right following my recent heat problem with my new 600 hps light i decided to set out today and buy a larger fan. (ok seems simple enough right?)
well nope its not simple i went everywhere that has ever sold them in my town in the wonderfully sunny UK (sarcasm)
and guess wot?..........
...................nowhere absoloutly no where sells them for fuck sack do these shitty retailers think that jus cos winters comin that people and plants dont need coolin obviously so.
everywher has recalled all there cooling fans for fuckin heaters
now wot the fuck am i to do, 10 plants gettin burnt to a crisp day by day and no way of fixing it
i even looked on the internet and nothin not unless i want to pay £70-£100
for one i dont think thats gonna happen who do they think i am the fuckin queen, richard bloody branson or wot i mean they only spin a blade to make cool air for fuck sake, its all bollocks
hey peps if anyone knows a good dealer in cambridge in the uk or a site on the net that does uk delivery fast please, please, please let me know asap

ps: sorry bout all the fuck , shit, bollocks im a bit pissed off got rather wet out in the rain for fuck all

not that i know of could make my own but gotta find the parts first thatl probably be harder tha finding the fan
i went to a place called B&Q if u dnt have em in the states its a DIY, home&garden store
tried argos a catolgue store who do sell them in the catologue but every one in the uk is out of stock same for every other place ive tried
ive got one option thats my local grow shop they sell everything else to grow with but somehow i got a feelin they wont sell fans theyl jus tell me to got to somewhere ive been
if i am lucky 2moz il let you know of my success (not that any of you will really give a shit) but hey ima tell ya anyway
still tho let me know if any one know any net sites i can get one from
jus remeber im in the uk
ive seen sites in the states cant wait that long for dlvry tho
oh and ebay isnt an option (dont ask why)

buy 4 bathroom extractor fans. You can get basic 4inch ones for 5-7 pounds. they shift about 85 m2 an hour each so if u wired up 4 of them u might shift the heat from a 600W monster. But if u have paided 100£ for a light why not pay the same for a good extractor as u need it.

well since i do not live there i will leave ya alone, think about this in the meantime while you wait for fan....try putting bowl of ice in front of fan to cool the air more, just keep adding ice
