those solar things are a ripp off 80w panel 100ah battery woundnt run a 400hps for more than a few hours after dark

you could make a 200w or like what i made, two or three polycrystalline 24v 240w pannels with 300 ah 24v battery system,

it runs one light on 12/12 for a while, they really only work best when the sun is out, otherwise they give up 6 - 8 hrs after dark

plus in the morning after you been using it,, before you use it,again,, it needs a couple hours off to recharge say between 9-11/12

Or have a locked room for your bondage escapades
a guy around my area got pegged like that. During an inspection the agent asked why one of the bedrooms was locked and he jokingly said “it’s my sex dungeon, I’ve got a girl locked in there tied to the bed”. She left but 2 hours later the coppers turned up to conduct a welfare check on the girl tied up in the bedroom only to find his grow setup instead.

Ohhh yea..... How much are they and what sort of power output do they have?
I have a feeling a quiet diesel generator would be more reliable. Yes you’d have to pay for a bit of diesel but you wouldn’t have to worry about it running out of power because it’s a cloudy day :roll:
I have an inverter generator brought online for camping it’s quite as and cheaper then a battery setup. I was going to get a dual battery or triple battery for the 4x4. It runs the camper aircon and fridge (big bar fridge) plus accessories

I wouldn’t mind one of these bad boys either

he didn’t think so but anybody who’s heard the story thinks it’s hilarious.

the best part is it’s housing commission so alls he had to say is it was his bedroom and keeps it locked for privacy reasons. No right to look inside private areas unless you let them in nsw.
Yea he sounded a bit cocky....

I’ve had a bloke come up to me on a camping trip and say if you think your running that thing all day you’ve got another thing coming make sure it stays off. I said it is running you fucking hero don’t believe me put your tongue on the exhaust.
There was a radio going but not loud just background noise. He walked over had a look shook his head and walked off.
You get one on every camping trip

Fuck yeah that’s quite, be able to run it at night without keeping everybody awake. What’s tosser but. I would have told him to fuck off even if I was running a 7kva diesel genny. If you don’t like the noise from someone else’s camp go somewhere you can’t hear them.

Ask if you can build a 3x3 garden shed for you “tools”.
Not a bad plan. They dont have to know all the details although how would i go about power, pay an electrician to run a direct 20amp circuit to it or run some extensions cords in some conduit undr ground so me mutts dont chew it to peices?

Yea that’s what got me puzzled. I haven’t been mixing my nutes right beside the plants and am feeding at half strength max.
Makes sense with the fly shit jimy! Have had quite a few flies on my plants.
As long as it’s not caterpillar shit in my buds, I spose it can’t do much harm.....?
Yea nah not sold on the fly shit though unless ya got some monster flies gettin round.. Fuk the caterpillas off though found me mrs brocolli plants riddled in them, i thought about pourin fuel on them an burnin it all down but i threw the lot of them in the bin instead

Have you seen them flying around?
It does look like it. I noticed it on your original pics from a few weeks back, that definitely looked like it yeah?

That new growth necrosis you had / have was different, and a sure sign of broad mites. Didn’t you have the glossy top new leaf indicator of them a bit also.
Yea sure did an every thing pointd to broad mites nothing else i could find suggested it could be anything else apart from the odd leave that lookd like thrips but theres a good chance they were both in there havin a crack. Havent had any problems that look to caused by brd mites latey. But this plant that has the few thrip like damage has also got some leaves that are cuppin sorta thing not sure if related bit no doubt they are didn get any pics as i removed them straight away. Dont think i have seen any thrips gettin round but its a jungle so bit hard to spot everything

Does anyone know what this is on my outdoor plants? At first I thought I’d spilt a little nutes on a few of the leaves but I’m starting to find it on a few more plants....
Is it spilt nutrient water or bug excretion maybe??View attachment 4475082
Try a process of elimination:
Are your plants under any trees, or plants higher than them? If so look for an excretion from them, like a sap etc..

Does it rub off reasonably easy? If so does it leave a mark like it’s eaten into the leaf surface? What does it’s consistency feel like? Is it isolated to a common height on each plant?

Sap / excretion from nearby plants?
Bird excretion? Unlikely though.
A form of fungus.?

Just thinking out loud.

Probably both mate, and with your neighbors situation who knows what you’ve got buzzing around your plants.
Leaf cuppin? Like canoeing?
