Your a jammy jammy fucker, contact in amsterdam, I had one but he moved away form the dam (don't understand the move). I wouldn't know about the quality of smoke to compare in all honesty, only reason I bought ak's was because I was in the shop and the money was spare :D I would rather have bought the bubblegum hands down, medicinal value + sweet taste = Knockout weed. Plus the 1st grass I smoked was bubblegum so it would bring back fond memories of me out cold on my mates sofa after a 3 hour laughing session.

I don't get a lot of time to travel to tell you the truth man but rest assured if I'm ever up that way for a skate I'll give you a shout before hand so you can get out and about for a while.
some great places to skate up round here mate the ampitheatre to name one in portrush. lol lucky is not the word mate my monthly birthday card came today but it northern lights this time some lovley tasting weed i must say, nice pleasant stone too but i will prob smoke it all soon as its very moreish. ive known the guy for a few years now wev played games online but dont get me wrong a few times it didnt come through i was gutted. but defo get a few smokes if your up this way mate.

I used to skate up there flat out with me mates but hammered my back a few years ago in a carcrash and I'm bein' a pussy skater not doin' much incase I hurt meself :( sucks like, defs though i'll be up that way probably after xmas and that, gettin a car soon so I'll be doin' the runnin' about to skate parks but I'm goin' down the freeman route for the car and might not make it that far up the country...depends on the cops whether they want to test me or not.

Never smoked the NL's before but I heard it's tasty stuff, the mate of mine said one of the best ones out there at the minute is intensive care, he brought some back a few months ago and I got a bag....deadly :D

Luc fair play to ye for orderin' that UFO from what I heard you won't be dissapointed, same growing power as a HPS and you can put it right ontop of your plant if you wanted to.

Their some plants sucky fair play, it's putting me in the mind to do some guerilla growing next year I keep thinking of one spot on the outskirts of the town that would be perfect, guaranteed no people going anywhere near it. Is the hollands hope a good beginner outdoor weed or what could you guys recommend? I was thinkin' a 70% indica in all honesty since their a hardy type of plant but I haven't the foggiest when it comes to outdoors.

nice plants there sucky, there really looking well alright and shows we can can grow some nice weed on these shores!
took a few pics myself this evening just to show how the plants have grown in the last few days.
this was last tuesday i think



and these are what i took today.
i am going to be ringing gotham tomorrow about the led ufo, there is a new one they have which is six band but i just dont know if its going to be anywhere near strong enough for the three plants i have, there are so many differing reviews but the new one is supposed to be 16000 lumens which is powerful alright.
will let you know what happens tomorrow.

Lookin' well luc nice thick hardy stems and plenty of folliage. 16000 lumens is pretty strong like that should do the job, band 6 are the new ones aren't they?

hows things lads,sound for the comments on the girls.mick the purple power and hollands hope would prob be good for starting outside.if you have found agood spot u'l prob have to make sure they're will defo be no one round.we have to go through a swamp to get to ours and have wellies hidden aswell like.if your using the same way to get down to the garden you will have a nice track worn from all the visits and wouldn want anyone to follow that now,try and be close to a water supply or grow in the ground so you wont have to water so much,have a good think bout it before ya do it neways man,id say indoors would be easier prob,was gonna do some myself but 1 of the lads got busted,he was growin 6 lowryders.but id say its much safer growin outside away from your property!

Man i would love to do a guerilla grow, but i just couldnt face the thought of someone finding it and harvesting it just before me..lol...But my god those plants look good.

I just LST'd 5 of my autos, i was just worried about my height, i was reading a bit on the big devils and they seem to grow a bit to high for my room. I have read loads of conflicting things on doing it to autos but none of which affects the yield can anyone confirm this. .. well its done now so no turning back, it will be interesting to see. I left one of the fast buds because it was the one that sprouted twins from the seed and i want to see how it goes..I think its day 22 now and they had there first nutes on friday and watered again before LST'ing. I will take a couple of pics tomorrow to see if they have turned back up. Still cant see any hairs yet....Will need your opinions tomorow.

Howyiz lads - new guy here. Currently have 1 lonely White Dwarf in my back garden. I have knocked the sh*te out of it and it's still going strong. Accidentally topped it while trying to LST it, then the dog stepped on it and it's been sh*t cold the past week or so but it's a real trooper. Looks like I will get 5 or so nugs off it - enough for a j or 2. I'm currently setting up a small (3ftdeep x 2 ft wide x 4.5 feet tall) grow space and planning on using cfls to start with. My question for the rest of you good people is where do you get your cfl grow lights? Do I have to use the 125 - 200W ones you used to be able to get in the headshops or would I get away with a shedload of smaller wattage bulbs?
Cheers!

I know the craic there man, I could well be wrong about where I'm thinkin' I'll have to get a proper nosey around march, it would be in the ground I wouldn't want to be cartin' a load of tools and material through the fields :D I could be tempted just to move house after the new year to somewhere less central so I can grow the balls to do a good few plants and experiment with that hemp oil stuff and have daytime/nightime weeds like silas from how high haha.

That's tight about your mate only 6 autos too that's no good.

hi doiremick
yes the band six are the new ones, i was talking to vic over there and he said this should suit my purposes alright. the new six band are more of an all rounder where the other ones from 2009 are more for the flowering so i have heard. although the new ones still have a lot of the red led for flowering aswell. costing a couple of hundred dollars plus 60 postage so about 180 euros all in. just hope its gonna be ok for the ladies. well i got a computer fan yesterday and just hammered a hole through the bedroom wall but other half not so pleased. fuck it the ladies need to breath!, they were getting all droopy on the top and the stems were kind of closing so it was like the plant was praying to a hindu god for just a drop od air to fill its leaves.
anyway thats done so they should be ok now.
will let you know exactly when i put in order and when it arrives so you all know how long it takes to get here, do you think i should send it too a different address than where im growing at?
