If we can sort a trade in January or so when the crabs here are running hard ill be up for that bro.
Pretty sure greyhound or stateliner still take foam esky of stuff like that from place to place
U in Queensland?
Don't worry about sending me crabs I would love some new seeds if you have some spares. And yeah for sure I can send them in a foam esky with dry ice on the bottom. If I have a good run of crabs coming up I'll pm you to get your address

Anyone got any expirience with spider mites?? Just found a pretty solid infestation on 3 of my plants :(:cry: im gonna buy some pyrethrin and neem oil today
Azamax is a really good one but Eco neem will work hit them with neem than 3 or4 days later hit them again after that weekly till you start to flower or is your not worried about a bit of chemical pesticide get something with Dicofol or
Spiromesifen
as the active ingredient but they are toxic so use some gloves and shit

The major problems with tents is there’s no insulation,ceiling height depending on which lights are being used,access to the plants. For a veg space maybe they could be a good idea but a if you did a stud wall with foam insulation and panda film fixed directly to the frame no cladding would be needed would allow you to build the size room you need and it’d be very close if not cheaper per m3 than tents and a jerry can of petty and a lighter will get rid of it pretty quick in an emergency;)
If using tents you would really have to insulate the whole space, even with ac its money well spent and not hard or time consuming to do.
I'm usless at building shit with timber. I could frame up ok but door jams etc ? Forget about it!!!. lol.

If it was me (and its not) id insulate the walls at least. Have two flower tents and one veg tent and a cloning space. Maybe also a mother room tent. Harvest a tent every month. AC on auto, sealed room and CO2 and that generator you mentioned earlier is a must IMO. One long power outage and ur grow is fkd.

I spose everything also depends on the power on this property to

Some decent sized tents available

The shed is powerd and I have a small geny to run a few lights if need be. It's all pipe dreams for now but if myself or the old boy move into the property it will be going ahead. He already owns said she'd and his mate owns the property

Awesome bro
I have some specials locked away of awesome genetics that are regs
Depending in how much you trust me :) when I say these are proven strains and not really any negative pheno from what I've seen
Not much I have of fems at the moment prob 50 odd seeds but only one or 2 of any one strain
Could still find something

When you are talking generators for a grow bigger is always better,if I was getting one for a 10 lighter I’d be budgeting about 18-20 grand it’s a fair whack but it’s under 1/2 of a harvest from that many lights.

It’s also a bit of a red light having a dramatic increase in power in a short period of time,and if it’s got the new smart meters they record how much power your using at all times so they can pick 12/12 and 18/6 cycles
they have those new smart meters in Aus? I didn't know that...they may need a good sparky....

The shed may have power but is it enough power for the draw ur going to create.
It has 3 phase.15 amp and normal plugs. But I would prefer to use less energy hence the led option. If I use 10x 900w led lights actual draw 300w I would only be pulling 3000 instead of say 8000 or 10000 from using Hps

But you’ll yield about a third aswell
