ADVICE/OPINIONS on lowryder in u.k winter

[weedmaster]

you can get cfl bulbs from b&q homebase even sainsbury but look around the prices vary, B&Q £5-£6 but if you look around you will get much much cheeper. 6500k veg 2600k flower i think thats correct but check in the lighting forum,as i'm a bit stoned at the mo and the brain isn't working too good so best to double check.

right, cahnge of plan, fuck the lowryders. ive got a friend/investor whos going to give me 250 quid to get set up in return for half the weed i grow. im going to set up in the loft space of my garage. its judt sbout six foot high athe highest point and im going to section off half the space. seedswise, im sick of the indica stone but i dont suppose anyone knows a high yielding, low growing sativa??
the only worries i have are
1. the rise in the power billl might arouse suspicion
2. the garage might start stinkin after a while
3. would frost effect the garage?

i really appreciate the advice lads, without u ill be stuck smokin soap bar and sandy weed for ever:thumbsup:

Oohh man, aint that the truth!!

I've only got one thing to say . . .

P.s. Oops, sorry about being off topic. :sorry1:

£250 for half of everything you grow sounds like your mate is getting a right result. so your going to need to buy materials to section of part of the garage, a couple of fans lights, soil ferts for veg and ferts for flower, mylar or paint and beans, i think you need to do alot of research befor you start this project, with £250 you could have a great little setup, but don't rush into it you need to do your homework properly, best of luck.

well maybe that ''half of everything'' will be negotiated + he thinks im just goin to grow 10 plants wheras im gointo shove plants into every swuare inch of space so he'll be happy with 2-3 oz. Ye im thinking a 400w envirolite, im going to sheet out the attic with ply, section it off with that black plastic stuff, available in B&Q ?????. going to buy one of those rotating fans, i have pots and compost but im not sure of the proper soil mix 4 growin weed. will i need an extractor fan?? cos the area is fairly well vented ( maybe a bit 2 much? oh ye whats the deal with blue/red spectrum bulbs and all that malarkey? is it ok to just use blue spectrum?? the attic is not insulated but theres rarely outdoor temps below -2C so the attic temp shouldnt go below 0 especially wit the heat off the light. well do u think im on the right track?? all advice greatly appreciated:thumbsup::thumbsup::thumbsup::rasta:

First off all, really seriously do some reading otherwise this could be more difficult than you anticipate.
Blue spectrum is used for the plants "vegative" life stage (18 hours of light, 6 hours of dark (typically), and red bulb spectrum is used to "flower" the plants (12 hours of light, 12 hours of dark).
Ventilation is important, you need fresh air coming in to replenish the CO2 supply to your plants, this is important to help them lead a healthy life.
Regarding the soil needed, it should contain things (perlite) to allow the roots to breath, and to drain water though efficiently.
If it's not "airy", you could get root rot.

My most important piece of advice is, READ INTO the cultivation of cannabis.

[joe86el]

ye i knew one was for veg and one was for flowering i just wasnt sure which was which. Ill have an oscillating fan for air circulation but as far as constantly supplying fresh air , air is coming in from the eves but what would anyone suggest for a fresh air supply? apart from that i cant see any flaws with the ideas

nice spliff by the way
