Aussie Growers Thread

Mine has a stonking computer fan but thats all it is. I would recommend having the leds/dome sealed from the tub so no need to filter exhaust from light
 
Depending on strains but will need to do alot of manipulation to keep them in there. That set up but should let you manipulate how you like
 
It was going to be basically the cheap compost bins with led light on the lid... Compost bin can be moved from tub to tub... I will actually make it out of metal fencing (the stuff they use for tomatoe climber thingo's) with something lining it...whatever is cheap and practical... Will be doing a scrog so could maybe do a shorter dome thingo.
 
Carbon I mean...the activated kind...

Was maybe thinking of pumping the air outside the greenhouse through a can filter...would also have to draw air from outside as well ipresume.
 
I worked in a place with a faulty o3 generator for a couple of years. It was hooked up in a cabinet for h2o purification... long story short it was disconnected from the unit but not ever turned off. I complained of the smell for ages, couldn't work it out... smells like burnt out appliance or powerboard. Some can't smell it at all but some can get sick at very low levels.

also fucks all your rubber and plastic
 
I was thinking of doing some short little autos in the ground in a few tubs/barrels (hint hint shannon), just need a good spot. I reckon they'd do a'ight in there and stay short, outdoor sog
 
ahhh man i miss all the action now im back at work. u boys stay up too late for old pops over here im out by 8:30 because i gotta get up at 4am every morning.

snipped off a nice nug of the buddha this morning too. a nice halfway mark sampler. i know it sucks to chop em early but there is so much and it really is looking too tasty these days all sugar coated and sweet smelling i couldnt resist, cant wait till its dry.

also ordering my mr dmister tonight fuck yeah then i can stop stressing.

or maybe not i think the vk is going to have a gnat problem. i had about 3 gnats flying in there the other day i zapped em with fly spray and they have not come back but by all reports 1 gnat lays 200 eggs and i should be expecting to see them flying around in about 2 weeks time. so that is going to be the next thing.

if the vk gets gnats im almost certain the buddha will too. just how dangerous are gnats?
 
Thanks for your advice fellow aussies. Given me a bit to think over now. If anyone knows where to get some blackstar led's in Aus lemme know otherwise im lookin at an extra 110 for shipping :(
 
you have prob heard it a million times before, but unless your rich don't even worry about LEDS. you will most likely end up with airy buds or some other problem. go the HID route, can get a way better setup for a lesser cost. last time i looked up LED costs it was way over $1 per watt basically so the 1000w was over $1k. i wouldn't mind them for side lighting or something. but not as the main source.
but do what you like in the end, only say this because i think ive only seen maybe 1-5/100 good led grows and i also wanted to go the LED route till i saw all the stretch and airy buds.

start neeming now! TBH I often have a couple of gnats kicking around without problem but miyagi hates bugs! Only once did I let it go too far and it was a bitch to get rid of them. With other bugs I often see symptoms first, then find the bugs but gnats don't seem to worry my plants too much, just me. They can be a big prob tho
my hyj grows faster than bugs can wreck it but in soil some gnat species can eat your roots and you don't know why the plant is dying. Often they are a sign of too much moisture in your soil blah blah blah
 
Thanks myagi does the neem work well? I have heard it aint much chop? Guess there isn't many other options. My hydro store are getting in nilnat but they font stock it yet
