Finding a smaller company that only grows their own and is constantly having different strains has proven better for me imo.
I was annoyed that I could rarely get the same thing at first, but the stuff from this place is always well cured and just right. I even got an oz of shake recently to make some edibles but it was so good I ended up smoking it lol.

We don’t have dispensaries here where I live but I can definitely see a problem with keeping cannabis fresh and or mold free. I only grow what I can use pretty quickly, freshness is key for me and my tribe

These started 12/12 on 12/11/18 so they are about 23 days into flowering. Another 47ish to go.

Strain is Gorilla Glue #4. With this strain I manage 42 to 48 pounds.

Each row that has the galvanized trellis rig have 2 plants. 6 plants per room, 2 rooms on a flip. Each room has 9600 watts of lighting. 6000 DE overhead and 2400w vertical end row lights with batwings plus I use and 2 x 600 watt verticals between rows. The side lighting is on a high temperature cutoff in the rare event things get too hot.

My plants are in black 10 gallon buckets. The 2 oddball plants in the rolling white 5 gallon buckets are my girlfriends plants.

All buckets are top feed drain to waste (bucket in bucket with hose to floor drain). I use Berger BM6 HP medium. I cut my clones from plants about 14-20 days into 12/12 so as to improve branching. Once rooted and transplanted into 10 gallon buckets my plants veg for about 40 days from clone in a dedicated veg room and are then moved into the flowering rooms after a harvest and cleanup. Then they are vegged another 10-14 days to get them trellised out sideways to maximize canopy area, create more bud stalks and keep it even as possible.

Feed is General Hydroponics Flora 3 part with Armor Si and Calimagic. I also add Advanced Nutrients B52 and Age Old Mycorrhizae (dry) and Advanced Nutrients Carboload to feed those microbes. pH 6.3 to 6.7 using Advanced pH up and down.

Each room has a 4 ton ceiling mount minisplits (also on the flip with the lights), natural gas CO2 generators, autopilot controllers, swamp coolers to add humidity when required and dehumidifiers to keep it from getting to high (not a problem often here in this dry climate). RO filter provides clean H2O.

For scale purposes the galvanized pipe trellis rigs are 5 feet tall from the floor, 4 feet wide and 8 feet long.

Dude he shows everything he does in this thread. Did you read the whole thing? While what he is doing is impressive, it’s makes perfect sense. He is growing huge plants with lots of wattage and climate control. No reason he needs to embellish anything when he gets results.

I’m not gonna lie when I saw 12 plants 40+ pounds I disregarded the post but if he’s monster cropping that changes things

Haven't monster cropped since I started running all these different strains. Just top them a few times, let them grow, then super crop them out under the trellis and let them pop all those nodes vertically before flip.
