God you dont post here in a few days and your lost! Hope everybody is doing well and loving the weather so far :D thought id give ye an update on my Critical Jack. Shes at day 17 of 12/12 and coming along nicely. Have a feeling i may lose her to root rot as with my Northern Lights :( fucking top chamber of my waterfarm is pooling the water up again as with my NL grow. Getting a sickening feeling about this and not much i can do about it. Do you guys reckon if i turn of the drip ring and just use an airstone in res if it would help the cause?

Here she is so far. stretching like nobody gives a damn!

Haha no worries buddy! nope cant turn it down. asked a few other members and seems that the holes in the top chamber arent big enough for water to pass quickly. So just going to get a new air pump and stick an airstone into the bottom res

have you not got the top chamber drilled with more holes? I've got about 100 holes in there so the water doesn't pool.

As I said on your last grow Jasper, turn off the drip ring, I've only ever used it for the first week or two.

Ya i tried turning the drip ring off but the pump i have isnt powerful enough for an airstone. I knew not buying a new pump would kisck me in the ass! going out tomorrow to get one. Does anybody know if there is any other grow shop around the centre apart from getupandgrow? Bloom and Grow seemed to have moved up north. I didnt have a drill so i had to improvise with a knife. I did make quite a few holes but like i said maybe they weren't big enough :/

It has cooled alright but is more humid but we can't have it every way.
I watched Hangover 3 last night and I didn't think it was great but was watchable

At least the weather is nice for the kids, I don't have any but I can imagine how bored and annoying they would be if inside all through summer with the rain:)

I agree with you on the hangover, it never really took off at all, no missing teeth etc like the first one.

I'm humming and hawing with the van, very hard to find the body parts except for the back lights.
I emailed a few Jap OEM parts dealers for 2 tail lights, wing mirror and back door mirror and a corner piece at the front, no idea what that's called so it's hard to search online for it,anyway none of them had all the parts so the quotes for the 2 lights and wing mirror, the cheapest quote I got was just shy of 600 quid.
I'll need a respray as well so it all adds up.

Do you do the drifting on a track?
Sounds like a nice yoke.

mondello and a few private yards around, on the odd ocassion a roundabout, not the little type you know the big type roundabouts at motorways and that, there the type as there a challenge but your average one is too small to really enjoy being sideways you just can`t get the speed up..

uummm might be a bit small but when and if your selling her let me know, i`d like first refusal at it...

I think it starts around November or at least it did last year can't be too many years left in it I'd say.

No bother RE: van.
