nice one buddy! gonna post any pics of that setup u got going? did u sort out the fitting of the tent?
More or less sorted the tent out, still have to go and pick up a cool tube but have not been in a hurry with nothing to put under it yet. Room is sort of setup, the wall plate for the extraction is on back order and I haven't installed the what will be the duct and fan for the cool tube, not much to take photos of but hang ten and will snap a couple off ....

Not my choice but was given them so would be rude not to use them - two strains Auto Little Angle and Early XXX - I think there will only be two of the little angle if I am lucky, killed off most of the seeds with rockwall drying out and too cold a room - I did expect teething problems with getting a handle on this cold climate, did not expect to kill off most of my seed though. Oh well a lesson learned

I know dude it was a nightmare, put the tents together then could not get them through the fekin door, had to put them together in there it was a sweating swearing time. I have to post a pick of the original hood, cracks me up - will go get a cool tube shortly - so I have a spare Super Sun II hood that will be put to use at some stage.

The tent is 600mm wide the hood is 650mm plus need another 200mm for the ducting = no fekin way *muppet

Well they could be sweet strains, won't know till you grow em. Yea I was catching up on the thread and read about the rockwool incident...we all do it at least once! Ha..ha.. the cold is bad....but wait till the warm summers, then things get real interesting, I was using frozen bottles of water last year to bring the temps down.

Ya should see my piece of shit air cooled hood that I made years ago... I still have it around somewhere....I'll try get a pic.

Morning. Nice pics guys, great to see everyone doing well. I use fishmix as well and plants just love the stuff, I'd recommend it to anyone, as guitar says though you wouldn't want to spill it on your carpet.

Heat does not bother me so much, probably as that is what I am used to. I have a really good chilly bin if I need to cool air down and if the summer is anything like last years will be putting it to good use.

Thought about making a tube and then thought bugger it for the sake of 60 quid or so would be a good investment, I still have to make up a box for the window yet, have been slack there as I cannot get to the bloody window with the prop tent setup, but might get the brother in law around and lift it and squeeze under if I can get past the loo. Man this space is tight.

Right lads I gotta go do some work work, but I'll leave ye with pics of my piece of shit DIY air cooled hood for giggles, haven't used it in years mind!

Ha..ha.. I found the hood in a skip... I think I cut the holes out of the sides using a soldering iron and a bread kife, slapped two 12v pc fans to the sides and used to mangle the ducting around the fans.....bloody thing worked too.... but ghetto as fuck!!

Have a great stoney day gents!

Great diy job on the hood guitar. This is the nearest to a hurricane I've ever seen. Trees down all over the place. Be safe out there guys.
