good man, nice to be able to help the folks out isn`t it, i`d like to say i was productive today but had a ball joint to change on a 206, well the stuborn thing wont budge, the nuts frozen on the top of the stud of the ball joint with the ball spinning.. i`ve clamped it, jacked the joint all the tricks i have to my means, on the drive, got no shed or torch etc just a bag of spanners and sore fingers hahahahaha....

might have to just cut the fucker out we``ll see, raining at the minute so can`t do f all but look at it stareing at me, taunting me.. hahahahaha...



got enough hash for a few joints tonight, and to be honest i`m thinking of knocking it on the head then until i yeild and cure a bit of this run, still weeks away but i`m fucked up of smokeing it, and theres no reall bang for the buck so whats the point in continueing but the satisfaction of the routine...

also, this is an old council house, we had been on the "let to buy" scheme but the house was faulty so they had to move us and we got to pick a house in my old neighbour hood, there 40`s houses and are fairly basic, with decades of bad and half arsed repairs, i had got the other place liveable and comfy but there was radon that just couldn`t be fixed on my budget and the council refused as it was beyond there remit, or so they tought until i got legal, but we got this place and under the rule we spend a year here then can go back on the scheme, the old ones finished so as soon as the new scheme starts the house is mine...

im living in a rented council house that's 35+ years n has only ever been repaired by travelers soooo bit cowboy ish like doors don't close right n things like that lol but its cheap rent n fuckall about to rent with a GIANT dog lol


EDIT so high I forgot I had more to say lol my moms is a council house which ill be getting n love it family home lots done to it blah blah think we had really high radon n the council installed this extraction fan thing to take care of it..suppose to only be the older houses with poor foundation that doesn't that whatever it is in it lol or am I just thinking of something else? Haha

poor foundation would mean lots of cracks around the walls, the radon sump is a fan that sucks or blows air from the house, the ones the council use (we had it first) is an inline fan cobbled onto some 4 inch wavin and shoved into the dry filling under the floor slab, this is ineffective at best, especially as we had floating floors (raised timber floor)the other side of the slab... the correct way is to lift the floor and go down 2 feet, its then tanked and a form poured to resemble a circle aprox one third the sixe of the floor or 2 such forms if needed, a fan is then fitted to remove air at a steady and constant rate and ducted to escape at ground level (radon is heavier than air so "pools" in stagnant air) the floors are reinstated above this assembly, floating floors in this case as you would have to go deeper for a concrete floor...

hence why it was easier to move us.. hahahahaha...

Wait, so should I get my mom to say what the fuck are they playing at?(she would n all lol she already make complaints about that fan being on her electricity bill lol)

welcome aboard tagh... please do tell us a bit more about your setup etc...
1st off thanks for the welcome all,

My setup, well thanks for asking ;)
Just started back up from about 2-3 year break, didn't have the location.
Last time I was setup I was just running with a little bit of gear and a lot of knowledge from RIU and other forums. Did 5 runs and refined my skills, took all the info I learnt and practiced it... Uncle Bens Topping Technique for example.

Anyways about a month into Veg on my the new setup. I set things real proper like for this run. Just a small area but I have it planned well.
This will one day be the mother room for things to come...

I have a 5x12 area, 5x5 dedicated to flower, 4x4 tent in the room for veg.
400cfm exhaust hooked up to a A/C Relflector and the 550cfm Phresh carbon filter. 130 cfm intake hooked up to the Phresh intake filter, dimmed down a bit with a speed controller. Now this is exchanging the whole area.

In the tent
4 Bulb T5 Relfector
100 cfm exhaust into main room w/ passive intake. I have the tent light tight, instead of putting a door on my 5x5 flower area. When the tent is closed up and the door is closed you cant see a hand in front of my face. So I'm sure it will suffice :)
Running Promix w/ Advanced Nutrients 3 Part GMB, Voodoo Juice, B-52. Big Bud, Overdrive, and Bud Candy when time comes.

Started 10 of TGA's Ripped Bubba and 2 HSO Bubba Kush. Today is actually Day 28 now that I think about it.
They are currently in 1 Gallon Square Pots, I will be transplanting into 3 Gallon Smart Pots any time now and then again 5 Gallon for flower. 1000W Hortilux waiting to be fired up.
I have a Journal here for any interested https://www.rollitup.org/subcools-old-school-organics/784567-getting-ripped-ripped-bubba.html

Thanks for listening, feel free to ask questions or point out anything that seems off.

well those fans are all of 3 amps so not on the electric, but you should get the testers for the radon, place them on the floor or bottom of a wardrobe, they say to hang them at ceiling height but if you want true results (well as true as those small bounce testers can manage) put them on the floor... they couldnt get our bequels below 1800, and the recommended levels are a third that...

all good except the bud candy... have done a couple of grows with it and can`t see the need, you have more than enough watts in there to mega yeild, and over time you wold save enough to help replace your bulbs etc... not that you won`t save a fortune in weed anyways hahahahaha...

ah i didn`t care tho, with young kids it was better to walk away and start again, that and this is a much better area to bring them up theres more space and closer to town....

Evening all. Hope we are all good.

I dont miss my old council house as much as I thought I would. I defo miss the garden and the shed. And I had more freedom to do what I wanted. But this new house is much better for the miss's health, and the kids have more room to play. Plus after we left they ripped the shell out of the old house because it was soo shite and dangerous. This is after 7 years of them telling us they couldnt do anything with it.

Nice one with the washer @R31. I get a nice buzz out of being able to do stuff for the ma. She dragged us up by the ears for long enough, its nice to give a bit back.

How is the Battle Of Condensation Falls coming along @ae86?

It just so happens I have yet to pick up the Bud Candy I do have everything else however, maybe I will invest in a new bulb instead. Good info. What additives are you using? You run AN as well?

Ghostdogalpha,

Glad to have you along!
I know I learnt a ton of info from journals back in the day and this site in general so it's cool to give back.
Plus getting the second opinion is always nice too. ;)

went through a phase of the big bud and candy, but didn`t get any real bang for the 60 quid a botle so decided it was beter to change out the bulb and also got another 600 for a back up instead of buying that addative, i only use the bio bizz range, so cheap and effective ... thats bio grow and bio bloom...

Smell is getting a bit heady allright. Its very satisfying tbh lol

Good to hear about shed. Will it swing the other way now in the summer and be too humid/hot I wonder? I suppose if it does that a lot easier to deal with than damp.

hahahaha prob will yeah... easier fix that tho, simple wet rag over the fan cover will humdify the place... sods law tho there`ll be a bit more too it than that, have to say i love opening up and getting that warm bang of weed...


last time to visit the hospital today, got the results and seems they got all the tumor with clean flesh to within a mm of the nearest boundry of the removed section, going around scareing kids now with the bandage removed hahahaha....
