As some already know, I've re registered my account, firstly I should apologise for bailing when the shit hit the fan, when weird things started to happen I was sure my account was corrupt and I asked Muddy to delete me from the forum, EDIT, just to add to this part, all the paranoia was in my head, I've been reading a hell of a lot about security and now feel safe to be here
I had been viewing the forum daily from the other side of the fence, and also other forums, but there is definitely only one canna forum on the net worth reading, it's blatantly obvious!
Early January I went to Amsterdam for a few days with the Mrs, whilst chilling in a cafe, talking to people from all over the world like a little community, I did miss being apart of this one, so decided to grow some and re join, hopefully I will be as welcome as I was?
Before I get boo'd off the stage I'll update my garage grow
Its not gone too well so far to be honest, the first plants to go in was my MI5 and I stunted them, they didn't even reach the scrog thats 8" above the pots! and they was in full flower, shame I didn't know a PC grower as they would have loved them!
It could have been down to a few reasons, I started the beans in a coir pellet, then potted into 1 ltr airpots with plagron light, then re-potted into 5ltr pots with h&g batmix which may have been a little too hot
Temperature has been a nightmare for me, I had a 20/4 light schedule and was having highs of about 25c (77f) and lows generally of 15c (59f) but we had some cold weather and it sometimes dropped to 11c (51f)
I was constantly opening the cab. so further messing with the temp.
I decided to not waste any more energy on them so chopped
So, that left me with 5 regular russian rocket fuel, a day or 2 after christmas I started to soak them in a glass, woke up the next morning and the mrs, bless her! put the glass in the dishwasher!!
After leaving the forum and the grief I was having with the cab. I kind of lost interest a little, it wasn't till the new year that I started thinking that i've got all this gear, and I need to use it, I looked in the seed tin where we store tomato and chilli seeds and found 2 fem. critical mass auto's, but before I planted I had to sort out the heat issue
I've got a 4" ruck extractor fan that i've been trying to QUIETLY slow down! I've used 2 speed controllers now and they both produced a humm louder than the fan on full speed, unacceptable in my stealth circumstance, so decided to buy another ruck fan that was temperature controlled (don't tell the mrs lol )
Considering i've got a small grow i'm getting a nice little collection
Also got to 120w tube heaters, 1 is on constant and the other is controlled by a thermostat for reptiles
I can now keep the cabinet at 26c (78f) constantly
Heres a couple of pics of my 4ish week old CM's they started life hard but now have some luxury, hope they produce
At least these look like they will reach the scrog lol
Another thing i've done is my lazy boy lst
That string is attached to the right plant
and that one to the left, every now and then i'll just tighten up a little, seems to work
Gonna post this before I lose it all
