Just gonna have to get way pickier on the seedling I have going. Runts are getting chopped. Got no time to be playing babysitter.
Worst case scenario I'll buy another tent and find a new gf when this one loses it and moves lmao

That's the beauty of free/diy seeds, you have so many there's no room for plants that get defs or aren't as vibrant as you'd like. Get some crappy phenos, run another pack or two looking for 1 nice plant!
That tent conversation came up with the GF, once, when I took over the laundry room unused space for extra veg space. Needless to say I won that battle. There are 2 things that there's no negotiating on for me, grow and music equipment. Anything else can be discussed

Oh, I think I can come up with a couple more!That's the beauty of free/diy seeds, you have so many there's no room for plants that get defs or aren't as vibrant as you'd like. Get some crappy phenos, run another pack or two looking for 1 nice plant!

Lol, probably... As I said, other items can be discussed, it may not go her way, but a discussion can be hadOh, I think I can come up with a couple more!

Lol I'm not often as open to discussing things. Usually I explain why I'm doing something followed by why she should think it's a good idea.Lol, probably... As I said, other items can be discussed, it may not go her way, but a discussion can be had
All disagreements end with me explaining how to use google maps if she wants to leave.
The veg tent seems to have turned the corner a bit

Had a long deep argument/discussion with a former friend partner that's still really big in the commercial cash crop biz.
Apparently he's been traveling all over the world consulting on larger ops and making a tidy lil sum while doing it.
He says if I can manage to hit my goal he'll not only finance my book deal but also lend me the cash to put down on my dream barn.
Nothing like the shit talking of others to get you motivated and into I told u so mode.
540grams would put me at 3G per watt but I'm going to push it and aim for 600.
Thinking 6 plants 100g dry off each should be entirely do able.
Definitely won't be happening with the current ragamuffin assortment I've got going right now but hopefully 8-10 of the plants in veg take off and show themselves capable of surpassing expectations
Stay high aim higher

LOL, you keep going at that rate and you will need to open a quinoa processing facility for all those seeds.

Lol not likely
I'm to lazy to open any type of business.
Besides it would get in the way of being able to complain about being poor.
I'm sure they will eventually be put to good use

More cowbell
Posting pics is taking forever so I'll post some more when I get home.
All these outdoor plants are just now starting to flower will be real close that they finish before it gets to cold.
So far tho I'm super impressed with the soil up here naturally and can't wait to see what a greenhouse up here could do.

Well I'm the type that likes to plan way ahead and I need to seek out some advice.
I'm by no means an electrical engineering expert so I'm not sure how to do this.
Firstly I'd like to use one driver to power 3 lights.
So assuming I build 3 exact lights and I'd like to have them switch 8/8/8.
Secondly I'd love to try a shortened overall day. So 8/12 or maybe even 7/11.
Shortened day would fluctuate between peak hours but is there a timer out that can do this?
Thinking perhaps an overall shorter day could chop another couple days.
If I can get the cabinet yielding one lb every 45 days I'd be more than happy.
