Grow diary mission impossible (low to medium budget lol)

Oh you guys mean full load systems, I just have auxiliary and the battery bank needs replacement which is why it's direct in. You'd need 6 for a house but I think it's possible.

The only reason I’m thinking full load is because the power draw and usage for the shed. I’ve been reading the internet this morning and it’s not looking promising lol! Like maybe i could throw a little something together to run the fans for a few hours!💀🤣😂
 
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!🤣
I had these Mormon neighbors, weird group of people. They had illegally installed a set up in the backyard. You could see it clearly from my patio. When they moved out they were trying to sneak this giant panel out in the dark. They were all shh shh and stopped moving it when I happened upon them 😂 . Fools think no one was aware of giant ass panels in the yard and like really am I the city code police on the panels you just removed? 🤣

Was probably for their weed outfit!🤣 but yeah people can be beyond oblivious to life around them! : )

Nahhh these people were like no soda mormons. Super nerdy, the kid who owned the house was kind of friendly and the guys dad lived with him who was extremely antisocial. It was hilarious with them trying to sneak it out like bandits in the night. 🤣

My friend called it off grid but California doesn’t even allow that as far as I know and the power company pays him for the power it produces that goes back into the grid. There was nothing off grid about it.

Yeah im not sure how that works. If i had solar and a pack id cut the fucking line to pole and tell them to come get it off my property! Fuck those asshole! The higher ups need to go away (politely put without getting placed on list😆 im sure im on one already🤣).
 
💥BAM! 🚀🤣 😬

Oh most people do a give take contract and sometimes profit by pennies in CNY.

Personally I think are a fire hazard after watching a house burn up with those things twice in one night.

If I were to install any of them I would want it go to batteries not back to the grid and I would want the panels and the batteries away from any dwelling like the mormons next door did. As far away from the house as possible/

i never even thought about that! 😳 i think like any electrical it needs to be really well pieced together with quality parts and understanding of the system. i mean we can burn our house down with just a plugged in lamp if things are loose and all.

but still! how am I supposed to know what the company is doing or what their using for parts. id only consider it if I actually knew the person installing it! : )
 
Give Take contracts so far have worked out for the people I know who have them, they use battery for storms but I can't really until I get a new bank of them. Solar on demand does still work during storms though I can use like I said about a fridge or some small devices, a bedroom.
Anything bigger is yuppers expensive.

They have to itemize in the contract at least here, it is part of the permit. But that's a couple bucks and a run to town hall for a paper form.

Yeah i think if i were to actually do it id make sure good and well they weren’t like a used car salesman type of outfit lol! But still, horror stories about them fuckers lying and switching parts and all. In the last 5 years I’ve only trusted a hand full of people for anything! I’ve become broken beyond repair lol! Hes out to get me! You’re out to get me! THEY ARE OUT TO GET ME! 🤣 (i just wanted a Pepsi) 😆✌️
 
Didn’t die over night 😆 both lights are down to just clicked on🙄 🤣 the lower dli is the 400w and the other is the 1000. I’m going to get a couple of the plants on crates as they’re too far away for my liking.

You’re just a little ahead of my lemon tree. Spent a few minutes this morning stripping the lowers on her. Wondering since you’ve gotten theses beauties to the end of stretch if you had any plans on training the 2nd half of your grow?

Is the second half of the grow on the plants you are referring to or the plants that are still stretching? or we talking veg room? : )

I started taking some lowers of the further along plants in flower. I should probably do a little bending of them huh? : )

For me the 2nd half starts when stretch is slowing down. Final tweaks to get those buds exposed now that you’ve gotten them with multiple heads, great work back a few weeks!
The down side of all that early training is there are branches that will never see direct light all the while pulling energy from the plant. Now if they are removed all the energy is focused up top and you’ll be able to fit a couple more in. Big bonus is it allows you to treat any issues the plant might have down the road
Something to ponder when your burnt!😁

Another practice that was widely popular back a few years ago was supercropping. It was a fade like defoliation 🤬 but it did have its merits. Just another tool for the toolbox bro
