Oahu Daze............Episode 1

Arthritis_sucks

Well folks I did it, made it to the islands finally. After 2 weeks on the Big Island on vacation in 09' we knew we wanted to move back here to paradise, an Oahu it was. This shall be an interesting journey having no rec shops to supply....damn its been a while. Ya get pampered having rec shops to dump you xtra to. Middle men an brokers are very missed by this haole.

Where to start, equipment i guess is a good place.
Lights will be a T5 4ft 8 bulb, an a Advanced led 5 watt cree 200 model. Bloom will be a ds400 or ds600 (which ever i can fund when the order needs to be placed. I got a clean address to send anything like equipment or seeds to so no worries on that end. I still have my extreme flower 180 model from advanced but it doesn't have great coverage for the space im trying to fill. Ventilation will be a 6" can fan with a can-lite filyer an a phresh muffler. I also have a speedster speed controller for the fan to quiet it a bit an I will be making a sound proof tote for the fan to be housed in. The room will be a 2x4x6 hydrohut silver that will be coming in a couple weeks. Nutes will be 6/9 till i buy a home cause i don't got room to cook dirt. Got a bunch of additives i give along the way which i will go into as they are used.

Strain is Mr. Nice's Black Widow, got 5 soaking now about to go into canna coco in mini solos with a precharge of caps root pack.

Problems from the start......
Ya cant leave a ph probe dry for 9 months. It will calibrate on the 7 but the 4 will only go down to 4.6.........can't buy a probe for a month so what ya guys think?

How far off ya think it will be?

Welcome to the Rock.

Welcome to the Rock.

The first problem you mention should not be a problem for very long. O'ahu is a sponge. Grow it and they will come. Your main competition will be good product from the BI.....and Maui, of course. Then there is lots of shitty Cali imports.

As for the clean addy.... Please. This is Hawaii. Noboby gives two rat turds about your little indoor trip. The cops don't bust down doors unless there's powder involved....maybe if you go out of your way to piss them off. But I doubt your that stupid.

As for helping you inside....that ain't my trip.

Good Luck.

Consider me suscribed.

I've been reading for a few years about Oahu not having enough an other islands shipping it over. Always good when supply cant keep up with demand. Outdoor is another beast for me as i have not grown in sun since my high school bagseed days. Gotta get a house first for the outdoor episode, couple years out for that.

I lay low an go with the flow. Welcome to my Daze Oldhaole:tiphat:

Thanks for subbin

@ MisterD
Thanx for the support D, can't wait to get some girls going.

Right on, good luck with finding a place. My ex-wife was a real estate agent/ mortgage broker so I always had to talk with her about her day. Wahiawa can get wet too, the closer you are to the Koolau spine the wetter it will be.
Yeah dude, it is summer...get a board and go Waikiki until you get it back or get runned over.

My son wont be here long since he is going to Humboldt state in aug. My daughter is only 4 so as long as she has dad shes happy.

We've found a few so far but i need to check the neighborhoods when the time comes. Does the ex still got her liscense? Maybe in a couple years she can help us find a spot....long ways out though.

Gonna get on craigslist next month an look for some foam. Better practice than be a speed bump huh, i hear that. Thanks for the heads up.

King Louie XIII Og x Bubba Ho Tep

King Louie XIII Og x Bubba Ho Tep

I think i'm only getting 2/5 Black widows to pop so I had to soak something else. This a cross that I made back in 13' where i dusted a branch an got about 60 seeds. It consists of MajPotheads Bubba Ho Tep male ( Decapitation x Insane Banana Kush f9) and the King Louie XIII Og sourced from Ape. Got 10 in water tonight to play with.

I had one member pop some an started reporting that they were a strong representation of the King, but he ditched his account when Gypsy got busted. So I never got past a 4 week in report on them.
