Its only a bummer cuz ur the same age as me, and you deff seem like you did a couple things right along the way. If i ever pull my thumb outta my ass and can see my way outta here id hit ya up, sounds like a great time to be had.
Hey Phillip I know you know this and I often forget myself, but if you don't feed the trolls they starve and find somewhere else to go. Anyway, I think it's awesome that you live in Costa. I used to live in Panama City, Panama down in El Dorado, almost exactly in front of the mall. I miss that life so much. Central America is best place I ever lived. I miss pulling ripe mangos off the trees and eating them til the juices were all over my hands and chin lol. We also had a lady who came to our house and cleaned most the day, is dirt cheap to get labor there. My parents left her some old furniture before coming back to the states, she cried and cried and made us feel like saints for our kindness. People appreciate things a lot different down there. Definitely miss the active lifestyle...and fishing! Fishing the Panama canal with my dad were some pretty good memories. Caught tons of peacock bass and oscars. Send me a ticket and I'll come vist
.
I love the simple lifestyle. I would be in heaven there. Would just need some land a house set with solar. I like growing and raising my own food. I'm thinking of packing everything up and going to Hawaii tho. Just need to get my credit fixed. And I know I'll have work. There is nobody there with my work certification level.
Wow man you got it made. im super envious. its nice to be in a beautiful place.
I just finished college and am thinking about traveling, central america has always interested me, I've only been as far as Mexico though.
We have one thing in common though![]()
Hey Warlock, thanks for stopping by. What is your certification in?
Living the simple life in Central America just gives you a different outlook on life. You really learn to put your rpiorities in check. You do give up certain things but most of them you learn to love without. It's definitely not for everyone but it works for me. Less government interferance and a slower pace of life.
Can't really give info of my work. There is only about 5500 people world wide at this level so it wouldn't be hard to find me.
I don't think I would have to give up much. I already got rid of most the comforts not needed. No cable if I want to watch it I buy the DVD. No home phone or Internet. No more flashy cars. And I'm kind of a hermit now I'd be fine. But I think I'd be singal. My old lady wouldn't go for it. Lol
Well man, if you are gonna be single then Central America is the place to do it!![]()
Im originally from New York and I moved to Costa Rica 6years ago to enjoy life. Im only 34 years old but it was time to get out ofthe rat race. After a while I realized it was so hard to get good qualitybuds down here. I starting doing some research andand began growing a little something for myself. I started off with 2 growtents; a 4 by 8 for my flowers and a 4 by 4 for my mothers and veg. After awhile all of my friends were begging me for the killer buds I was growing andit got to be that I didnt have enough to keep them satisfied. I found alsothat I LOVED growing. I was always online watching videos, reading articles,and talking to all of the manufacturers. So about a year ago I built the BOMBgrow spot.
Building:
· 1500 square foot solid concrete building with 10foot ceilings.
· Located on a private mountain farm I own that is8 acres.
· Has 6 separate rooms (Clean Entry Room,Workspace, Drying Room,
Mother Room, Veg Room, and Flower Room.
· All the rooms are completely sealed and separate
· Since the property is so big Im not too worriedabout a slight amount of odor so we have 12 axial intake and exhaust fans ontimers (shut off when the Co2 kicks in) in every plant room to provide freshair.
· All of our dehumidifiers have dedicated drainlines to a semi-buried 800 gallon reservoir which is used to cool the three Co2Generators with 3 Flotec 4/10hp Submersible Pumps
· Separate water faucets and floor drains in everyroom. All the water is filtered with Cuno APUV8 UV Filter System, Cuno AP801 Sediment Filter, and a Kinetico Water Softner. TRUE 0ppm water.
· The entire plumbing system is 3/4" PEX tubing with solid brass fittings. All water is boosted by a Grundfos OS Booster System with a Amtrol ST-12 Expansion Tank.
· 3 separate breaker panels for the building. Two100amp services that feed all the small loads and auxilary items. A 200 amp service which is stolen off the bus bar in the meter main/branch unit. Here in Costa Rica it can be very eaily done as the electric company does not have keys to the locks on your metering equipment nor do they have smart transformers or the software in the regional offices to monitor differences in neutral readings or in kilowatt hours used versus kilowatt hours billed. All building wiring is buried in the walls inconduit with nothing exposed.
· All critical loads are backed up by 2 Eaton Powerware 9170+ UPS Systems. The entire house is backed up by a 65kW John Deere Diesel Generator and Transfer Bypass Switch. The generator takes 3-5 minutes to warm up and then all of the loads on the UPS systems are transferred over.
· All light and inline fans are on adjustablehangers
· The entire building is cooled by a Trane XL20i Air Conditioner, Trane Hyperion Air Handler, Trane Clean Effects Air Purifier, and independent digital climate controls for all plant rooms and the workshop area. All ducting in in the ceiling except in the flower room where some exposed ducting has been brought down to blow directly on the plant tops.
Mother Room:
· 200 square feet
· 2 Lumatek 1000w Ballasts (SunMaster MH CoolDeluxe Bulbs & Big Daddy 8 Reflectors)
· 40 Pint Dehumidifier
· 2 CAN High Output Inline Fans (Exterior Venting)
· 2 Wall Fans
· HydroGen Pro Co2 Generator
Clone/Veg Room:
· 100 square feet
· 4ft/8 Lamp Grow Bright T5 (Agromax 6500kSpectrum Bulbs)
· 1 Lumatek 1000w Ballast (SunMaster MH Cool DeluxeBulb & Big Daddy 8 Reflector)
· 2 CAN High Output Inline Fans (Exterior Venting)
· 2 90w LED Blue Spectrum UFOs
· MiniGen Co2 Generator

Flower Room:

· 10 26w Zoo Med UVB Bulbs (Reflector Domes) (usedfor last 3 weeks of flowering)
· 6 CAN High Output Inline Fans (Exterior Venting for Horizontal Lighting)
· 6 CAN High Output Inline Fans (Exterior Venting for Vertical Lighting)
· Hydrogen Pro Co2 Generator

· Chill King 1/2hp Spot Chiller with Chill Coils in both plant resevoirs and the Co2 resevoir
· Floor to ceiling Mylar
· At any given time we are flowering 3-4 of these:Blueberry, Power Plant, Sour Diesel, Blue Cheese, Super Haze, The Ultimate, andWhite Widow.
Just thougt I'd share!
Look man.. I'm no hater, even if what you talk about IS real and you do it.. You're either very stupid, or very ignorant. But it's cool.
Hey! Lemme tell you why....
The government grows pot, and then turns around an says it's illegal. They grow it for themselves. And for other people, for that one day when they legalize it. What do you think they'll just legalize it and start growing? No, they are growing it. And what they do is they check up on people, dispensaries, websites, farmers, even people like you. All they have to do is track you're IP adress and they have you're money, you're houses, you're boats... You're family..
If they felt like it they'd look up that land that's in you're name and fuck you analy. Honestly, anyone that grows illegally, and talks about it (even online) is mental. Because you don't know whooooos watching >.> <.<
anyways, they check up on these things because they wanna know how there doing.. Finacialy, they wanna know how much people are willing to spend on dope, when all these loser out there wanting 215 bugin people talkin mess, just remember you're the ones who asked for an oz to purchase for 600+$ because the government will tax the shit out of it..
But hey, I talk about life, what's really goin on. Maybe I grow, maybe I don't. But I don't want it legal, that's for sure. And ill tell you this, the people that do grow a massive ton, and own those cars, boats, houses, whatever.. Those are the ones that don't last long..
But hey don't listen to me.. I may just be blown smoke here
Give peace a chance..

Dude you do relize you talking about USA right? He's in costa rica. Different rules and a very corrupt government. So it's not hard to bend laws there. And shit for that madder about 20 years ago I have my home town law and judges in my pocket. Till I said I wanted out then I was getting busted for everything. And that was in Cali.
fiction can be fun.
