blacKdeath Posted July 6, 2003 Share Posted July 6, 2003 Hey. I've been following this post for a while now but untill now have been silent. Well BB it seems you have gained a lot of experience during the past few weeks, your grow room also seems good and I'm sure your plants will thrive. Is stealth a big issue for you? You have mentioned certain points which led me to ask that question. Also are you using any nutrients or growth enhancers? Well good look with the grow, all the best. Laters. Peace, love and empathy. blacKdeath Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
budahbwoy Posted July 7, 2003 Author Share Posted July 7, 2003 easy BD, glad you have broken the curtain of silence, pleased to meet ya geez! stealth/security is something i take really seriously. prior to this GR being built i installed 2 cctv cams outside and an alarm rigged to the GR too! i have also installed a remote control unit to the mains so if i get any unexpected visits...i can remotely shut the whole thing down!! plus, being in a 1 bed house, everyone passes the bedroom to go to the loo.....so yeah.....i have taken as many measures poss to conceal the fact i am growing. the g/friend is already briefed on what to do in an emergency too....so she can get the plants out and to a safe place in 15 mins, and replace the plants with 'tomato' plants (no joking i bought seeds, books etc!)...so if the GR IS discovered by anyone i can honestly say i love tomatoes!! the fridge is always stocked with em...and books on the subject available to back up my claim!!! paranoid? ha ha ....... as for nutes, the whole light was a kit from growell, and includes ionic bloom and grow....ive read mixed reviews about this product and will try as my growing skills improve, other such as cann pk i think! thanks for your kind comments, this wouldnt have got this far if it wasnt for this site and good folk like yerself! peace & respect.

budahbwoy Posted July 31, 2003 Author Share Posted July 31, 2003 easy all, well, after months and months of DIY, research and more research, i have finally started mt FIRST grow. 4 x C99 beanz were germinated in the aiing cupboard using the ol paper towel method, 2 outta 4 popped last night, so they went inot the growing cubes, and under a fluro on 18/6...... 1 of the other 2 beanz has split, and i am just waiting for th tap root to pop before i plant it. number 4 however, shows no signs of life. ill give it another day and germ another if i dont see any results. so....thats it really....thought id keep this thread as my grow diary, keep your eyes peeled....pics will be up VERY soon (as soon as there is somethin worth taking a pic of). MANY MANY THANKS TO UK420....for helping this dream become reality. respect BB Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
