Bandit on a Safari and I'm Hunting Unicorns

[ninjadip]

That's a find right there all NOS like that and everything!
Mine are all scattered in boxes if they're not left up in the rafters.

I'll mess with the mood lights later today after work.



It's defunct technology now but yeah! Would be cool if a company like AC Infinity resuscitated it but yeah man check this shit out!

I've taken it even further with hydraulic tables so now plants and lights go up and down by remote control...

Having a bad back got me into all the remote control stuff and building things like the water delivery system. I've always kinda thought if weed got legal here I might get into building handicap accessible grow rooms

BTW I have your VG printed out and now I just need to make time for a trip to the post office

Even those have been discontinued. I saw them in action once in demo and thought they were a downgrade. The app was wonky AF.
Sun System was one of those victims of covid and buyouts.
Hawthorne and it's big ag evilness swooped in and bought it out then discontinued pretty much all products.
They did the same with other companies. Pretty much everybody got devoured in buyouts but some products survived. Like all the General Hydroponic nutes but not any systems, Gavita, Can Fan all lived and are now under Hawthorne but like CAP and Sunlight Supply were lost.
Then that's where companies like ACI and Vivosun came in to offer alternatives and better pricing.

Quality overall across the board has suffered IMO. The ancient Jedi proverb "They sure don't make 'em like they used to" applies like a MF in 2025



Yeah you could say that.....

It would be crazy to have the hydraulics set on a leaf temp sensor or maybe AI to read the leaves or some crazy Batman shit lol

Go Bandit!

I may be going that route next IDK.
Not willing to buy Stonington anymore not just on price but in my last 3 bags, one had a huge clump of mycelial mass like something that formed around a rotting log and my last bag had a big worn plastic grocery bag mixed in. It was the best soil ever for me but price and recent lack of quality control have me looking at options. I have 5 bags of Greenfields to start then gonna look around at local options.

That would be super ez to do!
The control interface is ready for several types of control. I use handheld remote but there's also radio transmitter, app control, then aftermarket which could be a trigger sensor activated by anything.
BTW your VG ship
ped out yesterday!

Here's that link on the carb cap but there's a ton of fancy options out there too. I think Amazon may have taken this down too.

Man I think Small fucked Briscoe with that last pit. didn't have winning speed, but I felt it had 5th-10th place speed. KB lost 1st on melted tires but Bell won it as well. I just fell like Brisky coulda been top 10 and not 14.
But yeah...Great to see that penalty lifted and now he's in the hunt!!

BTW...The weekend provided some grow light sticker redemption for me making up for losing the SVG sticker to you

Happy Race Day

Time for the 3rd annual burnout post in my grow journal!!!

Another week another grind. Made some progress this week with plants getting upcanned and cleaned up and all males culled.








Picked up some extraction lab stuff today

You just couldn't help yourself right?

 

[steamroller]

Great seats again. Great race glad you got to enjoy it man~!
Plants look outstanding as usual~!
Another toy.
Watching what you do with this.

Those freeze dryers are awesome for drying buble hash.only times I have ever been able to get real blonde buble rosin it was dryed in one of those.

Had to beat the tariffs!
At least that's my excuse and I'm sticking to it

Thanks Buddy!
Hence forth and starting with this current crop...All rosin made here will be Live Rosin!!!

I've been thinking about trying it out to winterize waxy rosin and see how that comes out.
And of course, taking a run at making astronaut ice cream
Cant wait to get the lab all built out and start playing with it

How do you winterize with it.that sounds interesting

Not sure yet. But there's a vacuum pump and -40 temps so it will be a day of

It will make some fire full melt buble hash if you use fresh frozen bud.i liked the hash more than the rosin we pressed out of it.

Did you freeze dry before or after running thru the wash?
I don't have a bubble hash washer but almost everything else from press to tumbler and sift screens.
I'm pretty much planning on freeze drying everything before any kind of extraction.
Really curious about how the tumbler will do with freeze dry especially. I think that's the one where with freeze dried material, tight micron screen and tumble for maybe 1-5 minutes would provide the cleanest full melt hash I can probably make. I also have a freezer large enough now to stick the tumbler in there and do everything at below zero temps.




Work is well underway to organize and declutter my carport getting rid of stuff I've been hoarding, cleaning, and making it a more functional and usable area.
With the freed up space I want my extraction lab and a soil lab in there. If there's enough room I may also move my small indoor sauna out there. My massage recliner is out there already but not set up and I may also add something like a bench press or step up station for exercise. I really want my carport to be functional like a garage and man cave more than just a place to store shit out of sight and out of mind.

I want the soil station to be an area protected from weather with a mixer, table for at least 8 bags, a sealed bin for amendments, and be ez to hit with a garden hose or leaf blower for ez clean up.

It's coming along.
The decluttering will free up a trash bin with sealing lid I can use for mix in goodies, the table just needs cleaning up, and I got the mixer a while ago. It's for compost but I'm gonna 3D print some paddles for the inside to make it into a mixer.
This will end up being a very user friendly space as I get back into to mixing soils




This space is gonna be my pride and joy because I'm putting just as much into it as I have my grow space since making hash is right there with growing for me as favorite hobbies.
I want the extraction lab to be special. Perform at a very high level and do various jobs.
Equipment is all in place as of today. Tomorrow I'll run electric and also put in lighting and a fan.

I already have a bluetooth speaker to jam while I squish and sift but Thursday it's also getting a 22" TV with neon backlighting and a firestick for streaming. Ya know...Just in case I wanna squish and watch racing at the same time

So for the fresh frozen live rosin we would know before hand which plants where washers.we would chop it, remove all fan leaves from bud ,bag it,put directly into the deep freeze .then we would pull it out when we were ready to wash it.after the hash was collected from the wash we would dry it in the freeze dryer.then run it through a sieve to separate it,bag it and press the rosin.we cold cured allot of that rosin for dabs but did that in the deep freeze also. The only thing we used the freeze dryer for was drying buble hash.they got it right before i quit the farm,so i didnt have. Allot time to mess with it .i never put flower in it.we never pressed flower we always made all our rosin from dry sift or buble.We also pressed allot of dry sift from the trim bins .the fresh frozen and dry sift from the indoor weed was sold as dabs or we would winterize it and make carts.the rosin from the dry sift and washes from the outdoor we would make edibles with.we would also do an ethanol soak of the hash rosin chips for edibles. The chip soak was always too thick for the source turbo, because I soaked so many chips in one batch.the source turbo would always burp it into the clean ethanol reservoir. We just used the turbo to reclaim the stuff we were winterizing for carts. Awesome set up dude!!!!!

Love it man, nice set ups.

like two trains coming at each other!!!! hahahaha

.
.

man what a sweet setup!!!!!!

.
so remember how this round i started my seeds just after you did? well totally pants yet once again!!!!

i've really been slacking this round, spending more time on the hydro because it's a diva and the soil plants just do their own thing and don't need training wheels. gonna do an upcan in the few days. i'm out of my used soil so now all i have left is new stonington, i'm so dreading using it because i absolutely know its gonna have gnats like every other bag!!! i'm gonna try to dump it out and add the nematodes and water it in a tote for a few days before i upcan,,, really wish i would have done this a week ago!!! spaced it! those nematodes worked so freakin awesome for me, first time i haven't had gnats in a couple years now!!!

watchin the busch race now.. been proud of myself, i haven't missed a single points opportunity on fan rewards!! got the cup steak bonus last week too!!! scored a bonus 50 for buying the premium app option (scanner) last week as well. only go 10 for the powerball this week, i assume this fluctuates, i remember you saying something about that..

we both got Brisky in the pool this week!!!!!!!!!!!!! i took larson in the 36/36.. i didn't join a league or anything with that or fantasy, just a one man team!! hahaha i'm always in first place baby!!! and last... hahaha
