I've been living in a desert for a little over a year now and i was wondering if anyone has experience growing in a desert. I dont want to grow during the summer because it gets 120 degrees and i plan to spread my plants out a mile or so from my house and that would just be hell on me having to bring water so often.
So i've been thinking about growing during the winter months when it is 70 to 80 degree weather here. I still need to do more research on when it frosts here but i think the frost here is just a weak frost and not enough to kill a plant(if it even does frost). But i have also been reading that for flowing to trigger the days have to become shorter and the nights longer so i was wondering if i planted in the winter and the days started to get longer if it would have an effect on the plant?
Any advice or suggestions on how i should go about this i would really apprieciet. Im doing it all myself and i plan on having 20 to 30 plants spread out. Its gonna be hell on me hiking to water them but im 23 years old and im in good physical condition so i think i can handle it. Obviously i need to either plant soil or use buckets or pots since the ground is rock and sand around me. So yeah i have some time labor and money to invest for this
now i will tell you why im planing to grow maybe some people can relate, Im from back east and i had a bunch of great connections and now im in a totally differnt place going through 18 year olds to get my stuff and they are just the middle men and nobody wants to just introduce me to someone. Getting taxed and treated like im just some no nothing hick.. im just tired of being looked at like im just that other guy. But besides all that i grew a few plants when i was younger and it is truely amazing to watch and it makes you happy too haha i use to talk to my plants. Anyways im still a newbie at growing i only grew one plant that actually had buds on it so you will see more of me around here probly asking some stupid questions but i hope that the people on this site is chill and could provide some good help. thanks! :D
