New grow space.

Sounds like a plan, now let's see how the land is when i goto The Big Island end of this summer. Wondering if anyone would say anything about having a basement put in on a new house over there? If i find some land this trip, i'm buying it. Then i'll work with my brother on some house blue prints. You can bet i'll have a nice size basement, if i have the house built new.

What they are doing over there is burying 20' and 40' containers. There strong with marine grade paint on the exterior. Trench a hole bury that bitch and then buid your house on stilts or on grade right above it. A 20' container is alot of space, it's like 20'long x 8'wide x 9'tall, the 40 is the same except 40"long. They are cheap over there because of all the port traffic in and out. They make good above ground storage units also.

Stand alone power is the next piece of the puzzle(solar, on grid, generators), water not a big deal either a well or water catchment.

i wonder how deep you have to go to throw off the heat signature of grow lights?

I might have to check into that. Wonder how much you could get one of those tanks your talking about over on the Big Island? There's way's around the heat signature of grow lights. The United States Army Research Institute Infantry Forces Research Unit had me come over for awhile to test some classified gear and tought me some tricks on how to mask my heat signature, when i was operating as a Company Sniper in the middle east. There's ways and not hard to get the job done. Texas, you going to the cup this year? I'll be there, got my ticket and will be paying for my room this month and ordering my judges pass also. Not, to worried about the contest, want to meet up with some members and see Gypsy and the gang?

I have a bunch of customers up in Medford, Prineville, Eugene, Bend, Portland, etc.. you can probably guess what industry I'm in.

Looking good ther Texas. Glad those babies are doing fine. They look pretty good and don't see any problems. How well does that cloning machine work? Won't how long you normal wait till you see roots? Very nice room, can't wait to get my first house and go HOG Wild.

Lookin' good, Tex! A/C, cable, an intercom... oh, man, all you need now is a wet-bar, a pool table and you'd be set! Oh, wait, that'd be too hard to keep people away. lol Your new setup looks great!

BG, the cloning machine is 100% so far with every strain. There is a better way to build one cheap but the technique is failsafe. I usually get roots that are just starting to stick out off the stem in about 3 or 4 days. By day 8-10 usually multiple roots 6"-8" long. I cut the bottom out of the 2" net pots also so the roots hang free and when I transplant to hydro media I don't have to untangle them from the pot. "Green Fuse" root stimulator/hormone solution is the shit also. Going to the hydro store tomorrow my brutha. I'll try not to spend that much.lol

TAC, The pool table is already picked out and some classic pinball and arcade games should follow. As long as I have room for my hot rod toys. I thought about a keg fridge on tap but then I have a bunch of tards hangin out at my house. I,m not a big drinker anyways.
