Why I love DIRT! And FRIENDS!!!!

I just got a call from a grow buddy who was freaking out...

He's all hydro all the way... clones in aero... had a power outage... :eek:

You can only imagine what the call was about...

'I just lost them all!!!!'

'Lost all of what?'

'my entire next crop!!!'

Over 100 clones that were only a few days from being rooted in an ez cloner... DEAD...and the donor moms too chopped up to provide new cuttings.

So anyway I'm giving him replacement cuttings tonight from my little moms.

The moral of this story is always have a backup plan!!!

Especially for hydro and aero growers... a small generator is a MUST, even if it isn;t enough to power your lights, a little one that can power your pumps and a few flouro fixtures will SAVE YOUR ASS.

damn that sux stinky ,
12,000 watt guardian nat. gas self starter at the crispi residence . lol
i still need a 15 min. interupter ahead of my 4 gang greenair timer / controller so bulbs will cool before refiring though .

Stinky - what are your thoughts on liquid karma instead of sweet ? looks like l/k has almost everything sweet contains plus a whole lota xtras ? sorry to jump thread . i had posted a like thread aimed at yourself n didn't get many replies .
thanx sis
crispi

oh sorry
never tried liquid karma but have been told that it and some other carb product- carb load? carb max? durrr? were also solid products. Aaaah I'm not really an expert!

That power your whole house X-C? We have a 6500 watt (gasoline)but are looking at a 10,000 watt LP to power the entire home. I only have one 1k watt light.....would that kind of generator be enough?

haha i think you answered your own question weedhound

Yeah, but yeag we also have a well and it has to power the heat,fridge, washer etc....we only have propane around here...no natural gas and gasoline bites...so all that plus the growroom light, fan etc..:confused:

hey weedhound ,
my gen. fires the whole house via a transfer switch that senses volt drop from the pole . lights flicker for a sec. / but not even enough of a loss to screw w/ our digital clocks . 10,000w. is still huge weedhound . you could turn on everything in your whole house and 2-3 1000's continously easy .
peace
your cuz

Thanks X-C. Stinky I went out and ordered a spare of everything (air pump etc) after reading this....sorry about your friend but a good wake up call for me. ;)
