Yuo know HeadsUp I think we got a good vibe and like you say, I sometimes click on the New Posts section, and I am just flabergasted by the attitudes and anger in peoples posts. Some people seem to just hover so they can jump on some poor unsuspecting person as soon as they make a comment slightly off centre. It's funny, I think it takes time to get use to forums, my first RIU post was jumped on by some dude/user called Hussain, I just thought, okay, avoid that wazzack on threads. So my sub'd too threads are my sanctuary...

Strictly if I find any reflector gems I will let you know about them. Well 1BMM and HeadsUp, my monthly bills are around 230 euro which include alles. Without my set up it would probably be about 140-150 euro, and I think it's going to go up again. But I can smoke around 40 euros of weed a day so to me it's a no brainer...and it's just like paying for a hobby and getting lots of fun at the end as well! In fact the fun just never ends hahahaha.

Guys, on a sad note, please spare a thought for one of my best friends in Scotland, she starts chemotherapy today and will be fighting off some sort of stomach cancer (they haven't found it yet, just the secondary cancer) It's an aggressive one but the doctors say that they react well to treatment. She is a mother of 2 so needs all the positive vibes she can get, and her and her man are just the nicest couple out. Thanks for taking a min to think of them.

Well it's Friday so weekend is nigh. Weather report in the Dam, light cloud covering but warm, outdoor girls leaves are out praying, so the sun is up there somewhere!!!

Peace out,

DST

Thanks 1bad..
Maybe over done it with rolling pin:) how long to dry it do you think?
I smoke mine as soon as I have pressed it.....a day should be fine if you do want to wait. Using a pressing screen ( I know, some people go on about how much you waste) I just squeeze the water out (or just squeeze between my fingers with gloves on, and hey presto ready to smoke. If you have rolling pinned it out that will be right fairly quickly. Happy smoking Dr G dre.

Dr. Dre, nice haul of the hashish, looks good. As for the bags, the lowest number on your bags, 25 microns, it goes in the bucket first, the last one should be your highest number 225 microns.

Outdoor, I use those reflectors, they are kind of cheap but do the job. Check them out carefully when you open your box. One of my hinges was dinged and the lens would not shut properly, I sent it back, they sent me a new one before I sent the old one back. Actually that's one mistake I made, I should have gotten a larger reflector. When I do get new reflectors I think I'm going with those magnums, huge suckers, he who's name that can no longer be mentioned got the magnums, what a light spread.

DST, will do, I'll try my best to send your friend some mental karma. My dog is up and healthy. I can't take her out for a walk so for exercise I suggested to her she grow up, that should give her plenty of exercise. Off to play some golf for the first time this year mr west, hope to shoot under a hundred, I haven't played in about a year now. We have an 8:52 tee time tomorrow morning. It hasn't rained in weeks, we're looking at rain tomorrow. One way or another I'm going to hit some balls and hit some doobies tomorrow.

The email is "legit" in that it's an official email from RIU, they basically want you to allow them to give your details to a 3rd party advertising company, if you don't, they will delete your account. (everything seems massively ad orientated of late, twitter, forced newsletters from huge ad companies, digg etc, i'm not personally up for that muhc exposure (saw on the twitter thing loads of users journals and such have been tweeted by people that don't even exist in the thread tweeted, i'm a tad confused by it)

yes I got the email, and I just clicked and accepted....if the cops are gonna bust you I really really doubt that they will be using RIU to do their investigations. I believe you have more to worry about if you are busted and they subsequently find your RIU account (like the young guy in the US about a year ago)....otherwise obtaining IP addresses etc without reason i just not admissable in any court.

Thanks HeadsUp and 1BMM, much appreciated. Sheesh, props to your man for continuing to work with 4th degree. My Mum and I nursed my step dad over 18 months with a 4th degree brain tumour...and he went back to work as well! it was all about getting some normality back to him. They said he would only survive a few months, he was in like the top 0.1% of people to survive that long...he was an ex pro footballer and a strong bugger, RIP my man! My friend is also a tuff Glaswegian lass!!!

Same here, I want something other than my cool tube, it does ok, and thats about it. I know my setup isnt perfect, nor will it ever be. I think there will always be upgrades to be made. Crazy you have temperature issues though, I use a cool tube, with a 600 watt hps, and I can get them within 10 inches at least with no burn, I just wouldn't get the spread I need to get light to all of my plants. You should be able to touch the glass on your cool tube if you have it ventilated properly.
Well I say I have temp issues.....82* max.....I just miss the temps of my 400w....not the results tho.......I think my biggest problem is that its a 1000w dimmed down to 600 in a GL120(4x4x7roughly)....curious if a 600w bulb would be cooler??.....I want a new reflector and have been looking at the magnumxxxl like someone mentioned earlier but I think its just too big for my tent..IDK...baby on the way so spending money on more grow supplies is kinda selfish(well...thats what the wifey says)....should be saving money for the litttle one(once again what the wife says)........I know its getting vented well....I have a serious negative pressure in the tent when zipped up due to the 450 cfm exhaust sucking air...my intake is just opening the velcro flaps at the bottom of the tent....outside the tent its 73*-77*.....you wouldnt think heat has a chance to even build up with so much exhaust.....soon as I open the tent to do maintanence it drops to 77* on the dot every time within seconds....I'm rambling....Have a good day RIU

82C sounds fine from everything i've read. Maybe 1 or 2 degrees hotter than perfect, but not enough to harm, my tent was regularly in the 85 area to no seemingly ill effects. From what i've read, and tbh i don't quite understand why, that cooltubes, while crap at dispertion of the light, are the best at cooling the cab down. I don't get why one aircooled reflector would be much different than another of differeent shape but apparently that is the case (apparently :p)

As to your wife, tell her she's a woman and doesnt' have any business sense! :lol: Money spent on grow op now = 5x money brought in in future harvests. Or something like that haha, tell her she could start wearing Loise Vouitton and she'll start nodding uncontrollably

Your ladies are looking very healthy. You must be giving them a lot of TLC.
Well done.

I'm watching your hericles closely, for I have two that are six weeks old and I'm fixing
to take the first clones and you are giving me an idea of what to expect.

:peace:

...baby on the way so spending money on more grow supplies is kinda selfish(well...thats what the wifey says)....should be saving money for the litttle one(once again what the wife says)........
Congrats brother. I say budget a little on the grow. Wifey doesn't want a pissed off papa for her kid because he can't enjoy his hobby to the max. Just be resonable about it. I got one on the way too and am hoping my next harvest will boost the baby account nicely.

DST. I will be doing all the things I can to send out positive, healing vibes to your friend. I'll be sending them to you as well. You are a wonderful, caring friend.

EDIT: Your girl has no right to say anything spending hundreds on a fucking purse. How much is that going to yeild? lol.

Is this the reflector you mean? http://www.htgsupply.com/viewproduct.asp?productID=48150 I like that one, and the price is right too. So the question is would this give me a better/more even spread than a cool tube? I think it would concentrate the light better, The cool tube throws out light higher than it needs to be. I want to have a new hood before my next run, and my cool tube would be put up for use in a future veg room. So I have a good, 6-7 weeks + before the decision needs to be made. Thanks for the info 1BMM.
I have 4 of those htg reflectors. They are awesome. Solid construction and they do throw a fairly tight footprint of light. And they are very affordable.
