med-mans kind canna collective - dmt's (dirt medical trees)

another textbook octo bush lol......(headband)
an octo bush in full effect lol..branchces are forced down laterally thru the cages then broken so they face down ward.....
all heaband, ready to e "octobushed"....
a happy headband, just starting to explode after a solid flower dragon dose......
karma jack week 4.......
karmas jack at week 4 as well.....
med mans head band at 4 weeks bloom......
the room at 2 weeks...
karmas jack at 3 weeks veg....
this day 14, doubled up as usual ),......... its bright in here
head band after 7 days veg....
this is karmas jack after 7 days of veg......
this day 1 veg, karma jack in the back.....
both drains (hoses) run back to the drain...........
so the pex connects to the selanoid and the return is connected to the garden hose. a bungee cord supports the whole mechanism.........
the plumber was happy to help, and only charged us 1/3 of his wage. if anyone with a license needs a good plumber let me know and i can pass his number on to you...........
cold waterr goes in, controlled by a selanoid connected to a thermostat, then runs to waste back to the sink........
these chillers will keep the breeze flowing trees blowing and most important out tempos at optimal conditions.........
just grabbed 2 3fan swamp chillers from GLYCOLD in aldergrove, bc. they are buyer direct and offer wholesale prices. check them out in my favorite places thread...........
this is the crack jack. a 10 week sativa phenotype of the legendary strain jack herer. my other karma jack cut finishes in a week or two less.......... the crack jack cut grows very similar to the headband, and blooms amazing neon green rock hard nuggets, giving it amzing bag appeal. this clone will yield huge, especially with trees, but performs well under any setting or grower. it smells like skunky/lemon pine sol/terpenpine. the energy this plant gives to the user is long lasting, often lasting into the morning the next day. world class plant........
med mans headband(bobby ocean cut). this is mostly leafless, squat budder. throw away the scissors folks, cuz these are labour friendly. we always have to keep the patient in mind. they are great as trees for their amzing vigor when vegging, they stratch out really nice, and have little veggitation to allow maximum bud ripening even deep into the canopy......
i took new clones for the grow, as the others got too big and stressed in their beer cups. we will be running some of med mans headband and crack jack plants. both lokk awseome at 70 days even. especially with a nice 5 days of dark and ice around day 65
both lines ran nicely into one end of the room, where both a/c's will be utilized...........
this is the second sink, same cold water a/c bypass....... complete with flow valve.....
becuase both sink serve as drains and cleaning stations, our brilliant plumber tapped directly to the water source for the a/c's, as to keep the tubs ready for unadultered use........
whilst our plumber finished up the second sink and pex for the 2 a/c's, i opted to cut 24 dmt cages. 4 feet tall and 6x6 squares. they train braches down for the first 1/2 of the grow, then hold up the buds when they start bending and breaking........
the generous folks at flower dragon donated a box of their special bloom booster for this grow to the kind canna collective. it is a non carcinogenic, more natural and cannabis specific alternative to top load or phosphoload or other similar products. it makes plants produce larger, denser flowers by increasing bud metabolism via stopping the plants from stretching and diverting energy to bud and trichome production. flower dragon is available at most if not all hydro supply retailers. soil can be reused as well with flower dragon, unlike top load or phosphoload or other similar products..........thanks agian guys ) www.flower-dragon.com check em out
the second sink is set up in the hallway inbetween the rooms. now the pex has to be ran and connected to the a/c's.........next to the sink is the 330 feet rool of farm fence, which make our vscrog(vertical screen of green) dmt's......
one sink is set up in the closet space in the small room.......
we lined the 100gal res with ploy then opened 3 dirt bails in it at a time, broke them down and filled the totes. it went qiuck and easy with just 2 people........
finished off the floor to make it an official lab.....
we may end up polying the rest of the floor, wel see what happens.....noiw we just need our plumber and swamp chillers, co2 burner and planting is all that will be left.......
side lighting would really heat up the root zone without the reflective poly, why not make use of the extra light and solve the heat issue in 1 simple step......
i took a panoramic shot of the room. the reflective material utilizes all the light, keeps the light out of the clear totes and keeps root zone temps lower. if the totes were black id still wrap them for the other 2 benefits out of the 3 listed......
it took about 11 bails of sunshine mix #4 to fill 35 12 gallon storage totes. once we water and let the "dust settle" we may end up topping off the totes with a litre more of medium to cover any sink holes cuased by trapped air. its key to maintain a solid soil line in the grow....
these are all 40 babies being prevegged in beer cups as the production site is completed.......
the room will be og kush (left) and west coast sour diesel (right) with a couple purple kush, med mans headband and maybe some karma jack too
another angle.......
wide angle shot, lights lit, and extremely bright...... just what the med-man ordered )
only ametuers would set up a warehouse without a high heat kill switch, which i also had in storage. its the grey box/dial connected to the white cord and is set to 90 degrees to save the medz from any heat stress/death......
im providing my own nutes, a 100 gal res, propane tank and charcoal filter, tri meter and mag drive pump for cost......
number all the plugs to their respective bulbs......
all the bulbs are fitted and working......
this is the finished product. next shift we will be screwing in all the sunmaster super hps bulbs and firing them up for a test run )...
all 24 ballasts have been placed so tacking the cord and attaching the moguls is all thats left....
1/2 the sockets have been assembled, the supplier was out the day we bought them all the rest are there now waiting for us...
600w super deluxe hps bulbs will be used for this grow. for electric ballasts i avoid hortilux and use solar max or the pictured product......
these ballast are light, csa and lu certified, generate little heat or noise and pump out lumens......
the lamp cords are stapled to the walls/beams/ceiling until they reach their final resting places...
we attach the csa certified units to the wall or new beams for safety and practicality.....
we ran 2x4's acroos the studs to fit my blue prints for the lighting specs.......
i just got 24 600W digital ballats. time to rock......
this will need 8 more receptacles at 240v as there will be 24 digital 600w ballasts burning.
this was initially designed for a 16x16 flip flop timer. ive opted to do 1 room 24 lights and upgrade the power for the future. this is how everything was the 1st day on site.
i was told the last crop was left to die becuase of the ill patient tending it. this is a travesty to me. poor little guys.
this is the future production site, just thru the doors on the other side.

this is the game plan: x= 1 plant and 0 = i 600w sunmaster super hps

x 0 x 0 x 0

0 x 0 x 0 x

x 0 x 0 x 0

0 x 0 x 0 x

x 0 x 0 x 0

0 x 0 x 0 x

x 0 x 0 x 0

0 x 0 x 0 x

0 0 0 0 0 so that should be 24 lights, 30 plants.

30 plants always 12/12, and 68 plants vegging in the other room. 34 plants will recieve 8-10 weeks preveg and another 34 4-5 weeks behind the others.

or, option 2 is to start 24 clones and veg for 8-10 weeks and take 34 new clones at 4-5 week intervals. we'll get to that soon.

it was a shame to see all this effort wasted, thats where i come in ;-). the key is to have a win win mentality, where every loss really is a gain when the eyes to see and ears to hear it. our electrician has viewed the site and we think it will take 4-12 hours to get all the electrical done. we have to move the timer, make a ceiling grid of 2x4's to attach the cable and ballasts to, add a couple more timed boxes for the extra ballasts, wire all the boxes and sockets, and lay out the lighting schematics so we know what we are placing and where.

ive opted to start a non profit society and work for donations. my first gig with my collective is for an ms patient who has tried for a year now almost to produce medical grade cannabis and is too busy, weak or mentally available for the challenge.

my seeds were featured in the feb 2010 issue of high times under "canadas super seeds, and was contacted via the article on me for the task. i gladly accepted as im starting to to finally feel a little better from a bad motor vehicle accident in novemebr 09.

i offer equipment and labour for cost, and my wage is donated as a sum deemed necesarry for my performance. the only fee i have for initial set up is 100 per bulb for my gas, food and labour costs as i need to pay rent and eat too ;-) i have plumbers, electricians, suppliers and wholesalers, growers, trimmers and helpers down for my cause: a healthier happier world, and producing canadas kindest canna.

this will be my first official consultation as "the kind canna collective", and hope you enjoy the show. mm
