Harvest a Pound Every Three Weeks!

Do you have any recommendations as to how much to add for a 1lb of butter? Does 1oz seem in the right area? I've looked around at recipes and stuff and I've never ingested cannabis. From what I've looked at it looks like cooking with cannabis is a more expensive way of getting the THC into your body as opposed to smoking it. Would you agree with that? I really have no idea so I'm just looking for a little help.

Thanks,
DP

Its a totally different high... plus...the more you eat the more you get high... there is no ceiling to it.

Stink:

What's the best way to prepare trim for making bubble hash?

Was thinking of just freezing fresh trim until needed...? I was under the impression that too dry=bad... and was better to be a little wet?

Ok i'm gonna try asking this question again because it wasn't answered so please bear with me.

Mr Stink or any others here doing SB's system. have anyone tried doing an every other harvest or every other plant a single top cola for the purpose of allowing some plants to grow big and well the others getting the biggest single cola you can? Say i only have one 1000w light in an area that is 4x6 with 3 single systems running doing every other plant single top cola what kind of yield would i expect every 3 weeks. I ask because i have not been able to find an answer as to how much less i would get from doing the single colas as a grow vs whole plant?

Anybody???

LR, if you've spent anytime reading these threads, you'll find that many variables come into play when growing this wonderful plant, more than just lights and the system, you have genetics, nutrients, environment, plant husbandry skills, and the list goes on.

Any "guess-timate" you'd receive, would be just that, a guess. They only way to truly know what your yield would be is to pick a strain, pick a system, pick some nutes, and run with it. Once you harvest you would then have your answer.

Peace!

Thanks, StinkBud for taking the time to look at my layout and give me your input - I have revised my plan based on your feedback.
6"-12" is the sweet spot to take the plants into flowering.
OK - I got ya - I've increased the number of sites... I've decided on a total of 18, 6 per 4' post - 8" on center with spray heads set 3" as advised. I already have the EcoPlus 633 - so I will try that before moving up to anything biggger (I have some Eco396's too - I may just try one for shits and grins).

Your design will work great! I love seeing people modify my design to fit their needs. Happy growing bro!
Thanks for the help and inspiration, Stink - you are THE man!

got the pump relay/contactor plans about done
and built another one to use with an existing timer.
will post pics soon
Nice work, AndyMan.

Yo Dirt -(from what I understand) it has to do with the initial draw the pumps take upon start up - can be as high as 8 amps each... while they operate at less than 1 amp. I think this is the general issue... understandably - if you are maxing a 10 or 15 amp circuit with 3 or more pumps there may be issues in the form of pump failure - or worse - fire? I think I have this issue correct... I currently use 1 pump in my flower room - so I have zero hands-on experience with this issue -but as I look to running multiple pumps I want to have my bases covered... wife hates it when I burn the house down - I hate when I don't have medicine to burn the house down!

Yo Bra - if you are referring to the "Sentinel DRT-1" - just search for it... I paid less than $125 out the door at my local shop (he had a stack of 'em). Yeah - Sentinel is cool - they make all sorts of contollers designed for hydro usage.

black cord plugs into the timer and doesnt draw much power off the timer. green cord gets plugged into your 120 wall outlet or supply cord. then the power strip is were you plug the pumps in. I used a 30amp contactor. It was higher rated then the relays were I work. I also put an inline fuse between the timer cord and contactor, just in case.

I made this mostly so I wouldnt have to buy so many timers and to protect them since they are not cheep. It cost a little to make but cheaper than buying a crap load of timers. :bigjoint:
