ahahha. I have been thru a few grow ops.

these 8 plants produce way more and much higher quality then some of the ops I saw with 100 plus plants... cuz those 100 plus plants sucked cock :)

literally, the 8 plants filled a 1000 sq foot basement to the brim. it went to the ceiling and was strung out (no pun intended) on wires all over. It was seriously a scientific, hydroponic jungle in that basement. Buds the size of baseball bats, no bs.

And yes, after drying and letting the pickers have their cut, they would get 3-4 pounds of saleable bud per plant. I think they got about $30-$40K per grow (cad funds) and thats it. And as I said, it was split 4 ways...

I loved how for a few days after they picked, they could barely open their eyes cuz they were too stoned. Was very funny.

Strange thing is, I don't really smoke at all... not my thing. I just grew up with these guys.

It's all about the growers. Fletch if you're hooked up with guys that grow primo stuff, that's all that matters. But it's true that Canada grows better stuff on average. I'm not talking about the BC outdoor stuff, I'm talking about the 50,000 grow operations. :thumbsup

No doubt, I suppose you Outdoor Canadians have us beat.

hehehe

Im just trying to speak on behalf of the Cali Herbs bro, hehehe dont hate a brutha for it.

All I got to say is

SEA OF GREEN

and

SCROG.

:smokin

As I said brother.

:winkwink:

all I have to say : :thumbsup

ya technically its just as plausible to grow weed in the us as in canada...thing is, youll spend a lot more on your electricity bills cuz you need to average 24 degrees in your grow room including plenty fuckin heat generated by them sunmasters...so you need AC to the fullest plus a good air intake and an exhaust. plus you have this 3 strike rule which makes it a lil more dangerous... btw do they sell ballasts lights pro-mix and shit in the states? i figured not cuz tommy chong is in prison for selling bongs on ebay but i might be wrong?

Why bump such an old thread?

Anyway, I think that 6 billion dollar figure was made up by Mark Emery to try to have large coporations influence the Canadian government to legalize it.

Tommy Chong is out now I believe

I remember when I went to Disneyland California in 2003.. I only managed to bring a little with me and so we tried to find some while there.. this one guy said.. pot? no way, I don't touch that shit.. you want some crack? another guy offered us regular coke too.. but to mention pot it was like it was one of the worst drugs in the world! Blew me away at the time.. and all these people thought we were undercover cops too :1orglaugh crazy shit

It's easy as hell to find it around here though.. people toke while walking down the street it's so common :upsidedow

holy crap.. this thread was from 2002?? wow! :error :error

And years later canadians still like the pot :thumbsup

maybe i should immigrate.

50 Canadian pot smokers...

if you are talking celsius , actually it should be around 17-18.. and you don't need an AC if you have Co2 your plants can withstand a bit more heat.... also AC is lame.. a two fan water chiller will work way better :thumbsup

That's because it's the government smuggling and selling the cocaine.

hell yeah they do

sonofsam you seem to know your shit too bad your that far away
well whether its 17-18 or 24 (my personal standard) one things for sure...a lot of people in canada stop growing indoors during the summer and move outside...so i figure heat must be a major factor in the states!
so...do they sell hydroponic equipment in the states or do you go through the same BS we go thru to find guns in canada???lol
btw Co2 is only used during the sleeping hours so i doubt it has anything to do with standing the heat...
anybody from quebec on this board? or only crazy crazy americans who moved to montreal for the poutine??lol

Hell yeah ... we provide the americans budy ;) you got NO idea how big this business is

That's not remotly like it ...

We got blueberry and bubblegum here too budy ...

im actually in vancouver, not US :)

and you're right, i completely forgot that c02 was used during sleeping cycle... personally the oldschool intake outtake is what i suggest.. c02 should only be used once every other aspect of the room is tweaked and perfect :2 cents:

also problems with heat can be helped by using HPS lights with tubes around them, and then attach a fan to some ducting and make it blow the hot air into the back of the water chiller

yeah nowadays they sell them reflectors with plastic tubing for the canfan
intake outtake + ac = run this shit thru all summer long :thumbsup
and yes im aware that your in vancouver i was adressing the rest of the board
if you ever come down to "kébek kriss" hehe let me know my friend :) id be glad to meet ya
oh and dre dont bother quoting that guy he spoke out approx. 3 years ago lolll

Listen to all these experts.

3 Pounds from a plant? I don't think so.

Better bud from the prairies? I don't think so.

The problem with the majority of BC Bud, is it's of the Juicy Fruit strain. Also known as fool's gold. Looks to die for, smokes nicey, mediocre high.

Get some BC grown hash plant or blueberry, and there's a high for you. Problem is, the American's all want fools gold, so nobody grows the good stuff in bulk.

Ontario has taken up the challenge, and we are trying harder.

We will be number 1 in nine months!

no single INDOOR plant would ever yeild 3 pounds, MAYBE an outdoor plant that was topped more then like 10 times lol.

problem with bc weed is "nammer bammer" in my opinion

We grow some excellent weed here on the Canadian Prairies
Our biggest problem right now is the RCMP making large grow-op busts.
they made 3 busts in the last couple of weeks taking 25,000 plants at three massive outdoor operations, and yesterday they made 2 more with plants numbering in the thousands.

I didn't mean the Prairies didn't grow good weed. They're just plants, clones go back and forth. My point was more that good weed from Albera and good weed from British Columbia are pretty much the same things.

The difference is BC exports so much of it, that mostly it's an export crop. Big, thick, crystally buds of Juicy Fruit. Looks awesome, but in reality is just mediocre. It's all about the look with BC Juicy Fruit.

The Americans appetite is insatiable

stoner alert, did everyone miss the ass old date on this thread? damn weed smokers :1orglaugh

well im not the one posting about the 3 pound plant. thing is, its relative to the light and the vegetation phase so basically you could make a 3 pound plant by giving it 2000w of light and some fuckin crazy juice. not sayin ive done it nor seen it, but its "possible"
:upsidedow

Na didn't miss it, not that stoned yet... :winkwink:

see sig......... :thumbsup

Canada rocks, where do i find these houses now? ;)

Lol..this thread is old and the prices I quoted back in 2002 were for skunk..not this generic strain that is going around ..since the time this thread started,the cops still can't get a handle on the problem and the Vietnamese,Russian,East Indian and Angels are still going strong.
The Vietnamese purchase million dollar homes and turned them into grow ops..It's all about supply and demand but it is getting even more tougher with the border restrictions.

When I lived in BC (gone some 4 or 5 years now), there was a strain rolling around that was colloquially known as 'Quadruple Wheelchair Weed'... you'd get so fucked up that you'd need FOUR wheelchairs to get you around.

Obviously the name was chosen during the consumption of. :winkwink:

There was no 'mediocre high' with this stuff. If anything, it'd fuck you up TOO much if taken in more than a couple puffs. Things like full on visual and auditory hallucinations. Things like having a conversation with someone, and then wondering if you'd actually said something you think you may have just said. Or did someone else say it. Or is it all in your head... hm.

Who knows these days though... for all I know it could be cowichan ditch weed floating around now.

They just plowed down a grow op out here in NB last week. 20,000 plants. One of the biggest busts in Canada.

That must have been a few warehouses..didn't hear about that.They nailed a couple X labs here in the last couple days that were worth approx 30 mill..very lucrative market

In Abbotsford, there are huge stores that sell nothing but equipment. It's unreal.

I knew there was a reason we haven't blown up canada yet =)
