Hope I didn't offend anyone, I was just curious and that was the name they used in the movie snatch. maybe because in the movie the travellers were irish and most of the cast was english. so if I offended anyone I apologize.


you asked an honest question and i think most on here if not all are wise enough to know that...

muhammed ali was self titled aswell not many say he wasn the greatest,i know nearly everyone thats in knuckle never mind seen it.
mcginley didn even hit him once in that fight,joe joyce boxed the head off him an he was drunk.he was allways gonna get disqualified
look who the referee is james q mcdonagh.a traveller cant be king by default if disqualified it doesn count.too b the king ya have ta knock out the king.
imagine mcginley goin home sayin im the king cause he bit me....lol lol:-P

hahahahaa when you put it like that hahahaha, ah its one of them things i suppose, as for knowing them well it seems were closer than we tought...;) the only part of the bare knuckle i dis agree with is the way its changed from settleing fueds to being about the cash, and theres serious money to be made if your as hard as a coffin nail as them fellas are...


you have to be serious fit to fight for 40 mins to 2 hours as some fights do go that far... and wasn`t paddy dotherty the ref for that fight??? my memory is shit sorry...

What's up fellas? Gorgeous weather the last couple of days eh? Just wondering what experiences you've had with getting pipes here. I've made a few clay ones since moving to Ireland a few years back but I'd like to get hold of a nice glass piece or two. Head shop I knew of in Dublin was replaced by a retarded fucking ugly sweater store and the one temple bar is closed too. Anything online or any shops still open and worth visiting?
If you are in around town go to the top of the top of stephens green shopping centre, there is a smoke/goth shop up there. They have a good selection of reasonably priced bongs/papers etc..

Chris, you have to soak the pebbles in a 5.5 PHish range for a few days before putting them in the farm, otherwise you end up with that problem. It will settle down in a few weeks, just keep on adjusting the ph lower when it rises.

I have been using hydro for 2 years now and it is common for the ph to jump, just check it every day, I try and stay around 5.9 and I use water out of the faucet but really you should be using RO water Reverse Osmosis but then you will want some Cal Mag because there is little to no calcium in RO water but it has no impurities and will keep your ph more stable.

ah so i see where i went wrong there i had my fights mixed up, fair play marley, all is so/so here at the minute but as they say good side out my friend... starting to see some real progress in the grow so i`m happy with that for now, the other shit will sort itself out it always does...

an ass load of raids here, nothing major got but there slowly cleaning out even the small dealers now, think after that copper got shot (god be good to him) they would get the prioritys right and leave the little fella alone for awhile...

Having problems again guys! i think it may be ph related but cant be sure, i am using the plagron royalmix soil and it has ferts for the first 6 weeks and they say not to use any food for the first 6 weeks so ive not been giving it anything other than water ph 6.5, however runoff is 7.2ph and a soil probe says ph is 7.5ph, the bag of royalmix says the ph of the soil is between 6.5 and 7.5,

i am seeing almost like a magnesium deficiency and the leaves of my plants are not as dark green as i would like, one plant is older and bigger and not showing much problem but the other plant is younger and showing the problem worse, its not nute burn as its only started to happen this last few days and the leaves would be dark green if it was nute burn,

so what is it? i have them in hempy buckets and thinking maybe with a little dropping leaves i am over watering but should you not be watering alot with hempy to keep the reserve full at the bottom or do you allow it to dry up between waterings??

was thinking of trying a lower ph water next time but the ph around 7 i dont know if thats the real problem? anyway heres some pics

Oh a little good news too when i bought seeds from herbies i told them i dident want the free regular seeds as i only wanted females and rather than give me 5 shitty regular beans they gave me another free 3 pack of the wos afghan kush x black domina females! worth over 20 quid! plus they gave me 4 other females seeds free carmello and some kind of blue strain so i am set for seeds if i could just get them growing without leave problems,

pics any ideas?
