Misterdirt 11,962 Report post Posted December 6, 2019 In Colorado, reefer is pretty cheap from dispensaries in comparison to MI. I expect the prices to go down, but not very quickly. A HUGE number of towns and other political entities have opted out of allowing Cannabis sales — something like 80%. Detroit included, though they'll probably start allowing it next year, sometime after January 31. Most people have to travel to Ann Arbor for legal weed, at this time. This will keep prices up. What you would think would bring prices down has not — every household in the state can have 12 plants growing at any time. A med card gets you 12 more, unless you live alone. Even though people can grow it, they don't. 2 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Was thinking of you with the LEDs, the yields ended up suffering, I think I know why, it was not hot enough!~ lol remember you saying the LEDs need higher temps, sure enough, so ended up putting a 600 watt back in there to bring the temp up to the 80s. 2 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

You also seem like you know a bit about it because you don’t correct after the fact. however, I suggest that if you are physically able (you use a cane, not sure you can get down there okay) a swift slap to the top of the nose with your own hand is likely more effecting, because it’s a part of your body as the alpha db for some dog that is appropriate or on their rump. my dog is big and fast and she doesn't want you to hit her and will demonstrate that. not a good idea for me to go to her business end lol. the bitch is lighting fast. Only reason she didn't try to eat me is because I'M HER DAD/ALPHA .were someone else to try to do so they are going to the hospital if they live. I've only physically corrected her before twice and the last time was with my hand on her rump. trust me i know how to give them a proper attitude adjustment. keep in mind she wasn't hit hard enough to hurt her. that's not the point of a physical correction as you know. she's a superlative dog except she won't let me cut her nails and she can't be trusted off leash in public. she thinks she can run off and play until she's done. smdh Yes, i have been working on it and 2020 will see more extensive work. will take out the long training lead. trick the bitch so she can like the flirt pole better by using a more irresistible lure. burn off her xtra energy while requiring her to be obedient if she wants to play too. she has been getting the treatment with guests where she gets no attention or petted until she's calm ans sits down. ... thx for your concern and practicality as well. so few folks truly know how to deal with dogs properly. they call me the dog man/dog man in my old neighborhoods. They would always see me walking my bulldog = A.P.B.T. peace and namaste 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I've always seem to have dogs with an extreme level of intelligence and as mos dog folks know there are cons to their high level of intelligence. especially if you have a breed that's not that tractable. these dogs ask you why you want them to keep doing x,y,z . what do you mean i shouldn't figure a way around your limitations etc etc. the escape artist on youtube are such dogs and watching them is hilarious as well as educational imho.

Not without running a heater...good job adding the 600w, much better to add light for the heat...heaters are more expensive and don’t feed the plants. 4 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

DesertGrown 3,093 Report post Posted December 8, 2019 Alright guys... I just noticed a few PM's about Greyskull's recent activity and am happy to let you all know that you won't be seeing him around here anymore. He had been warned by a few mods for his spamming this site with his nonsense, but did not heed our warnings and I felt that he wasn't going to stop, so he has been banned from OpenGrow. Those of you that know me know that I don't just ban problem members, communication is key, but when you blatantly go against our forum rules and/or disregard our warnings, action must be taken. I've been a member of OpenGrow for a long time and I like it here, I like the members here and I will work keep this place "asshole" free... even if it kills me! I'd like to thank the OpenGrow neighborhood watch for their continued support... your actions help us Mods more than you may realize. We don't see everything all the time and your efforts are very appreciated! I wish you all an enjoyable Sunday! 3 2 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Ok, I'm about to admit again to buying beans smdh. urkle x strawberry cough = 6 beans ; wedding cake fems = 3 ; last = 1 pack of pebble pusher fruity pebbles og x stardawg a remake of greenpoint seeds. i don't fuck with green point so opportunity knocked and i answered. hope to get a nice male and mom to make more urkle cough beans. If the flavor and stone are legit it will be a hit in my area and i'll only release it on a ltd bud basis. no need to mention wedding cake much. any male candidate will get to do the nasty with the wedding cake. never know what treasure might appear. an elite might be in the making ijs. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

With a lack of infrared spectrum the temps need to be increased at the leaf surface for optimum growth. with LEDs lacking that spectrum. I’ve run them both hot and not(70-80+) and still pulled over a gram per watt. The optimum temps(80+) absolutely yielded more though. 2 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Shoeless 4,338 Report post Posted December 11, 2019 Hey now. My grow is in a balcony in our bedroom, exhaust running 24/7. We have dual air handlers, one upstairs and one down, so I keep our room set at 70 year round. In the summer the tent can get into the upper 80s. In the winter I turn down the vetilation to raise the temp, otherwise it can get rather cool. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Sacred Plant Warrior 2,468 Report post Posted December 11, 2019 i upped the thermostat by like 2 deg's to keep the house approx 72 and let the pigs do better under flo shop light and 3 small led's and closed the window too. it cut off fresh air but i turn a ceiling fan on occasionally just for circulation. i'm sure they are more comfy now and it feels a bit warmer so... winter run should be easy but in summer i'll have to check basement temps to see if i can work an auto in the basement maybe. cause inside normally gets 85 deg's. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
gardenartus 13,816 Report post Posted December 11, 2019 In the summer that room went to over 100! lol I had to do something, but this was a bit too much. I really hope I see better yield with higher temp, if I don't, something is wrong again in there. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
gardenartus 13,816 Report post Posted December 11, 2019 These are pics of the wax and lipids you pull off when you winterize, most ends up in the bottom and I dump that. I strain through a 25 micron, and end up with this. Makes your oil so much better if you winterize, you pull all this unwanted gunk out, makes your oil more fluid and potent. 6 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
