(just comented on the uk thread thinking it was this one, wasted lol). got a 1m tent, 600w hps cool tube, 400w mh for veg, air controller and good vent fans, rhino filter. got 4 tiddlers (cut the last one down at weekend) 2x barneys blue cheese, 1x ghs lemon haze and 1x cheese i'm not sure if its big budda but no way uk (mediocre).


getting the uk strain over the next few days (for next time) just harvested 3x blue cheese (big budda i think) at 9, 10 and 11 weeks consec. the 10 weeks was best for me.

growing in 50/50 coco compost with clay balls and perlite for dranage. got my home made dripper system for later on. use canna nutes gonna plant another mediocer cheese in compost and use biobizz. i like my girls having space, could fit more in like u have but want them bushy. have taken the tops of most of them.

i deleted my pics when u's lot was getting a bit worried abut security (www pigs) but i might put some more pics up

sweet man sounds like a good setup you have going man quite similar to mine too.

i just got a deal of blue cheese and was impressed with its closeness to the real cheese, to be honest i wondered if it was cheese not blue i couldn't taste any blueberry to it but i was kanny pished so who knows...

which blue cheese you reckon tastes closer to the real thing?

my tents going to be a whole lot less crowded soon enough 6 dairy queen coming out in 3 weeks should give the rest plenty space and light to get cracking

aye wwwpigs got me a little para too i get para then think fuck it then get para and so forth i wont be posting anything after i move house unless its through a proxy

take it easy man

nah mate its no where near 250 w but its the equivalent to a 250 hps

i could be completely wrong here but i was under the impression thats how it works, like the energy saver bulb you would put in your house lights is like 4 or 12w or somethin an is bright enough to light the same as a 60w!?!?

thikn he just means that he uses a 250w which is enough to do the job without upping the bill unnecessarily (that is a fuck annoying word to spell!)

i think thats right with household items like ur equivilent 100w is 23w in actual terms but i think the 250 enviro lights burn 250w im farly possitive, or it would say equivilent on teh box and big up the actual wattage it burns to sell more.

haha, i'm still a bit unsure. i've just seen cfl's that require seperate ballasts, that require seperate 200w ballasts, and as you say westy, i'd have thought that if a 200w light was only going to use 100w then they'd be pretty active in advertising this to the customer.

i did wonder bout the same thing but thinking about it a 300w energy saver you couldnt hold your hand against it unless you have asbestos fingers
