Legit for sure collective. I like your style. Any reason you didn't decide to go hydro? I always thought hydro would be easier in a really large scale.
Anywho, I thought of a name for your dank purple monster plants.."Barney". Great,now I'm going to have that damn I love you, you love me song in my head.

epic grow plants look lush and healthy. I am very envious of your large scale grow. you are like living my dream haha i guess i will have to deal with my 1000 watt grow. I was wondering are you on the script where you have to renew every six months or is yours annually? mad props on the grow keep up the hard work it musta be insanely time consuming with everything.

Holy shit...wish I had it last night. We were broke into. Nothing stolen, though. Bastards pried open a door, opened the door to the room, opened the door to bloom room, and then left. Guess we're lucky we're not to far along. Mostly pissed that they left the flower room door open. Lots of light.
Spent the day helping my welder and Helper D fabricate and install a jail house style cage inside door. Couldn't crash a car through it now. Security guy is coming tomorrow to install cameras, motion detectors, video recording loop, link to internet, text message alarm to me and Helper D in case of intrusion. We are armed, pissed off, and extremely dangerous.

Thank you much. I can now tell Helper D that people are in line for his job. He got pissed at me cause I asked him not to burn all day long while we work. I told him he could burn...just maybe wait till noon and keep it to a few puffs. Anyways, he seems over it.

Hydro would be easier. With plants this large on a perpetual, it's necessary to be able to move them around. The only hydro system that would fit the bill would be individual DWC buckets. I decided to start with soiless, and slowly work in a few DWC buckets to see how well they do next to 10 gallon soiless. It's so important that nothing goes wrong with these first few crops that I wanted to go with what I know works well and is forgiving. If the DWC buckets do well, we may slowly switch.
I like Barney for the Purple. One patient calls it Purple Death. It's totally couch lock dope.

Thank you for noticing the healthy plants. You're the first to mention it! It goes to show that simple still works the best. You can check out our nutes...totally simple and CHEAP. We have been feeding around 1000ppm and a PH of between 5.5 and 6 in the veg room. The bloom room is getting 1000ppm and PH of 5.8 to 6.2. We will ramp up the ppm in the bllom room as buds start forming. We water every day...sometimes twice/day. I also flush with 6.5 PH 40ppm RO water every Sunday..."though shall not feed on the seventh day of the week". The flush quantity is twice the amount of water it takes to get runoff. In other words, if it takes 35 seconds of watering to achieve runnoff, we flush for 70 seconds.
My rec. is renewed every year. I'm hoping that as we sign up new members I won't need to fall back on such a heavy rec to justify the plant numbers. We want 20-30 members total. The problem is finding trustworthy good people to join our collective. We also require that you need at least one ounce per week. It's a great way to operate. We will grow whatever strain our members want. I am even willing to grow organic plants for patients that really have a preference. Once we get the right amount of members, the price will be very reasonable: probably around $220.00/ounce.
Keep that 1000 watt cooking. Perfect your growing techniques. One day you may get the offer that I got: to manage a real growing operation without puting out a dime. You'd be amazed at how many rich people out there want to put the money to work in this industry. We are paying 8% on the line of credit we were given to do this. Where else can a wealthy person get 8%? Since starting this, I have been given 2 more offers from people wanting to throw money at me. These guys are out there. One day I just casually asked this guy if he would be interested in puting some money in a medical marijuana grow op...he didn't even hesitate. I believe that any grower with some real talent, and the ability to put together a business model, can do this. Good luck to you.

Thank you. I'm sure you can figure out a way to grow this many plants. OR, see how big of plants you can grow. I believe that with plants numbers being such an issue, growing huge plants indoors is the next new thing. SOG and SCROG is dying in the medical ops.

I don't remeber the name brand of my meter. It's a digital and waterproof ppm meter. I'll get you the make tomorrow.
