We have 2... fudge my.back( i cant swear hard, potroast shuts me.down everytime)

We used to just bring in friends, family.. and pay them daily cash. But, those people are slow. It was well worth the ~$485 bucks to have this taken down and hung. I really didn't do anything but go around sweeping and cleaning up. They will come back in 11-13 days to hand trim all of this and more for $100 a lb. Times are tough around here. 2 years ago, the going rate was about $400 a lb hand trimmed.

@Samwell Seed Well ... and I hear ya!... Im getting old, and some of this work kills my back. It's just easier to hire it out. I'll even hire out to transplant 80-90 clones into 7 gallon pots and move them into the room. Getting old sucks.

Im hoping after a year or so of this they will let me higher a staff to do deadline labour...

Tool me and my only employee 9 hrs to get the first harvest done... 77k wet grams ...

This biz has become so cut throat in the past couple of years, that everyone is working with thin margins.

Smells dank already. Good job Oklahoma trim team!.. this was a fast 7 hour takedown!, and we got 1 more tray to go.

Ive been waiting to see this. Sorry about my silly vinegar idea lol.

Not my proudest run... those damn NukeHeads genetics suck!... but!.. I found 1 mother. of Lemon can that I like. Next run should be epic. Gonna run fewer plants, pay more attention to training, get back to the basics, and maybe explore Coco in my Mother tent once the new inventory is in the main room.
Cant see all of it, but thats 12 wires hanging. ... and we have about 2/3rds of a tray to chop tomorrow morning. Gonna have to dry them in the grow room because we ran out of room there... which i've never done before, so.. maybe it'll be ok.

Oh yeah, Nukeheads IMO are the worst, I've seen it personally, I've not grown any personally, but a workers brother (Plow) put all his eggs in their basket 2 years ago for his outdoor run, and got burned. Nothing was as stated, not even close to the same genetics, I mean it's one thing to have a couple different phenos, but not like Plow had, most never reached the 2ft mark, and then he had some that grew 8-10ft but were lanky, node spacing was huge, and buds didn't even hit "golf ball" size and yielded practically nothing to talk about with an 8-10ft'er.
I really hope that the mother Lemon Cane you kept tests well, hopefully that will help you recoup some of your money spent on the nasty run of their genetics.
Hell, I think I've got some "Funeral Cake" seeds left that I'd send you so you could give them a try, they hit the mark for me last year, real nice frosty tasty smoke, the hash I made from her is real nice, a peach/mango taste mixed with a peaches and cream taste from the pheno I had.

You must have watched a Nukeheads video with his "throw ice on as a top dressing, and don't forget to add vinegar to your water" speel, LMAO

No its apple cider vinegar in a dish to kill gnats...he had a gnat issue for a bit.

Oh ok, I get it now, but I saw a video from Nukeheads where he says adding vinegar will make your trichomes swell, that's what I thought you were referring to, my bad, LOL

Yes for real, ice for a top dressing, then add vinegar to your water and water your pants, the ice and vinegar will make your buds "swell" LOL

That MicrobeLift and sticky traps seemed to be the trick.. gotta break that cycle.

Exactly what I got from them… some shortys, some tall and lanky, it was a mess.

Well, we're sitting in the dark. Been 5 hours now. Wildfires have ravished the countryside today, taking out many power poles/lines down. It hasn't rained in months, and everything is dry as a bone. Winds gusting up to 40mph. Everything should be ok, as long as they get it up and running pretty quick.

Wish you the best in these trying times

Thankfully, we're in the dry, and the building is very well insulated. It was 62 in there about 6 hours ago when I checked. Not gonna go back there and open any doors till the power comes back online. Otherwise, I have a Mother and clones in the tent.

 

[DoubleAtotheRON]

.........ok, I couldn't help myself LOL!... still 62 degrees in the dry room, but the RH is up to 68 from 60... so not too bad. Mother Tent/clones are in a separate sealed room.. 77/77RH.

 

[DoubleAtotheRON]

The scenario for the day.... high winds, dry conditions. We had multiple wildfires today taking out power to many around me, including myself. One Firefighter died today battling these fast moving wildfires. We just got power back about 30 min ago, and the dry room is re-stablized. Prayers out to those who lost homes, livestock, and a life.
