Total Noob using teas and I am a believer

I would highly recommend the Sugartown Express, Charity OG, and anything else. The auctions will be fun to watch. Way too rich for my blood. My wife would kill me if I bought a 500 dollar pack of seeds. Ask me about anything if you want.

Sheesh. The bank allways came up under construction when I was poking around. I don't have the money to do battle with the rest of the world over seeds. Thanks Gand. I'll keep watch for fun. Well some are on the watch list. For sure.

I have watched a run on the bastards and the grower is awesome and very picky in his keepers. Out of lets say 8 females 4 were deemed keepers. You will have exceptional plants that no one else in the world has. The Pepe Le Dank is a sick cross. The male is the Aloha White Lightening. Mix that with Shanti's G13 x Skunk. I have a pack of it. I want to see if this could be my skunk strain. I swear anyone wanting to get some Gage at insane values should look at these.

I'm hoping Rrog will pop in here and keep us posted on this project of his...

That's the design. I mashed a couple of existing ideas together is all. I had to draw it to get my head around it. It will look much like this when done:

I'll be taking pics and measuring things so someone else could build. This is easily able to produce enough volume to sell biochar if a guy wanted.

Soil and Tea porn

I was up at the local store to pick up a few things and they hooked me up with a few bags of this local Maine made mix. I am always looking to experiment and I thought I'd take them up on it. I was told by the locals who were there, and know the maker, that this stuff is exceptional and that he is an artist with everything he does in his life. I am going to run a few plants in it and see what happens. They told me water and a few teas only. Sounds good to me.

I knew Rrog had a project going on with constructing the oven. That must have been one hell of a meeting. I think it's so cool you guys get to hook up. The two of you are really great people. I am jealous. Talk about the best bio char.








My mix. 90 days.



Sea Monkey Doo



Ocean Garden



Teas I just made



you guys have all the good stuff over there.. I have to go on a scavenger hunt to find any ocean anything. Kelp meal is common but that's about it. I drive an hour for the crab meal I like.. Its still cheaper than ordering including the cost of gas. I have friends and fam over that way anyway. One would think with the ocean just being another 20 min away that there would be more... The only places that do their own composts and what not are small horse ranches.

I love Casey Jones. I have Breeders' Boutique Engineers' Dream which is a cross of the actual HTCC 3rd place winner Casey Jones cut from Devil's Harvest to Deep Purple Querkle. Of everything I have been growing and have grown the past , ED is as good as it gets and it may be better. I have some beans of Casey Jones from Devil's Harvest. I plan on finding a pheno to cross with in the very near future. I wish I could get my hands on that actual 3rd place winning cut. I would like hear about the Rainbow Jones as you get going. Take it easy.

I had to get Engineer's Dream. I heard of the recent BB sale and got
those beans that were on sale that I did not have yet, and then added
ED anyway. :0)

They threw in an interesting cross: Deep Blue x Engineers Dream

This should be fun.

I will be your first east coast customer. I am not kidding. You are not kidding around in this game Rrog. Damn impressive.

Anyone ever think of ways to put out electricity , I was thinking of a small motor with a pully hook it up to a alternator with a belt and then to a battery and power invertor, could start out wuth a 50 watt fan motor and end up with 1500 watts, couldnt be hard but im no engineer . I would love to have 20 , 1000 watt lights lol then 20 x 40 800 watts , instead of 20, 000.

M11- Solar panels? They've never been cheaper.

GdG- you can build this easy. I'm just tweaking it and posting the results. My point was a feller could build one and sell his biochar locally- it would make that much.

No not solar pans but I was thinking of running all my lights off of a system like, starts with a 12v car battery like a optima, then a hd alternator , then a postive and negative cable running to a power invertor, then to spin the pully on the alternator I would use a fan motor that has atleast 3000rpms, which really isn't much and might not be needed think of how your vehicle can charge your system on just 800 rpms, so the alternator is only used to charge thw battery I figure a decent fan would be between 40-100 watts maybe a tad more, they have power inverters that can handle 6000 watts, why not try to build it and I wouldn't worry about noise because itd be likw running your air pump for teas. If it's possible my sides and ceiling will bw nothing but 1000 watt raptor hoods lol veg room will have the generator in it. Make aure there isnt a fire hazard and if so have the equipment ready just in case.

I bet I could blow $1500 on the setup but itd be worth it. Couldnt be too hard if my dumbass thought of it, thank you marijuana, I use to be really good at making new shit for racing and if I could use my mechanical skills to save a buck and better my grow why not. I may need a bigger space soon if it works.

I honestly swear by BB. They have a very loyal following. I have their Sour Cherry too. The crosses they do are just badass.

I am running Sour Cherry right now. I popped more of those
than any other BB gear but PK, but I am hoping for the Lemon Pledge
pheno of PK.

I got Sour Cherry, Smelly Cherry, The Dog, and Psycho Killer that first
go 'round, and they threw in the aptly named Cheese Surprise. :0)

So, I am about three or four away from being BB Happy.

M11- this motor that starts everything- would this be a gas motor or generator? I'm not following what you're looking to do. Remote power where there is none?

Iys would start with a electric fan motor , I just want to be able to run as much wattage as I want for as cheap as $30 a month instead of $2000.

How are you going to generate electricity for the motor, solar, wind, hydro, nuclear, or hamsters rowing a boat.... ?They sell solar panels at Costco now. All the solar panels now are roll out blankets. They are not big contraptions that have to be mounted anymore.

Where I live all electricity from the power company comes from thousand of windmills and solar panels. That all supplies power for the whole valley. That could be why we pay $0.07 per kwh. 5 times cheaper than edison $0.33
