I just bought 4 x 120mm "PC fans" from snizen99 - 3 of the 4 died within 12 hours and the 4th was dead when switched on. He refunded my payment but it still cost me to return the fans so I could get the refund. So I ended up out of pocket and don't have any fans.

There may be a reason his prices are cheap.
Thats bad luck on your behalf I never had issues with him and spent thousands nor has anyone else I ever came across, buying from a store you run the same risks, but pat more initially.

hey guys. i'm thinking of doing a sea of green with low ryder. will have a screening room to separate females from males, using half the females for budding, other half to seed. I bought a 80w(250w) CFL a few months ago, one of the phillips type ones. its a 6400k temp, just wondering if they'll still flower under that temp. anyone know?

Yea, I figured it was bad luck, that's why I didn't (and won't) leave negative feedback on eBay for him - definitely a bad batch of fans from China.

already have MH and HPS gear, i'd just like to have a CFL option for the summer. i have a string of party lights fitted out with 3000k cfl's, might be better for the full growth and flower stage of lowryders?

CC master hemp -goes through as a lighting store, the skunk seeds I orders are crazy huge about twice the size of any seed I've ever grown/bought hope they grow good.

How do you think all those dodgy looking buds you get look so good most suppliers I've dealt with vaccuum seal their shit and say it's dense because its primo hydro and anything thats not dense is bush and shit people have no idea bout shit they think hydro is always better than outdoor and worth 400 an o over 250-300 for bush retards have no idea, they fail to realise the best shit they ever smoked was probably outdoor grown and just told them it was hydro so they'd pay more.

I've seen some Dirt weed people have packed nice & asked top dollar for. I laugh when I see the grower has put the bud in a plastic bag before vac bagging. People never get a chance 2c it. It serves no purpose - once the oinkers see the vac bag in ur boot I'm pretty sure the Jig is up.
One of the best smokes I've ever had was Outdoor. It was grown really well using Organics, flushed, trimmed, cured etc It tasted Wicked & had me off my Tit's. It comes down to the quality of the Strain & skill and care of the Grower. I think people think about a plant that was randomly planted, neglected & not trimmed when they think about 'Bush'.
On that same note I've seen people try & pass of some Shit as Hydro that I wouldn't even make Hash out of!

That's a solid effort Jimbo, did u keep with the original 1800W?
I would hate to get Busted the day ya chop. If you harvested 4p it would weigh @ 20. Which is more than the Commercial Quantity & takes u into the Trafficable Quantity, which is harsher punishments again..
Tho the same amount of bud still on the trees will land u a good behaviour bond.. (At least in this case - given the fact there is only 4 ladies)..

Ive spent thousands with them as well, not 1 piece of equipment ive purchased has been faulty or arrived in bad condition, its always mickey mouse. If your in Vic and dont want to purchase over ebay, the best and most price competative shop/store i know is Urban-Hy, Jay the owner is former CEO of Holland Forge, major importer of Hydroponic equipment, he still manages there repairs, parts & service area, he is a qualified horticulturist, very experienced, lots and lots of knowledge, Ive been to alota diff stores across melbourne and its worth heading to Urban-Hy.
