Update on the veg tent. Going great still. Still haven't changed the water. Might do that tomorrow. Just been keeping it topped with fresh water and nutes.
Got my flower lights mostly built today. They ended up just slightly heavier than the flimsy frames I had before. Theyll get eye bolts on the backs to attach my hangers to. Will hang them offset like that in the tent fairly close together.

I have never experienced a "too high" from edibles. I hope these end up strong enough for me. Ill just eat half the tray if not lmao.
My tolerance is skyhigh. I have to smoke nearly a full G at a time to feel much and have to smoke an 8th to get anywhere near "baked" feeling anymore. I miss the days of feeling like i was melting into the bed or couch.
I really want to start playing with edibles more, theyre great for my neck and hip pains, I just havent had anything strong enough to blow my mind.
this was the first time I used kief to make anything so I just sent it and used it all.
Sounds like some sauna could help you out, cleansing ur body is great to get that high u want when you have become to tolerant.

This past months utility bill was under $300 and we still had the heat on some of the month. That's electricity, water, and gas. For a 4 bedroom house plus a fully active grow in a bigger city that doesn't have amazing rates plus we pay for everything that goes down the drain too.
If I run a veg and a flower at the same time it's closer to $400.
The lights and heater are the biggest portions. Everything else combined pulls less current than the heater.

Yah, I couldn't believe when I was looking at new small fan heaters in lou of mine starting to crap out on me, becoming loose and rattling to where I'd have to give it a good "SMACK" to get it to shut up for a few minutes before starting to do it again, that on the high setting they pull 1500fuckin watts just for that 8" circular heating element!!!

Yeah I have a 20x30 basement roughly. Access to hot and cold water and a floor drain.
I knew it was a perfect space to do this the instant I saw it.
Gas furnace and water heater down there too.
It just gets a little chilly in the winter with the leds not making much heat. I had a hard time keeping it above 75 and I've liked running 80-82.
I don't have to run ac in the summer if I keep the fan on in the furnace to circulate air around the house. It pretty much stays on all the time in flower anyway.

floor drain is really nice. mine is close by just in case we ever join the Flood Club.

what i'd really like? something like an 8x8x15. just do a massively tall stadium grow around a few vertical 600hps in the center. one grow and i'd have enough for at least a year.

Lolololol well... I can only wonder why you wouldn't use Thouies? 600w HPS? 15' tall is a lot of headroom. Youre gonna need some serious ladders....... Or scaffolding.... :P

I bought my chiller off a dude outside of Denver that my whole 2100sqft house would fit in his basement.
After the laws changed he broke his 99 plant grow down and was getting into crypo mining. He had several large crypo setups going already when he showed us around.

Had to have had at LEAST 15 foot ceilings in the basement.

i got a whole bunch of Tractor Supply scaffolding. lol. but you get my point, stadium grows are by the far the best use of space.

Dry weight is in. Im lazy, its a lot, and its all for personal use. I will smoke everything in all of the jars!
Shits dry and jarred in half gallon jars.
Dried it out a bit too much. Kinda sad about it.
Still smokes and smells great though!
6 plants
-600g of nice purple top buds.

-1440g of B grade buds that filled out decently but didn't really bulk up and purple. I used the food processor to grind it all up. Stores the same when jarred and easier on me in the long run.

-2 Pounds of leafy/airy buds/larf that will get made into hash or butter/oil. This is mostly bud weight.

for this strain yeah. its as good as I hoped, but as a few of you pointed out, its not a big yielder. If i only have time for a few more rounds im not going to waste time going the same thing.
Emptied the cloner before I left last week.
Going to pick seeds for the next run here in the next few days.

we’re talking seeds what’s the best germination method brothers
I just get a folded up paper towel pretty damn wet with pure RO water, place seeds into it, fold it in half again to sandwich the seeds and put that into a small sandwich size ziploc bag. Then this goes on top of something that makes a little bit of heat. Like on top of a fluorescent light or a t.v. because the warmth helps so much. 48hrs later, they're all cracked open with inch long taproots.
