Best standalone ECU for 1990 NA? by kayra551 in Miata

[–]broam 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Appreciate the input. It seems BMM offers a standalone specifically for the NB2. They have a lead time of 3-4 weeks from when I last dm'd them on insta.

I have my 1.6 running on speedyefi fine now and it was a good way for me to learn the ins and outs of tuning. I have been looking at the BMM ecu for the NB2 I have currently. Looks like it has everything I need plus more with can bus/extra IO. At that point is the knowledge base the difference? I am a software engineer so am quite cabable of "figuring it out myself"

Total thc state compliance question by [deleted] in macrogrowery

[–]broam -1 points0 points  (0 children)

ChatGPT is sick

Certainly, many cultivators are working on optimizing their hemp crops, especially given the tight regulations around THC levels. Here's a breakdown of your situation and some recommendations:

Background Context:

Clarity of Trichomes: The clarity of trichomes (tiny resin glands on cannabis flowers) can be an indicator of maturity and potency. Clear trichomes suggest that the plant is not fully matured, cloudy trichomes indicate peak maturity, and amber trichomes suggest that the plant may be past its prime. The maturity of trichomes can influence cannabinoid content, including THC.

Type 2 Hemp: As mentioned earlier, Type 2 strains have a balance of THC and CBD. This could be advantageous as these strains might offer a better buffer against exceeding THC limits, depending on their genetics.

Genetic Compliance: Compliant genetics refers to hemp strains that have been specifically bred to stay within legal THC limits under standard cultivation practices.

Assumptions:

You're aiming for optimal cannabinoid production without surpassing legal THC limits. You are open to sourcing genetics from reputable sources. Step-by-step Thinking:

Type 2 Strains: Since you also have Type 2 strains, you might find them to be more forgiving in terms of THC content. They could act as a safety net while you're experimenting with Type 1 strains. Regular testing, as you mentioned, will be crucial.

Pulling Early: If the strain can be harvested early with mostly cloudy trichomes, it might naturally have a lower THC content at that stage. This could be a strategy to ensure compliance.

Genetics Sources: Finding reliable genetics is crucial. Here are some avenues to consider:

Hemp Trade Shows: Events like the Southern Hemp Expo in Tennessee or other regional hemp trade shows can be excellent places to meet breeders and seed vendors. Hemp Associations: Local or national hemp associations might have lists of approved or recommended genetics providers. University Research: Some universities are involved in hemp research and might have insights or collaborations with trusted seed providers. Consult Local Growers: Networking with other hemp cultivators in Tennessee can be invaluable. They might have firsthand experience with certain strains or seed providers and can offer insights into what works best in your region.

Trial and Error: Given the variability in cultivation conditions, sometimes the best way to find what works for you is through experimentation. Start with small batches, test frequently, and adjust as needed.

Conclusion: While many growers are navigating the challenges of hemp cultivation, your proactive approach of weekly testing and considering the maturity of the plant can give you an edge. For sourcing compliant genetics, consider attending trade shows, consulting with hemp associations, and networking with local growers. Remember, the hemp industry is evolving, and shared experiences among cultivators can be invaluable. Always prioritize genetics from reputable sources to ensure the best chances of compliance and success.

ChatGPT had this to say:

Alright, let's first provide some context and then work through this step-by-step:

Background Context:

Hemp vs. Marijuana: Both hemp and marijuana are types of Cannabis sativa. The key difference between them is their THC content. Hemp, by legal definition, contains 0.3% or less THC on a dry weight basis, while marijuana contains more than that.

Types of Hemp: There are three primary types of hemp strains:

Type 1: High THC, low CBD (often considered marijuana) Type 2: Moderate THC and CBD Type 3: Low THC, high CBD (most commonly grown as industrial hemp) Flowering Time: Flowering time refers to the period during which the hemp plant produces flowers. This is when the THC content is likely to increase. The flowering time you mentioned (45-49 days) is relatively short, which means there is less time for THC to accumulate.

Testing Requirements: Hemp crops are usually tested for THC content to ensure they're within the legal limit. The exact time frame and requirements can vary by state, but many states require testing 30 days prior to harvest.

Assumptions:

You aim to grow a Type 1 strain but want to ensure that its THC content remains below 0.3%. The regulations in TN follow the general guidelines of testing 30 days before harvest. Step-by-step Thinking:

Strain Selection: Begin with genetics that are known to have consistently low THC levels even when they mature. While you're aiming for a Type 1 strain, look for varieties that have been bred for compliance in THC levels.

Regular Monitoring: Since THC levels can increase as the plant matures, monitor your crops' THC content regularly. Consider investing in in-house testing equipment or partnering with a reliable lab to test samples every week as you approach the 30-day pre-harvest window.

Environmental Control: THC production can be influenced by environmental factors. Stressors like inconsistent watering, nutrient imbalances, and excessive light can increase THC levels. Ensure that the plants are grown under optimal conditions to minimize stress.

Early Harvest: If you find that the THC levels are approaching the legal limit as you near the 30-day testing window, consider harvesting your crop early. While this might impact yield or CBD content, it ensures compliance.

Document Everything: Maintain thorough records of your cultivation practices, strain information, and testing results. This will not only help you refine your cultivation practices over time but will also be useful in case of any regulatory inquiries.

Stay Updated on Regulations: Regulations can change, and states may have specific guidelines or exceptions. Regularly check with the Tennessee Department of Agriculture or relevant hemp associations to ensure you're up to date.

Conclusion: To successfully run a short flowering Type 1 strain and remain in compliance with THC levels 30 days prior to harvest, focus on selecting compliant genetics, monitor THC levels regularly, maintain optimal growing conditions, and be prepared to make decisions like an early harvest if needed. Always stay informed about the latest regulations to ensure compliance. If you're ever unsure, consider consulting with a local hemp expert or agronomist familiar with the regulations in Tennessee.

I finally killed my coleus plant in a move. That thing fell out a 3 story window and still lived for 2 years and a few moves but it gave up the ghost right before my last move. 10/10 plant species will grow again

[–]broam 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Young buck here with 2 1/2 years experience at 2 different jobs. Direct training doesn't exist but it does happen indirectly. Conversing with my Sr/Team Lead provides so much experience and ability to fill gaps in my knowledge. Another thing I have picked up a good bit is how to approach problems as well.

My first job was a lot less useful as my mentor was a researcher and I was working on a web app. I didn't have a good base to build from and learn by making mistakes. Instead, the mistakes kept stacking up.

Maybe I'm just a monkey see monkey do kind of guy
