I know I had to do mine on my own mate was a fucking nightmare, I had the boards pre cut to 2x8 and delivered, was a headache from start to finish, wish I hadn't had bothered now but lesson learned, I hate doing things half assed but thought it was the best way to go just incase the worst ever happened, for time and stress invested I should have just gambled and done it properly it would have paid 10 times over by now. I fucking hate renting mate the house I'm in now would be great if it were more secure for the long term but sadly it's not so I'm gonna stick to one of the spare bedrooms and save myself the stress I think.
An attic grows just a pain in the arse if u ask me anyway. The attic I grow in is at a m8s I just use a spare room. If there goina come knocking there goina find it anyway so if u got a spare room best just use it

Aye that's the job only thicker, or u can buy the kingspan and plasterboard seperate, that's 2 in1 sorta thing lol
i honestly havent got a clue when it comes to diy. im basically a tool maker but havent got any paper work to prove it and a dumper driver lol. im hoping to buy this house off the council when i get a tidy job again. the last start i had only lasted 7 hours. i dont mind paying more to get it done tidy because i can spread the cost over a year or more if i have to and i cant ever see me giving up smoking green. i hate drink so theres not much else for me to do.

i got 3 kids so no spare room lol. i got my tent taking up half of my bedroom that the reason i want to get the attick done out. i just want to make sure im not giving the choppers a big glowing sign

Couldn't agree with you more mate, I only went down the attic route because of the misses, she saw it as it used to be my job so I can do it at home lol I tried explaining to her it would be hard work controlling temps etc the way I'd have to do it but she wanted me to try just so she could say I had tried? fucking nutter cost me months of headaches but the things we ddo to keep our other halfs happy huh, atleast now she knows it's either gotta be done properly which will cost or stay in one of the bedrooms and now I can say I tried the way she wanted to so balls to trying again, even though it would only be a day or twos work she knows I'm done with lugging water up ladders and she can't moan at me now so was sort of worth all the headaches.

It sounds like it would be a worth while investment for you mate, my attic is tiny but if it was big enough and we were guaranteed we could stay here for a few years I'd probably get my arse in gear and do it properly, when you speak to your family members about starting the job get them to ask about there's a factory unit up by pontypool somewhere I think that sells kngspan and off cuts very cheap, I thinks it's because most of it has been damaged a little, top of the pallet stuff but it won't make no odds as you won't be looking at it mate.

Anyone had any experience using triacontanol? I have just bought some from eBay thinking of using it alongside Dutch pro a+b and explode. I understand it is the main ingredient in can a boost. So I'm hoping for a bumper harvest. Any input would be greatly accepted.

Claw like leaves can also be nitrogen overdose as you fed them Ph 5.2 which will make your plant take up more nitrogen but will also lock out most other elements. If you got red stems as well it will be nitrogen.

Nah stems are green, the leaves aren't dark green so i don't think its nitrogen abundance, ill just leave it to dry out and see what happens.
