Just killin time now, waitin for little bit’a Amber in them trichs...won’t be long

 

[Rosebud]

YUM RE, nice It is 90 degrees here. that is a shock. hope the babies are fine. It probably got almost that hot in the bathroom. We are having the best lazy day, bud is on his second nap and i have had a nice one too. Old folks sitting in the air conditioning. Seems just a minute ago we had 32 straight days of 3 foot deep snow. Seasons.

 

[Keef]

Making plans for the big move !-In 2/3 weeks if all goes well -- Rose U gotta have AC down here - Last night it got down to a chilly 80 degrees !- Maybe 94 out there now ?- Be around 100 everyday soon !

 

[2RedEyes]

I have not turned the a/c on yet...we sittin on the porch cuz there’s a bit of breeze...I always enjoy this time of year when I don’t have to pay for cooling or heating...it doesn’t last very long...my wife calls me a tightwad...I’d rather spend my money on fun stuff, like guitars and such...

 

[umbra]

95 here. A/C is on. Going over 100 next week. Cut the grass in front yard, back yard is still a giant trench. Jumped in the pool, a tad cool but refreshing

 

[Rosebud]

91 here AC is on, but it is supposed to be cooler soon. The tiny babies look alive out there. Umbra, i bet that felt good that pool. I am with you RE, i love it when we can have all the doors and windows open. We are in the desert but the first 90 degree day is a little shocking. Stay cool you guys. I want ice cream.

 

[St_Nick]

Wish I had a pool. Sob.. 78 and booful here.

 

[Keef]

I don't think I turned my central heat on this winter -- Couple times I turned a stove burner on for awhile when it got chilly but that's about it !- Snow ?-- I don't do Snow !--
Nick U got a creek why U need a pool ?-- Water too cold ?

 

[novitius]

it got up to 85 according to my window thermometer earlier. it's cooling off. Definitely running the AC! The tent will get up to 90 without it. Added some little fans today though to help out too. I got the 2 1500w Led's in there. I think I may be pushing to much lol. Maybe I should shut one off.... I'm not worried about the bill, got it yesterday, it's gone up about $37 so far.
Do you guys think the 2 lights in a 2 x 4 is to much? I can keep it under 79. Maybe more now I added some more circulation....

 

[Keef]

Nov - One of those 1500 watt lights should be more than enough for a tent that size ?- U need another tent for that extra light now ?- That's how I do math anyway !

 

[2RedEyes]

I think we had a hi of 85 but only 81 right now...we also had a hi of Momma Mia and we still hi...
Just took a little tri-tip off the grill...y’all wanna come over?

 

[novitius]

Where's Toolman when you need him? I think ur right Keef, I need another tent. I might be able to swing it too. What would you guys do? There's so many options. I would like a 5x5 but that means new fan/filter/circulation too.I been thinking on adding CO2 as well. Also, I think I really need to get a RO system installed. My water is horrible. I wanted to ask for recommendations on that from you guys on a few good filters. I think my holy grail is having ph issues possibly due to chlorinated water? Trying for an organic grow....
Edit- When is too much light too much? Should I already be using CO2?

 

[Keef]

Nov --U getting in over your head !-- We all do it!- Upgrade the grow !-- I don't think U need CO2 yet -- RO system ? - That I know about -- My RO system cost about $125 - I installed it under the bathroom sink and run a hose to one the big 35 gallon boxes and used it as a RO storage tank-- Makes about a gallon every 15 minutes -- Easy install !- Tap a water line - It goes thru the filters and comes out almost distilled --Using RO water is probably the only time a grower needs Cal/Mag add about 3-5 mils of Cal/Mag per gallon of RO water !-- The lights ?-- The way I figure it is 1,000-1,500 listed watts per square yard of grow space-- 3 feet - x- 3 feet --That's 9 square feet- Might be some crude math but it'll put U in the ball park !-- - U want some added CO2 ?- I brew in the grow room !-- I can show U how to build a primary fermenter out a 5 gallon bucket ?-- Only thing brewing get under your skin just like growing !-- I need to get back to perfecting my Coconut wine - 5 lbs of Bakers sweetened coconut flakes- boil it then cool to separate the oil off - ( it goes well with cannacaps )-- cool --add the yeast- -hit it with some sugar when the fermenting slows down !- When it's ready I condense by freezing-- U have to talk to The Gloman if U want to distill - Umbra and RE make the beer !

 

[Keef]

RE give me a bite !-- I had another one of those illegal thoughts again !-- The OFC Wine/Weed and Spirits Smokehouse ?-- Live music !-- Weed craft and smoke shop ! Pick up a box of our edible treats on the way out ! -- All U can eat boiled shrimp on Fridays ?-- We could do this !- If it was legal ?

Yep, and the world would be a happier place

To heck with legal! Let's do it. I got kids'll work for free! I'm a retired line chef ya know!

RO system ? - That I know about -- My RO system cost about $125 - I installed it under the bathroom sink and run a hose to one the big 35 gallon boxes and used it as a RO storage tank-- Makes about a gallon every 15 minutes -- Easy install !- Tap a water line - It goes thru the filters and comes out almost distilled --Using RO water is probably the only time a grower needs Cal/Mag add about 3-5 mils of Cal/Mag per gallon of RO water !

which one was it, do ya remember? I see they come in gallons treated. Looks like less overall = better filtration?
I'm a lil; leery of brewing alcohol Keefster. i'm allergic to alcohol. I have a terrible reaction. I break out in Police. Everywhere. I might get stupid and thirsty at the same time?

I guess I'll shut down the extra lamp until I get a bigger tent. It felt like overkill a little but the little buds are everywhere and I'd like em to get to be mega huge buds of gnarly dankness. Dreamers can dream y'all.

 

[Rosebud]

Nov, We put whole house filters on our whole water system. Bud chages them 2x a year. So i dont use extra filters. If you can keep your tent at 79 i say that is perfect. And yes you can have too much light i turned one of mine off. Umbra, do you disagree w the light?
Keef sounds good.

 

[Keef]

I understand Nov !--I used to get whiskey bumps -- I bump into people's fist cause my mouth don't know when to shut up !-- When U start making RSO you'll need alcohol -- I've had to learn to be around it without drinking - I can even taste my wine at different stages but only to taste it - I have no desire to sit down and have a glass -- I make it - It's to others to drink it but I like it to taste good to them so I gotta taste it !
I'm not a line chef but I got my own BBQ rub - mop sauce and - BBQ sauce recipes and I'm not afraid to use them !- What I can do to a pork butt should be against the law !-- Brisket ?- spare ribs ?- No problem !--I can make a good gumbo too !- What ever kind U want !- - Jambalaya ?-- Seafood ?- -- Boil dahell out some crawfish shrimp and crabs !- I don't like picking little crabs for meat - I like them bigass Alaska crab legs - with some butter !-- and some coconut fried shrimp with Pina Colada tartar sauce --

 

[Keef]

Smells like decarb up in here !-- Go get me some coconut oil tomorrow and make some more medicine out that cooked trim --

 

[novitius]

Mmm mmm Keef. That all sounds good! I know Texas is famous for smoking and BBQ! Being a line chef don't really mean anything but I can keep the whole thing moving. Every body is hung over? I got it. Go home. I got recipes ingrained in muscle memory too.
I'm sleepy. A whole house system huh Rose? That sounds nice but pricey lol. I would like to see Umbra's opinion too. Rose, you're organic right? If my tap water didn't distill the chlorine all the way would that cause problems with ph?
