My biker was male, and I dropped him on top of my PV :( So fucking sad, pretty sure the Purple Voodoo was my female too, there was no saving her.

She was about to hit flower too :( Argh, I made my veg space bigger and it's turned out it's still not big enough.
you could have done an emergency clone of her. Shit i have seen grafting work also to save a strain.

I might have 2 weeks of work left. then its full time garden. So my brother says to me last night hey you better have a generator on standby this winter i have a feeling. I will dig out my 4000 watt honda and have it on standby with 5 gallons of gas( that will run at 3000 watts for almost 4 days with a full tank and 5 gallons. I hope i dont need it but I always listen to warnings from him, he is usually right.

I've been feeling the same way for a couple months now. A simple power outage would totally fuck me if it lasted for more then a day or 2. Especially if its super cold out and my heaters aren't working either. I really want one of the Generac whole house generators. They run off natural gas and instantly come on to power your house if there is an outage. Sadly i don't have 5k to toss at one :(.

Same here, but damn them things are nice. I would be happy with a 5k honda.

Yea but a 5000 or 6000 watt honda is workable for the grow and frig. That is all i need and in the $2500 range.

Okay i have a 4000 watt honda or so. My dad is down the road he has a commercial 8500 watt generator brand new never used yet and a 7500 watt diesel generator that can hook right into the house power and has instant on. I got options and i have 20 gallons of diesel 10 miles away at our shop. I can move the honda myself but the other 2 are huge. I wont be without power to long if God is willing.

yes and in a pinch that is a great buy. even if it lasts 2 years who cares its cheap and will run most houses with gardens. Or at leaset the furnace/fridge and grow room. I have mine planned to run those and tv/computers/directv also.

the honda is expensive because they are much quieter than the generac. quiet is good if you plan the run it at night. I have a 15000w portable generac, and it is loud.

The key is to get one sized for what you need along with a big enough gas tank to run long enough without needing a refill at the wrong time.

My 15k running in the winter with minimal electrical draw and no grow running will burn up about 22 gallons in a 24 hour time. Thankfully it has a 16 gallon tank.

I need to get a smaller generator for the winter months just to use less gas.
