Compound HQ's Grows

@Tiflis Here's a chart that Paige converted from our labs, and a chart showing how they interact with your body chemistry. If you're serious about learning when shopping, always ask to see the COC (Certificate of Compliance) which has all the lab results. You can then see what terps may work best for you, and how they can help with certain conditions....

@Tiflis As you can see.. the Orange Kush made quite a bit of Caryophyllene, Humulene, linalol, and Pinene... 6.6 % terps total, which was a record terp strain for us. Very good for sedation, and sleep.

What makes you pick a strain? What consumers want or ease of grow etc? Profitable or yeild? I could be wrong but appears OG, chem or deisel are the smokes of premium choice but then again i don't get to actually see current day retail in my state. curious

We pick a strain by a few factors. THC is not necessarily one of them, as you can usually control that by harvest. Yield, and structure are prob the main ones we look for. We like to get a mix of Indica Doms, Sativa Doms as well.

Thank you for sharing those, saved them for future reference.

No problem man! Yes, this was the crop before last. I was too lazy at the time to go out to the grow and get last grows charts. I was still in my PJ's, and drinking coffee.

@Relaxed ... picking stains is also a crap shoot. You'll have periods where Runtz is popular but by the time you get a crop out, people are onto something else. So I don't really try to chase that moving target. So.. Im going to be testing samples for potency only at different time periods towards the end and get the max THC I can. That's what the people want, so we're gonna try to fulfill that until they get more educated. Labs for Potency only are like $50. Full Panel (which is required) runs anywhere from $265-$350 depending on the lab. So, If you plan to sell your trim (which we do), then you have to pay for a separate Full Panel for that as well. 3 strains will require 6 lab tests. (3 for bud, 3 for trim). Unless you have more than 10 lbs per strain, then you have to pay for another set of labs. If we are close.. like 10.5 lbs, .. we'll take that .5 for ourselves. Im not paying $300 to test a half a lb.

Info: a test batch is 10lbs.

Thanks for the info. very interesting. a moving target. I am focused on the 3 og , chem and diesel just don't know when you have all the local legal options. They focus on thc. only hmmm.

Yeah, it's really weird .. if they would just TRY good terp weed, they'd understand. I guarantee you that if you had someone sample it, and tell them it was 26%... when it was really 13%, they'd believe you.... too bad we can't do a "Pespi Challenge" on the streets... some of you older guys will get that.

Ok so a quote from one of my favorite comedians, "Oh fucking shit my Christ".

 

[DoubleAtotheRON]

Haha!... was seeing if there were any Breaking Bad fans here. Jesse always said “”Making mad stacks yo!”.. when he was slinging the crystal blue meth.

The Boss checking on me... this is Paige.

 

[Flatrate]

That lady should be nominated for Sainthood or have a holiday named after her for putting up with the likes of you!

Tell Frog she needs to sign up here so we can hear the truth for once!

LOL

 

[DoubleAtotheRON]

She def puts up with alot of my shit!. Gotta hand it to her tho, she's been the backbone of this business with all the reporting, paperwork, compliance, etc. I don't have the patience for that. The State just signed up with METRC, a seed to sale tracking system. We just got in 800 RFID tags, and labels. We have to tag every plant from seed to harvest with these fucking tracker chips, and then put on a tracking chip label on every package we sell. She's almost done training on the system, but geez.. talk about a pain in the ass. Inventory has to be in the METRC system by the end on the month.

what a stupid pain in the ass govt. does to a row crop. I bet you stopped smoking lol...

... oddly enough, I don't smoke that often.... I'll get on a kick for about a week or so, and then not for a couple weeks. I likes my wine. But, yeah.. everyone's got thier hand out if you're a grower, and it's a bit on the over reach side. However, this may just weed out (pun intended), the people not following the rules and guidelines like we have done from the start. We don't do any side hustle, or anything stupid like that. ... You'll get your card pulled forever if you get caught. But METRC is a pretty costly and complicated system to learn for the average Joe, much less some half ass redneck trying to feed half of their production to the black market, so this may be a good thing. We have waayy too many growers as it is... and word on the skreets is that they just hired 10 more inspectors. And they just changed the rules from 24 hour notice, to a knock and talk.

When I was running NFTG I used something like this on a drill.

If you have a problem getting one give me a shout and I will send you mine, I don't use it anymore.

Holy crap! I could have made good use of that a long time ago! That's a game changer if it can fit into the containers.

It will fit into like a 5 gallon paint container lid opening.... so it should work great! I didn't have this one, but something similar.
