dull as fuck here at the opposite side of the country, il have a look at herbie,s there now, was thinking of planting 5 easy ryders in differant places, the only thing i know about outdoors is that i need to mix dolomite lime in the soil and i need slug pellets and nature does the rest for me. cant be that easy tho,and when i top the big bud im doing next grow i might find outdoor homes for them aswel. if 7 outdoor plants went well along with 2 big bud in the tent could produce a years supply for me.
blue skys, sun shine and igh humidity upstairs here.....;)

there was a young doctor down this way gave 1 of the boy,s auld lad the wrong tabs and they dam near killed him. i agree with kang and keep it herbal as much as possible, but ur obviously in a bad way and need them, hopefully ul be back to normal tomorrow and get plenty of that shanti into ya man
a little smokey, took one this morning with kangs words ringing in my head and been busy but as drained as fuck all day, no energy so didn`t take any more yet, think the dose is too high so got back to them and new perscribtion tomorrow, should be back to myself within few hours, serious drained over them, like a couchlock stone no messing...

First off i am not trying to pick holes in any previous
comments. But here is my opinion FWIW
Sativas are not suitable for our shitty climate. Landrace
Sativas come from equatorial countries. Even using a box
as suggested will not help. Sativas grown outside will
get very big. By limiting the light this way you wll also
limit airflow which will cause mold probs late in flower.
Aside from that, flowering will probably take 3months.
Are you sure you could be bothered to be there at the
same time every morning and evening at exactly the
same time to cover/uncover. If it could be done people
would be doing it. Go buy some decent autos. Save you
alot of hassle.
That's what I figured - tropical strains just aren't going to cut it here. Just as well the little f*ckers never made it past the first set of leaves. I've been doing the autos for the past few years - this is the first year I'm trying feminised non-autos. If this weather keeps up I'll have some serious bushes!!

If you're planting out now expect them to be fucking HUGE by October, even with a shitty summer. A family member grew a few last year in the garden, planted out at the end of June/start July and it got to about 5 1/2 foot...

My advice; top, top, LST and loads more topping ;)

the 4 girls have really filled out the grow space. theyre a week into 12/12 now so theyre stretchin upwards too!.theyre about two foot tall now except for one thats six inches shorter with a really fat stem. do you think i should trim some of the fan leaves. the first pic is lookin directly downwards from the light.

nice looking dave, very nice, on the fan leaf thing theres debate..

energy producer or light blocker is the thread but to me i`d trim some of the major light blockers, not mental chop but the three or four you really need gone...

looks great dave! i wouldent chop the leaves but bend them out of the road if you really must

We care ae!! we care

i could never get the hang of bending them out of the way, always managed to snap the branch or bend unsucessfuly and they would return to the previous spot or just shy of it like...

thanks for the advice, i cant seem to thank posts. i think i might tie the leaves to the stem so theyre pointing upwards slightly, if that makes sense. i think they have to be be affecting air circulation too with all the space theyre taking up. i cant put in an intake fan because ive nowhere to plug it in and also the extra noise!

yeah the noise is the killer give away, you can explain away the odd odour here and there, but the constant noise....



just going over finance here, now ball park to set up a dwc for 4 buckets what would it cost for the nutes and sundries like cal mag etc to get trough it...

even a stab at it so i can do a kind of plan to afford it lads.. its not urgent i`d just like too know..
