It's convenient at the time as I'm vegging some others :) and its my first grow in 5 years. Nice and simple. I've strived to keep Temps in that vpd golden zone. And canopy around 90. Working very well, although my humidity is almost always too low in the 20s and 30s

Hmmm interesting. I think it was some of your posts that initially led me to the vpd charts. Where do u like your temp and humidity? I'm ranging from as low as 59 rarely at 40%rh up to 77 tops with as low as 27%rh Average

I adjust mine usin heat index, I use this calc ,

http://www.easysurf.cc/cnver16.htm

and adjust temp and humidity to be 4 points above ambient

as example the numbers you presented would not be good as a temp of 77 and rh of 27% give a heat index of 77.47 but if you were to lower the temp to 72 your heat index would be 75.91 (roughly 4 points) and your plants would thank you

That actually makes a lot of visually evident sense. Towards the end of the day as the heat goes up I definitely notice the difference. Most of the day I'm around 70 but it's warming up around these parts.

Thanks a bunch for the calc.

I remember paying $200 a pound for Colombian, but you had to buy 200 lbs at a time. On front street, of course. Sold pounds for between $300 and $350, depending on the quantity. When I was weighing pounds out of the bale, I'd pick the best buds and save 'em - cherry red, bight gold, black and gold, pinkish gold... I'd use them myself, or sell fat ounces of the primo buds to my friends for $30 a lid. They really thought that was a great idea.

Many believed "The Company" originated in Chicago, but news articles prove differently:

"The Company," of which The Bluegrass Conspiracy was written, began in 1976 in East St. Louis, Illinois when Richard Dial Thorp, a former Viet Nam helicopter gunner, along with some friends, formed a corporation-styled smuggling operation with the purpose of importing TONS of marijuana and making TONS of money.

The marijuana was imported from Colombia, South America and landed in four states: Missouri, South Carolina, Georgia and Alabama.

Thorp's security man for "The Company" was named Robert Snyder, who was a well-known polygrapher (lie detector specialist) and worked in pornography in St. Petersburg, Fl., and also with the Lexington, Kentucky police department. There, he became affiliated with Drew Thornton and Bradley Bryant.

The Company was said to have 2-300 members and was huge, and international. Many believe it is still in operation today.

Thorp eluded police after being caught twice and bonding out twice. He lived underground and "on the run" for years even during the time Drew Thornton fell out of the plane. Thorp was finally caught by the FEDS. Thorp's Georgia manager, Michael Grassi spent some time in prison and then when released continued his smuggling adventures.

The security man, Snyder appeared in federal appeals court in Eastern Kentucky regarding four of his forty counts related to the smuggling enterprise and RICO Act–– the year was 1988.(872 F. 2d 1351 - United States vs. J Snyder) Within the text of the case are these words:

"......When Snyder took the stand in his own defense, he testified that his involvement with the Company was at the direction of a now deceased federal drug enforcement agent named Harold Brown, as a government informant."

In her book, "The Bluegrass Conspiracy," Sally Denton wrote extensively about the DEA Agent, Harold Brown, and she mentioned Snyder briefly:

".....Robert Snyder, a nationally known polygrapher who had performed lie detector tests for the Lexington police, was charged with ordering the murder of two informants–– one named "Big Red" from the St. Louis, Illinois, area and another named William Wade Hampton from Georgia. Snyder, who Ralph knew had been associated with Bradley Bryant and Drew Thornton since Snyder's employment with the Lexington Police Department, immediately went into hiding...." taken from p. 136, The Bluegrass Conspiracy, Sally Denton
