According to the CA Public Utilities Commission, indoor cannabis cultivation is responsible for about 3% of California’s electricity consumption, which is equivalent to the electricity consumption of one million California homes, so low energy lights are important to this industry.

A lot of updates come straight to my inbox but it’s a lot of reading, and note taking. No more fictional novels for me at night

What is the most economical skin treatment oil? I can’t afford to keep buying the $150 daily bottles I was putting on my husband. Three days was not long enough to see results but our finances said stop.

Hey Neal, welcome to Growers Network! Would you be interested in sharing your knowledge about greenhouse controls on our blog?
Hey everyone! My name is Alexander Malik, I’m currently living in Saint Paul, Minnesota and I’m a full time student at Colorado State majoring in Horticulture. I’m also currently job-seeking for a position as a cultivator and/or grower. With Minnesota only having two licensed medical cannabis facilities, it definitely makes the job search a bit difficult. I am also currently completing courses from Soil Food Web Inc. My end goal would be to eventually run and own a craft cultivation facility. However my current goal would be to gain employment growing or as an assistant grower. I am incredibly driven, flexible, with an insatiable thirst for knowledge. I look forward to connecting, learning, and hopefully collaborating with many of you!

Hey everybody! My name’s Colin and I’m a co-owner of the Funnypharm. We are a new company selling mineral based hydroponic supplements. What makes us different is our easy-to-use quart and gallon Refills.
These Refills contain proper ratios of high quality raw ingredients for one quart or gallon bottle. We’ve noticed most growers prefer liquid products over dry powders. Liquids can be easier to measure and less messy to use but they are also more expensive. The grower can mix their own water with one of our Refills and have a liquid nutrient without overpaying for it.
Whether its Calcium and Magnesium, Silica, Flush, etc. we use flat rates of $9.95 for all quart Refills and $19.95 for gallon Refills with free shipping on all orders.
Funnypharm’s founder Mark, is a disabled veteran who has been growing cannabis professionally and mixing his own nutrients for almost 30 years. We are excited to share his knowledge and to be a part of this community.
Please visit https://thefunnypharm.com/ for more details.
Thanks and have a good one!

@nick I appreciate the advice! I agree, especially with trying to keep up with all the new research that seems to come out every week. I’m excited to have a place where I can have friendly chats/debates with others who are also looking for the best methods and research for growing. Happy to be involved! I’ll get on posting my resume shortly.
