Hurricane lane may kill my crop!!!

[IslandColas]

As you may have heard a cat5 Hurricane named Lane is headed towards the Hawaiian Islands. We lose power often on the islands and I hope we don’t lose it for long nor have any serious issues with room.

Yikes batten down the hatches for that one if you lose power can you move them outside

[IslandColas]

No I’m full hydro indoor. And I live in a packed neighborhood. Plus I don’t believe it’s legal to have medical plants visible on your property.

I suffer frequent power outages in my area usually due to trees being brought down onto power lines by gusting winds. Before I set up my current garden, I started looking into the question of solar and wind powered electrical storage, and found this company.. while it is expensive, it is modular and can be expanded over time, the wind energy generated alone by one small home wind generator is quite impressive, and if someone wanted to spend money on such a system, like me for example, then I see this as a possible solution to indoor gardening needs, I am sure some electrician could rig something similar up, but I just thought I would share it with you for future reference.

use A power inverter that plugs into your card cigarette outlet . You can get one for like 30-40$ and it will atleast allow you to run the airpumps . I know it’s not perfect but it’s better then nothing . You can just run a drop cord to the house . I moved plants across the country and back with nothing but a power inverter in the back of my suv. So I know for a fact it will work .

IslandColas, I hope they are accurate in their predictions about the hurricane's path. That doesn't look too bad. I hope you and all Hawaiians are safe.

[IslandColas]

Aloha for all your support family. We’re set to handle it most likely but a generator will be a next but when this all passes...

[Chefbjy]

E noho maluhia my friend.

[alltatup]

Yes, I need a generator, too, for the SouthEast Coast...

[furrysparkle]

Good luck, if they survive it’ll be an epic smoke for sure!!

[IslandColas]

We were debating on naming this new strain cat5 if it survives.

[NAKEDGARDENER]

Good name dude lol

[oldjarhead100]

a new strain as well that sounds like a great name and a great selling point two

[IslandColas]

Today it was reduced to a cat3 and we’re expected to get 1 foot of rain and winds up to 70 miles an hour

[oldjarhead100]

thats still nasty and hard on the girls

[DankwingDuck]

Hey tho a foot of rain. Rain water is 0ppm I would be collecting it while it’s free 😬
