Hows things mate! I'm in Eire myself and am coming to the end of my 1st grow, very exciting stuff!
I need some help with noise control...
I'm growing hydro and the fan, water pump and extractor can be noisy... check out some pics i have on my page.

nice one!
 
I've heard that autos are not good to start off with because they can turn to a hermmie on you easily.
That's all I know for now, good luck with your garden :)

I've never heard of anyone i know having trouble with them. I buy from a shop where i live and they guarantee the female seeds... they look fine at the minute, flowering now and big and perky!
 
hey man n1 good to meet a fellow Green fellow :) yea it is very exciting stuff im so consumed by future grow i am still at early stage do might make my box in bedroom or attic , il go with bedroom as long as my wife dont mind :) Love ur pics they seem nice and green although i would like to see the leaves reaching up more ? anyway man i couldnt see any pics of ur fan , i wanted to take a look so i can determine what kind of fan box you need , im going to draw the way i make them on standerd type inline fans ,then il scan it and show you , usually i make these with galvonised steel but you can do it with wood same principle just give me time mate i got 3 kids also and am struggling to get time just to log on but i promise i will get a drawing to you might take me few days fan boxs are so good you wont really hear shit man ur fridge would be much louder ,

Collywobbles, I'm using a vectar extractor fan, think it's pretty standard, I have suspended on string, but it's still noisy.
As for your own grow, I just went for the tent, It takes a lot of labour out if it and is easily dismantled/erected. mylar inner coating an all that. It's such an enjoyable experience.

Toker, how old are they? spikes = females, balls = males. any pics?

No not that worrying. Only if we get an unexpected ice age between now and october lol. It's fairly remote where I live. I don't have many neighbors, most of whom are old farmers and the nearest cop shop is 5 miles away and they never come down this way.

Never had one get bigger then 6 foot but one of my plants is past my waist already and I'm close on 6 foot myself. But *touch wood* they're in a really hidden spot. Far from main roads, houses and civilization in general, surrounded by trees, brambles gorse and midges hehe.

Hey great to see alot of Irish. I myself am not Irish and I am from the States.

But I think life is about making friends. And when you go to other countries it is nice to meet up with like minded people.

Any questions fire away and I can try to help.

Back many years ago we used to have people coming from Ireland to be hired hands on the farms, it was great meeting them.

Now most come from South Africa, and fun people they are.

Anyhow welcome.
