If you consider owning a car a luxury, you must be British. :lol:

if the house has the old spinning meters, they dont know how much you use and when you use it?, only the total amount?
Click to expand...
yep.
that means that the rate is fixed, and there is no such thing as off peak usage that they can moniter and trace to you,
Click to expand...
No, that means there's a second spinning disc meter for off-peak service.

if thats the case, it would be fine to run anywhere from 2-4 lights plus some extra , in after work hours, so that no meter man would see the thing spinning fast.
Click to expand...
It's really of more use to run big lights at night so you can take advantage of cooler night air to draw into the op than to hide your spinning disc from the meter reader.

how can i get a report of power consumption in the neighborhood?
Click to expand...
You can't. All you can do is weasel some info out of your neighbours.

and wtf is a proxy?

It's a computer set up to relay traffic between you and the site you want to access. The site you want to see will record the IP of the proxy, not yours.

Thanks for the link, greenstar. :)

You know anything about this? Are laws there similar to the archaic laws we deal with in the US?

The law in SA is impossible to enforce without evidence that you've been growing cannabis because the equipment they have criminalised has legit uses. However, if you're found to be growing cannabis, it's used as a 'pile-on' charge just to fuck with people even more.

The SA law IS a pile of shit, bleez.

Even worse are the hydroponic cannabis laws in NSW, which will put you (meaning ME) away for 20 years.

Well Al... I just got FUCT.... lol....

Finally got my package from HTG... and the 8" cool tube is not a tube at all....

Big air cooled reflector with 8" inch ducts.... but not a tube...

Here is what I got...



So I figured this might work... it barely fits.... kinda big... but it might work... (my space is 36"W x 60"T x 20"D)

But when I got home... and took it out of the box....

The bulb is smashed... the flat glass piece is loose from the frame... the frame's welds let go.... so I am pissed...!!!!

The box has been at the post office since the 6th and only today I got a slip....

I am pissed....

I have to send it all back and wait again.... FUCT.....!!!!!

My question is, do I want the 6" cool tube or would this ginormous mostruosity work better for my space...???

Fuck I'm pissed....

Anyways... wanna buy a manual on how to grow weed? I have been growing for 3 weeks now, and I figured out how to do it very easy and almost free...!!!!! just send me $300 CASH...lol....(sorry, I couldn't resist...lol...)

Cheers...

Are the laws in Australia so similar to the ones here, in that if I commit a murder or rape I'll likely get out in 7 years or so, whereas getting caught growing some plants the government says are bad will get you 10+ easy?

Oh, and remember: it's for your own protection. And the children. :wall:

For anyone germinating in water.

I threw some seeds in water this morning and it appears the 3 that dropped have cracked. How long should I leave them before I transplant them into rockwool?

Yep, it probably will work OK given that it has a glass cover over the lamp as well as inlet & outlet duct flanges.

But when I got home... and took it out of the box....

Either one ought to work but if given my choice, I'd prefer the cooltube.

Sorry about the smashed fixture. Hope the HTG is paying the return postage...

Yeah, won't somebody think of the CHILDREN? After all, there's utterly draconian laws about drug activity near schools, never you fucking mind that no dope dealer wants anything to do with kids, who a) couldn't keep their mouths shut with super glue and b) don't have a nickel to spend on dope, ferfuxsake.

When they have a taproot about 4-5mm (~1/4") long, then they can go in the RW and under fluoros.

They treat hydro like it the devil. LIke marijuana is worse than heroin. Like it kills people.
20+ years for cultivation is totally over and beyond. Lives are worth less than some plants. wtf! ALb, what are ounce prices in AUS, since the laws are so damn strict?

They will grow a taproot completely submerged in water?
Click to expand...
No. Usually what folks do is soak a bean in water for only a few hours to get it to crack (and that's not really necessary) then transfer it to a damp paper towel in a partly open plastic bag, where it is left until the taproot emerges.

The bean will crack and put out a taproot if put simply on a damp paper towel in a partly opened plastic bag which is put in a warm (28-30C) place, top of the fridge, horticultural heat mat, etc.

Tell, me, did they mark the pkg 'FRAGILE - GLASS' or anything radical like that? Somebody dropped the ball, right on their tiny little dick. Fuckers.

Al... I am having a hard time believing it was damaged in transit...

The Bulb came bubble wrapped, inside of the reflector, well padded I might add...

The reflector itself was placed in a padded box, which was in turn insideof another box.... there were even "corner fitter upper" dealies on the box to keep it from sliding inside of the other...

All of the packaging was intact... both outer and inner boxes are mint, inside and out... not even a scratch on the big red fragile stickers...

I suppose someone could have dropped/thrown it flat on the ground... but I imagine that if the impact was enough to knock the welds on the reflector glass frame, it wold have broken the glass... I think...

And the bulb... the internal components broken to pieces, but the outside just barely cracked... I guess anything is possible... but with that much glass in there... the metal parts got bent?

At the same time, I cannot believe that HTG would ship from their "return" pile....

I don't know... frustrating as hell... pretty soon I'm gonna run outta time and won't be able to harvest before I get out of this hotel room... Sucks to nurse them along to chop them 2 weeks early..!!!

Yep, that's a good clue. It was almost certainly damaged in transit. Someone either dropped the box from a height or deliberately threw it.

Was it a plain brown box or was there some indication of the items contained?

Just Sweet Tooth #4. The hash is plain ol finger hash, rolled off my fingertips when manicuring. Nice little treat for the manicurist. ;)
