BUMP!
So, the dispensary emptied out my flower in 1 week. They have patients on a waiting list for my flower. It's been met with an overwhelming positive feeling. So happy to be helping so many patients and proud of every delivery I made, as far as quality goes. Now the dispensary, will have to deal with patients that want my flower but have a little wait. Excited for some new strains I have coming. keeping my Pineapple Kush, Tangie, Critical Kush, and adding Zod, Black Kush, and Grape Kush.

The Tangie that I've experienced was From a promotional offer on my last purchase. Had a single seed of it, and was a keeper plant. Lost the strain in my move, so just ordered another 6pack as well as other stuff. Flower time is right around 55 early to 70 days with some flush time depending on nute levels ya run.

Ak,

Is it possible to run this whole setup on a single 20 amp circuit or do lights, fans,etc.. have to run on a separate circuit from the pumps?
You could run 1 1000w and everything else on one 20 amp as long as you dont have ac, and dehumidifier. When you add more lights, dehum and ac you'll need to break it up

Also, having a hard time jumping on my final heating/cooling decision. Was set to pickup a 4 zone mini split, but was then warned that the outdoor unit sometime freezes up during cold weather. Not something I want to happen during a cold Michigan winter, so now I'm looking at getting a smaller forced air furnace to do my heating & cooling. The hard decisions are holding me up with this build out.

You know what I like about my thread? There have been no haters or trolls. I am sure that they will come around someday, but I sure am stoked on all the positivity around here. Plants like positivity too, at least thats what my hippie friend said. lol. Lets keep it up! Thanks to everyone for all their support!

Hmmm. In Alaska we know a thing ot two about cold weather, well at least before global warming we did. JK lol. I have heard about people building a box or room around their outside unit of their mini splits with adjustable vents to keep them from freezin up.

Cool man. Only 2k watts? If so you are not gonna need hardly any, if any AC in the winter and you would be able to get by with a portable ac unit no problem in the summer. I am in the process of ditching my AC all together and going with cool boxes daisy chained together and rigged up to a thermostat. I have one set up and its putting off a ton of cool air just being connected to cold tap water. My plan is to set a res full of glycol in a freezer and pump that shit through the ice boxes. Im thinking it'll be good enough to cool 6k watts. http://www.amazon.com/Hydro-Innovations-904490-Ice-6-Inch/dp/B002JLAC3I
