I can see the dense roots in the pots , just like a mattress of roots, those raised smartpots must give nice aeration to the root system , they seem to love it. Just keep on keeping on , in the field of dreams ! Those burgers look fanbtastic and indulgent!!

Or main farm is very remote & off grid. We have a solar powered well for water. I also have a home in town, and start all our plants in my basement clone room in the off season. I use these DIY hydro-cloners and start plants early in the season. Different color pucks make keeping track of strains easy..

Once I retired from my job in the real world in the city, I decided i needed a working hobby. So I partnered up with a long time friend and we purchased a piece of remote land in a pot friendly county in NorCal. Put in a solar well and trenched in a water system. We have 5000gl water storage tanks up on a hill that gravity feeds the farm. Built a couple of 30x60 light dep greenhouses and hired a crew. Farm was paid off in 2 seasons. So we started renting adjoining property's to grow on......welcome to my TED talk.

I've trimmed all my crops myself at the table for weeks. I'm a one man army trimmer pro. Those are some oak trees in Cali. The lumens off the sun must be perpetual 26° heaven over there! It wouldn't bare thinking about people's stiff back and finger cramp off that combine harvest.

I'm more amazed that you're doing it while sitting on a couch or grilling burgers and whole hogs.

I'm sure you do plenty of real work though. Or do you? I'm sure some of your crew thinks you just get in the way. :mrgreen:

GEICO TV Spot, 'Prisoner: It's What You Do'

In what looks like the medieval times, a group of armored knights led by an imposing leader enter a room lit only by torches. He's come to check on the progress of his men with their prisoner who is tied to a large table. The two men sternly reply that the prisoner will tell them everything very...

Actually we share the work. I'm working right now growing clone mothers, while they are in Hawaii. We work different shifts, we couldn't do it without each other. But they work on commission so once the plants are delivered to the farm I pretty much stay out of their way, and work on infrastructure like water and road maint.
