The UK Growers Thread!

I heard it was only gonna be dutch nationals in 5 years time allowed to smoke heh w/e it is i hope i get to go there before it gets spoilt !
 
Ffs i called in sick today thinking to myself sweet beers buds and finishing my season on fifa (i hate football dw) only to find out the fucking disc is scratched , so thats that rest of my xbox games are like 80 miles away -.- shoulda just gone to work lol
 
Bahaha, consoles, what a lafff :p I'm just egging myself into doing some more wood work but in the meantime am having fun playing around with one of the new mods :D they're a silly bunch of sausages :lol: I don't get the luxuary of sick days. If i'm ill i have to owrk, i don't get a choice, and due to my bosses creative idea of how to employ people, i do not get sick pay, if i do somehow manage to take a day off sick i'm simply out of pocket so i can' afford to take the day off. Catch 22 :D

yeah had that problem when i was self employed im the only member of staff not to go sick this year tho so ive earnt one its was only a small shift anyways. Managed to have a good sort out around my place and ive decided fuck the law im growing im just gonna be more discreet get some cfls , and grow with the fookin doors closed lol
Ive only got £100 to spend of cfl so im wondering if i should go for dual lamps and reflector , or if i should go with a shit load of clip on lamps and leads so i can have loads of smaller ones dotted around the plant :/
 
Ive found some bulbs but the fuckers are e27 screw fit and the clip on leads are £14.99 a go , which is a bitch as bayonet are £3 a go.

Im just wondering are these leads as simple as buying a few plugs some 3 core and a bulb holder ? if so im just gonna make my own.

Little para it wont be that simple tho dont wanna blow the electrics :P
 
For the CFL fittings, if you're talking the bigger fuckers with regard to the e27 thingy, then it is simple a fancy bigger bulb socket. Mine has 2 metal contact loops on either side that the wire is simply connected to, however you like so as it's secure but still safe, and then just plugs into a regular wall plug with appropriate fuse. Personally i'd think about either T5's etc or lots of smaller so they can allbe at suitable heights instead of one bulb one height, then the whole plant can get usable lumens :) i'll be in the market for some cfls's in the next few weeks.

Here's my work for this afternoon :) not strictly neccessary but they were lying around and i thought sod it :D i'm a bit shocked that everything lines up for someone using a jigsaw, biro and tape measure and nowt else :D Figured i'd stick with jsut 2 things to keep things managable

I reckon those two will be able to produce plenty of seeds between them :) a batch every 4 weeks

Aye, they'll try and rip you off wherever they can. I would take a pic of my spare socket but, umm, :( whoops

i used some of the cfl's from ebay, 85 watt ones but dont worry about the 4 way apapter thing its useless, ya can buy the twin splitters as well so one bulb fitting splits into 2 and they only cost around 1.20 each, and i baught a load of the e27 ceramic fittings for jus ova quid each, baught like 10 coz was going to do a massive cfl grow but changed me mind into going for hps lol so i have like 6 spare i dont mind selling for quid each n quid for postage, can list on ebay too if ya interested, with the ones i'm using ive jus put all into one junction box and run a lead from that with one plug, used 13amp cable and it works fine no problem with heat either

heres the place i got me bulbs from http://stores.ebay.co.uk/greenlampltd

and heres where i got the splitters from http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/E27-2-E27...586?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_3&hash=item27b9d6ebda
