I've grown a few times few years bk but going solo now. Bought new loft tent 1500x1500 looking to grow 10 in there. Got a rhino carbon filter wanna know do I need something to take fresh air into tent aswel? Never known much about humidity and how I control it etc?? Growing under a cfl 1st 2-3 weeks veg but I've recently read a lot about this gas programme 12-1 5-1 I wanna know is this actually better. Also nutes wats pretty easy to start I've been told by some reliable friends that I can get a £200 package goes from start to finish using canna a-b . . Sum1 has since said a loft is an awful idea. I have. 1800x1800 concrete shed attached to my house it's watertight but I'm worried the British cold weather wouldn't be suitable. Cheers. My tent would fit snug in shed and only 1 small window and vent so easily blocked up

anyone remember Pogs? The rounds cardboard discs that u hit with a plastic or metal slammer to see who won the most that flipped upside down?
I had some wicked metal ones as a kid in the very early 90s even ones shaped like ninja stars lol u could do some damage with them if u wanted, probably why they not around anymore deemed a heath and safety hazard lol

So yeah this story..........


I'm about 6-7 years old in Leeds, going to a catholic state school.
Back then at lunch time the school broke for a couple of hours like half day, you could go home and come back for 'second lessons'.
One morning I've found a 20p piece on the floor, that day mum picked me up at lunch time to go home.
"Mum can we stop off at the shop please?"
"Why?"
I've got 20p to spend"
"Where from?"
"Found it on the floor"
"Ok"

Buzzing, we go to the shop and I get a 10p Lucky Bag and a 10p Dan Bar.
Walking up the road I fizzles a flying saucer from the lucky bag under my tongue and unwraps the Dan Bar.

Hmmm, tangy orange citric saliva fills my mouth.
Slurp...
Chew...
Sticking my teeth together like toffee, nom nom.

All of a sudden, out of the blue.....

"Thwack!" goes the sound of mums right hook slap across the back of my head, with so much force it knocks the Dan Bar clean out of my mouth and into the road.
"You dirty little shit"
"What?"
"You've dropped it on the floor and picked it back up!"
"Eh? No I didn't."
"You did, it had all grit and tarmac stuck to it!"
"Mum it's like that."
"What with bits of tarmac stuck to it? silly sod!"
"Yes mum, It's a Desperate Dan Bar. Desperate Dan from the Dandy comic, he's hard so can eat sweets with bits of grit in it."
"You taking the piss?"
"No mum, it's an orange flavour bar with bits of black sugar rock stuck in it. It's fake"
"Really?"
"Yes mum, but now my Dan Bar has got bits of grit in it because you've smacked it out of my mouth onto the floor"

"I didn't do anything wrong yet got a slap and lost a Dan Bar!"

True story. ;)

Intake is important so your always getting a supply of fresh air in your grow room/tent. Don't worry too much about the temps as the grow lights should keep the place warm, well that is what happens around my place.

I like the canna aqua ferts myself mate, have you used the PK13/14 at the end of flower before?

Yur concrete room sounds purpose built for a grow mate, but your right the about the temps, i think the plants like slightly warm nutirent solution. But you can keep it warm with a fish tank heater.
Some plants might be ok with the cold temps, but under 10 degrees the plants would slow right down and stop growing alltogether. Id guess you might have to keep an eye on humidity levels aswel.
Whats the GAS system? im intrigued
