Right real quick start to a new loft build (pictures 2 b added later).
£2500 of equipment was obtained for a paultry £600 !!. Around £1500 has been spent on the loft conversion itself up to date !!,been going for 6 days flat out and i am only just putting celotex on the roof and floors !!. Can't wait to get some green in there and watch it grow !!. Mate is putting following strains in there :cheese(non-uk),church,cali' orange,whitewidow,blueberry & new york city diesel so either way we'll get some shite hot green for the end of jan' as were using cuttings.

Right here goes boys time for some step by step piccies of the loft and progress so far,aswell as a description of the intended next day plans so you can get some kind of idea of how long things take ect.
the first set of pictures are of the loft with chipboards fitted and stud work installed to ceiling rafters to aid in taking the weight of the conversion and spreading the load with the main roof supports as these are atleast 4" X 10" and sit directly on the walls. Enjoy: |

No worries watching yours from a back seat as i'm so busy on this one 9 -6 literally !!!,got a wicked deal on 3 x cool tubes,1 x 250w ballast,1 x 400w ballast,rvk ruk,rockwall cubes also got a nutricoulture nft table 1200 x 1400 ,pump ph test kit ph up & down for fuck all as mate was gonna bin it !!,he's old school like that !!,don't even want it myself so its gonna go on flea bay asap.

Some more photo's from todays work !!.
1.clone area with shelf and rad underneath, looks rough at the moment but will be sorted out before the black and white goes on tomm'. 2.picture of wilko' flo' lights for clone area.(SMALL LIGHTS ARE TO BE USED IN THIS AREA AS IT IS ONLY FOR CLONES). 3.600 watt hps area,light mover to be put here as soon as possible. 4.Tap light shroud area (on left glued/taped to wall) and nifty pipe boxing in with celotex and no nails !!(ideal for short plants in veg area to get them higher in the canopy,or even a fan !!),this area is on the left in the veg area. Got some more things done after the picture's see some budshots on my grow diary if you can't wait for the shit to grow in here !!,lovely close up of The Church (bow down !!). ENJOY: |
