I was wondering what any other outdoor growers use for covers, when i cleared out my area in some brush, some of the tall skinny plantlife died, i'm looking for some kind of system that really works to camo my little area. thanx.

it depends on how much you grow in one spot..if its a large grow then i have no clue but if its only a few plants maybe 5 or so...i would say just spread them out at random....dont get busted like the guys in the National Park..lol DAMN 200 million dollats worth....i think it was about 50,000 plants...can you imagine...oh my god

wow, i outta grow an outdoors next year =)

err.. back on topic .. your best camo is other plants of similar size/shape/color .. anything artificial would be to much evidence. keep it as close to natural as you can so the cops won't get all over you .. spread it out .. don't put all your plants together.

about the plants that look the same as MJ...just use the plants and brush that are already in the area...someone mentioned a plant that looks almost identical to MJ but then again are the cops really gonna care if they look like asses for checking itout..NO i didnt think so just spread them out and dont leave some huge ass trail through the woods like you were logging in there or nothing...thick brush is best...and take longer steps seems to help keep from killing the plants as bad

I've always planted in an area rich with ferns for cover. The color is a close match and even if the pot grows taller than the ferns it'll be extremely difficult to discern the difference from a helicopter.

Toke it easy, Pan.

There's a plant that's perfect for companion growing with marajuana. It's called cleome, and it's an annual that's really easy to grow from seed.
I wish I could paste a photo I have of my garden so you could see how well they camoflauge! They even smell sort of like pot, and grow up to 5 or 6 feet tall if the conditions are right...mine are about 5 feet this year. They branch out like pot, the leaves are shaped like pot, each branch looks like a long bud cone with a giant flower at the end of it. They're beautiful and perfect to hide a pot plant! The way the branches go, they intertwine with your pot plants and it looks like one plant!
Believe me, this is very effective...I use them every year, and people walk right by my plants in my garden and don't even notice they're there.

I think the best thing to do is get artifical flowers and slide them in with you bud, so it looks like you bud is just some other follage. People will look right past it, make sure you are consistant about the flowers and plants that you add in. The good thing is that it will not effect you plant in anyway. I've even used red and green christmas tree ornaments. I got them muddy and hung them on the branches to look like some kind of fruit or tomato.
good luck

where are you planting, cause unless your planting in a garden or in a public place, and naturally growing plants will do. Ganja plants are actually really hard to spot far off (unless u've got fat colas coming out left right and centre).
Go easy though, too much camo can be bad. It looks too obvious if u look as if yr hinding something.

sunonleaves, is this a common garden plant? I'd like to know if I could just pick up some seeds at the local green shop or something. Also, is this plant indigenous to the US? This sounds like the perfect compliment to a "normal" rock garden!!!

Stay Green!
