Hey Aero, best of luck with your adventure this summer and I really hope it all stays safe for you.

I live on the East side, and large grows like this are tough to keep under control. I have a little experience in this area and I have a question for you.

How do you plan to trim 360 pounds of homegrown on the East Coast? I'm serious, I would like to know how you plan to do this. Do you use a trim machine during any stage? Are all the trimmers people you know/trust?

That was always what got me, the trim marathon. I don't have time to trim plants all day anymore, I have a 'real' full time job and a family, and my trusted friends all have jobs. It's gotten harder as I've grown up to find people I trust who don't have anything better to do than trim my weed.

I've talked to my retailer about unloading ALL the processing on him. I told him I would greatly reduce the price, but would be selling him mature plants right out of the ground. Even then, I don't really trust him anymore. I feel if he got popped I would most definitely be named, and I don't have a person who I can offload 5 digits worth of bud to that I trust, and I don't deal myself at all.

I always tell people that ask me about growing large numbers of plants, "Any fool can grow a 12 foot outdoor cannabis plant, that's the easy part. It is drying/trimming/selling large quantities of cannabis in an illegal environment that is tricky."

Can you at least vaguely explain your harvest plan for this? Do you sell to med-clubs or black market? Are the sells anonymous or people that know you, and if they know you, do you trust them not to name you if they get caught selling your weed?

Just a little interest from a fellow grower, don't feel pressured to answer if you think it jeopardizes your safety. Once again, best of luck and I hope it all works out for you.

I did 4lbs in 1 night with this machine. with a few other dedicated peeps we could bust out the whole crop in a few weeks.

If you are pulling 100+ lbs a year WTF would you waste your time at a "real job" for? Self employment FTW!

Slacker!:)

Sounds like you need to listen to I.Smoke.Tush. He seems like the Jedi of growing. I love it when everyone tells you what to do. Because obviously you don't have a clue, right? Shit is just hanging by a fucking thread. At any minute it will all just fall apart. Thank god for all of the tips and tricks from the trolls. Whatever would you do without them. If you don't show pictures it didn't happen. I sure don't need a picture to know someone is a dumb ass. :)
I would love to work with you for one season just for the fun of it. The scale of what you are doing sounds like it would be a great adventure. Lots of ups, Lots of downs, but also lots of stories. I will be watching this shit.
 
Aero my question is how to you plan to water 50 or a 120 plants in 200 gallon grow bags. That would be alot if water. What's your watering technique(s)?

Just curious.

Good luck and hope it goes well this season for you.

Ill be watching this one, got my seat ready.

Keep the haters hating

thats a big plus about some area's in the northeast, alot of rain= less watering, especially if its a swamp grow!

Dude this crop is gonna be insane. The crazy thing is if ur in maine, u could just say fuck it if u wanted and do 99 300gallon smart pots in ur back yard (if ur way out in the boonies) and only be facing misdameanor charges (if they even fly over that is), gotta love that right there!!!

Best of luck this year man!!!

nice price on the EWC's.

Have you thought about making your own base mix.. to bring the price down? what's a brick of the promix cost off the pallet? under 20?

peat moss can be had for real cheap... get yourself some rice hulls, perlite (i would also include calcined DE for increased water retention) and a little lime.. and you've got pro mix for cheap

or you could bring it down more by including top soil (instead of 5 parts peat, you could do 3 peat, 2 topsoil)


How bout rock dusts.. do you include em?
