Ah come on now ae...Stop blaming the kids for your own little accidents :-P

Have decided that I'm gonna take a tolerance break as well for the first time in a long time so no smoke till Friday. Have heard that 4 days is all thats needed.

hahahaha leave it so pad, was like that part of train spotting "no i`ll wash the sheets"....hahahahahaha....

i`d say a lad like you will need a bit more that 4 days to break the tolerance, being habitual smoker took me the best part of 10 days before the longing for a spliff went away, well even deminished to the point of control if you get me, i do wish you luck tho and hope you last the few days, i know if i had it here there would be no way i wouldn`t be a smokeing it.....;)

It's like cooking, too much or too little of anything is just plain wrong and won't give optimum results.

Anyone planting outdoor this year? Still pretty cold, Im thinking start of June is a good time?

NL Group 49V 1 Flip 2.jpgView attachment 2654825Slightly off topic but I was reading a recent copy of the New Scientist magazine and they were saying in all seriousness that they were a whisker away from developing a whole range of vegetables including tomatoes and cucumbers and many others bred genetically to contain a high percentage of THC in their fruits and leaves. The article then went on to speculate what the salads of the future might be like. What would be the main purpose of this ? apparently its a natural form of pest control and would save agriculture untold millions, of course these THC laden vegetables would also be used recreationally by hippy farmers and a whole new dawn would burst over Irelands green fields and the Dales of England, anyway probably overexagerration by the media as usual, but makes for interesting reading. Anyway I digress, here's a couple of pics from what seems to be a never ending cupboard full of leaves, I'll be delighted to see some buds, their just into 12/12 so all going well shouldn't be long now.

i like that quote har, yeah have my summer crop here but its a bit early even for vegging yet, suppose that depends on how big you want them when they go out but even tho i love the idea of a 6ft monster plant and the yeild it would bring its not practical for my application....

how many you putting out? i`ve settled on 3 gardens of 3 plants each...

how long ago did you flip them? maybe its just the light but they look like they could do with a good nitrogen feed... could be just strain also but if your going to do it now would be the ideal time..

yeah AE I'm wondering if they are getting enough, I;m sticking to the Biobizz Biogrow feeding regime and feeding 1mL per litre with every watering, and from now on another mL of Biobloom goes in along with that, some leaves are a little lighter, verging on yellowing, maybe I should go a little heavier on the Biogrow for a while PS just flipped them yesterday so its early days yet.

i`d give them a dose of n then, you would want them as green as you can get them going into flower, well ideally like...

they look good that said, and nice and tight (node wise), i like that in a garden...
 
Alright lads thinking bout bringing in my runt plant I have in the greenhouse I've a wardrobe that would be ideal gonna try cfls couple questions would I need to change the soil? How many cfls would do for the one plant and what other essentials would I need, felling sorry for it plus it would get me wet under the colar with indoor growing
