I found some time to make some much needed adjustments to my grow box over the weekend. Let's hope my plants love me for these. Some of you who have been following my thread will remember my attempts to find some method of raising and lowering the plant-base easily to facilitate easier access...

Right on! Let's make sure this time eh? I myself have just moved the 9 biggest plants to bigger pots, that are now in the grow box for the final stretch of vegging. There are also 21 little plants in little pots on the windowsill in the sun! They are my standbys, he he.

As am I, believe me. I have never even so much as seen a non wild-growing cannabis plant before, so you can imagine the suspense as I see every stage unfolding! I have one more day on a rather pressing contract, so I'll soon have the time to finish up some needed mods to the grow-box. I also...

Yeah, I love how she has the shape of a classic chandelier. Classy!

It does have a blackout cover that goes on at night to prevent the neighbors from wondering if a UFO landed in my workshop! This cover will of course also be used when flowering. You seem to be very concerned with that rear window on my box; don't be, the plants love the extra light, even if...

Oh hi Tahoe, nice too see ya buddy. How's your girl doing?

I tried it this evening and had no success. The setup worked fine with just the platform alone, but with all the plants on, it was simply too difficult to raise. I could certainly improve the pulling power by setting up a block-and-tackle type of arrangement, but the mere fact that it is so...

I've been fooling around all Sunday evening, trying to find a way to construct a hoist for the base of the plants. Since the lights are in a fixed position, it is the plants that will be moving up and down as the situation requires. It would also be handy to be able to lower all the plants when...

Yeah, a bit like shutting the stable doors when the horses have already bolted I suppose. I'm only planning on raising either 9 or 4 females in the box eventually, depending on what the box can handle. The rest will go to the garden to become either mommies for cloning, or replacements for any...

Whoa, some wicked bud hangin' from those delectable bushes. You lucky devil, you. Looking goooood mate.

Mmm, hi and welcome. You'll have to be a bit more specific, what are you planning? What are your facilities? etc. Surely you have access to some nice doobie down in good ole Kwazulu Natal, the very home of your friend and mine: Durban poison, he-he.

Just a little update. Last I night I guess I was bored and topped all of the remaining tall plants to bring them more in line with the up-n-coming seedlings. A little rash I know, but there is still plenty of time for them to recover before the seedlings gain some degree of maturity. Besides, I...

Thank you for your interest and kind words. Welcome to my grow!

Yes, there is a window in the back wall which is covered with a pane of bathroom glass - you know to diffuse the direct sunlight and to frustrate any nosy-parkers trying to get a peek at my crop. This window also has mdf covering-panel which can be removed or replaced to return to full stealth...

Oh yes, incidentally, the plants stay under the light when I open the rear window. I am really just adding sunlight when it is available, but the lights stay on 24/0. Still think this will confuse them?

Looking good mate. Thanks for visiting my grow.

Much obliged mate. Let's hope she will be jam-packed with some luuuuurvy weed in a few months!

Dude, I'm gonna take your advice as gospel. I've seen your ladies and they look scrumptious! You serious though? Won't they appreciate the supreme light from old Fiery-one? Must say it will simplify matters if I can skip the whole "opening up and closing at night" bit. It will also keep...

Much obliged mate. I have returned the favor as I really want to see you succeed. What are you smoking at the moment? I really hope it's causing some paranoia, the whole thing with the cops I mean.

They are gorgeous, well done mate.
