Lets give it another try.

[MtnStew]

Hello MP community. MtnStew here. I have been here before but life and a former business partner both seemed to **** me at the same time. After my 10 year hiatus, I'm back with a new growing partner, new name, a SkunkOG clone, some seedlings and a brand new $200 Attitude order.

All of my old crosses were stolen, I was never paid for any of my work, and lots of good people lost money in a bait and switch situation. I hope to paint a better image for myself this time around, and not let others use me to make a quick buck. Avoiding-Drama is my middle name. Mtn Avoiding-Drama Stew.
I plan to do some breeding again in 2025, but for now I'm just looking to get back into the hobby. Still have to get a tent at a second location for seed propagation.

Hope to make some new friends while I'm on here. I'll start a grow journal/general discussion thread when I have something worth posting. Waiting for the room to fill up. It's very bare in there at the moment. We don't even have the 8x4 floor trays back in yet.

Four 4'x8' sections and two 4'x4' sections in this room. Currently 7x 600w LED 4'x4' but more soon. We're adding an 8'x4' tent in the other room for the 64 site cloner and the mothers when we are able to choose some. Keeping them out of the main room in case we go too big and have to flip early to make room for more.
3 Lemon Lime Sherbert(unknown MASSACHUSETTS strain) seedlings already sprouted. 2 Plushberry (MzJill) have had some trouble sprouting due to moisture or cold temps. 1 Honeycomb(Dewey Cannabis, Original Glue x Dosidos) also hasn't sprouted... yet.
We added 1 of each of the following seeds to germination.
Pineapple Express(G13), Picante(G13), Dreamberry(AutoSeeds), Ultra Lemon Haze(AutoSeeds), and a French Macaroon(T.H.Seeds).
There was a second clone of BabySitter S1 but the thing ended up being a male. So we got ripped off right from the start of this grow. Seriously, who sells male clones without saying hey it's male you sure you want to spend $50 on garbage?

Alright my background, intro, and plans✔
Post completed.
See ya'll around.

Welcome! Any friend of Giggy's is a friend of ours.

 

[Flower]

Nice first post. Welcome to the Passion.

 

[giggy]

Welcome to the passion bro, it's good to see you around again. Look forward to your progress. Oh we have a fella that goes by the handle of @Carty that is a master of autos. Check out his threads.

I Know Nothing - Basically dumb luck -- One of the best things I did in life / and did it way way too late was go partner free... (Known my guy and been smoking weed with him since the 5th grade and 60 years is not too far around the corner for both of us.) - Foghat opening up for Triumph stuff. We still friends. Growing as big as your's is looking is a lot, especially when you want to try and go somewhere for a couple weeks with the Mrs's or the family - But ya... my 2 cents to add to my loose change collection worth nothing. Peace and cant wait to see your Killer Buds..

Your 2 cents is worth more than you think.

I wish I had the ability to grow solo but unfortunately I have no room or funds to rent space for a grow. My buddy had a partner before me who was simply there to collect finished product while offering little to no time in the room. The guy tried to run things his way even though the time and space was coming from my buddy. He decided to part ways with that situation and I helped harvest the whole room.
I showed him my old thread on Rollitup and what I was doing before I had to end everything and he asked me if I could partner with him for at least 1 grow and I agreed.
I'm supplying beans, knowledge, nutes, and time. The space is his and under constant monitoring. Cameras. Trolmaster (which does most of the monitoring and controls the lights, ppfd, RH, Temp, CO² etc.
My last grow was 120 plants(mostly clones or vegging teens).I'm kinda all about go big or go home.
I get 50% of all finished product in the main room to do what I want with. 100% of 1 of the 4'x4' sections I plan for a 20 gallon supercropped pineapple express. Payment for my grow related purchases that are not nutes and seeds(plugs, pots, anything required that is not already there). 100% of any seed propagation that I may get back into next year. 50% of any profits made from clones and teens(these are how the electricity is going to get paid ).
I completely understand where you are coming from though.
On the plus side... If I decide to take a summer trip with the wife and kids I have him there to cover and same goes for if he needs to go out of town, I got the plants and his dog Bella(her big furry ass will probably make an appearance eventually).
If I only have the ability to do 1 grow with him, I'd rather use everything I bought than leave any seeds behind for him to use with someone else. Nothing against him at all, I just value my money even if it's in the form of some little seeds in a little baggie.
We aren't concerned about the overall size of the grow. We have the room for 4x-6x 10 gallon pots per 4'x8' tray(5-6 of them currently not being used yet). If we use 7 gallon(SkunkOG's current home) we can fit up to 10x plants per tray comfortably(his last grow was 38x plants all in 7 gallon). That brings us to a maximum 20x-30x plants in 10 gallon or 50x plants in 7 gallon.
There's 7 hanging 600w PHLIZON Full-spectrum grow lights Daisy chained together and running through trolmaster. There's another 3, not hanging up, for the other side of the room behind the open door in the last photo.
4 of the plants in this run will be autos and be out before we even get to flower. 2 currently being germinated, the other 2 dreamberry will be popped next week to stagger them a little bit.
He has a lot to learn about crop maintenance, plant training, increasing yield potential... and I have a lot of personal experience with all of those. At the very least I'll get him from novice to master grower in the next 12 months. That alone should be worth a year of free weed.

I want to thank you all for taking the time to read through my long posts(always trying to make sure not to leave anything out, full transparency). You'll all learn I'm not just a talker. I can back up my stuff with proof as long as I'm given the time to do so.
I know the whole game has changed. So I'm going to have to learn a few things in the process while teaching a few others from the past.. I will never talk down to advice of any kind. Most people speak from personal experiences and I can respect that as long as there is fact behind it and I can see the proof.

I will attach some 10 year old tent/bud porn for your viewing pleasure.

Will do bro. Always down to learn new stuff.
It's going to be a fun journey that's for sure.

Welcome stew. Pulling a

 

[WeedHopper]

Welcome back brother.
What handle was you using before MtnStew?

 

[MtnStew]

On RIU I'm known as Sxistew, first grow journal turned into a 100 page family sytle thread.
I was a guest here previous to this account creation but at the time there were some issues back then that I just had to keep my distance from. There was an account that I was associated with that has done some awful things to people. DnSGenetics and DnSGenetics1 were the 2 accounts originally created on here by my former business partner.
I want to be 100% clear...
I was not involved in the theft of anyone's money, I did not personally ship any seeds to anyone on here but after hearing tales of troubles I figured out it was a bait and switch situation for a money grab. He was taking genetics I made, using my photos, and shipping people anything from bag weed seeds to 10 year old seeds that wrre improperly stored. Herms and significantly low germ rates resulted by the end. I was a victims of his as well. I lost 1000's of seeds, all my production time down the drain. Pheno hunts wasted, strains of my F1s F2s BX1s BX2s S1s S2s all gone, had to chop the whole grow down due to personal issues with my relationship. And never started up again due to threats of law enforcement by my former partner who had my location.

Since then legalization hit making it very easy to start up again. But I still waited another 5 years before being asked to assist in a neighbors grow. Let him use all my old lights, tent, pots, fans, etc. And taught him how to grow. He gave up after 1 plant

Now a close friend I've known since elementary school asked me for some knowledge and assistance in exchange for both finished product and the ability to grow again. So here I am. With all my past learning experiences and current flaws. Not here to sell anything. Just here to learn, teach, and clear my name.

Update: Feel free to delete those 2 accounts if you are able. I have no access and no reason to keep that name alive

Think I might make a new one with the name I've gone by for the last 8 years. But I greatly appreciate the effort that went into getting that pic.
I really miss that pheno of blue dream. I'll get a 10 pack or two of HSO to find her again. She smelled like fresh cooked blueberry muffins and tasted like a blueberry donut. Supercropping gave her over a dozen rock hard colas.
It was my masterpiece plant aside from any strain I created from her clones. One day I will be back to that point. After the first successful grow is over I'll see if we are in the right place to make something new.

That's the other guy. Dank and Stew (DnS)
I lost so much money and genetics to that dude.

 

[WeedHopper]

Oh,,I thought you said that was one of the two old accounts you had. My bad. I reread your post.
So what was your handle on here when they were here?

 

[MtnStew]

Oh,,I thought you said that was one of the two old accounts you had. My bad. I reread your post.

Yeah, there were 2 accounts created under the DnSGenetics name. One was supposed to be mine but I had stuff going on in my life and I wasn't using it. Dank took over both accounts. I believe he was locked out of the main account somehow and started using DnSGenetics1 as a backup to continue to try to screw more people. When I posted here it was as a guest and I was treated hostility by some very old community members from the past. I've been informed that most of the riff raff is gone now and it's become a chill place. Rollitup is NOT as active as I thought. I'm going to move my whole grow journal over here today and drop the old forums.

I just hope to be a good contributing member of this community. When seeds eventually come from something I do, they're free to anyone in this community who wants them. Half the pictures above are my crosses. You'll always see the difference between my pics and Dank. He used old school purple led lights. I used MH and HPS. Now I'm full spectrum led.

Dank as in Darkster420 is a piece of $hit, that I hope to never see again.
