A Guide to Fishsticks

mornin campers...trimming....that will be all

Here's the deal with mini splits,
they are all pretty much the same as far as work ability and warranty.
The difference in warranty is how it is conducted. Major brands like Dakin, carrier, train, and a few others easier if you're a dealer but if you're not the warranty is pretty much useless. I installed a carrier mini a few months back and had to replace a sensor on the indoor part last week. Wasn't an issue because I'm a dealer but to get warranty you have to do a check list with tech support.
Mho is they all work great as long as they work. When they stop working, you may as well get a new one.

Thanks for the heads up, Generation Grow that I deal with for lighting,nutes,and everything else grow related has a Comfort Star 3 ton out the door for 1700 ,as compared to 3500 for the Mitsubishi.
Difference is Generation Grow treats me right and takes back anything that fails while within the warranty period,and sends you on your way with a new one same day....Maybe I'm better off just saving the cash and going with the Comfort Star it sounds like.
Thanks SJ

Just make sure a licensed HVAC guy installs it for warranty if needed

I have had good luck with mitsui but have also had good luck with pioneer, gree, mr cool, lg. i don’t think you can good wrong with getting the one your ac guy thinks you should get, especially if he is aware of the situation and thinks he can get parts easier for what he installs. Its all about the install but its pretty simple to get right. I have a couple cheap ones that have been running nonstop for 8-10 years. I went with traditional split units in the new place and kind of regret it. They don’t like it when it gets real cold outside but the mini splits never notice.

 

[unclefishstick]

just got a call from my useful friend who's about to be my boss much sooner than i was expecting...it looks like a license should be coming through so looking to get things rolling with a greenhouse auto crop starting in march just to get the ball rolling...but like 4000 of them...so i guess it's time for negotiations as far as salary and benefits....no numbers mentioned yet,but the word "handsome" salary mentioned....we shall see....i'm hoping "handsome" means somewhere around 100k per year...

100% my HVAC guy lives right around the corner ,20 years + licensed,and works for one of the bigger companies in the state.
I've run my cheap 3 ton Midea for 7 years, and he's always been there within a day or 2 anytime I've had an issue,and dealt with tech support on the phone right then and there.
He's quite a bit more for an install than the guys the grow shops throw at ya,but having a reliable hvac guy for install and service is worth it in my book.

And he has the quote from the supply house in hand from the supply house for the Mitsubishi so I dont think he's greasing me too bad on the unit.

Thanks for the good looking out SJ

Yeah the cold is a concern up here , I think it's like 5 outside right now.
I hear ya on the hvac guys advice,he'll install whatever I want,but I know he prefers the Mitsubishis.
I think he does alot of them , so hes prolly comfortable with them.Which I guess is a win for the consumer.
thanks man

See there's a reason to take all those extra cuttings

apparently the state just increased the plant count from 8000 to 16000...so yeah,there will be lots of cuttings involved...but that will be monkey work,i'll be management

So they’re going to triple your salary

So they’re going to triple your salary

i don't have a contract yet....but they seem amenable to some provisions i would like...parachute clause and possibly having the first couple years of salary in escrow so if it goes belly up i'm covered

 

[NEW ENGLAND]

Hey Unc .....can I use your name on my application as QC consultant.
I'll tell ya right now ,none of it will pass.

I'll have to confiscate the entire crop

 

[star crash]

That’s the most important thing get your butt covered regardless , they’re paying you for your knowledge , experience, and your skill.. it’s in an enormous responsibility to shoulder in a big operation.Especially if things go “south” during flower… my own personal goals are much more humble, thankfully New York is gone legal they’re going to be issuing licenses in 2023 , depending on the costs my intention is to be going for a micro business ticket , specifically under the “disenfranchised” provisions that they’ve written into the law ..meaning people such as myself who’ve been unfairly punished or prosecuted in the past are supposed to be given special consideration.. if I can get a legal license I’m already all set with a potential facility! then I can do what I wanna do and sell to the dispensaries … I should mention that all the local municipalities (including my own) have already opted in for both dispensaries and consumption sites…

 

[star crash]

I would say Director of extraction is probably the most bulletproof position

well sure,but then you'll need to pay my very steep fee for using the unclefishstick™

i would have far preferred to go micro-license but the city is saying nothing in residential areas

You can get a fan cycle switch for around 30 bux to overcome that issue. Most mini splits have on built in.

Yeah i put those on all the condenser lines already. They are 2 speed 18 seer condensers and its trying to protect itself somehow and i have to reset the air handler breaker and the fan fires right up. I am about to replace the condensers.

It does look like they have some more adjustable head pressure fan cycle relays i should try. http://www.hvactrainingsolutions.net...ling-controls/

Sounds like a good opportunity to bank some money Unc.
