CONGRATS, Minnesota! Enjoy that home grown!
WOOO!
First harvest next week woooooooot
@lonerider5315 YEAH BUDDY! Have fun!🌲
I'm 3 weeks in on my third harvest. Very thoroughly enjoyed. Thank you.
@@everennui1Such a great feeling to smoke what you grew yourself and find flavors/cannabinoid profiles that fit you and your lifestyle. It's just the best. Also, congrats!
I grow it and love it. I’m in my 60’s and female. It helps with arthritis.
I'm 72 and have used it for over 50 years.

No it doesn’t. It’s all in your head.
I smoke weed to get high.
@@TT-qo9dvthe medical is all thc-A. Garbage…. They are fooling you and millions of others with sugar and fancy names!
Growing and smoking cannabis, 50 years now. Finally legalized. Home growers, put the dispensaries out of business. Had medical license 8 years now, and it is very expensive for seniors and the disabled. Thank God Minnesota finally did something smart.
You should see what our dispensaries charge for CBD/Hemp! It's more than what other states charge for 30%/THC weed.
MN's "system" ($$$) is going to create a blackhole for growers who won't make any money bc ppl aren't gonna pay $200-300/oz.
I can get CBD for $30/oz or THC for
@@jilbertb not entirely, just give private growers more room, when they take on a larger risk, to grow more than legal. but who gives a phuck, those people aren't gonna change what they've been getting away with for decades.
but sure, drive a state away, i'll take jimbobs dro down the road.
Is anyone in the area considering a State or Local Cannabis Compassion Club that could reach out to and help teach seniors, disabled and vulnerable adults about the herb and the benefits of using it through vaporizing, edibles, etc.?
Keep the Vape Faith, @Hoss766
@@jilbertbI’m from the UK and people here think legalisation is the be all end all. I see legalisation and decriminalisation of cannabis in places in the US comes with its own set of problems
Rip off artist's selling Marijuana so expensive home grown up
Home grown is the way to go.
564 dollars 4 an oz at thr dispensary. Rip off artist's selling Marijuana so expensive streets cheaper thank goodness
If Minnesota had more dispensarys it would be going a lot better but all the red tape and lack of state cooperation is slowing the industry down
I love hearing stories like this. I live in California. I've always liked cannabis. Since a young age. I didn't start growing my own until 2018. I now work full-time as a cultivator technician at a cannabis indoor grow facility located in northern california. Honestly, growing at home has always been the best for me. I usually grow 3 plants and always have plenty of flowers to share.
Lucky you
Home grown farmers market is the way 🖕the industry
Grow for personal use, not resale.
No fentanyl.
No heroine.
No gangsters.
No taxman cometh for personal use.
No crap-smelling.
or grow for resale

@@mikeengland80 it's only a matter of 3 years and it'll be legal nationwide.
Home grown's all right with me...
home grown is the way it should be...
Thanks Neil Young!
Growing your own is the best way to go .
Not if you can buy it way cheaper then the growing cost. Do people grow their own food? no
It’s cannabis not marijuana 🤦♂️
Excellent journalism
We So Glad We get this opportunity to Shine
That shelf is awesome. Grow your own. Its cheaper and can be very sustainable
You can tell that guy was growing before it was legalized lol, hidden doors and shit.
It did say in the video he had been growing the past 5 years lol, but who hasn't been?
i mean they actually talked about this in the video
love this
About time 🎉
thats beautiful man
awesome
I suppose Bob’s secret room isn’t so secret anymore. But he just gave me an idea for my next home construction project…
Also, his wife, Erin made a great point about home growers. You can only imagine how much great cannabis is being grown that the world will never even hear about!
shit made me cry. grow homie grow
Legalize it in all 50 states the Carolinas need it like 20 years ago
Farm Bill of 2018 legalized HEMP and definied marijuana as having greater than 0.3% Delta 9 THC.
The plant, until smoked and provided you've handled it properly, doesn't contain ANY DELTA 9 THC!! D9 is illegal, THCa is not.
Legalize nature.
There already IS a law for that called: The Law of Nature
My buds are huuuge and something smells really skunky.
Uno the deal
Nice looking buds Bob 👌
an ounce a year???? from two plants???
Open up the shop!
Legal weed isn't as good as homegrown.
@@MrCBeery it can be pretty good, depending on the operation. Remember, legal dispensaries also need to compete ;)
@@nannerpuss9430 Clones still downgrade the weed no matter what you or I think. That's just a fact. You can't downgrade a product then say it's just as good as the original.
Dispensary weed smells good and looks good but does not get me high.
Ounce over a year!? OK. More like an ounce every 2_4 days.
Maybe you should switch to concentrates. Not those BS vape pens either.
Peak or Peak Pro, live rosin all day
I use promix hp with gai green dry amendments for my soil with mykos shit coming out fire 🔥
So much for the "secret" room, why would you broadcast your secret room ?
Cause it’s no longer illegal, gotta remember he was doing it 5 years prior. Probably used that room to hide it and mask the smell.
It's not marijuana it's cannabis. Marijuana was the derogatory slang used during prohibition(because of our friends down South) for more than a century. Time to set things right.
Emerging? I’m guessing I smoked my first homegrown weed in 1974. I stopped smoking decades ago but I have known home growers and seed cultivator/traders all my life.
You know they charge $50 for 3 seeds now? It's ridiculous. It's not like the "olden days" when it was decrim and basically legal, like in the 70's.
Looks like we've restarted the clock on MN cannabis history. I wonder if we'll have increased enforcement now that it's legal, i.e., there are so many ways to break the new laws. Will those criminal records ever get erased?
@@jimsliverootsculturemusicprobably not I don’t even think criminal records from prior have even been touched yet, they say they’re going to..
An ounce a year! Oh boy. Lol
I could go through an ounce in like 2 weeks probably less.😂
1-2 plants... I can't imagine growing 2 plants to maturity for an ounce... Maybe with a PC stealth micro grow... You'd have to try to get only one ounce.
i miss the quality of weed that cane from Minnesota..... can we bring back the growers that brought us 2009-2015 crops?? it was ACTUALLY decent buds, far surpassing the quality that california and oregon had.
I can’t wait to have my first harvest in a couple weeks 🙌🏽
This is nice, but I don't see a reason why it's legally mandated that it must be hid. That makes no sense to me if its legal to grow and consume it.
Because of blue pill politics and schools. They've breeded a lawless generation that condones liars and theives aka;
"God HATERS"!
Bottom line: the government is concerned about law enforcement budget and expects their lowlife generation to steal✌️
Probably has to do with law enforcement. If they stop you or come to your home, if they see evidence of "illegal" activity they can investigate further. So if you got your plant growing in the dining room that you can see from the front lawn, cops can pursue a warrant.
Also about keeping children safe...
Community...
Blah...
Blah...
Blah...
If they can't see or smell it it doesn't exist.
Minnesota! 75% psychologically normal which is better than most states today!
Little house on the dope field yo!
Called a few dispensaries and I was told that selling doesn’t begin until 2025. Grow your own if you’re waiting for that like gta 6.
Lmao tf bro said an ounce could last up to a year? Even if u did one oney a week that wouldn’t last😂🤦♂️
Some of us have hobbies outside of eating Doritos and taking naps. It’s pretty pathetic if you can’t go a single day without getting high… It’s a plant. It’s not life. It’s just a plant.
I smoke an ounce a DAY of fire 🔥 not like this trash he grew
@@Jericho-tc9yn How sad. Seek help for your hatred.

Stereotypes are funny in movies, but rarely translate to reality. You are not living in reality. Not even going to assume or judge you on how you carry yourself, but how you present your opinions is unhealthy.
@@orbscorbs So not being a stoner is "hatred"? weird little world you live in....
Any updates on recreational?
What do you mean
It's legal recreationally. There just aren't any dispensaries open for 21+ adults. A few popped up on some reservations but I think gov't slammed down on them.
Don't expect to legally buy until 2025/2026 unfortunately.
@@nickmeyer238It’s so dumb when states do that.
“weed is legal but don’t buy street weed for 2 years”😂
Cash crop funds schools and roads
The more you grow the more you know 💯🌱💚👊🏻💨💨💨
We have to go homegrown. Corporate cannabis has a total of 16% sales tax and the permits for retail sale are obscene.
Good! Now they don't hafta drive over to michigan to get it lol always in my way
I could use some home grown 💚
Hash rosin rules!
This guys lights aren't close enough and his plants are stretching. If you see this, stop the stretch so the branches don't break.
You can't know that from a tiny glimpse. This is some amateur "I read some forums" advice.
You don't know any variables to make your claim.
@@tomatobasil7695 I grow so I know that his lights his plants are not receiving enough light. They have thin branches and are stretching which is clear enough evidence for anybody who knows how to grow. Apparently you don't know much about it.
Bob I’ll be visiting soon 😂😂😂😂
Truly a gift that your state let's you grow if you abide by law
Go to the dispo in jordan mn its recreational
Strain out. And Free samples 😊 Till 😊
at least the new is allowed to show plants. while others get their channels shut down ???? wonder why lol
You can legally sell your cannabis, does not apply to anything but a legal private grow. Minnesota Consitution Article 13, Section 7. NO LICENSE REQUIRED TO PEDDLE. Any person may sell or peddle the products of the farm or garden occupied and cultivated by him without obtaining a license therefor.
Man, I have been using it for 46 years, my take on... Ah... forgot what I was going to say... crap.
MN is missing the revenue boat
Legally is the operative word . Most tobacco shops are already selling it to the public but as far as I know only one tobacco shop has been busted and he was on the White Earth Reservation , and was busted by Police that are not from the reservation . What statement does that make ?
I don't have a secret room. I would use jars to seal my seasonings.
Gotta closet? You can grow one or two plants at a time, which should last until your next harvest if you're doing it right.
I’m pretty sure all of us just want the rec market to get started sooner than later.
Yes, I get frustrated when I hear news about them cracking down on shops selling it. Saying they could fine them a million plus dollars for it. Then they outlawed thca and the delta 8 derived thcp, and all that other fun stuff and theyve still not licensed and approved a rec shop.
And I'm still confused about the THCA being outlawed because I thought cannabis had THCA in it. I'm thinking of trying some old seeds i have kept around, try growing in a windowsill just to see how it goes.
@@MarianaTrench6699yeah, that doesn't make sense. #45 signed Farm Bill 2018 into law. THCa is legal on a federal level. Only converts to the "illegal" Delta 9 when decarbed or smoked.
@@SirDydimus86 since October of 2023, two months after cannabis was legalized they made thca buds and pure thca vapes illegal. That's what a vape shop guy told me anyway.
There's nothing better and safer than home-grown!
What is “homegrown”
Everyone is growing but know one is sharing! Can't find a sack to save my life lol
Damn Bub. Sorry.
Maybe you should start growing too? 🤷HEMP is legal and all flower until smoked is technically HEMP.
🍃🔥💨🔥❣️
Wanting to set up a tent here soon, would be dope AF.
The stores are very expensive. Streets cheaper anyways. Home grown hood prices 2
I'm trying to quit smoking flower due to health anyone know where to buy some thc tablets or pills maybe tinctures with full effects?
Michigan :)
Also have you considered a volcano?
Or a LEVO! 2nd generation decarbs flower for you too! You can always make tincture with the flower you buy or make RSO...
I saw someone juice it for its benefits...naturally won't get you high...
The feds can still ruin your parade at any moment.
An ounce in a year yea right lol
You can pick up an ounce of great stuff in Michigan, All you see at the dispensaries are Wi and Mn. License plates .
And this is how the law should be for every state in the united states......... Is what makes us united
Hope corporations don't over
The whole drug situation is lost. Legalizing or not legalizing drug use has little impact on its' usage. People will consume them anyway.On the other hand legalizing marijuana, the least dangerous of drugs, has resulted in an increase in usage. What a mess.
I’m all for open carry.Not talking about firearms.
I just dont get why people fool with flower when theres cheap concentrates 10 a g mailed to your house legally lmfao 😂 🤣 💀
Nice
1 ounce doesn't no more than a week. If you kept an ounce for a year, you should probably buy a gram at a time. 🤔
00:59 is someone going to tell Bob that his plants are super stressed out from too much nutrients and light intensity!? You can see how small & tight the structure is yet super frosty. That’s a clear sign is stress
You definitely don’t grow 😂😂
Um....I've had something like 98% germination. Also 98% female. Where are they buying their seeds?
Finally legal in Ohio as of December 2023... No place to buy, but I don't care.
Allow for texas to have diferrent rules like tax more but legalize it
Remember to make RSO with the trim
Home grown is best ....
Until I can order it to my house over the internet I could not care less.
Market? Grow your own. You don’t need a market.
Letting states decide their own marijuana laws shows how stupid each state is in their own special way
First harvest coming in lol
I'm so jealous!
In germany, we will be able to own three plants, while you're allowed to own 50g at home...
No private trading allowed, theoretically of course 😉
How's that supposed to work, to get only 50g of high quality bud from three plants? 😂
You guys are growing this all wrong. In the 80's I would grow 4 plants and my harvest could last me 2.5 years.
You don't cram them together and grow bushes. You grow them spaced out and upright.
Once they're 4'-5' tall, you begin the slow process of bending the tops over to the ground with a string tied to a 2 liter pop bottle full of water. (Towards the corners of the room.)
Why? Each branch then begins to think it is the top and grows accordingly.
Yield, people, yield.
its all about LST and spreading that canopy!
It already yields more than you need. Don't be blinded by greed. It's about its desirable effects, not yield or potency as commercial growers and sellers wants you to think.
Bend right from the start week really a few weeks in
LST when branches are supple and new, not mature and rigid.
Anyone who wants their cannabis reviewed LET US KNOW
Quasi legal at best!
An oz from 2 plants what the hell is he growing them in solo cups
An oz a year 😅
Glad they have something but patients should have access to surgically cultivated cannabis. Here in Cali we have all kinds of edible drinks,gummies,cookies etc so you don't always have to hurt your lungs, it's relatively cheap for flower and concentrate tapes ihope that comes to Minnesota one day too.
Medical has been legal for years here in MN.
@johnshottie4415 Oh that's great! The video was misleading
@@justtwobrotherspokemon it was a good start but only a couple companies grow everything which kinda sucks. Hoping small scale operations are able to benefit from the new legalization
Ounce over a year? 😂 how about a week?
Smoking on some 2090 Shit grown by Cookies 🔥🍪
Sounds like an expensive 8th and a trip back to the Dispensary. Just grow Your own stop lining the pockets of greedy corporations.

Excel energy is the winner of this marijuana business - more power consumption 😅 for urban farmer 😂!
I grow my 12 plants off one solar panel and two batteries
1500 watt electric heater use more electricity than an entire grow for 8 plants. My bill went down.
Just finished a 6-month-grow with my 4000 watt vipraspctor ran two units side by side. The whole cycle average was only $40 a month not too bad for that amount of power output. The new LEDs operate cheaper
