First time growing in 10 years, tell me what you think of my setup

[budleydoright]

Lots of supplements are snake oil. Many are overpriced simple concoctions made from molasses and other forms of sugar. I didn't think the GH floranector poduct was bad, but like I said, it is basically a cup of molasses and a gallon of water. I don't need to pay 60 bucks for that.

I'm not 100% on this but aren't these flushes just another suger tit. Sucrose and water i believe.

And no I didn't mean you were missing something here, If you are happy with the results and feel confident in your advisor there's nothing wrong with following their advice. I'm just pointing out that many of the products that we buy are repurposed household items sold at a high markup.

I use a marey 5l tankless water heater for my co2 burner. Same unit as the hydrogen with out their label. I was told that the Hydrogen had tweeks made to the burner to make it more effecient and safer. So a couple of Doods in the hydro industry "Schooled" the Chinese engineers on combustion huh? No I'll take my chance with the marey at 30% of the price and keep the rest in my pocket.

its all good man, I was just letting you know.

I wasnt trying to tell you what to do or anything..

See you in a few

 

[berkman858]

No worries guys I was just drunk last night and got my panties in a bunch when you guys told me that I bought snake oil. I hate when I get "sold" on something stupid.

BC - see you soon. I am ready to eat a good burger. I have been working on my hunger with some Northern Berry this morning. I will bring some of that and some Cheesy Smurf with me today so you and Wheels can try them out.

 

[wheels619]

Damn I'm the only one missing out on the fun??? The east coast sucks!! Atleast if ur a grower. Trying to find others is nearly impossible. I was in the hydro store a few days ago and while I was shopping there was another black dude in there , a little older than me. Maybe in his 30s. When he saw me his face lit up (no homo) , he had the look like " I know what ur here for" lol . It sucks that ppl look at me in the hydro shop and I feel like they can tell what I'm growing smh, I might have to start going to the hydro shop in a suit & tie lol. But anyway the dude had to say what up to me atleast 3 times (with a lil smirk on his face.. its like out here its so rare to find another grower, when u do u just wanna pick his/ her brain and ask em as much questions as u can. But at the same time everybody out here is so scared of getting caught few wanna really say too much... So even though I wanted to talk to dude , he looked pretty cool.. but I decided to just simply say what up back and continue my shopping. But u guys... Don't take what u have for granted, enjoy that beautiful cali weed, weather, girls , and ofcourse... Those lenient mj laws

 

[budleydoright]

I;m missing that shit too. don't feel bad. I do have a card in my state, but it isn't a free for all like Cali or Colorado. We can't exchange clones or stash just advice.

I'm tempted to take a few ounces to the local PD and ask them if they'll hold them for me in their evidence lockup. "Officer, I have a harvest next week and don't want to be over the 6 oz limit. I can't sell it or give it to another patient, so can you hold it for me until I need it!"

 

[berkman858]

Living in Cali has its advantages.

 

[Sims da smoker (Qboro)]

Lol.. the police gonna hold u with the weed. But atleast u have a card.. where I'm at hearing somebody has a med mj card is like hearing a fairytale

 

[Sims da smoker (Qboro)]

So Berkman.. how far along are u.. like week 6-7 of flower??? When u plan on harvesting???

 

[berkman858]

Lol.. the police gonna hold u with the weed. But atleast u have a card.. where I'm at hearing somebody has a med mj card is like hearing a fairytale

I completely understand that feeling, I have been out here in Cali for only 6 months so I am still transitioning over to a different way of thinking. It makes me feel better as a person just for the simple, stupid fact that what I am doing is now legal (locally) and I am not such a scumbag piece of shit for growing and smoking MJ. Back east I was a dredge on society but now I am a contributing member of society who is doing nothing illegal. What a difference a move west can make, I am never going back, NEVER!!!!!

P.S. - The first and most important reason I moved out here was the weather and it still is #1 but medical MJ is a close 2nd. This is because there are other places that have medical MJ but San Diego still has the best weather.

the hydro store guys are just trying to make the cash. some are good sales people and get u to buy some stupid shit sometimes. lol. i bought a gallon of flush one time cuz the guy said he used it religiously and that it works. read the ingredients on the side of the bottle and now i dont go to the hydro store when that guy is working. just wen t in when he was off and swapped it out. lol.

hydro stores love trying to sell shit to u u rele dnt need. i asked for and organic nute line with a basic grow and bloom setup, and the guy showes me nectar of the gods nutes, with 20 different bottles priced at 25 bucks each for the smaller bottles, they love when a new guy comes in asking what they need to grow

 

[Mr.Marijuana420]

I'm not saying they're bad. They are simply taking something that people are passionate about and exploiting it for a profit. Nothing wrong with that, I just don't like paying more for my fuel than I have too. I'll never forget the feeling I had after walking out of a hydro store with a gallon of hype (floranecter in this case) and realizing I just paid 60 bucks for a gallon of water and a cup of molasses. It's simple shit, elements. You can byt premixed pancake batter in a box or you can mix your own. You still end up with cakes.

BTW: a Sugar Tit is simply a wet finger dipped in sugar and suckled on by a baby. I guess you need kids to get that.

i feel that way about FF nutes also

I guess so, that was way over my head. I have a dog and no plans to ever have kids. Trust me, you and the world don't want me having kids.

I used to think the same thing. Best thing I ever did was become a father. I have few regrets for waiting until I was responsible enough, i had my one and only in my late 30's.

first time the baby was away from an ample supply of breast milk he cried relentlesly until his gramps did the sugar tit. I've heard that phrase used ln the context of "It isn't what you thought it was, but hey it'll work!"

Yeah I hear ya but that aint in the cards for me bro. Just take your baby shit elsewhere.

 

[budleydoright]

Just trying to wrap a little context around the phrase, not trying to pawn kids off on ya!

So I've got the 6th marked on my calander as the end of the 8th week. I think the indica may be done a few days earlier than that. Sativas are 2 weeks behind them and likely going to be 9-12 week strain. website gives an 8-10 week window. We'll see. Where you at?

 

[wheels619]

mmm. cougar and sour.

 

[Sims da smoker (Qboro)]

Don't look back.. all we have is cold weather, overdressed women, bad weed, bad weed laws, and pretty much anything associated with the word bad... I might have to move out there and change my rollitup name to " San Diego simmy" or " sunset Blvd Sims " ... Kinda corny, I know ... But I the point is.. I just wanna move west!!

I have June 2nd as the tentative harvest date but I am going to play it by eye and microscope.
