hey toker whats up your girls look nice & healthy it al what yeah growing?? lt all depends on what size you want them just remember when you but them in flower they grow twice the height.

hey rory thats good to hear im a complete novice but iv learnt a bit from on here i just hope all goes well, i have ordered some maxicrop stuff with seaweed extract and some tomorite seen some good reviews about it so ill give it a go, i started off with 7 seeds but only 6 broke the shell and showed tails, then only 4 sprouted above the soil, then i had 4 sprouted, there was 2 in 1 pot so i split them and ripped the roots off by accident, now im left with 3, maybe it was meant to be as the others could have been (MALE) lol i know your not supposed to be able to tell the sex until flowering but i think i can see like little hairs that are ripe if that makes sense so hopefully the 3 left are fems, also what is a decent height that you would get a decent yield? as theres no point growing to 2 ft if its a waste of time etc

Whats up folks, I think I'm in the clear as far as dealing with a hermie plant, only the top buds were affected and I think it was the calyxes getting burned on the tips making them look like hermy bananas. Well that's a relief, now to get on the home straight and get these buds ripened up!

It's legal to smoke anywhere in spain, and by legal I mean the cops wont hassle you about it as long as you are not acting the bollox.

hows all tonight, deepwinter welcome looks good congrats

my little girls germed apple seeds a couple of months ago, the pink lady apples, i`ve been feeding them veg nutes since they went in soil, the ground around here is weak, glad to say that there now a ft tall whips of bark that are showing bud sites, supposed to be hard to grow these ladys.....
 
No it will only take the mh. plus i would be able to put it above them it would have to beside it. its the light unit. very awkard thing. will take a pic tomorow. have even been thinking of deconstructing my tent and just hanging the light from tbe rafters and just hope that the enviroment in the attic with out the tent will be ok
Hey Jingle, if you live in Ireland most likely your attic is a cold attic, which basically means that there is constent air circling from the out side, if you look up at your soffits you will see a lot of Vents, which lets in a lot of outside, air,

What this means is that the Temperature Range in an attic like this is huge when its cold out your attic is cold when its hot out your attic is Hot.

My own Attic is like this, what i did was build a room in the attic and insulated it to maintain some consistency of temperature,

you can get attic board in hardware shop to go across the rafters if the attic isn`t already boarded, couple lenghts of 2 by 1 , box of 75mm screws, some 6mm ply 10 mm if you can afford it and fire it up there, you prob already have intake and exhaust fans and you certainly have the gummtion about you to get it done ;)

insulation the lot, if your going to do it, make it easy on yourself in the long run..;)

hopefully so 86, this drought around the place is starting to piss me off,i usually smoke about a 3rd a week,so if i get an ounce off each plant it wil keep me going til i get to the next harvest,goin to try scrog 2 sensi big buds next time around and maybe take a couple of clones off them and find a nice spot outside for them in the summer,how long do you have left til smoking your own grade A.these girls are only supposed to flower for 6 weeks so im lookin at 8 weeks til smoking it.cant feckin wait,

thanks trek, i`m well chuffed with the going so far, the cfl`s are doing fine for me, little bit worried about penetration but i never used hps so nothing to compare it to..

i think i made the mistake with to many plants, its a new space and i mis calculted the bush of four plants in such a tight spot, think next time its a scrog with two plants in a smallish screen to save veg thats the end of the blackjacks then its onto rorys seeds, and i`ll journal them, will also have fine tuned the lights to about 800watts
