    20,000 Watt Medical Grow Op Construction

    Avid calls for 8 to 16 oz/100 gallons for aphids. That's approx 1oz per 12 gallons. It reduces to about 4ml per gallon. Dipping the rootbal is the way to go. But, with a DWC settup it would be super important to treat the whole system at same time. Personally, I would treat all the rez water and...

    Thank You Uncle Sam!!!

    Nope. The puncuation didn't help. I still have no idea what the fuck you're saying. Take a breath, compose your thoughts, and try again. Or, better yet, don't.

    Thank You Uncle Sam!!!

    I'm not quite sure where you're going with this. Sounds alot like you're calling me a liar? Well, if I must: Spent 6 months at MDC fighting my case. Then, off to Terminal Island for 2 years where the factory made office furniture. I was in "J" block...next to the SHU. Then, after getting in...

    Thank You Uncle Sam!!!

    WOW! I'm only reading one half of this conversation. If someone doesn't bother to TRY and punctuate, I won't even TRY and read their post. Dan's point regarding "the good ol days" is well taken. The good ol days (1990-2000ish ?) were one hell of alot better for growers than smokers. Between...

    20,000 Watt Medical Grow Op Construction

    Thanks for all the nice comments. I will be trying some of that Bayer product. After an exhaustive inter-web search, I've found some facts about root aphids: 1. They are a new problem in weed gardens. Very little info about them prior to 2010. 2. They are FAR worse than spider mites, thrips...

    20,000 Watt Medical Grow Op Construction

    This Tahoe pic looks just like the Tahoe seed advertisement. The above pics show the bloom room. Tray one is bubba at 7-8 weeks. These were seriously stunted with root aphids. Tray 2 is at 2 weeks. These too took a root aphid hit. Most ended up short on mag. I believe problem is now under...

    Thank You Uncle Sam!!!

    Thank you all for the kind words. I did not intend to start an issue between us. I just wanted to point out the insanity that has taken over this issue. I also wanted to point out that we can all still operate and make money regardless of what the gov does. Hell, if just a few of us got together...

    Thank You Uncle Sam!!!

    Yes, I'm an ex-convict and even a prick at times. But, I do have enough brain power to recognise sarcasm. You missed the entire point. If you knew anything about me you'd know that my Collective donates free of charge unlimitted meds to any terminal, cancer, or AIDS patient that cannot afford to...

    The Clubs, They Lie

    It's the law. Any club that's giving quantity breaks is not 215 compliant. You can only be paid for your incurred costs to remain not for profit. A buck or 2 can be justified as smaller amounts take more transactions, which could cost more money.

    Thank You Uncle Sam!!!

    Yeah baby. Thank you Uncle Sam! Those pesky dispensaries were just getting in the way of the real money. With them on the retreat, we can start reverting to the good ol days. Hell, in time we may get wholesale prices up over 4k again. Just like the beginning of Prohibition, we are living in a...

    Where can i get some clones in San Diego?

    Well, your rant is so entertaining I'm going to add a touch of fuel to it. You won't get any elite clones in Los Angeles, either. Nope. In fact, you wont get em period. The clones carried at dispensaries range from shit to ok. After "OK" it goes "good", "very good", then "elite". The only way to...

    Wow. Thank you very much. The strain is Pre-98 Bubba Kush. Access to this strain is what made me want to get back into growing full time. The guy who gave me the cuts is on a lifetime quest for the best genetics anywhere. He has since given me 2 other elite strains. These genetics are the...

    DWC setup you've never seen!!

    I like the modified RDWC settup. The chiller will be a must. Having run a variety of hydro systems over the years I'm all too aware of what can happen in DWC warm water. What are you using for atmosphere cooling? Could you give us a report of how the dissolved O2 meter worked out for you? I...

    Lighting Question

    Yes on 400 watts for veg and the rest bloom. NO on lighting 10 x 10 with 1000 watts. I would light a 3x9 area with the 600 and 400, and then move the plants around to get even time under the brighter light. Even that will give you a little less than optimal lighting. But, with a 400 in there...

    Pulse Start Bulb Lumen Output?

    I tried 6 - 1000 watt pulse starts in the 6.4 color for my veg room. They lost 40% of their lumens in just a few months I woulkd not recommend them.

    I've had great luck with Spinosad for thrips. I will be using it as a part of our preventative program. Until then, it will be pure poisen. The Captain's stash is bad ass. That's pure 70's fireman stash. Remember that cat on Emergency? The goofy guy with the thick ass stash. Bad ol Boys.

    Random necrosis on my white widow, Very sick

    First off, Even if you're doing everything right, it may never "recover". What you're looking for is cessation of any new chlorosis and/or new necrosis. Detailed observation of individual leaves is needed to know if your actions have had any positive effect. That being said, I suspect insect...

    Anybody heard of "Cali gold genetics?

    That's a great question. I have friends that grow the Grape Crush and the Blueberry. All of this is exported East. When I have time I'll post a list of all the strains that have his blueberry in it. You may be suprised.

    Anybody heard of "Cali gold genetics?

    Seems like everything hit with DJ's prized male Blueberry yields fire. That stud male gets quite a bit of action. I was amazed when I read how many of today's great strains were fathered or grandfathered by that blue stud. One of those ultra high THC Blue Dreams crossed with the Great Blue Stud...
