Stay where you are, the market is flooded.
Allow me to add, not trying to be a dick but even dispensaries are going out of business. If you're looking to be a weed flea, wait for the next state to legalize then jump. This market had had two years of people doing the same thing, you're a little late.

Anything interesting going on in OK?

@DoubleAtotheRON How are the new babies doing? Mine started showing their first roots through the rooting plugs at 11 days. Today is going on 14 days, and I can see roots on around half of them.
Still on the struggle bus.... put the heat mat under one tray of 50 of a strain that I really want to grow again. I just need 50% of them to root! No roots since 12/25. I put the heat mat under them a couple of days ago, so we shall see. Other than that, we're looking at popping some new strains like Gold Leaf, California Dream... and looking for another.

If you are not fully funded and have everything paid for.. including your home, vehicles, credit cards, land, your grow op ... you're gonna be fucked. Fortunately, we are in this good position.. we owe nobody nothing. So, we can continue to grow and fetch $2200 or so a lb and $300-$400 for trim. Gonna get all we can while we can, cuz it's gonna come to a halt pretty quick.

If it gets to OR prices, I may have to go work a forklift at a warehouse part time for the health insurance. LOL!.. But!, we've been good to our 401K's over the years, and I likes my sleep... both of us get up around noon.. maybe 1 pm on a cloudy/rainy day... and i dont want to give that up. This is what's great about being a grower, you can set your own schedule. We do stay up till like 3-4 am watching Adult Swim or music documentaries... and that's called freedom my friends.

I used a $1 per 1oz tub rooting gel I got off of the dank deals on growgreenmi.com (they have awesome dank deals. I check it every day) and put mine under 7" humidity domes. I used some rooting plugs I got off Amazon. I put the heating mat on top of a towel and put the temperature sensor between the heating mat and the tray. I set the heating mat to 79F. After dipping the cuttings in the gel and putting the cuttings in the rooting plugs, I put a little bit of water on the plugs so they'd be plenty wet.

They are under a 105w 4500K CFL that's in a cheap aluminum reflector spaced about 20in above them.

About half have started showing little baby roots. It seems that two of the strains must be easier to take cuttings because of those two, all are rooting. of the other two, one has a couple showing roots, and the other has none showing roots. Once the first one showed roots, I removed the humidity dome for about 5 minutes each day and blow on them lightly to give them a little dry air. I started leaving the vent holes open after the first one showed roots. I did have to add a little more water to the plugs around day 12. They're all looking perky. A few have one of their lower leaves turning yellow.

Thin and flimsy, but they do the trick on the cheap.

Best heavy duty tray I've found. The top's not heavy duty, but it's stronger than I expected. It will last. The tray is very good.

Yeah man, Im using domes, and it's literally raining in there, but I think I just need some more surface heat.. I was counting on the lower T5's to provide that, but apparently it's not enough. IF these pop roots in the next week, i'll order a bigger mat to cover 150 plugs.

Let’s talk security. We have cameras all over the place, digital trip wires, and now we are designing manual trips. We took this idea, and are making them out of steel so they will withstand rain, snow, etc. Going to place these 00 buck shot rounds in various places. It will disable a trespasser fast!.. it’ll give me time to hear the round, and go down and take care of things. 8F0FD0D5-99D6-4BBE-811A-1C990FD0AC38.jpeg

Disclaimer: we live remotely, and basically have no laws as long as it’s on your land. We can shoot high power weapons at any time of day or night, set fires (except under a county fire ban), set off unlimited explosives, and be within the law, disable anyone that crosses your perimeter that is not welcome, or feel is making you uncomfortable...we have a great sheriff that supports your rights and second amendment. Coyote snare traps are also a great option. What’s some of your security tips?
