Got a question for a friend of mine, he wants to grow but needs to set up the wiring and all that, but where can you get individual light sockets in the UK? I found mine lying about in the cellar but I'm using them all. Thanks.
b and q or any hardware store will supply them mate.

In an article in 2003, he wrote that cannabis had been "incorrectly" classified as a dangerous drug for nearly 50 years and said it was one of the "safer" recreational drugs.
so the new guy defo seems to have his head on straight (like proff nutt) so let's see just how his opinions and beliefs on the subject get twisted and manipulated by the home secretary and such.

this could be a good thing though. hell, first party to state that they will look into the reclassification and genuine dangers behind pot, well they get my vote :P

hell if they legalise it maybe we could all get jobs as grow consultants, or even better quality control testers.

haha, we'd have the industry pre-coprnered.

maybe that's why they're so hesitant in making it legal, because they'd know shit and we'd already know anything and everything they don't :D we'd take over the country! maybe! :lol:

guys much as everyone thinks it should be legal it will put you and me out of business for real. look at california its everywhere fdd is a medical grower and he cant shift his grade A product.

id like to see it downgraded to a slap on the wrist for up to an ounce possession. keeps the vietnamese gangs under the cosh but the likes of joe grower out of the dock.

even if it was legalised the stuff you would be able to buy would be like budweiser, mass produced tasteless shit with no character or flavour, fine if u just wanna potter about with a joint hangin out your face but if u wanted a serious smoke thats gaunna blow the top of your skull off you'd have to go lookin for the more experienced grower that specialises in sumthin a bit out of the ordinary, the grass would go down the same route as the hash, fuckin full of shit in it and take you 3 hours of constant smoking to get a decent effect.

i disagree, the only way it would become legal would be medical use in which case it would go down the dispensary road like california the clones and shit they sell in those places would knock your fuckin eyes out.

all the clone onlies are available in those shops n all you need is a fucking prescription for #RSI or insomnia or some other bullshit.

just look at amsterdam the original place weed went legal. do you see the coffee shops selling shite there!?

you could be right don although i get the feeling that any sorta legalisation process that may happen in britain would involve the government only licensing the huge pharmacutical companies to produce thereby allowing the cunts to sell the rights to the highest bidder, our governments, labour or tory, are so wrapped up with big business they would be salivating at the prospect of screwing more tax money from us, they wouldnt want the riff raff like us doing it, of course this would fired through the press as 'being for our own good' and as they wouldnt be able to 'criminalise' us they would make up horror stories about people dieing after smoking 'unlicensed' weed grown by 'amateurs', same sorta shit as the brewing and tobacco industry i imagine.

Hi i have an idea as to Y-splitters for CFLS in the uk, can any pros clarify it for me?
to begin with you purchase a uk extension lead and enough usa to uk plug adaptors to fill the lead then order the same amount of CFL Y splitters over the net from america, plug everything in and tadah a cfl lightstrip ! would it work? + rep for help would help me decide on my grow.

Not sure about that buddy, are uk and usa bulbs the same, or would you have to buy usa clf'c to fit the usa y adapter's. All you need to do is buy a couple of t5 floros and use normall light bulb's.

Just been looking for ya fella, yes it would work. You would have to buy EDISON SCREW light bulb's, not the usuall push in and twist. You can buy EDISON SCREW light bulb's from anywhere (b&q, asda, home depot, they are all over). +REP please.
