TGR hooked it up a while ago with some of those! : ) if thats what it is😂 it could be some of Capt’s gear also! i was pretty strict about keeping tags in those pots though. cant forget half of them could be mislabeled due to the cats knocking them over and my little helping me get them all back in their cups as seeds from the get go!😂

Granted rates very, especially out west, but I’d have to make some major changes in my system with rates like that. 3,000 watts and I’d be divorced, again 😁

Yeah we have shitty rates for sure! Was talking to upper management about it yesterday. We’re on the double rate, if we go above a certain usage of kWh we get bumped up into the .50 cents a kWh bracket. It’s a sham. It’s one of the reasons I want out of California. The coast of everything is just greed and theft!

It coast me about 200$ a month to run lights and the heater and fans🤯 still cheaper than going to the store to buy ounces of weed or other thc products. but man it really does not impress my wife lol! I told her i was going to lower the temps and lights a bit and try to get it down a hair. hopefully the plants dont suffer too much : )

divorced!? who the hell is going to grow her table flowers for her then?!🤣✌️

Isn't there some local solar program, geeze. I'd try to find a lego-like modular system.

Dude even thats a F’d up game around here! People have horror stories about getting locked in with solar companies and shit. And then that tied into the power company it gets even more weird! I may look into a small setup! Something to offset the coast a little, i know it’s pipe dreamy at the rates im consuming for lights but it would be fun to try! : ) you gotta go full on off grid, and thats not happing at this spot. Some day though somewhere else : )

I’m about $200 / month here on utilities, another $75-$100 on nutes and consumables but still far cheaper than other options

for sure JJ! : ) its just that hard to swallow pill when the plants aren’t really flowered out yet and i have a room full of littles vegging hahaha! It’s all good. Just straps things up a bit : )

Oh the other options are looking like divorce!🤣 she doesnt mind if i get a little pen or something for day trips if were doing a bunch of stuff down there (i will get those cheep pens just to puff on for town trips every now and again) but i refuse to buy flower and im VERY picky with edibles if i ever go that route (there are some nice ones out there) just stupid expensive, and the taxes!? forget about it!😤

I was thinking a panel by panel home installed kit. Something where you add one by one. I'm half solar but it's not like a hous hold system. The inverter thingy just runs some rooms.

How big are your panels? Do you have batteries? I looked into the Tesla packs and those are very expensive. I knew of a fellow who made an entire off grid setup with used car batteries! Pallets of them lol!

My friend installs solar panels in California. He was showing me pictures and told me the cost. It would take like 40 years before I would have saved anything on electricity costs would 40 years before the $300 payments end and that included the federal credit that is discontinued . It made 0 financial sense. My highest bill is about $300 a month in the summer.

Exactly this! 😤 we have some friends who were able to do a solar setup with a lot less of the bullshit but yes its still so wonky its just not worth it if you cant do it certain ways, and even then like you say its just ridiculous finically! I’ve got some real choice words and expletives for all those MFers but I’ll save that for the political forums I freaqent!😆 (totally kidding about the political forums)🤣

im not opposed to the desert life! i just need to go indoors before the sun comes up and fries my ass!🤣
