He just emailed me this mate shall i stil go ahead and order?

Don’t expect too much from the bracket though, it is just a bent piece of metal that in industrial applications would be screwed to a wall and then house one edge of the body of the fan. In hobby use it more often gets screwed in to the body of the fan and simply provides a hanging point as suspending the fan reduces transfer of vibration.

Yeah order it man..We wont be hanging the fan due to height restrictions...Even my fan is mounted as you'll see in my thread this is a much better option in our kinda setup's :) - STELTHY :leaf:

Also I used a jig-saw cutter to cut my 6" holes as I didn't have/couldn't find a 6" hole saw circular blade...So jig saw is the way to go mate :) - STELTHY :leaf:

No mate. Im thinking im gonna cut the holes and line them first, what do you rekon?

Was also thinking if i do it this way i can use the bottome of the big cabs as a template to line the smaller ones?

I feel rough as fook, ear infection and man flu:(

We will get there though. As soon as the mylar drops ill be down wickes for a jigsaw, stapler and adhesive etc then we can get cracking for real.

Was gonna ask you a growing question mate, if i do a scrog do i have to top the plants because as im new to this i want it to be as straight forward as possible.

Also if grown properly can i get 12-15oz of just 4 plants or is it better to have 5?

I think it may be easier to cut the holes once the unit is completley assembled, mainly because its alot easier to see where everything needs to go, This may make it a bit harder to cover but trust me I can sort that out and guide you no end till it fits perfectly :) Man flu is never cool..I am feeling better than the other day not randomly feeling hot then cold anymore but still got an upset stomach :( and answering your question no :) you dont have to top it/them to SCROG I'll add more in fo on SCROG training soon :) - STELTHY :leaf:

Oh and..I got just over 7oZ from 2 ladies, so 4 would be around the 14 oZ mark But 4X plants would be a lot easier to manage and the light will penetrate the canopy a lot better!!! Have you decided on a reflector yet?? - STELTHY :leaf

I havent mate, tbh ill be learning about things as i go along, TBH ill probably just go for whatever you think is best. 600 HPS for flowering and 2 x 125 blue CFL's for vegging. Saying that though i have been thinking of investing in an LED for vegging again, not sure if the results will be as good as CFL though.

Ill have a chuck either Friday or Saturday from my sister so ill get the cabs assembled then. I rekon i will go with 4 plants in each chamber. Was thinking 4 would be easier to manage in a 3ft square SCROG and if done correctly ill still grow enough to keep me going every 10 weeks:)

I normally rush things but im not with this i want to get it right. Im hoping Mylar will be here tomorrow.

These look interesting, wonder if i could use just one of these for vegging 4 plants?

If im right in thinking it would make life alot easier for the vegging cab.


I dont know too much if anything at all about this style of LED its a fair bit of money though...Ive heard that CREE LEDs are the ones to go for I dont know if this unit used CREE even though the diodes are 3W each...You could try them but I would post the question on an diehard LED thread to see what others in that field have to say :) let me know :) - STELTHY :leaf:

Mylar has finally arrived lol, interlink came this morning to deliver the fan stand, because the geezer said it was right at the back of the van and he could be arsed to look for it he would deliver it later lmfao, idle git.

Glossing will be finished off later and blackout blind fitted, big cabs should be up tomorrow then its just a case of going into town on Monday and getting adhesive, stapler and jigsaw etc. Cant wait to get started. Im finally feeling a bit better now as ive felt that bad this week ive not wanted to do anything.

Been reading that LED's are excellent for vegging and if i can get away with a 135-150watt that would make life alot easier and save me some money in the long run plus i like the ideaof not having to control the heat in the veg room.

Im considering maybe using a Kessil H150 blue for vegging. Im undecided if it willenough on its own or whether to suppliment it or get 2. They are pricey though. I like the idea ofno heat issues though and would make life easier for the veg cabinet.

Ill have to sleep on it and do some more research tomorrow.

If one ofm these would do the job for me i would be happy.

Thats excellent news :) Did the dude drop the stand off in the end? They sure are lazy eh? !! lol :) Everything sounds good to me so far.. Its pretty exciting when the wheels are in motion and the build begins, be sure to add lots of pics :) I am happy to go down the LED path for Vegging....I used 2X90W UFOs in my old cab and they were great for Vegging :) and yeah the are alot better to run if you dont want the hassle of cooling the room etc :) - STELTHY :leaf:

Thats the 1st time I've heard of these lights they seem good :) !!! Would it be better to get one BLUE and one PURPLE/RED for a mixed spectrum.. If you can try n find out a bit more about these LEDs from what I've seen so far I really like them :) I'll look about and see if anyones reviewed them yet - STELTHY :leaf:
