[Luxury Tax]

how long were u trimming & bucking before u moved onto other duties?

What would convince u to stay?


What kind of light did u guys use?

10 lights per room?

How long did you guys veg b4 flowering?

What were the strains?

You have to think about the operating cost. You have to pay for seeds/clones ,soil, nutrients, water, electricity, gardening equipment, etc plus it's going to be some months between planting and having cured product for sale. Then factor in having to deal with the consequences of a cultivation charge in an illegal state.

A few years back I grew outdoor with guides from forums and ended up with 5 OZs dry from 2 plants but I'm sure professional grows yield Way more

Brudda was that you yeeears ago that gave me that guide? If not I need you to pm ya boi.

Do you have to feed the plants fertilizer for it to flower & how long does a plant take to flower . Can you turn a male plant into a female & can you identify a female seed by looking at it

Not how you would think. We put nutrients into the water.

About 2 months

No

And no

Hermaphrodites are such a fukking pain and can ruin a whole room. At that point everything gets stripped and sent to production.

A year

Maybe more money but I was just over it.

Spectrum king and another brand I forget, but they were metal halide

40 lights per room

Veg was 3-5 weeks

Strains kinda gives away my company and I don’t wanna any problems or claims to intellectual property in the future

Damn, all those smells you experienced. That shyt would haunt my dreams
Old grow i had this mixed strain from female seeds that would give off a tropical tangy sort of smell that was most pungent just before the lights came on. Can't imagine a room full of hundreds of plants, got dang!

Dr. Who was my favorite strain


The scent of that harvest room when Dr. Who was coming down


Fun fact. On harvest days, the smell permeates our clothes so heavy.


We walked into Walmart and dude said he could smell us halfway across the store.

It was fukkin ridiculous

"Jorge Cervantes- Marijuana Horticulture"

@GUWOPPERS how does the industry look from a management perspective? Do you see a lot of growth (don't ask me how) in the industry, and are they bringing in outsiders or is it inside baseball?

I can't understand why any smoker living in a legal state wouldn't have a little grow on the side. That shyt growing before your very eyes, come home and the leaves in the lights
Did my small shyt on the low with CFLs. Now Walmart don't even sell em. I wonder if folks have success with them cheap LED bulbs? Never even got out of the soil medium. Matterfact I might have to cop a 600w hps/mh rig just to keep on standby

Enough knowledge to know it’s not worth my time. I don’t smoke and the yield isn’t worth it

What about a grow tent in the crib?

You know just to grow a couple pounds for personal use

 

[WhiteDawg3000]

subs

 

[prince_peoples]

300 plants yielding only 100+ pounds?

Lol at only.

On a indoor grow you are not getting pounds per plant on a large scale grow

Op if u in Cali or orogen and able to get your hands on 25 plus packs dm me lol, il come pay cash up front

Growth is crazy. The only curve ball is gonna be federal legalization. Big business is gonna crush everybody IMO

Because It's a new industry a lot of outsiders, you just gotta know somebody.

 

[prince_peoples]

Numbers don’t seem right. Y’all making 4K per pound?

Only makes sense if they have there own dispensary they feeding.
