Lol, yeah its pretty warm still at the moment, but I will get that sorted in the next few weeks! no real rush so I can take my time making sure I do everything propperly :) but I do have a wicked cooltube and mental fan so with a bit of tweeking here and there there's no reason why its not going to be possible to lower the ambiant grow room temps to around 26oC :) - STELTHY

Hi dude, yeah the cabs coming on fine :) I still need to upload some pics of the modded shelf with the new 10L tubs in it so I'll do that soon as well :) I thought the padded briefcase would be perfect for housing my HID bulbs in! I am off for a mates stag do this weekend... And we're doing paintball.. its well good I've only done it once before but its well good fun :) - STELTHY
 
Hey stealthy I left u a message about ur wires also I see that tape I def would use wire nuts or some dolphin connectors or something along those line. Tape bad Wire connectors good. Trust me I wire things all day at work. To do it right all wires should run into an electrical box and the wires connected inside the box. I know how u like to do things correctly. Your power is not something u want pulling apart. If u don't want to connect ur wires in a box than use the connectors that the wire goes in each end and u crimp the connector to hold the wire in place. Again no tape. If u do wire in a box then u can use wire nuts. Sorry if I'm wearing u out with the tape thing but I see it all day at work when peeps use tape things tend not to last very long. Thats when I get called out to fix it. Anyway looking 4ward to the new pics!

Lol ok I thought I knew what I was doing but now I am confused again... In the US people only wire things with 2-core? but here in the UK am I correct in saying I should be using 3-core throughout ? I'll take some pics of the inside (connections) etc of the switch and the bulb holders etc.. As I really want to get this step done today please reply with help, pics and or diagrams for UK wiring of myy stuff in the above pics HELP = GOOD REP! cheers - STELTHY

Hi dude I have a few up-dates although its been a very busy week for me, decorating etc etc... I hope to have some tim e to myself either later today or tommoz so I shall up date my thread then :) it is taking a while granted.. Oh ps I ve bidded on cctv for my cupboard so I dont have to open the doors to check on my ladies progress :) hope your grows going well - STELTHY
 
Hey stelthy! Rather than cctv, why not install a Green CFL? That way you can open the cab, in the dark and look in on your girls. Plants don't see green so it's still dark to them.

peace
