Now theres a good idea.. I like the calendar idea that the guy has but nobody uses paper calendars any more, It might be a better idea to have an INTERACTIVE WEB CALENDAR with content spaced out over the days of the calendar and special video cuts on special days like christmas halloween and stuff. Maybe its just the weed thinking , but thats actually a damn good idea. Have girls doing grow tips every monday on the calendar.
And like you say have them in GOOD photo shots with clean healthy plants, nobody needs to see your dirty carpet or grow shields in the background.
That always turns me off of ADULT content as well, when they show some hot chick but she is on a carpet that is stained ( im sure you have seen content like this before ) or even worse when you see kids toys on the floor or broken computers in the background, bottles of beer with cig butts in them lol. Basically anything in the background that distracts me from the chick. Every once in a while i notice either jesus pictures or big crosses in the background , that always turns me off to, pictures of kids on the table .. stuff like that.
