right so i have found where all the water on the roof is comeing from... its leaking, the surface of the top is degraded and pitted so water is sitting on it, and its not a good slab to start with, os until the resin is got and the weather allows for it too be spread on the top surface i think i`ll have to batton it and cover it in polythene or something cheap like that, i found it by drying the roof with some rags and knocked some loose stuff off quite by accident and noticed the drip drip from there on, got up on the wall and had a look at the spot that was leaking and there was a small puddle there...

so at least the venting must be ok and i can relax on door open door closed room open room closed etc, as its like haveing a small sun in there, as most of you lot know these bulbs are mega bright and my shed sits on the "dark" side of the street with no other lights about... talk about obvious...

i opened the door one eve with my room open too and it was just dark out, well i lit up my whole yard hahahahaha...

no hasstle buddy, i`m sitting here like i have ants in my trousers watching the door of the shed... watching trichs more like... there changeing so fast, along with the red hairs .... and i`m hopeing upon hope they stay on track for the sunday chop, have no smoke and i won`t even take a bud to quick dry as it upsets me how small they shrivel up too when ready that way..

so drying lads, what works for you.. i`m thinking a big cardboard box, the likes of a fridge box, chest sized even, some dowels through the bottom to hang plants on and a fan for air circ, leave it in a room against a rad for warm air every now and then.....

its my only real option, as small gaff, and kids it has to be out of sight, so once in the box they wouldn`t even bother with it, and i figure the rad would help dry, so say a week hanging and a few days in brown paper bags with some paper layers between buds for few more days and then jars???

haven`t got a good enough attic, it would be cold and damp well for the plants anyways, and shed has grow room, all rooms are other wise occupied so again its my only real shot...


and save another post, i`ve noticed these lot don`t stink like the last, it could be the temp and they do smell lemmon up close and are just as sticky etc, just wondering if other shed or outdoor growers notice that the cold affects the smell from the plants, and how do you find the cold affects the change in the trichs, cloudy to amber ratio...

i did read a couple of threads awhile back on the cold water while finishing to get them to flip amber quicker or somethng to that affect...

I made a drying box and just ran some tape around the top for strenght and put a row of holes along top, where the tape is. then tread a string trough holes like lacing shoes. u can get alot in a large box, add hole on bottom and fan.

I found a bastard spider on one plant today making a web, really small thing, like a speck. He get swiftly crushed with a pen, which brings another worry to my mind, pests! I have never dealt with them before, and hope to not have to but soil brings them unfortunately. Let's hope for the best!

yeah that seems to be my only option at the min bud, going into brown paper bags and into the hot press for a few days after the box..

86 i used a cardboard box for drying for awhile . I had a little computer fan attached to it to circ the air really handy for dryining . But i have gptten a dryin net since then it has nine tiers on it. iv dried up to 15oz on it dont think anymore would fit on it It cost me 25e but it was well worth it.
Do u find chopping to b a painful but enjoyable job ?
My back do b killin me for days after a harvest . longest i spent chopping was 12 hours it felt like 4ever

i like it at the start, about half way through it gets like work, but then at the end it gets good again, and thats depending on the amount youhave to do, like a hugh plant a scrog or a few small ones etc...
