I'm not sure if this is the right forum, but it seemed best suited at the time. I'll apologize now if it needs moved.
I hope to become a 'cultivator of exotics'. Growing and gardening is my passion and I hope to follow this in the near future. I've never grown this before and I really want to try it out. But I have two problems. I haven't been anywhere near herb in over ten years! I don't have any friends with connections, and I have no idea where to go or who to talk to so that I can get started. My biggest problem is that I was just accepted into a professional program. Any activity I do will have to be completely stealth, especially the first step of finding seeds. I have looked into many seed banks and assessed their shipping stealth, prices, available strains, etc. but after much consideration I believe it will be more beneficial to not go through a process where they must be shipped to me.
There are two reasons why I prefer this. The most obvious is the lack of a paper trail which would indefinately end any possibility of me continuing in my studies and ultimately ending my career. The second reason is more economical. I will be a first time grower. My first harvest will not be my best, but will be more of a mach-trial to test my abilities. After a few harvests I plan to start with White Widow and Great White Shark.
Do you have any tips to help me get started? I need a way to find seed somehow!
