To be honest, I imagine there is enough interest to create an educational mini-series based on the different stages....Live streaming plant growth, though, equates to a LOT of downtime. If you think about it...growing plants is long durations of nothing, interrupted by short stints of care/activity. Making live streaming 80% inactivity...which is a waste of resources...since people would only check in during times when something was being done.
Seems like the best route (IMHO) would be to record the whole endeavor but to then go back and time-lapse all the slow stuff, so it's more compelling.
My 2 cents.
Sidenote: Unless I'm mistaken, Colorado (while legal for recreational grows) only explicitly allows for plants grown from clones....still a lot of gray area and questions about how to enforce but auto beans from Spain, for instance, would still be considered illegal. Even photo beans from a Colorado breeder may not be okay if being enforced by a hard-ass hater. So there are still quite a few things to be ironed out before anyone other than a registered professional grower, who is required to officially track their plants, could engage in such an undertaking openly and safely. This may be old news though...things are changing and being more accurately defined everyday. I don't think the Colorado laws even know how to address an auto flower plant yet. The law (as I understand it) allows for 6 plants per adult, but then further stipulates that only 3 may be in bloom at one time, and that the other 3 must be in veg....That doesn't really take into account that autos show sex in 15 days or so. By those metrics, one would need to be two weeks away from harvesting on 3 plants before they could germinate 3 more. It is true though, that a household of 2 adults would technically be allowed 12 plants, 6 of which could be flowering at any given time...
