I'm guessing with the small plant counts the best way is to grow trees with multiple verticle lights then...
Exactly. Seal your room and put an under current system in, your mother would appreciate the lower price of fertilizers and only changing nutes once a month or so. Grow trees. I've seen a picture from a local that shows a large 7 foot hash plant scrogged to a 5x7' screen under two 1000 watt bulbs in upgraded reflectors.
Side note- The person who built my brothers' basement recently decided that his work is worth double than what we agreed to and paid him for. Argument followed, then the guy says to watch our back because him and his buddies would 'get even'. He was stupid enough to text some of the threats as well. I felt the only choice after the threats of breaking in and violence was going to the police. Aurora sent two officers over, a report was created, and the cops would question the other individual. He added that 95% of the time a phone call from a cop will stop threats of further illegal activity or violence.
The cops were prompt, courteous, and professional, and didn't give a shit about the green. I believe the comment was something like, 'As long as you are not creating a disturbance etc then you won't likely be charged with marijuana related offenses. They were more concerned about the threats and the individuals who made them.
Also, the cops said they are recognizing higher plant counts and aren't making a huge deal if someone is growing 6 medical plants with proper docs and 6 recreational plants. He could be lying or misinformed, but I doubt it. Said higher counts up to about 30 are generally ignored.
Obviously your mileage may vary.
TL;DR- Had to call cops on an old partner that was making threats, cops were great and cooperative and totally willing to help out on a specific marijuana transaction.
