I love my ac! I use it for dehumidifing even tho I still have high rh sometimes and it's just nice to have everything set I don't have to go in my room for days at a time if I don't want to! (even tho I do lol) everything is automated lights fans Temps and I'm organic so that's even less that I have to do! I basically don't do shit! I water and stick my big nosey head in the room 100 tines a day and that's it!
The terps were kinda weak while growing but during harvest it got super loud and after a couple wk cure it changed to an acrid funk. This is one of the smells I have the hardest time describing.
Have no idea if GPS has the potential. Don't know the crew personally. It's pretty obvious we're the testers. The entire gig is in the beginning stages no mystery there. And from what you've said (if it's true) they are about at the level I thought they were lol. You can tell by growing out their gear.

This is my issue. 9 months of the yr my room is vented into my home and I like the extra heat.
So what do you do??? I can't afford to buy 10 packs of it! I like to find a pheno then clone the piss out of it! There has to be some way to make cloning easier!
I run my veg area off two plug ins. Not a big area. I run lights, a cloner at times, and a fan. Thats it. No need for ac. I've saved 80 per month compared to what i needed to do to cover the same area with adequate light. times that by 10 months, and there is the entire cost of those led's. Boom.
I have less than 550 bucks in my led setup. Adjustable from about 245-50 watts to 925 watts. DIY setup. I save a ton. My light was paid for after its first run. Plus I saved even more bc I dont have to run A.C. now. Leds if built right and run right can more than pay for themselves easily.
I went from running two 320 watt mh in veg and two 400watt hps and mars 292 reflector in flower. Plus two ac units. My electrical cost monthly were in excess of $450-500 a month. Since switching all to LEDs and doing away with the two ac units. My electrical bill has been under 220 bucks a month since the switch. So I know I'm saving money. In the short run and definitely in the long run.
So, you are saying I should cross is to Bubba Katsu cut and my Blockhead x Bubba heh? Coffee Coffee Coffee and indescribable funk sounds like a good mix. Thanks for detail profile.
I couldn't agree more. I made my frame and rack as si.ple and cheap as I possibly could. I made my own heat sinks. Out of 2x2 heavy square aluminum tubing. And cut 3 sides every inch. Mounted the led strip on the one uncut side. Super simple super cheap. And super effective. I'd honestly have to say my light heatsinks run leds cooler than real heat sinks.
match quality? have you grown with both hps and QBs? if you haven't grown with QBs then how can you have an opinion on the quality they produce? i grew with hps for almost 10 years before switching to QBs and saw a very clear increase in quality running cuts i had run multiple times in the exact same setup under hps.
really nice man! i threw two of these into flower 4 days ago, i hope i get similar results.
That would be a great cross.
Side by side will change your opinions on quality and yield as long as you are using full spectrum cobs. Cobs going full spectrum was what brought me to finally change. Spectrum was no longer a worry at that point and in fact improved with more usable blue and red as well. Your lower buds will be much tighter, your node structure will be much tighter, your stretch will be a little less, and your yield should slightly increase due to the lowers improving. I cannot tell a difference in trichome production with the naked eye, but I can damn sure say there certainly is no loss. This is my personal experience. No way scientific, but I can assure you I damn sure as a producer am not taking a loss for switching over. I wouldn't put up with that all. I feel my yields are increased around 10%. Coming up I will be able to definitively test this but it is 6 months out. I am working on some extremely high yield commercial varieties for breeding and will be testing clones under different sets of lights just to see what I pull on every 4x4.
