Waiting on a quote to come back from them. They seem to know what they are on about and first replied to my email with a heap of questions so at least they aren;t just gonna sell me "whatever".

Use discount hydro supplies on ebay ... best prices on quality gear and delivers stealthly... Oz ponics didnt hide the products when i have used them

Cheers... the posts were pretty old, from 2009 so maybe theyve lifted their game. Whats the quality like?
No probs dude. The tent is pretty good quality, the light is a growlush which I've heard aren't the best but it seems to be working well. I just got a different globe from sunmaster instead of the growlush one. The guy there even returned my tent and swapped it for me free of charge. If this other place on eBay is well known to be cheap and have the goods, may be better to go with them :)

What brand tent do you have? I am considering buy a new tent as the one I have i got off a mate and it's a bit big for what I want, plus it fails to be both air tight and light tight. I've always built my own rooms fro scratch and have been a nazi for quality, making sure to be 100% light/air tight. My mate offered me this one for nothing so i thought i'd give it a go. The other thing with it is that it's a Growlush one with the white PVC which i have read are bad for "off-gassing".

How are the hairs looking? To me that looks ready, i dont wait for the trics to go amber generally as i've found i prefer the smoke if i pick it a little early. It's all personal preference though of course. PS, unless you look with a good magnafying glass it is very hard to see the trics colour fully.

And flow master, looking good as... very healthy plant you got there. Love the bulbous look at the stem, pretty much how i do things.
damn pc had some trouble uploading then!! but cheers man, she's gonna bulk up very quickly by the looks. I've got alot of vegetation, some that i may have to clear! my bushiest plant to date, pics don't do her justice one of those pics is looking up under through the canopy towards the 600 HPS, you cant even see through the plant!

What brand tent have ya got Flowmaster, and what size? I'm frantically searching for the perfect tent at the moment. I'm thinking a 1.5x1.5x2m size would be perfect for me and probably looking at a Secret Jardin Dark Room II if I can find one. They seem hard to get hold of. There's also a 1.95x1.95 size that would work as well. I have a Growlush 2.8x1.4 at the moment but i wanna downsize the operation and give myself more space in my shed.

What brand tent have ya got Flowmaster, and what size? I'm frantically searching for the perfect tent at the moment. I'm thinking a 1.5x1.5x2.0m size would be perfect for me and probably looking at a Secret Jardin Dark Room II if I can find one. They seem hard to get hold of. There's also a 1.95x1.95 size that would work as well. I have a Growlush 2.8x1.4 at the moment but i wanna downsize the operation and give myself more space in my shed.
my tent is the old style 'Ezi Tent' ( green & black ) 1.2 x 2.0 high... i wouldn't mind a 1.80 height tent and maybe slightly smaller 1.0 metre square only because of my limited veg time and any room i can save in that tiny grow room is a bonus to me, my fan and ducting hits the roof.
If you ask me look for a tent that gives you good canopy size for your lighting, if you can go 2 plants go 2.0 wide.....1 is plenty and the rest for me ;)
Secret Jardin Tents look really great quality to me, don't go cheap it's not worth it, they rot, the reflective material (if any) chips away and the plastic may give off toxic fumes....get a good tent and you won't have to buy a new one or replace it. I want a new tent as this is my old Mentors and it's been around the bush and no longer has a damn front zip, so i had to glue a velcro strip up the centre. not ideal and i personally hate the idea. good quality zips are hard to come by and the price of the tent will determine overall quality massively!!! chinese crap is every where. BUT there is good chinese stuff, so keep looking, try different search names in ebay, grow tents, 1.2 x 1.2 tent, grow tent, mini tent, alot of names come up and some top quality like to keep inconspicuous. There are hundred to choose from on the Bay.
I've seen tents collapse. It happens believe me!! some people hang 40kg filters off the roof thinking the plastic corners will be ok.....10-15 kg light setup max in my idea of safety...filter on outside and blow through, much more efficient and saves space it also creates a stronger flow around the top of the tent because there is no restriction.

totally up to you when you want to harvest! i think you did ask for some advice though..... whit resin means 'peak potency' some will amber off accordingly once chopped. It is much easier to go too long than not enough. Rule of thumb.... Mould = More mould....

you can always snip a few samples so you can determine for yourself for next time when the best time to pic is. Once chopped and drying, the trichs will change rapidly as their is no more life given to them and they will continue to degrade

Mine's a growlush as well but with mylar. Mine isnt 100% light tight but it does the job for what i need and it only
cost me $80 delivered so was cheap too. I used to build my own too but just didnt have the time to build one this time. Plus the tent
is only small so it fits wherever i want to put it.
