Stealthy laundry basket „SGFC“
    #25046444 - 03/07/18 03:36 PM (5 years, 11 months ago)

So I‘m about to start with my first grow ever soon. Basically I wanted to go for the PF-Tek and I wanted to fruit in a SGFC. However, I have to do it stealthy and I can‘t seem to find a good spot to hide a regular SGFC. Now I had an idea, since my laundry basket seems perfect to hide something in there. I plan to colonize 10 cakes in wide mouth half pint jars.

This is my laundry basket:


My plan is to make something similar to a SGFC out of this. There‘s only one problem and that would be the space for 10 cakes in there. First of all I want to drill additional holes in there, especially because the holes seen on the picture aren‘t on every side. Maybe buying a basket out of wood or something would be easier, but couldn‘t wood get moldy from the humidity or something?? Anyways I would build in an additional ground from some kind of plate with holes in it, right above the real ground of the basket, for the airflow under it. To fix this plate I‘d bang some nails or drill some screws into the basket, right under the plate, from each side. Then I could add the perlite and approximately 4-5 cakes on this newly built in ground. Now I‘d do the same with one more plate above, for the remaining 4-5 cakes. One problem now would be that I couldn‘t see or reach the lower ground with the new one above. So I‘d have to construct something to lift the whole upper plate with the perlite on it out of the basket. I‘m sure that‘s possible somehow. Both spaces for the cakes, in between the different grounds, would be... I‘d guess 25-30cm? I think that should be enough. Even if I‘d grow some monsters, I‘m sure they‘d find their way. :smile:
Here‘s a rough sketch:

For additional stealth I could add one more ground above everything to put some clean laundry on it, just in case. I don‘t think anyone will ever open my laundry basket though. :grin:
And of course I‘d have to drill the holes into the basket in a way that they fit to the existing ones, otherwise it would look really fucked up.

Do you think that this is actually realistic and could work?

The other plan would be to make a real SGFC and hide it in my closet, but then I‘d have to drill holes into the back of the closet for enough FAE. :shocked:

If you have to hide it you shouldn't be doing it.

Wait until you move out of your parents house or college or whatever and you have your own property and possessions to risk.

Besides sounds like through hiding it you'll lose all your fae

Dude, you're way over thinking this. A SGFC is the least stealth operation you could have.

do you BRF cakes, then spawn them to bulk in a shoebox. Hide the shoebox.

You'll have bigger yields. It'll take up less space. It's easier to hide, easier to grow, easier almost everything. Will just take a little longer to get your fruits, maybe an extra week to 10 days.

Maybe I‘m really overthinking this :grin:
Fruiting in vitro could be another option for me I guess.

Yes, invitro is another option, but is ugly, pain in the arse to harvest, you get less yield. Not worth it in my opinion

You might consider doing fewer cakes and spawning them to coir in a shoe box...they're small, require little maintenance and are somewhat inconspicuous.
