Ask a Grow Question

[Unknown Member]

I lived in California before I moved to Oklahoma and where I live was in the mountains. So we didn’t have any porch lights on our neighbor’s house because we didn’t have any neighbors. So I’m wondering should I blocked a porch light from hitting my girls? Any thoughts on that?

Tell the neighbors you’re trying to grow some dank! They would have to be pretty bright to herm the plants. Can you describe how much light is hitting them? How close are they?

Dude that message was supposed to go to you not where it went. I couldn’t get it to send to you so I sent it someway. But yeah that was for you. Tell me what you think. Do I have to get a shade cloth?

you can always put an 80% shade cloth over them at night…

Yeah I think that’s what I’m going to do is get a shade cloth and throw over the top of my greenhouse at night. That way my neighbors. You know I don’t have to tell him what I’m doing. Ask him to turn the light out. You know. Trying to keep everything hush hush

Yeah that’s a yellow light. Kind of bright shining through a brand new porch light they put in comes right across the top of my fence and it shines on top of my greenhouse about two, 2 and 1/2 ft up from the you know from the top down and it casts a shadow on the other side of my yard on the other side of my fence. I don’t know if that’s too bright because you know I started flowering about 3 weeks ago and all the sudden I started stretching really fast and I thought it was going back in the vegetation

I started using black out plastic just to be safe about all light. We have a no lights Outside rule here, obviously also. But even I slip up with the light. So I just go pull the tarps every night. Keeps them a little warmer anyhow.

A good thing to remember Before, asking neighbors to turn off their lights, lights on is tied to safety for a lot of people. Honestly, if I was next-door and I felt that way about my safety maybe I’m single mom alone or something. I tell you to go fuck yourself. So if you’re curious why someone might think you’re a selfish jerk lol. Seriously I asked my neighbors. I lied to her and told her it was my fruit trees. That was the real problem with her light. But it didn’t matter because she would forget anyhow. But some people really tie light with safety. and thinking that your weed plants are more important than their safety might make them angry. Then they’re gonna think you’re a real cocksucker and you will not be invited to any barbecues. They may tell you to take your Californian ass right on back to the best coast. Ha ha West Coast best coast

For sure good move to black them out. I have seen plants here from the led lights on a portable AC before… Not the whole plant, but right by the led. Better safe than sorry.

I’m pretty anal about that also. Lol and I was going to do a little post about it. But I spray paint all the extension cords that go out there that light on the end. Then they’re all wrapped in black out plastic for water, protection, and light. It just seems safer to do it. And it’s not really that hard. It’s just being mindful.
