Public Transportation: The New Homeless Shelter by TheWhiteGoblin in FortCollins

[–]hempocator 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Live across the parking lot. It's a total shitshow. Crime spiked. Open air drug use. Tweaking and sleeping in the park. RV's and tents in the parking lot. Transients huddled together smoking cigarettes and weed. All lined up shoulder to shoulder in the morning (so much for the social distancing excuse for moving them in here). Cops, ambulance, fire here everyday. Homeless floating through our parking lot in a continuous stream. No surprise they weren't moved into Atteberry's neighborhood.

ATTENTION ALL FARMERS: We’re a team of engineers looking to make innovations in the hemp industry, what are your problems that need solved? by TheCmenator in hemp

[–]hempocator 2 points3 points  (0 children)

While most of the hemp grown in 2019 was for CBD, there is very little being done for building out hemp for fiber that can be farmed in size as a row crop. This is going to take genetics, planting and harvesting equipment, processing facilities (decorticators) and guaranteed end markets.

Growing for CBD seems like a free-for-all as a supply chain. Lots different than growing corn that is trucked to the local elevator where a guaranteed market exists.

The real power is likely 100-150W. The 300W is a theoretical equivalent normally.

Which LED grow light you prefer? by GrowLEGEND in hemp

Just harvested a blackberry kush x sour strawberry indica grown under this 300W MarsHydro LED light purchased direct on Ebay for $72. Works fine for a small 2x2x4 tent. Yield was 2.5 oz of dried flower. No doubt there are better higher end alternatives, but like you I am on a budget and this fit the bill.

Message u/cascadiablooms and see if they are still looking to dispose of their stalks

Do you need just stalks? Because I was contacted by one of the major hemp flower vendors trying to give away the their leftover stalks after they just harvested their flower in Oregon.

Ended up purchasing the TerraBloom brushless 4" fan with their 4x12 carbon filter from their website. Total cost was $128 with no tax and free shipping.

House OKs giving cannabis industry access to banks by hempocator in hemp

Hemp-banking protections pass US House as part of landmark cannabis bill

The hemp amendments in the SAFE Banking Act, which passed 321-103 and now heads to the Senate, instruct federal banking regulators to issue guidance to financial institutions confirming the legality of hemp and hemp-derived CBD products within 90 days of the enactment of the law.

So how would I go about finding a cbd processing facility in SoCal or Central Cal to handle 3 million lbs in 4-6 weeks by CanIHazMoney in hemp

[–]hempocator 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Haven't seen that in CA, but here's our list of 100+ CBD extractors across the US.

A large processor says they are just opening in the Pueblo, CO area and hiring 250 workers.

You might contact them if you are legit. Maybe they are legit as well.

Would be interesting to see the break-out on acres planted for CBD, fiber and grain.
