lol I don’t have a hydro bill’ other than the water I give em daily

Oh my bad lol I see what ya mean now, yep that 6hrs a day extra is a chunk, but it’s offset by running lights during off peak hrs

When you run them 24/7, when again is the off peak hours. :sweat_smile: :joy: :rofl:

That’s the big lights in the budroom, 12/12. the ones running 24/7 are veg room all money saver LED except for one big light… I’m happy with my electric bill. Usually running ms me around 225-300/ month, for everything on this property including house and couple sheds,wired.
The big LED in veg is also money saver, helluva lot cheaper than the Metal Halides

I’m on levelized billing. It changes a few bucks a month up or down. But I pay around $230 a month. They average the usage over the past 12 months running so its pretty close each month.

You’ve been here and seen the op, lol The lighting/heating/AC change over the months. I don’t know if we could do that here. Might check into it though.

Its kinda handy, really, knowing fairly close what your bill will be each month.

Yep, that’s why we might check into it.

Just added up total electric for past 12 months, $3,279.32 it runs average of $273.28 for last 12 payments.
I’m very happy with the average, lol especially since we retired from commercial growing, and changed over to all LED lighting. Before then it was on average $600+ month (on a good month)

I just had my highest bill, $86, it used to be about $67. They just raised our rates. I run LEDs 18/6 veg, 12/12 flower and 24/7 re-veg. Of course my plants are smaller :slight_smile:

lol have you seen the pics of my ‘farm-inna-barn’ brother?! That electric is for the whole property, and I’m happy with it! House, 2 outbuildings, & the barn. Plus believe me when I say this… I hate cold or heat anymore in my older years now, Rose is the same… we run the A/C and heaters hard in winter n summer!

No, I haven’t seen the pictures, sounds reasonable then. I too, don’t like the extremes as I get older. We just had a -30 week and I’ve burned a cord of wood already. I love my AC in the summer too.

lol if ya scroll up there are a lot of pics. 12-14 4’dbl shop lights (all converted from floros to LED) also in both rooms 3 of the bigger (3’x4’) LED fixtures with 11 Bridgelux strips/drivers each. plus the A/C & heaters in each room, fans, cloning box, etc…
THEN you go to the house and outbuildings… lol 3BR, 1 bath, living room dining/kitchen. Deep freezer and washer/dryer on back porch (semi-closed in where they are)
The barn has 3 rooms and hallway (2 overhead lights in hall)

lol in other words, a LOT of electric in use! When it was running over $600/month it was hurting.
The entire property is fully electric, no gas, oil, or wood.

2-200amp panels, both full

@Slammedsonoma420 in December we discussed the ZaZa, I had info wrong. The correct info is
ZaZa (Gen 1)
Scotts OG x Gas Station Bob
Scotts OG (Triangle Kush x Rare Dankness #1)
Gas Station Bob (Gas Pedal x Eddy OG)
by South Bay Genetics

edit… The info I got wrong is this;
we didn’t get it from seedsherenow.com, but rather from getseedsrighthere.com
So it looks like I gave a bad/wrong review on the wrong site! sorry about that!
getseedsrighthere.com is the one that was ‘on it’ until they got paid, then got slack as heck.

So the guy you spoke to at seedsherenow.com is the one we’ve had good experience with also, when we’ve gotten beans from him. The other (close in name - getseedsrighthere.com ) is not worth dealing with!

Awesome glad to hear it is from south bay. I actually spoke to him directly, not shn. I have a pack of the Zaza to get to one day! Hope you have a great weekend!
Edit. And about 10 other packs of his

This IS a GEN 1 rooted clone of ZaZa, only was ordered from the guy at that getseedsrighthere company. I have mixed feelings about the deal though. The clone DID make it, eventually. I think he waited until ordered before rooting it! Which is fine by me, that’s how I do it too! lol but, I’ll at least tell the person making the order this, and keep an open communication with them.
I say in the post where I offer the clones, that there will be a 2week lead-time. He didn’t… The other company that I ordered/bought clones from is obviously a much bigger company, with a fuller nursery. They shipped all the GEN 1 clones immediately. lol

edit… Also, I don’t ask for payment until I’m ready to ship! The getseedsrighthere dude took the pay then damn near ghosted for a couple weeks… lol
