AZ Cannabis Law

 AZ allows six growing plants per adult in a household. My 2022 grow currently has twelve plants in the flower stage, six for me and six for MsBubba.  Our main grow tent is 4'X4' with an overflow 2'X4' tent. The lights are LED, two 300 watt Platinum brand and two 100 watt Vivosun lamps. The Platinum lights are in the 4'X4' tent and the Vivosun's are in the 2'X4'overflow tent.

The main tent just before moving four of the plants to the overflow tent:

 

Included in this grow are three WhiteWindow photo, one WeddingCake photo, three JackHerer auto, two SeedmanLemon  auto, and three OGKush auto,  Because the WhiteWindow and WeddingCake are photo-period plants the main tent is on a 12/12 hour light/dark schedule. The overflow tent has all auto plants so it is on a 18/6 light/dark schedule. 

My best guess is the Seedman Lemon will be ready to harvest the first week of April, followed by the three OG Kush and Jack Herer near the first of May. The White Window and Wedding Cake will push right up to our departure for Oregon the last week of May and may need to be harvested early or left behind for a friend to harvest.

While some of the flower will be dried and cured for smoking bud, most will be used to make Tincture. Tincture has several advantages over smoke, in a dark bottle and kept in the freezer it has an almost unlimited shelf life and it is ready to make gummies when needed or can be used directly. Both Tincture and gummies work well and do not require inhaling smoke. Used together a Tincture high can be almost as fast as smoking and a gummies high will last longer than smoking, kinda the best of all worlds.

BTW, I'm already planning my 2023 grow. My current thinking is a three plant Durban Poison (Sativa Land Race) outdoor grow with a nine plant tent grow. The tent grow will be all Photo-period unless there is a time constraint on the grow and the shorter cycle time of autoflower plants is needed... 

See you on down the road,

    What do you use to make your tincture. We use a Magic Butter machine.

 I was at my work bench when I noticed a Gila Monster slowly walk into the shop and settle down behind the bandsaw: The bad news is there is...
