They will grow that stuff anywhere

I saw this on craigs list and thought some people here might get a kick out of it. I never thought of turning my motorhome into a marijuana growing facility, haha. but when I saw it I had to laugh---> Pace Arrow Grow Room Hydroponic 420

I wonder if he will get the $4000 he is asking

Good grief. I guess that's one way to cover the high price of gasoline.

I suppose this is a way to stay one step ahead of the Law.

i suspect the seller will have no trouble moving his rig.... However he may (Soon) have other problems as a side benefit.. Getting around however, won't be one of 'em, nor will getting his next meal, he will know exactly where it's coming from.

You might be right. It's actually a waste of a motorhome. Ironicly it represents a loss of potential good times and memories (in more ways than one) that motorhome could have brought.

My cousin and her husband have a farm in east TX. Several miles down the road the cops found a meth lab running in a motor home parked back in the woods a little ways.

He also found a duffel bag in his field and called the cops. They said it was a portable "lab" that is uses a few times (or maybe once?) and dumped.

This is in a farming area where everyone knows everyone and the bums still get away with it - for a while at least.

I'm sure that rig would only be used to grow the legal medicenal stuff

Hey, once the "Upgrades" are removed and the original floor plan restored, or perhaps even an improved floor plan.. That rig, (sold at police auction) might well be a good value. You could buy it for a few thousand, Then customize the floor plan to meet your needs. Might even retain a small "Grow" room. Tomatoes, Beans, Carrots etc do quite well in an indoor grow room.

They actually sell trailers like this (he says it in the article - A 'Grow and Tow'). They are legal in all states, and can be used legally in those where you are allowed to grow your own, like California...

I actually see value in this for someone that likes to stay in cold places, and is handy, and likes a simple interior rather than a glitter box type RV.

If I were in th market for a rig I would consider this, the work is done as far as insulation goes. I would open a few areas where a couple or windows were covered to allow light in. And maybe a couple or air ducts?

I am familiar with grow rooms and Hydroponics, but I raised Basil, and sold to restaurants (in winter conditions) for one dollar an ounce. Made good money!
