How hard do you work? Grow related.

[VagPuncher]

I just realized today that my GF and I water 1110 plants split btwn 5 grows everyday, 7 days a week, 365 a year.

600 veg plants and 510 in flower.

We have 1 worker who transplants and ties.

Growing is a hard job. To hard sometimes.

I am truly overwhelmed right now.


/End rant.

sounds like what you need is an automated watering system

 

[catalyte]

I feel your pain brotha, I know it,....our craft can be over- whelming at times, I felt the "bad feeling" when I worked with a weak pair of guys who where partners only by title. ,... thats alot of work for 2 people bro, the way I see it you got 2 options
1. work alone, In secure, cheaper enviroment. ( u know wher) hmmmmm
2. keep up what u been doing seems 2 be working well for ya ?
3. I would ask someone to cover for me for a wknd at least, you and GF could use a lil R&R ...
hmmmmm
hope this helps

For real.

You could always switch and just grow tomatoes...

 

[Friend]

Yes it does sound like a huge amount of effort, and difficult labor to make it all happen. But a lot of people would trade places with you in an instant...

man that sounds like a ton of fun.

My count is only 80 but even that amount seems like a chore.

Congrats on finding someone who shares in the hobby btw! that is awesome brother.

Do you have to dry and trim all that as well? outsiders think this hobby is all fun and games , but it really is good hard honest work.

On average? 10-15 minutes a day / 16 plants = -1 minute per plant per day. But I stare at them for hours.

Heres an idea - clone yourself and the gf. Youll have 1/2 as much work to do and itll all be getting done your way.

But I stare at them for hours.

Oh good, thought it was just me!

Oh good, thought it was just me!

Ahhh...gotcha-- I am a soil/GH guy...my bad--

 

[Jellyfish]

These days, if you're making a living, and you don't work in a meat packing plant, you're ahead in the game. A winner.

 

[kmk420kali]

I worked hard enough to harvest 179 lbs-- Thank Science for the Twister...cuz I really hate trimming!!

 

[rives]

Fuck that noise - I usually flower either 3 or 4 at a whack, and it works me harder than I want sometimes! And I hate trimming too - I even bought a SpinPro. Damn good investment.

 

[Space Case]

I'm back to small time grow. Not doing big commercial warehouses anymore. That overwhelmed feeling is gone, and my quality is up! Life is easy...
