Co2 gen ought to help keep your shed warm.

Might not work too well in the summer,
so you better get to using it.

The pros I know,
recommend bottled Co2
to save on the heat.

Yeah, if you're having heat issues at all, I don't recommend a generator... But for winter time, it works.

I'm going to just buy a replacement burner for a propane grill, and set it on low, I'll do it manually... With no meter, I can make a good estimate on how much to burn by how long the tank lasts and the size of the flames, using a generator for a few winters, i think I can make a pretty good guess.

What did you pay for it?

I'm on a budget, and I can make one for about 20 bucks.

I paid a little more than 20bucks for this one. I always look at what I am buying, and usually buy the first one of anything I think I can build. I learn things about what and why they did things in manufacture that I wouldn't be able to readily duplicate before making a decision to build my own.
I'm not worried about the heat issue, as you mentioned and I have already decided I will have to do something different about air conditioning by next summer anyway, the one I bought doesn't have quite the capacity I need in order to introduce a co2 generator. It would do a nice job in the house, and that is why we made the decision to purchase it. It was the most we could afford at that time. We are all on some kind of a budget, our monthly nut is up there aways. I could have duplicated what you are talking about from spare parts I had. Natural gas installation will be a lot more convenient for me. VV:eyesmoke:

I had a propane one, sold it to a friend who put in the different burner tips made for natural gas... He loves it, no tank refills.

I have a half pig on my camping trailer, pay $75.00 a year for it so I don't have to haul anything but the tanks for my grill. This one has two of the four burners in it, I'm just going to have to change the whole room to use it efficiently. I can put all of the flowering tables in a straight line, all I have to do is move all of the plumbing to the opposite side of the room and move and rehang all of the lights, probably have to change the venting for them as well. And of course change the curtain from north/south to east/west. I may just run it for a month without making a lot of changes and see what I can see. VV

Hello VV, a man i have a question for you did you every have s problem with your northenberrys?? b/c for some reason these lil bastereds are giving me a hard time,, all the other strains are running good it only the big northen cutting that are kicking my ass am not realy feeding them yet they only have had one watering and are due for another one tomarrow, but well ... all the northen berrys are kinda yellowing but not just the bottom its more like the whole plant ,at first i though maybe its needs more Nuts but then again they could not of used up all the nuts in the soil after a week. one of the NB cuttings is doing better then the rest but i think it maybe be falling in the same direction. ..Where they all from the same mother or Different?? hmm or maybe they are in shock but for some reason i cant beleave that.

ill give u more info tomarrow but i have to get back to school work for now i may pop some pix up to show u.

My NB is doing very well in the hempy bucket.

Hey Vic,
Did I give you some Stinky Widow Cindy beans?
If I did, you need to plant them, this shit is good,
makes me want to rip out what I got going and start over.

Yes you did, and no I am not going to rip it out and start over. Hazy you should be able to give those northern berry full nutes by now. For the first couple of watering you probably would put some water into the block, it takes a while for the roots to grow down into the soil. You could check and see if that is the problem by pulling apart the worst looking one to see. There should not have been any transplant shock, all you did was place it on soil and fill around it, unless the soil was real cold. VV

Let me rephrase that question you smartass.

Where did you get the seeds to grow juicy fruit ?

CaliGurl sent me the seeds, she now has four of your varieties, WC,SW,BG and..???
There are a few of them scattered in the next few harvest. I have a couple I am still working with for mothers. I knew you would appreciate it. And it is now the Michigan Medical Marihuana Law. The first widow/cindys are being harvested today. VV

:weed:

The humidity in my basement is 35-40%

The stuff dries pretty quick in there,
but it's a long way from cured.

I chopped most of the hempy buckets last night.

I'm gonna move three hempy's in with the space shuttle,
once I start the bloom cycle.

The shuttle is coming up on 11 nodes this morning,
so the days will be getting short soon.

this juicy fruit is barely dry let alone cured, and that is my winter problem. When I have to heat the room I do not have room for my bud dryer. I will have to put the first one I made back into use for a couple of weeks. VV
