What did you accomplish today?

......snip.... Here in California where PG&E not only rapes us for power, they also start fires that burn down your whole entire community

I used to say it’s the price to live in paradise. I dunno what to say anymore.

With impunity and immunity

It’s the “might be worth it” that is scary. Now if I had already experimented with led’s (surprised I haven’t) I would know and would feel confident in installing them.

it’s not quite that large of a difference though, with DE’s(the way I grow) unless dudes are yielding 3lbs/600w of led. I consistently yielded 3lb’s under each 1000W dE, whereas 2lb’s was considered killing it with old single ended hid lamps. I’m sure newer led’s woop the shit out of single endeds like that, but not quite as extreme of a difference compared to DE’S but still are more efficient.

I’m hoping to get on an agricultural power rate this next property as it is zoned ag. Huge difference in power costs. Almost half. Here in California where PG&E not only rapes us for power, they also start fires that burn down your whole entire community

I don't even know why I use led. Electric is cheap here.

I've been thinking about a buried shipping container grow with nothing but led powered by solar and wind.

I get using de. It produces so much the cost really isn't a concern. De efficiency isn't that bad.

Do what you know. To each thier thier own.

I've always wondered how you guys deal with the really heavy, wet shit? That seems like it could get dangerous fast.

Just gotta take your time and have your wits about you.

Set up a micro grow for a friend using some of my old equipment.
It is just a 400W, so we are limited in what we can do I guess.
He doesn't get to complain as I paid for everything.
I'm even paying the power bill.

And you take lots of breaks. Bring something to burn or vape and have the garage all warmed up.
And it was so nice yesterday.

Lost them last July. I'll look behind the dryer.

Little trick we learned to keep the stock tanks from freezing. Jugs half filled with salt water. The cows move them around so the water can't freeze over. Much cheaper/better than running 3000w heaters 24/7.

Morning everyone.....55F and raining here the high is gonna be much higher

coffee is ready

Also got the tin off one 12 foot section of pole barn roof. I need to salvage enough of it to put a roof on the one shed in the best shape.

I'm just a touch anti-social, and while I was working out by the road, three people stopped to talk to me. I told the wife I was going to drag it all down to the garden to get some privacy.

I've got two of those battery drills in 18 volt.

Hard not to. People either love plowing or absolutely despise it. No real middle ground. Now shoveling snow is a different story.


Changed out a solenoid that was getting red hot. Wasntt the problem. Bad ground. Now I've gotta find where through a cluster fuck of wires. Yay.

Over here people will just be plowing the shit in front of their neighbour's house
