no worries mate, i leave all my water to stand for a day so it warms to room temp, i don't ph it mate i sometimes filter it though with a briter filter but for the most part don't worry about it, i leave the light on 24/7 but because it's a 150w blue cfl i leave it a about 2ft above the prop and it does the job brilliantly mate, another thing i do is fill the prop with perlite and once they've rooted the roots run wild through it and have a good start for when their put into their medium, i don't know if it makes much of a difference mate but they seem to start well and fast

Awrite del? Im in the middle of getting my shopping list together for my new set up, gonna build a 2.5m by 1.25m room in the other end of my loft, from the floor to the roof. Gonna get myself a fan n a carbon filter, been looking at this one - http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/5-RUCK-EXTRACTOR-FAN-CARBON-FILTER-KIT-GROW-TENTS-/270720529100?pt=UK_HomeGarden_Garden_PlantsSeedsBulbs_JN&hash=item3f083372cc - 5" ruck fan. Also gonna get a 600W hps to team up with my 400W. Getting the black/white reflective sheeting for the inside and i plan to do about 12 plants in coco in there. Should be good fun and if all goes to plan it should look the part too.

Im a student so ive no got that much cash floatin about lol. I reckon this new set up will skin me about 3 ton max but most a that will get used again n again hopefully. Was gonae go DWC but it would be too expensive the now, ive got a 20l black bucket n lid, net pots, n air stones there but so il maybe diy a wee one to get a shot of it. Canae wait tae this grows done so i can start gettin this built, got the perfect space for it at the other end of the loft n ive got 18 fem seeds there waitin to be grown. got 4 reg that il do 12/12 with aswell.

I was so fukkin happy to see the gers playin proper fitbaw the day. Edu....still never cut it but davis, jelavic, wylde, lafferty then weiss when he came were spot on. No rated lafferty at aw since he got here but he done well.

check out fantronix.com they do all the same fans as the hydro shop lads but much cheaper, some youll have to wire up yasel but thats as hard as wiring a plug really.

del ive got a 8" rvk, its like a fucking jet engine.

thats odd they are giving different ratings for the rvk and hvk fans than 3 counties and growell............got the tt fans though, had 1 of those running for maybe 4 years now every day, thats value.......good prices there though mate think i will just grab one from them cheers.

is it as noisy? or silent?
They are quite noisy i have the same fan although i dont use it anymore, silencers are worth the money if noise is a problem but alot of it comes down to what fan controller you have when it comes to fan hum the better the controller the less hum there seems to be.

some sites say ruck push more air? tt are lower db, rvk are 48 db- tt are 37 db............[/QUO

Rucks are better than rvks in genral, the tt are OK for small grows though like a cab i have a 5in in my DIY cab and you cant hear the thing on full pelt they just dont push anywhere near the same CFM rating of the rucks/rvks.

Just checked the girls. Bud are beefing up big time. The cola on the big girl is about 24 inches. Not much of a smell though which is a little disappionting. Aw well u cant have it all
