don't they just!

and the irony of it all is dr jones is actually a seemingly sound fella, just the moment people get "why're you so imature" and whatnot because you've put religion into a possibly offensive joke, well pah. no gripes against him really, just the religeous aspect :)

it's looking good. really good. those roots are looking like they want to go a bit wild.

in my picture of the root mass i thought that it looked a lot redder than it really was, and in yours there seems to be yellow and almost some red to the roots. so i can't say if this is exagerated buy the camera etc.

if it is indeed those colours, then there are a couple of things i can think of. firstly is that it may just be from prior to getting all that bubble action going, secondly it could possibly be that the dark container is sucking up the heat into the water. what temperature is the water? (i figure you'll have a thermometer being mr aquarium man) i think it is meant to be arounbd 70F although not 100%. if the water is too warm it'll cause root rot.

lol i'm kinda slacking in that department really. tried 2 get the glass ones for the tank at the weekend but they only had the sticky on ones, dont think they would really be accurate. about 21oc? i'm using cannazyme 2 help with the breaking down of roots. u recon it would be worth switching it for some h2o2 for a week?

haha, not to sound a dick but i've not had need to read up on troubleshooting in any depth yet :lol: the cannazyme and rhizitonic sound like good products for sickly plants, i guess, but have never used, as to h202, again, never used, all i can say is that it is not to be used in conjunction with things such as boost etc.

res temp wants to be in the 60's ideally, not sure what mine are though, i tend to check things like that only when a problem arises. bad methodology but fuck it :) saying that i'll bet the clone res is steaming, no ventilation in that tent, replaced the light with a 150w a month back but it's still warm. might have to somehow add yet another fucking unsubtle whirring fan :( if anyone were to walk in my room one morning wihle i was alseep that would be me busted, wihtout the coputer on it's not stealthy :lol: got to get hold of some cheap speakers to put my water pumps inside.

been a good few threads and posts of the same stuff, who the hell would be stupid enough to want to buy stolen bank details. no thankyou!

i've not heard about aquarium chillers but they sound good. i've done all i can in the hope that my mission would be heating the water up as opposed to having to chilli it down. (there goes my tv again, i got to buy a contactor pronto)

i know don mentioned he tried both of the canna additives and saw no positive effect from using them, although as i say, chances are his plants were healthy, in which case they are not needed at all.

A MAN with a lengthy criminal record who was found with 150 cannabis plants, a full growing set-up and £1,500 cash has escaped jail after the prosecution accepted he was cultivating the drugs for his own use.

Prosecutor Eoin McCarthy told Plymouth Crown Court that when police raided a house in Victoria Road, St Budeaux, no-one was home.

But Steven Bennett turned up during the search.

Officers found scales, a cannabis grinder and a pipe in the lounge and two benches covered in 87 cannabis plants between two and six inches high in pots in a bedroom.

In the loft, they found more than 60 additional plants in buckets, together with 14 lamps, three transformers and several fans.

Bennett, aged 51, told police he had started growing cannabis to combat his alcoholism, but with two other men had started growing it on a "slightly larger" scale.

There was no commercial supply – the men supplied the equipment, he grew the plants and he gave them some of the resulting crop.

Bennett, of Langdale Gardens, Estover, said he received no money or financial gain, was responsible for 75 or 80 plants and had grown six crops, with the other men benefitting from two of them.

He said £1,500 cash found in one room had been earned by him and was not from the sale of drugs.

Mr McCarthy said the Crown had accepted Bennett's version of events and was unable to say that the cash was the proceeds of crime.

He said Bennett, who pleaded guilty to a single charge of cultivating cannabis, had been offending since the early 1970s and had a long criminal record.

Nick Lewin, for Bennett, admitted his client had been "a hell-raiser in his youth" but added: "His situation now is remarkably different."

He revealed that Bennett's partner, who attended court in a wheelchair, had suffered a stroke in January and he was now caring for her.

He had stopped using and growing cannabis and no longer presented a risk of future offending, said Mr Lewin.

The judge, Recorder John Williams, told Bennett he was "a vastly experienced criminal" who had been in more crown courts around the country than he had, but accepted he was now caring for his partner.

He imposed a jail sentence of 10 months suspended for two years with a residency condition, and ordered him to pay £350 towards the prosecution's £500 costs.

makes me feel abit less paranoid when i read case's like this lol

yup, at the end of the day, you WILL most likely get a criminla record, but as is being shown every week, they just can't afford in either money or space, to get people in jail.

even the part where he states "he has stopped using and growing cannabis"

the old taff in the video was given the exact same letting off. he was told "suspended sentence on grounds of not re-offending" to which he said suuuure, and got straight back into rearing 150 plants, got caught, just got given the same punishment, the judge in the end simply stated that at his age, and with his reccord, he can find no beneficial reason (to society as well i think is stated) to put you behind bars

i am paranoid over being caught, i don't want to be caught, they're my almost ready plants goddamnit!! but in terms of the punnishment, fuck, i honestly fear more about getting done drink driving a second time than i am of ebing raided. i can still afford and have a license, to drive a car if i'm raided, i'm off the road for years with an unpayable premium if i'm done DRINK driving. notice how os far, all my issues in life are stemmmming from alcohol related ordeals :lol:
