Scarlet Sky is out of business...

HEY I like you so I'm making sure you realize,
DONT just start shutting everything off.
Think about it, they say hey your power usage is exceeding normal amounts,
and then RIGHT after that it goes down a hundred bucks?
If they're smart, they'll know you're scared and obviously doing something.
So taper it off slowly, ya?

that sucks scarlet...sorry to hear about this...I'd honestly provide a legitimate reason...pottery kiln was a great idea..we've started using a couple of high wattage flood lights at night to light up outside area..something..

I guess you may be better safe than sorry though..Crispi..that plant makes me jealous...

Scarlet I am so sorry to hear this...i know you have been really having struggles this past year. Like Crispi says......be safe aLWAYS!!:(

1cron, i have them outdoors on a 15 acre track. they are hidden in the waywardness of a giant hemlock, sufficient until i can retrieve them.

inferious, what we did was go back to the way things were before the grow. we've been conserving power equal or more than the usage of the grow, so our bill has been plus or minus fifty bucks for almost three years now. we'll keep it level, thanx though! if i didn't know that, i'd deffinitely need to...

mark, one step into our house and these guys will think, "no damn wonder" i don't think we have an unused outlet in the whole house! *exageration*

hound, that's life for ya... maybe i'll win the lotto tomorrow :D

Sky :abduct:

as goes the cycle of life.....LIFES A GARDEN GROW IT

you know it! i'm not sweating it too much, like i said, this is my opportunity to try hydro, after the dust settles, and i have some new stock to try, my first choice, a strain of alaskan decent, not sure of the lineage, but reportedly mind boggling...:D high, high hopes...

Made???? how the hell do they send a letter asking about possible electric "problems"??? Are they thinkin you got a leak >????.........LMAO

For y'all that grow, setup paying the damn bill electronically. The juice company never sees, you never get paper bill, and everyone is happier than a pig in shit. The ONLY way you ever come across their radar screen is if you do not pay bill. If you had someone stickin money in your bank account every month, would you mess with >??????? This aint Chinese Calculus.....


OK, I'll stop this now......I am going to check to make sure I dont have any electric leaks.....


b0nger

Scarlet its good to see you have a positive attitude!:)

bonger, the only reason they are looking now, is because we had to get help paying the light bill, we were two months behind. they seem to think that we have a meter prob, or bad wiring, or that we're doing something illigal.

sp, i try babe, i try...

i'm shut down temporarily, i have only four moms now, one bonzai, one just reveged, one just topped yesterday, and one just rooted, not reveged. it's so sad... but i kept the winners (and i have one black dom to try and reveg... fingers crossed) these guys are either going outside, or to a friends until we get this sitch under control.

when i start again, i will be starting with dwc, no dirt (cept for the moms) but i may only do three or four individual buckets. i understand the downside, and if i can get a setup together and working properly, i may do a full run. regardless, this seems to be the perfect opportunity, a sign if you will.

we harvest over 11lbs of wet weight this morn, only four were close, to of those actually ready. depressing; i may have to trade the dealer...


all that work.... *sigh*
