thats weird. I could have sworn i posted earlier, right after post #1481. But now its not there. Maybe i didnt send it. I dont know:dunno:. Anyways...

All it said was basically what JW said. I think i just asked Third if he really feels the need to make us feel even more inferior:moon:.

I thought somebody can only be on the Suk list once?

dan- check your inbox. thanx:tiphat:


JW- round two is on:monkeyeat:biggrin:

There is a cute shy little asian chick that lives next door, about 5'2". She has had a couple boyfriends, but may be single now. Probably 25 years my junior.

Her barbequeing always smells great. She sits out there talking to my dogs through a crack in the fence, while she cooks.

Today, I finally called out to her that her cooking smelled fantastic! She was bashfully flattered and asked if I would like to try some. I said yes, and 15 minutes later she was calling out to me with a big full container of barbequed chicken breast tenders with a great home made sause on it. I ate half of it and am having the second half tonight with steamed rice, cabbage, carrot, and onion. It is some bomb meat.

She has a real heavy accent, and I didnt understand much of what she said, but she liked feeding me, and was very friendly, smiling bashfully the whole time. Maybe asian chicks dont dont worry so much about age. That would be cool. Id love to taste her fortune cookie :biggrin:

Par dried DG2 into Dry Ice Kief

Par dried DG2 into Dry Ice Kief

This bud is from the big DG2 plant with the fragrant sweet tart buds. The buds were very large but somewhat fluffy. Most of that plant will probably be made into water hash, because the terpenes are heavenly. I just need some kief to smoke.

Its just loaded with sweet tangy trichomes

This plant was a failure in one area. Density. Thats a killer though. The flavor and high are remarkable. All clones from this plant will be destroyed, and the plant made into wonderful fragrant stoney Hash

Heres the first grab. The tumbler is still rolling

This Kief smells like chocolate Orange I used to get in my Christmas stocking. You know, the one wrapped in foil? It has a chocolate liquor. sweet Orange odor, and is super stoney. Nice sweet smack right in the center of your head.

Damn Doc, i could make some use of that. Looks high quality:tiphat: Good kief clumps. I use to get those same Chocalate Oranges too! I think they make different kinds now-a-days. I think i saw a raspberry one. That prolly be fire. Anyways, choclate orange kief sound absolutely delicious!

Dan or anybody that can help:help:...

Long story short, I got a letter the other day from my power company saying for approx. the next 2 months they will be "upgrading the system in my area" (whatever that means). So from time to time, my power will be out for 1 to 8 hours at a stretch! They said the work will only be done from 8:30 am to 4:30 pm. So it wont affect my lights too much, because my lights are on: 7 pm(on) to 7 am(off) for flowering, and 7 pm(on) to 1 pm(off) for veg. So it will mess with my veg lights a little, but im not really too worried about that. What I am worried about, is my aero cloner. So i did some looking on the internet, and i found something called a Durracell Powerpak. They have them in different size models. A 300 watt, a 600 watt, and i think 900? Anyways, so i wanna order the 300 watt one right now. This may be a stupid question, but ill be able to run a 30 site Ez cloner and a 48 watt t5 on 300 watts right. An EZ cloner cant take 250 watts right??(BTW take into consideration the Ez cloner is a little bigger than the kind you use dans, they hold twice the water so im guessing it might have a stronger pump than the one you have.)

Prolly a stupid question, but I'm about to order it now, and i wanna make sure i dont need to get the 600 watt version.

Dans probably knows this one, but Id get the 600. Theres transformer draw/loss as well I think, if its anything like industrial electric. We lose alot from stepping power down. We have a direct line from the power company to our substation. I cant remember how many volts it is coming in, I think it may have been 53-57000 V. Stepping it down to 440, 220, and 110, and you lose a bunch.They get power dirt cheap so it doesnt matter. I pay through the nose for mine, so I only grow indoors in winter.

those things are meant as an emergency power source for computers mainly,just to give you enough time to save data and shut down,i dont think they really last for that long,probably minutes i think...pappy,just get something like an underbed sweater tote and fill it with water on those days and just float em during the work hours,not going to hurt them at all...

Gotta agree with the wisdom. Clone without power for a while.

I know I've been playing with aero lately but I get 99% with regular methods.

RR's on a wicking mat, coco with a relatively dry moisture content, rockwoool, water...

Point being, if given a good healthy top you should be able to get roots no matter the tech used.

well,my feeling has always been there will still be space for the boutique growers in the long run,its a factor in my long term planning here...while the gettin is still good im investing in the tools that will allow me to be self sufficient in the long run...i have enough space for a couple of greenhouses,with two roofs available i should be able to build up a grid tied solar system that will zero my electric bill...i will continue to get more woodworking tools and get that going as a side business.over the next year or so i should be med legal and have started to come back above ground so to speak...an honest tax paying citizen and whatnot...getting another bike trailer at some point that will allow loads up to 400lbs so i can free myself from 99% of car use...im down to 500 miles or less a year spent in cars..dont miss it at all...

exactly why I don't want gg4 getting to the clubs in cut form, got to keep something to have that they don't.

Hi Pappy,
You should be able to check the wattage of your aerocloner pump by looking at the pump itself.
How long does it last at the chosen wattage?
do amps make a big difference here?

I use to run my laptop off a power inverter 12v -120v when the power went out. I only used it at night to watch movies on. this will work for anything running 120v. The bigger the inverter the more it will run but use up the battery faster. Prices range from 125$-700$ for 1500w.


One like this would run my laptop for about 6-8hrs of constant use befeore the battery needs charging. The more things you can turn off like screen britness the longer it will run. This unit is digital 80$ for 1500w

Heres what I do

Heres what I do

I run an Inverter too. real nice and quiet, with electric start and a hand pull back up. at 700watts it will run 20 hours. It last along time even at full power though, (Close to 300watts). Great investment for any serious grower.
