Viewing some of the other efforts on here this seems a little weak but hey, it's my space. 4th pic shows almost finished space with the added benefit of a passive intake, which becomes active if the downstairs bog light is switched on. 3rd pic is the Ruck loosley assembled to gauge how noisy it was. It wasn't :-) It's gonna end up further down the room with acoustic ducting to improve air circulation. Should be finished soon but gotta wait 'cos I've got a big weekend coming shortly & can't afford to leave youngsters unattended,
Cheers,
Joe.

Hee hee. Overdepixelated methinks. Computers & me do not make good bedfellows. Will have another go. Already been bollocked by Owderb for incorrect posting. Hope I don't get booted 'cos I prefer this site to the others :-)
Joe.
Jeez. That's no better. I give in!
Keep trying Joe ya will get there,and best of luck 
Rixy,
Strains? Haven't a clue. This is where you lot come in. Only smoked solids. Used to nip over to Amsterdam 3/4 times a year but with the £ going tits up against the euro it's getting pricey. Got a mate down London who's advising me step by step. He's been growing for years. Said I'd never smoke home grown after spending £100 on a bag up here that was total shite. Tasted foul, nutrients & fertiliser & reading what they're doing to it with glass & silicone & stuff it's best avoided like the plague,
Cheers,
Joe.

No worries. But do remember that the key tool a grower has is persistence!
Being a dangerous obsessive & have just read Pulses post in "important image posting guidelines" in this section I think this might work. Growing's gonna be a piece of piss after this!

Looking good mate. Nice space you've managed to build there. Looks smart. Can't wait to see some plants in there.
ahh, no more squinting. 
It does look like a nice space! Like Blayz'd said, can't wait to see some girls in there!

Hey Joe,

thats a lovely den you got there...i wish i had that sorta room. is it totally sealed off from the rest of the loft space.
good luck
good luck
Nearly there on my hermetically sealed den of iniquity. Sort of first fixed the leccy today. Gonna break into the ring main after I've painted the walls white & tidied off a few bits & pieces. Was gonna put some white lino on the floor. Don't s'pose you can have too much whiteness can you? Locate the extractor & filter to the other end to promote airflow, install lighting & then ........... nuthin 'til I've had my weekend down the Smoke. Then expect some seriously stupid questions, to you, from me :-)
Cheers Folks,
Joe.
Cheers Folks,
Joe.

Its a shame, but its true...........But hey! a fellow biker.....
Not much more to do. Browns. as you can see it is totally sealed off from the rest of the loft & massively insulated. As well as retaining heat should cut down any noise. HS. Lights? Was thinking of a 250w enviro for vegging & 400w HPS for flowering. Don't need to grow much, just for myself but I do want quality.
Painted the walls with white primer this morning. Got paint everywhere with it sloping down towards me. Luckily I had the foresight to take all my clothes off first. For the sake of your mental health I suggest you wipe that image from your mind immediately :-)
Cheers,
Joe.

What height you got in that space mate?
Wanted to go up the loft myself, but after looking at the height and taking about a foot into consideration for my lamp I didn't think I'd have bugger all height to grow really.
Sod it, you've inspired me, off up tut attic tomorrow to measure up, got water pipes and electric circuitry up there so could be a goer
Cheers.
nothing like running out of ganja to get you off your arse ey!

nothing like running out of ganja to get you off your arse ey! 'Bout 6 foot. I can stand up easy, Think I'm about 5'8". Took shedloads of MDF tho'
Joe.
Cheers Joe.
I've got about 5'7 i'd say. Couldn't wait so got out me ladder. I'm 6'1 and can't stand up
Still, with lights hung etc should give 3 to 3 1/2 half foot of usable space (E2A: taking a 10" pot height into account). Thing is my lamp is a 600W... Hmmm... I'll have to think about this and post some queries. Anyone who reads this who's done similar, any advice would be greatly appreciated. Also my attic get real fucking hot and would be out of use for mid-summer for sure, but it's all i've got ATM. Bit of a shitter!
The tape comes out tomorrow
All the very best with your grow my friend

Cracking result joining filter to Ruck. Will post on DIY bit tomorrow. B&Q came good.

Hi Joe!
it looks the business! but! i see that you have a fan for extraction, what to you have to introduce fresh air to the grow room? passive vents should be good enough( ignore me me if you already have that sorted)!]]

Never ignore no one me. Inlet has been rerouted from downstairs bog, passive (with heat from radiator/house, active if bog light on)
Joe.
Nearly there. Broke into ring main yesterday. Leccy 'bout sorted, 8 sockets in all. Fan/filter/ducting in today.
Start on lighting tomorrow. Then I'm gonna need some serious advice from you folks out there 'cos I'm flying blind from here
TIA,
Joe.

Lookin good!
I'm curious though.
How is your cf attached to your fan? I've never seen anyone hang a cf like that before. I would be worried about it working loose (due to vibration plus weight) and the cf crashing down on your plants, lights, head, etc.

That set up is as safe as houses, all threads loctited, washer locked etc. Bungee hooks bent over & crimped. Goin' nowhere. & you can't hear it from the house
Don't forget the advice bit,
Cheers,
Joe.
Cool.
I'm a Professional Rigger who climbs up to 35 meters (so far) and while on 3 inch steel I-beams pulls up chain motor points and such for live events. So I naturally get concerned about such things.
Even though you may have lock washers and such, I would still keep an eye on it. If I could I would put a safety line on it so that if for some 1 in 1,000,000,000,000 chance all of your fastenings did work free, it would still have a line on it to keep it from crashing.
Safety first my friend!

very nice build mate, but like the rand says carefull with the cf. if it was mine i would have the cf at the highest backest place i could fit it.
also i would fit 6-8 floresent tubes for the lower branches.
also your intakes i would use 2 100mm/4" eg 2 inlets at the front opersit sides as low as pos. powered by 2 bathrooom fans so you can go pasive or forced.
just my stoned 1/8 of as penny

Bad news is I phoned my mate, who's been guiding me, for some advice. He told me he got home from work, door off its hinges, plants gone & warrant card on the table.
