Vertical cage match, 32K watts, 32 plants

[legallyflying]

I dunno man. Some plantmax bulbs suck black cock. Like there MH.

For $40 more a bulb I would say go horti. Everyone gets horti for $65 a piece now. Either through the grow store with Thug life 30% discount or ebay.

We are going to do the first round of harvest on monday.

Built out the drying room today. Sheeted the whole interior with 3/4 plywood to prevent someone from sledge hammering their way in through the drywall and ran drying strings.

I ran 1900 feet of string!! Lol

True, you can get six packs of Horti lamps for sixty bux each ($360 total) on Amazon, saw it last night.

I've only ever used Plantmax HPS thousand watt lamps, never tried anything else of theirs. They worked well for me.

Haha trust me, bitches love black cock, just maybe not in the grow.

this is true. Introducing huge black cock into the grow can stunt the development of the girls. They won't get big and fat like midwest BBC sluts, but will end up kind of skinny, think Pasadena craigslist crack whore.

It's mildly funny, but we have some blackberry cheesecake in veg right now, and of course I changed the labels from bbc to big black cock.

It's shit.like that, and of course setting the alarm when your unsuspecting partner is pruning in the flower room that make the days a little more tolerable

 

[SupaM]

Lmao! Being the owner of a bbc, I couldn't resist chiming in....hahaha Garden is crackin proper!! ATB!

 

[SupaM]

OG Biowar FTMFW! Gotta go back and hack half my plants for clones, and space after just Two uses of the Root and Nute packs! Whoa, great sh!t, brotha! ATB!

 

[legallyflying]

Yeah. That shit is THE BOMB.

Finally got our cloud based temperature sensure up and running. Pretty damn slick!!

Monitors temps humidty and water levels. If a level is exceeded it txts, calls, and send emails to me my partner and a friend of mine.

Works like a charm. Here is a screen shot of the data. The upper chart is room temp and hunidity.. pretty neat to see the humidty spike and fall with lights on and off. The second chart is a remote temp probe placed directly next to the buds closest to the bulb.

 

[SupaM]

That's futuristically Dope! pun intended.... ATB!

 

[legallyflying]

No...that's a $600 investment to make sure our $130k investment doesn't go to shit because of soemthing stupid like perlite in a float valve, someone kicking a hose loose, or an AC breaker popping.

But yeah.. it's dope

2nd day of first chop.

How many people trimming?

We had about 6 people for about 10 hours the first day and we ground through a bunch of it.

One dude big leafing and 5 people on bonzai hero trimmers. We actually did a couple of one hour races to see who was fastest. People averaged about 5.5lbs wet per hour. My best 6.37 lbs .

But I don't talk or shoot the shit when I trim. I put on headphones and just go into psycho trimmer mode.

I figure dry weight is like what.. 1/8 of wet weight? So we are around $30 or so per dry pound which is pretty good

 

[redi jedi]

My hand aches just thinking about trimming...it was fun maybe twice, then that shit gets old real quick.

Ok, so I have a thread about this grow as it is a newly constructed warehouse grow but honestly, the thread is full of jack holes and guys that wear diapers.

Not that I am looking for everyone to pander to me or anything but I really don't feel like explaining why I'm not running LED in my fucking warehouse..or putting god damn solar panels on the roof. Might as well paint a sign....huge medical grow here.

Anyways, I figured the vertical forum would be less full of dip shits. There comes a time when you really don't have any questions about growing or setup; and you just want to show some people one of the many techniques out there.

Just installed buckets and cages. Should be ready to put plants in the room in about a week. (still waiting on permits) They will be flipped about a week after that.

So the low down:
32 plants
32 hortilux
vertical bare bulbs
DWC with a central reservoir
two 235 gallon reservoirs
AC and CO2.. fucking duh
heavy 16 nutes, weekly biowar tea.
chillers
a bunch of other crap that doesn't matter.
Oh yeah..cages are 28" square. Checkerboard pattern...distance to bulb = 14" at surface of cage.

Since I've noticed that a lot of people here are asking questions to others for advice and there are those who actually give them advice without any lip maybe you should re-evaluate why you are here.

I mean without stem id say about 75% loss of weight is more accurate.

i think your one of the diaper wearers hes refering to. Many of us are here just to show our shit to a wide community of people and let them see our techniques. Were not all looking for wide range approval or in reality approval at all. He clearly has a grasp on what the hell hes doing. I like the way the man comes across. Solid and knowledgable.

It gets easier when you are in the Rockies getting $200 a night and spending days skiing. Went to visit friends in Telluride, Colorado to help trim in 2010. It was great, came home with $1000 each for a week's work and had a blast!.
