im thinking you could make a nice row of say 8' x 50' do like 5-10 of these 200gals right next to each other and create a camo canopy 5-10' above the plants then they could be right in the dead center of a bog and nobody would see them from above

a lot of pilots learned to fly in the military so they know what that stuff looks like. 8 x 50 would stick out like a 2 foot dick on a duck. 5 10x8 might be easier to hide.

im thinking if i put it out around the 1st of september that would be perfect. i would cut out 10'x8' patches and do 10 plants per area i think this will work... by that time the plants will be so fucking big that the netting wont cause much a loss of yield

i would imagine the black pot sticks out like a soar thumb

Indeed! But I've seen worse: blue water barrels, multicolored fertilizer and soil bags laying around, people wearing bright colored clothing.

Take it from this old duck hunter -- camouflage skills are vital for security.

Camoflage can be easy. That Black bucket can easily lose its outline with by painting a large diagonal swath across thepot.

I do think that the camo netting looks way too uniform and would actually attract the eye to whatever it was intended to shield. The net would be better if it had some larger holes and included some areas of different colors AND shapes.

Rippers and hikers are always a threat -- make your plants invisible from the terrestrial viewers, too.

I think it would work. fuck the military uses it to hide missile launching trucks and all sorts of shit so it has to work well. I'd be more worried about hunters or hikers on the ground finding it, but if you have a good remote patch of woods you might be all set.

Iron Lion,


The netting you showed looks fine (on edit- because of the good match to the surroundings, the key to camouflage). I don't know, maybe the first net shown needed to be stretched out, I'm sure there are lots of different nets available. The first one, in my opinion, would stick out.
 
i think the loss of yield/increase security ratio is way off......ive read all your posts and grown in the midwest.....just my opinion...:tiphat:

I think that shit would stick out like a sore thumb, especially with the leaving changing color, be damn hard to match the surrounding colors.

Block too much light.
:blowbubbles:

Need to find plastic that reflects spectrums other than green.
 
Sir Aeroguerilla: You have balls of titanium! Ever thought about gettin' your license to FLY HIGH. You could sure learn a lot about camo if you had one of those. GL in advance.

if you wait until sep 1st and match the colors up i think it would help cloak a 10x10' 5lb monster them neon green leaves when waving in the air are so easy to see + it would help hide the plant signature that the helicopters search for when detecting illict crops using there infrared scopes.

I hate that time when the surrounding vegetation changes color and my plants are still lush and vibrant. Maybe using a net that closely matches the surroundings would work.

It also might help to drape the net so its not square or rectangle. The eye quickly catches something so out of place..

You could drape that camo over a carport frame. You could get several plants inside a 10x20 carport frame. The $199 ones from Costco come already painted dark brown.
