Aside from that I get some more money on Friday so I will be looking to buy my new Odor-soc and fingers crossed my new reflector, If I can't find the reflector I want either at my local preferred hydro-store or a shop an hour away by car, then I will bite my lip and pay the high price of the Sun Systems one at £140.00 it seems hella expensive but promises a super bright 4 X 4 light spread and I only really need it to be 2 X 4 so WISH ME LUCK :) I still need to drill my Perspex and apply the tint to my CCTV screen cover, and do some wiring, all going well this should be a good few days of hard work followed by a good few days of pics etc to upload :) - STELTHY :leaf:

Ok I have a few updates :) in this pic you can see I have now added a long 6" Odor Soc to the 90 degree elbow (bottom left), also I decided to hang the stereo from the picture rail at the back of the unit on the wall.....I will later make a door or something to that effect to hide the stuff on the left of the unit :) - STELTHY :leaf:

I needed a pole to help support the weight of the shelf which had started to bend, I went to my local hardware store and bought a nice chrome pole - STELTHY

Ok I am nearing the finish line :) You can see my nice new chrome support pole down the centre and also my green night light is on, I finally finished ALL the wiring - yawn! lol, and since the air pump is now hooked up I decided to START!!!!!!!!!!!! I mean I can upgrade my reflector anytime now and all thats really left to do is sort out some light leaks now the shelf has been straightened So on the the LEFT we have good ol Jack Herer, and on the RIGHT just normal Tomatoes (just for fun) Next I will be buying some quality seeds and the reflector oh and a decent memory card so I can take some more nice pics to upload instead of the wanky ones with crap quality (few above) I thought I may as well grow summink for now and then at least every thing will be ship shape ready for my super beans when all is done :) - STELTHY :leaf:

Nice Stealthy!!

Did you already have the Jack Herer then? We just recieved our new Beans and our choice was called Blackjack. This was crossed with Jack Herer and Black Domina I believe. One of the reasons we picked it was because it was crossed with Jack!! LOL

Anyway nice work and someday I could use about 40 hrs of your time to train how to do some of the things you have!! LOL Very Very well done man!!

I Hope you are as impressed as everyone else is!!

Always Watching

This is from my last grow, in my old smaller cupboard, Jack Herer is the one on the right, she was BIG :) I had a few seeds left over so I thought I may as well use them before I go and buy the expensive "SHARKS BREATH & ALEGRIA HAZE" But JH does as you can see by the pic do very well! and now it'll be under HID/MH/HPS lighting instead of CFL and LEDs it should produce monster buds :)
Black Jack does sound like a nice variety, post some pics if you like it would be good to compare the 2 :) If you ever need a hand just ask, I'll be happy to help, if I can :)
I gotta say now its all coming together quite nicely and the list of things left to do is short I am happy with my work and look forward to posting my 1st journal (beginning soon) I will simply continue the journal as a part of this thread :) - STELTHY :leaf:

I plan on getting the timers and the Ona Block today so thats 2 more things I can cross off my list :) I also need to make sure my Thermostat is set up correctly because night temps dip as low as 12oC at night, once the Bar heaters have new fuses etc the heat should stay around 26oC at night give or take a couple of oC Another thing I was contemplating putting in there is erm....Heaters for the res tubs I am guessing the type you use to keep fish tank temps consistent and warm? And I am not sure how warm the res water should be I am guessing less than the actual growroom so maybe 20oc..I dunno... I'll look into that :) - STELTHY :leaf:

Ok so I looked on http://www.growell.co.uk/pr/48/Dispelling-Some-Common-Hydroponics-Myths.html and this is what I got for Res water temps :) [Water temperature – Your nutrient solution should feel COLD at 21oC NOT WARM. 21 degrees centigrade is the ideal temperature, it’s warm enough to stimulate good growth while cold enough to be able to carry the maximum amount of oxygen (O2) for our purposes. As the water rises above this temperature the water can carry less and less oxygen.]

So I guess 21 oC, it is! My next step is to locate 2 well built good quality water heaters, Hopefully they wont set me back to much I'll look into that now :) - STELTHY :leaf:

Hi dude, I think the best thing to do is only use them in the last couple of weeks before harvest, and build up from 5 mins gradually to 30 mins use in those last couple of weeks and use them on their own straight after your main light turns off (make sure you don't over expose the plants to this type of light as it WILL kill them!) but used in small doses ie (5 up to 30 mins) will increase THC levels heavily :) Cheers for the REP man! let me know how you get on with the Reptile CFLs oh Ps/ Dont expose your skin to UV-B for long periods of time because for humans it promotes CANCER .....NOT COOL!!! Hope this helps - STELTHY :leaf:

These are the 2 new ONA blocks I bought earlier 10 Quid each one is 'original' for inside the growroom and one is 'fresh linen' for outside the growroom, So what with the RHINO Carbon Filter, the Odor-Soc and these two ONA Blocks thats odor control taken care of :) - STELTHY :LEAF:
