I own a hydro/growshop how can I be of assistance?

I wish my weed wasn't so good, don't want to be to chatty but I'm curious.
What did you think of the wrestler story. Good, bad, in between?
Curious because not everyone would enjoy it and I obviously did.

Honestly I don’t think I fully understood the story. And it was in the middle of a dis ussion about something else.

No worries, I wasn't sure how it would taken.
I'm not good with online chat. I need to learn to stay on point. I go off in different directions when I chat making it confusing. Sometimes to confuse someone in an argument on purpose and sometimes because I'm just stoned lol.
I'm gonna step back from chatting for a while and hit the reset button.
I have a laid back B type personality except when it comes to games and I am treating this forum like a game.
Definitely need to take a step back.
Happy Growing!

So basically what you both are saying is yes they work but not cost effective. With the Exhale you need more bags and you have no control of out put of co2 . @Dynamo626 you said the Enhance works and puts out more co2 than the Exhale but only last a week.

So if they both produce co2 (which the plants love) and I run autos and run lighting 24/0 wouldn't my plants benefit from the added co2? I see where the Enhance would be costly to use on the other hand the Exhale bag is a hang and work deal and does supply co2 just need 4 in 4 x 4 area.

Cannabis doesn't use CO2 when there's no light.

Like nearly all plants, marijuana stops using CO2 during the night (dark period). CO2 is primarily used in the day by the plant as part of photosynthesis (turning light into energy), so if there's no light, there's little need for CO2.

Therefore, flooding your grow area with CO2 during your dark period can be a waste of time and money. CO2 mainly provides benefits when the lights are on.

I'm just trying to understand all this. IMO it does seem plants would need more co2 when supplying more light especially autos where you have the option of running a 24/0 lighting. Just a newbie trying to craft his skills with Autos and looking at all the pros and cons of adding co2 to my grows. Thx

Plant do not need increased Co2! They have grown in nature with out enhanced C02 for millions of years!

To properly run Co2 you need to be able to control the amount supplied, the temps and RH of the grow area they are in, and supply enough light intensity for it to work most effectively.

Buying little short term bags that create limited amounts of Co2 and drop in effectiveness after peaking out put early........Is simply wasting money if you don't control the other factors that limit the Co2 use...

I've gassed. Did so for several years. Found that it's effective but the cost to return was for me. Not worth the bother anymore.... Now, gassing in a 4x4 area isn't so bad......But still only worth doing in bloom...

i always get scared when i use that in my veggie garden. can't imagine that smell won't bring in bears from miles around

It brings skunks and raccoons, not sure about bears, I'm a bit south of bear country here .

LOL. I went a bit mental in an LED thread recently. I made a promise not to fight with anyone or be a jerk till at least the New Year.
Fresh start. New Avatar. New signature.
It has been a few hours so far and I am doing great.

Keep up the good work.... it's a challenge lol.

Sure is!

When I signed up I got myself into a fight with an entire forum of people from the RM3 website.

And it followed me back here. Lol.

I say fuck em if they got no spine!

I did learn how humans with investments in their time and money regardless of results will fight tooth and nail to defend their decisions.

Thank You Guys!
One day at a time. I was almost afraid to post a one sentence question in the led vs hps thread a moment ago to MMD. I even asked my wife if it was OK. She said it looked good.

My definition if you previously read mine is someone who is succeeding as the grower in a large cultivation facility. I'm curious what his definition is, if it is similar.
In my version I would count these as irrelevant:

• Years of experience?
• Master of many strains?
• Master of all types of plants?
• Master of hydro?
• Master of organic soil?

So a master grower only grows one type of plant in a production facility?

I'm thinkin' that's more of a "niche grower"...

It’s a made up title in the new weed industry. Now labor can be hired and someone is the boss.

In the black market everyone who had a room was a master grower. Usually the only one ever there or even knew about the room.

No I don't mean it like that.
I'll explain it from the perspective of a grower I know in a large facility.
He has taught me so much before I joined RIU. Now I can get all the answers from you guys.
He is an expert hps hydroponic grower of all types of strains but because it is a ROI mindset they grow strains that finish in 8 weeks. A gold mine for them would be to find a strain that finishes in 7 weeks. Many strains were tried out here by the early cultivators and in some facilities as many as 50% of the strains being grown were abandoned and new strains were added. There is an article somewhere I have no idea where to find it right now about strains being removed and others added during the early stages. Some facilities failed for various reasons at the beginning.

Then again if specializing in growing weed with hps only and being an expert at hydroponics and not soil is a niche grower then yes I suppose he would be.

 

[oh really???]

I got my free sample today.
Packaging is super important for dry nutes that contain calcium. Megacrop comes in a mylar bag, which is perfect.

What is a "master grower"? I've heard that term several times & have no idea what it means.

• Years of experience?
• Master of many strains?
• Master of all types of plants?
• Master of hydro?
• Master of organic soil?

etc...

Master grower just means in my opinion a seasoned grower. Someone who has failed and learned many times. When your knowledge grows into wisdom. When you are able to identify and learn as well as teach others from your experiences, like Mr. Miagi from Karate Kid.

Ummm I could be wrong but kinda thought you brought the fight with you when u came here lol. Speaking of spine, just once I would love to be standing in front of some of the few here (not referring to you med jsyk lol) that go off. Pretty sure things would be said a tad differently due to self preservation lol. The anonymity of the web makes everyone a warrior .

I made the mistake of openly outing the proprietor of their website. Doesn’t matter if what I said was true they were all protecting their private little world and their beliefs in myth and fantasy.

I fought for the truth. They don’t want anyone to know the truth. At least online. In person the members I have met say very different things.

I looked up a bunch of those members here and they were continuously argued with for their comments just like RM3 has been for many years and on other Grow sites.

They expect you to agree with his lies. They always stroke him like he is a hero. He continually asks for donations for his “cause”.

Fuck. They wear Riddler T-shirts. They call their gathering Rid-fest.

The whole thing is for his own ego. I like calling out frauds. It has become a hobby.

If his weed was as good as he said. Or 2 other riddlers I sampled from I would concede. But honestly. It sucked. Many testers have said so.

He and they will fight hard to keep the truth kept from noobs he wants to recruit. Yes he calls it recruiting.

I have experience that difference. I shared some poker stories earlier. There were many fights in the poker room even at the table. Being me I enjoyed watching the fights but would Always get closest to a feeble old person to protect them from on coming bodies. I'll tell you what. There were some bad ass people in the poker room. Any type of tourist could sit down and some of them we're pretty mean . But no one ever ever spoke to someone else across the poker table the way people did online in the online poker games. I wonder why? Signing off for the day. Have a good one guys.

Almost like a cult huh lol. I have used a few of rids suggestions but some not so much and honestly in the 5-6 years I've watched his threads I gotta say he has toned it down a bit lol. I take what I need from everyone here and offer the limited experience I have and I think that's what it's supposed to be about. Not to try to prove anyone wrong which seems a goal .....anywhooo thread off track ....... Merry Christmas everyone... ya I said Christmas lol.

Like a gardener?

Why does the weed industry insist on making up its own terms for things? Is it lack of intelligence, education, professionalism, or ?

Lesson1, never take advice from a woman that doesn't do anal. Is she fit to give you advice? That's a very indirect way to ask if your wife does anal. Hello, I'm mr sunshine, Internet sensation. Nice to meet you...

If being seasoned is the determining criteria, I am a Master Gardener. lol. I have been humping buckets of cow and chicken shit through the woods for over 30 years, since back in the day when we used manure composts for economic rather than ecological reasons.
