looking for advice from experienced seattle gower for indoor.......

hey all,..am new here, and a beginner medical grower. i would like to find someone in the north seattle area, to help me with experienced advise me as needed. am just needing a little help, not someone to do everything for me.
i have some questions, and need to know specific things, heres a idea from a friend what is going on....

10k watts (full spectrum 1000 watters)
3 strains
a almost fully controlled indoor situation for medical grow(fluctuation in temps vary 10-15 degree's.
air inducted thru charcoal filters from outside
technaflora nutes(recipe for success)
hard water(this water is a problem so far)
no pics yet,....

would be nice to get help from someone very discrete even tho this is all papered and legal...
hope this thread is in the right place, and is acceptable....

this is my first ever posting ever concerning this subject, i am a little anxious to say anything bout this publicly so i hope this is safe here(but ya never know right?, lol)
anyway,..if there is someone local, with good experience with plants.diagnosing and growing indoors i would like to speak with ya.....

Wow bro... do like the rest of us do....grow and learn or you will pay for someones advice... like a 50% split of the crop is what I charge

I see alot of people thinking they can just start growing good weed from seed from any seedbank and try to sell it to the stores for top $$$...there is a learning curve...people need to pay their dues and take the time to learn your strains wants and needs:thumbsup:

ok,..good advice,..and i am going to do exactly that,..i am doing well so far,..i just thought to ask here for some advise concerning a few problems that i see starting,..since i have never seen them before,..it would have been nice to have someone give me a fewanswers,..i dont need any help other then that,..as i said, i will learn to do this right, for patients, and for myself.
there is just so much to learn so quickly at the first it has been a little overwhelming, but i got it,..so ty for ur response, u r right,..it takes time and if a person is gonna do it right, they need to tough it out, make the mistakes, learn to correct them, and move on.....i would delete this thread if i knew how,..lol..so ty all for at least stopping bye,..peace!
and,..also..i dont think anything other then im a rookie and dont know shit yet actually, aside from alot of reading, which,.all must do anyway,..so peace,..ty,..its all good!

Don't sweat it. Just ask questions and people here will give you a hand as much as possible.

10k worth of lights? Are you an electrician, or have an electrician come in and set up new breakers and check the gauge of your wires? Thats allllooooootttt of power to be pulling out of a house and if its not done right its very unsafe. Your also looking at roughly 500 dollars a month just run those bad boys in addition to all of the fans and other equipment your going to need.

Personally if i were you i wouldn't invest this much time and money for something that you dont even know how to do yet. Good way to be very disappointed and discouraged because your yield and quality are not what you expected. If you really plan on having garden with 10k worth of lights, in an indoor controlled environment, and god knows how many plants(which will probably exceed your wa state limit of 15), i hope you plan on being a full time pot farmer. Probably end up spending 5,000$ minimum for the initial setup and your looking at 8 hours of maintinence, repotting, watering, every day. Not counting that when you harvest your going to need a whole week off in order to trim.(and a good damn army of brothers, cousins and other people to help you)


Im not trying to be a dick by any means, im just saying that your talking about making a very risky and ambitious investment. Make sure your ready for the commitment. These plants do grow themselves, but they need your help to be dank.

and despite what other people tell you ITS NOT EASY lol. It takes time and patience in order to fully understand this plant. Part of learning how to grow good marijuana is making mistakes, because you make sure that it doesn't happen next time.

You could probably find someone on this site to help you, but your going to need to warm up to everyone get to know people a bit. I promise you one thing, if your trying to find someone to actually take the time to help you grow and help theyre gunna want a cut( personally i do 50% unless the person im helping is going to be very involved with the process. then ill drop my % down) Your basically trying to make money off of someone who knows how to grow pot lol People dont like being "pimped" unless theyre being compensated for it. I have never had an easy split up of the harvest, people get greedy and always don't wanna give it up.

alright,..good answers,..and i respect all of them.
u guys so far seem to be very open and honest,..ty...as far as me investing anything,..i havnt put i dime toward anything,..i walked(was asked )into this. and i do agree with the comment bout how much work and dedication this setup will require.
believe me when i say,..i now know how much time and effort this size setup requires,..i live , breathe and eat this every day and night,..and the amount of time and effort i am putting into this is alot more then i originally thought it would take.
i average bout 4 hours a day reading and studying bout growing techniques, soil mixes, plant biology,watering, meters, ro water,c02,and on and on....then i go to work applying my new knowledge..all day,..every day!( and night sometimes, whew!)
as far as electrical,...i did not set this place up,..and i can say that the person who did, did a phenomenal job!.
as far as being here and learning on the job somin i dont know how to do comment,..allow me to say that,..except for the obvious fact of the amount of knowledge and expertise or skill required to do this well,..i am convinced that so far i have done exceptional.
now i know i probably have been lucky so far,..and thats all good,..however, i also am not clueless either,..i honestly have never in my life encountered anything new to me that with the proper amount of attention and dedication coupled with intense studies
i could not only overcome, but i usually overcome quite well.
as far as getting help for a donation of some significant size, i have no problem with that,..but as it is with all things of this nature, of course i am not the only one involved, meaning that would have to be discussed and approved not only with me, but a few others who r directly involved.
let me also add, i am doing this for patients, people who r sick and need medicine first and foremost above all other reasons. secondly, i am loving the challenge in a horticulture sense, to be able to understand in a biological sense the workings and the nuances of how to grow a plant of this stature, to cause it to develop in a certain way.
as far as warming up to people on here, i have no problem with that,..i am certainly not the most sociable type of person, but, i am easy to get along with as most are i think,..so...lol....since i still dont know how to delete this post( srry guys, im pretty lame with computers,..)if their is anyone who wishes to contact me, i am not sure how to deliver my info without creating a little anxiety in myself,..since anyone can read this post. any suggetions?...
dont want to just go on and on,..so peace, and if i knew how to relate info privatly, i am open to that.
let me add 1 more thing bout the physical setup here,..it was very well done, but as with anything, there is always a punch list that needs attending to,..replacements, upgrades, monitering things, and fixes here and there, as u all most likely already know better then me.
i am a retired profesional union skilled mason of 37 years, i worked my ass off, and became the very best at my skill....i am more then most, very aquainted with hard work. to me, this is no different, i will do with this the same as i do with everything i decide to master,..i will do whatever it requires and eventually, i will be one of u people, who helps others with much less experience and knowledge.

I'm a legal caregiver and i live in the shoreline area, been growing for 4 years. If you're serious you we can work something out 425-622-4491
