I hate that cunt.

What plans do the SNP have? I don't keep up with Scottish politics.
i used to be EXTREMELY political but these days its just a cursory glance, the fuckers are all the same although i will say this the snp at least seem as if they genuinally want tae help scotland. scotland is bit like a village compared to the city like nature of england, most of us are by nature socialists and i think theses guys are our best chance at the moment....up here there really is only two choices...labour or snp....labour have become mistrusted, mainly due to the fact they had to take it up the ass fae the multi national corps that dominate london/england , we dont suffer so much from that. the lib dems had acretain support, mainli in the north of the country but after there lick spittle/back tracking behaviour of recent. there fucked as aresult, we dont trust them anymore either, and we scots can hold a grudge. as for the tories......they will NEVER EVER EVER be back in scotland, we suffered from englands constant obsession with there nazi like attitude to politics. i would personally raise arms against any attempt from those cunts to rule my country. I FUCKIN HATE THEM with a passion i can barely articulate..and i'm not joking, ....my dad, grandfathers and uncles were all coal miners and we will NEVER forget or forgive what those fuckers did. i cant even discuss them i just go fuckin mental at the thought..... i would serve the rest of my life in jail, i would give up my friends and family , i would accept never seeing my son again and would even sacrifice my life if i could rape, torture and murder margaret thatcher, i would anhilliate her family rite down to her grandchildren and any even distant relative. i hope they all dies of bowel cancer screaming and shitting there own beds. I WOULD BE PROUD TO CUT EVERY TORY THROAT IN THE LAND. NO EXCEPTIONS.

I'm not from a mining community, neither is my family, but I can still understand your hate though. Closing the mines pretty much destroyed every mining community throughout the uk. Sent tens of thousands into poverty.

it totally decimated my home area, its never recovered, my own home town had a population of around 6000 when i left school in the late 80's. there are now less than 2000 and most of them are just pensioners that will never leave. a few guys got jobs on the opencast sites that now ring my area but it a very small percentage. it makes me laugh like fuck when i hear every1 whine about the recession we're now in....we've been there since the late 80's!! at one point my home area had the highest unemployment rate in the u.k...above that of brixton, toxteth and other inner cities. the whole of my generation got shafted, by the tories, to fund the yuppie south east england...dont get me wrong im not anti english, i lived in england myself for a couple of years and ive worked and travelled throughout it but if london and south east exploded i wouldnt bat a fuckin eyelid..aafter the tories the group i hate most is those fenian cowards the IRA but if they had managed to wipe out the tories at brighton i would fly a tricolour and wear a celtic top on the anniversary of it...the south east has sponged off the backs of the rest of the uk for decades if not centuries....anything south of the watford gap can get tae fuck....and ive not even started on scottish oil!!! the only fuckin country in the WORLD thats got poorer since it struck oil. its fuckin oil!!

Alrite boys, hate to just barge in on a thread like but I have a few questions that I really need answering concerning strains, and some of you guys have grown pure ganja in ur time. I'm looking for a Potent strain, that's not gonna stink my flat out too badly, inb4 someone says Northern Lights, it's a stable strain and it's not bad like but I'd like something a little more exotic. Smell is the main factor here, I can top it and use Scrog to help keep the height under control, and CO2 filters and non neg ionisers and that to sort some of the smell out, but I'll be living in tower apartments so I can't be growing any Cheese, blue venom or anything thats gonna stink through the grow cab, my room, the kitchen and then through the front door.

Cheers 4 ur time boys, I'm still a bare newb and really appreciate ur help.

a decent carbon filter will work better as well, as long as you keep a negative pressure at all times you wont have to worry about stinking strains.

Guys I could do with some help please. I've germinated three lots of seeds but can't get them to grow, don't know what I'm doing wrong.

I'm getting 100% germination in 24-36hr using the paper towel method. Using various seeds from Attitude. Then I'm potting them up into a moss peat, vermiculite & perlite mix. The problem is that from there they just don't grow.

The first batch I had in a humidity dome under 200W CFL, temp about 30C. A couple of the seeds made it up the surface in about 6 to 7 days then did nothing, I found they hadn't grown any roots so I thought I'd over-watered them.

Second batch I did the same but less water, after a week they hadn't grown much either, still no roots and looked a bit shrivelled too. I thought maybe they needed more light.

For the third lot I ditched the dome and put the pots directly under the light with a fan to keep the temp about 30C, I kept the soil just moist, not wet and not drying out either. Same result, after about a week they had only just made it to surface and then didn't grow, when I touched them they just fell over - no roots, see pic.

I think the problem must be the medium or the water, I'm using mineral water, see pic of label. I tested the ph of the water, see litmus on the right. Then I tested the ph of of the water after draining through the medium, see litmus on the left - too acidic?

Any ideas what's going wrong?

I'm thinking of changing to normal potting compost and tap water (left to stand for 24hrs). Is this a good idea? I've got some sharp sand to add for drainage if that helps?
Update for you all - I started a fourth batch of three seeds on Mon, they germinated and I potted them up on Tues using reg B&Q potting compost, sand and tap water. By this morning all three were healthy looking seedlings about an inch tall above the soil with opened leaves. None of my previous seeds got this far even after two weeks in the pots. Confirms there was definitely a serious problem with the medium / mineral water I was using before.
I'm going to get some biobizz tomorrow, how long before I should start the nutes?

A good few weeks. I tend only to give my plants their first feed when they tell me they need it, paling and such, i try, and often fail, to plan ahead so that my seedlings can take as long as they need, so many many failed new growers because they wanted it to go as fast and big as possible, and it so often goes so wrong :D
