Post up a pic dippy. What are your methods too? Lights? My growing is not one to compare too.

Hey mate one step at a time im new to this i dont know how to post pics.. I Grew her from seed (couldnt get clones) starting her in cotton wool and then under 2 flouros them under a 1000w in the Grow room as i said this is my first grow i was able to find a really good grow shop near me in Vic which made things a lot easier but i still have a lot to learn. But i will learn from my mistake's

RS, I enjoy updates on ur girls as much as I like anyone elses
Thanks Street. You should treat yourself to a few beers for the hard work. Tigers13 like i said i am very much a beginner so comparing your plant to mine may be misleading. You are also using a 1000w which is 7 times the light power that i am using. I presume that you also have inline fans etc which clock up the watts too. Posting pics is very easy. Look forward to seeing your plant.

If the website is hosted from another country the AFP couldn't legally force them to do anything. I'm sure the fine people at RIU would rather take to their servers with an axe before they gave up the IP's of RIU users.
Its really easy to find and track IP's from message services such as Skype or Y! messenger but a lot harder to track through websites such as RIU or YouTube. Just in case, I use an IP router and port blocking software to keep my identity safer. Showing people your grows on RIU is by far a lot safer than telling people about it in real life.

Hey dude, things are pretty quiet/grumpy around here.

11 days to harvest but I don't think they'll be ready in time. I used a flowering hormone spray the guy from the hydro store recommended to me for weight, which has caused the buds to produce new flowers instead of making the existing flowers swell. I think its going to need at least another 3 weeks now, hopefully it will be worth the wait/weight. I'm itching to get this stuff harvested so I can move on to re-veg and cloning.
I was flushing the DWC tub for an early harvest and stupid me decided to add just 1 tsp of honey to the 30L of water it holds. 4 days later I checked the res and the roots were suffocating under about a cm of slime. I washed the tub, pump and air stones with bleach and washed as much of the crap as I could off the roots and they seem to have bounced back. I sure as shit won't be doing that again.

Download this and just activate peer to peer, spyware and government blocking.

If your GF plays facebook games it will shit her to tears not being able to play the crap but you can unblock certain IP adresses to allow access to certain sites. You will notice the massive amount of sites from around the world that are scanning your details with every web click. Its great for making bit-torrent more anonymous for downloading "stuff". If you think that the things on your computer are no one else's business then you need something like this.

I also use http://www.hotspotshield.com/ . It has an annoying ad banner and seems to occasionally send me to its homepage/RSS feed.
There are plenty of other ways to re-direct your IP but this is the only free one I could find. It gives me a random American IP address.

Don't allow file and printer access to anything outside your home network. A lot of people have it switched on which could allow a person to have control of your computer. Don't use skype or other messenger programs to discuss growing and stuff, because its easy to track your IP to your local ISP. I use this technique to find peoples online times on a MMORPG I play so I can attack them while they sleep IRL.

And remember any VPN or proxy you use has immediate access to the vast majority of information you send, including logins and passwords etc.

PM box cleared kmoo.

Makes me not want to start growing again, reading stuff like that.

Hello, hello, hello,
Is there anybody in there
Just nod if you can hear me,
Is there anyone home?

Come On
Now
I hear your feeling down
I can ease your pain
Get you on your feet again

Relax
I'll need some information first
Just the basic facts
Can you show me where it hurts

There is no pain, you are receeding
A distant ships smoke, on the horizon
You are only coming thru in waves
Your lips move
But I can't hear what you're saying

When I was a child I had a fever
My hands felt just like
Two balloons
Now I've got that feeling once again
I can't explain
You would not understand
This is how I am

I...... Have Become Comfortably Numb...

Pink Floyd...

So, so you think you can tell
Heaven from Hell,
Blue skys from pain.
Can you tell a green field
From a cold steel rail?
A smile from a veil?
Do you think you can tell?

So I'm gonna hit the pipe and watch the cheesy b-grade sequel to 'without a paddle'

Yo yo. Whats doing people? Am just enjoying my first beer and smashing some ritz crackers with chilli, parmesan and cashew dip and watching my recorded Judge Judy. Its gold i tell ya. The dip that is. Anyone know how long i should hang my pathetic buds? Also there isnt much chunk about them so i left a bit of the frosty leaves when trimming. Is that shit even going to get me stoned or just cough loads??? The reason i ask is i presume that big buds need to hang longer.

Oh and rock it's fine to leave the sugar leaf on, especially if you smoke cones. It makes it harsher and doesn't taste as nice, but it's thc there's no use wasting, so if you don't mind a but lower quality smoke (still better than anything not home grown) then it's all good.

I'm smoking the popcorn off the tiny clones I flowered.. Almost dry after 48hrs and tastes a shite load better than the bubblegum I picked up the other day. Much stronger too :). Booyah for me.
