow stuff is buckets. All the other shit you need is just laying around outside, all over the fucking place, so you can put pretty much get all the shit you need into buckets and take it home or to wherever your grow spot is.
You have no excuse not to go get like 5 buckets. I use food grade buckets because I'm paranoid about plastic shit getting into my plants. If you starve to death because you didn't buy buckets after I told you, fuck you.
>Northern pines in the background >cold climate implied that is going to be shit marijuana, might as well smoke rope.

Designer seeds often need to be babied while sprouting. Overbreeding sometimes causes germination techniques different from the one the breeder uses to kill the seeds.
I have good luck with peat pellets, putting the seed on its side, with the edge part down, since that is where it cracks and the root comes out.
Research a few methods and find what works for you, some people swear by rockwool, others do the paper towel thing. It's never 100% but you should be getting at least 4/5 seeds sprouting unless something is off.

I've been having the same problem, but with vegetable seeds. I discovered tonight it's because I didn't give them enough light. They need a lot of it; you can't stick the trays on shelves.

You yankees used to trade that shit for cocaine, pound for pound in the 90s. It's a photo taken in the morning, its 30c+ and sunny as fuck for 18 hours a day during the summer in BC, combined with marihuana's ideal natural habitat of arid mountain valleys.
There are two huge, world class seed banks in Vancouver that I know of, there's also this site called gurgle.com or something where I heard you can search for stuff like that really easy.

I have one acre of land with a 6 foot privacy fence completely surrounding it and lots of guns to protect what is inside of it, outside of city limits to boot. It's currently growing grass and weeds, and the soil is fuckin shit because there is a transcontinental gas pipeline going through it. I could probably get around that by using boxes with soil instead of plotting right into the ground.
I have pretty much everything I need to start growing food and feeding myself but I do not understand the plant-to-table dynamic, or how to preserve food after harvest. Do you have any knowledge about how to grow food for yourself and not waste tons of your space and time on food that spoils before you can harvest/eat all of it?
The next thing you want, if you can depend on the electricity in your area, is HID lighting. Even if you don't use it now, when the SHTF you can get enough food to feed yourself out of a spare room or a basement.
There are all kinds of fancy lights, don't get them, they're expensive or garbage or both. Go and get some used high bays. Everyone is upgrading to LED right now, and even though units like this are $300-$500 a piece, you can get them on the way to the dump for almost nothing.
I got 10 400w MH for $100 and 6 1000w HPS for $150. That is enough to cover about 1300-1500sqft of grow area with high light.
oh god shut the fuck up faggot, go back to posting your r/tinder shit on plebbit
embarrassment to my country

Special strains of hemp are perfect for fabrics and fiber. Money.
Ryder Cox
Hey where do I start if I want to learn to grow? I need a new hobby besides masturbation and video games
Jace Davis
I highly recommend Square Foot Gardening for newfags. You can grow so much with very little real estate. Also raised beds are the way to go unless you live somewhere with very good soil and drainage.
I can't get my nitrate down in my saltwater tank. Give me advice other than do a big water change.
Cooper Long
It is federally legal to grow four marijuana plants in Canada.
I got seeds from a botanist working on an indeterminate auto strain already. I have the DNA prototype for growing four stupid huge weed trees that never die, in my tent as I type. You haven't even heard rumors of the fucking level that I am on, I fucked Chad's sister.
you find it then instead of posting such amazing artwork. Ohh hey cool statue, I appreciate your artistic standards.
no srsly cant fucking find it
Levi Davis
I've already started a bunch of stuff and I'm doing the rest of the planting tomorrow or the day after(we got a shitload of rain last night so the soul's really wet). I should have a pretty decent yield for the three of us so lots to can and freeze. If I can keep my dad out of it we should be rolling along by mid May. Now I just need to find a hemp seed supplier.
pretty shallow sandbed, I have a refugium with chaeto algae in it, I have 2 chinese led box lights, the tank is a 65 gallon tall with a 20 gallon long as the sump.
Luke Gonzalez
Seconded. Easy to do, simple to follow, a good way to get the ins and outs of gardening for noobs.
David Bennett
What about growing in a controlled environment, like indoors with lights and ventilation and shit?
