See its all comparable even though it's I higher cost.
Your pot is 2x ours maby more.
So a few extra quid a week isn't that bad.:thumb:
As Nick mentioned air loss = heat loss.
Seal up as best you can to save money.
Do you have any insulation? Or is it a straight up wooden shed.
I'm picturing a lovely garden shed at the back of your yard.
Something typical British.
Still lot's of green grass.
We are expecting a storm.
The gentleman who does our driveway gave his final bill this morning.
I'm done he said don't call me anymore. :rofl:
Poor guy is frazzled.
So I hope the storm isn't bad.
Stacey might get stuck if it is.
Already happened once this week. :rolleyes:

I'm watching the weather network right now.
Looks like you're at the north end of the freezing rain. Careful going out to tend your plants.
 
The @VIVOSUN equipment is very energy efficient.
I'm thrilled with how little electricity it takes to run the equipment.
That cement floor retains the heat really well.
Just the light shining on it keeps it at 18 easily.
It's working out well.
My biggest issue is its so air tight.
That's not the worst problem to have.
Love the @VIVOSUN equipment though. :thumb:

My lites don’t cost much either Bill, I have the 150w at 75% and the 100w at 100,I run them 24/7 and my bill is maybe 10-15 extra a month. Leds are very cost efficient, my 60w I started with only bumped my bill 7-8 bucks a month. My money is tight so I watch it closely, when I got the new lites I was nervous it was gonna be high, I was relieved it wasn’t

We had a tornado touch down 3 blocks from my house the other nite, it tore a tree outta the HS then lifted and touched down a 1/4 mile east and tore the roofs off 2 buildings. Very scary I had Mom in the basement, I’m in NJ we never get tornadoes, we had I think 7 touchdown

Excellent, glad it's working out well.

I've attached a few pics, Nick. As @Bill284 says my set up is in a tent, in a shed, in my garden - no insulation just a straight up wooden shed. Yes Bill, its your typical british garden 😆

The last few weeks we've had non stop rain and it's been fairly cold, so I got a small plug in heater to keep in the shed and have it blasting a small amount of heat for 10 mins every hour.

As we all know the heat in the tent generates itself. My two lights have integrated fan systems. Once they've been on for a long long time they will eventually warm up slightly and those small fans will produce a tiny warm air flow which my fans then push around the tent. I haven't opted for any type of fan system because I am staying as quiet as possible.

Today for example. Really warm sunny day - heading into spring now so I will start seeing our temps rise to 12-18°c. The heat coming in from the roof today caught me off guard and I opened up the tent at 30°+

So I now know I need to reduce the heater inside the tent. Maybe have the tent door half unzipped and I can do 5 mins every hour on the other heater. Unzipping half way defo helping me with humidity issues too.

Also, I know a few if you have noticed the reviews I have been writing up, based on strains I get hold of, inspect, smoke and honestly explain that experience. Will be atleast one a week, more than likely multiple a week.

I've now made it a blog which i hope to keep going and I hope people get involved and possibly begin leaving the odd review themselves. That'd be awesome actually.

Feel free to drop by find the link in my siggy....

'Around The World In 80 Strains'

I'd love to know what you think and if you maybe found experienced slightly different for you....

Thanks in advance 🙏🏻🙏🏻

Be safe ✌🏻 👌🏻

Thanks for the support ❤️

Someone My neck of the woods ✌🏽 I use a elitech temp and humidity controller it's so much less hassle. It has WiFi aswell so I can check/change anywhere or if a fire or something was to break out I'd know. Safer and keeps the environment under control I will be buying a couple more too 👍🏽

I have to drive to the electric board office tomorrow as under inspection for our bills. Gonna make us upgrade to 3 phase from hearing from other people. Saves us money on units and make it all more stable. They’ll ask for $2000 to run it. Then my sparky gonna say its already to property, cable run and MCB is capable. He saw it coming. If its not free its just some $20 tips I hope.

But yeah everything grow is more than $200 be surprised.

I'll defo look into that. Don't know why i didn't think of that sooner to be honest it is my first grow after all.

Definitely worth it as long as it's the WiFi model. I'm on my third grow and I'm hoping this is my final set up that I will work with from now on, I have so much equipment I won't be using again so need to get rid but almost happy.

Yeah I work that way sometimes but I'm in midlands so do alot of travel!

Mate we should talk, cause I'm actually thinking about upgrading some of my equipment etc for my next grow, where I'll do a decent journal. Im using decent kit, but still on the cheap scale if you ask me. If your looking to sell maybe we can come to an agreement? Get back to me about that 🙏🏻

Be safe ✌🏻 👌🏻

Morning folks 🙏🏻

I hope everyone is dandy and the morning sunshine is beginning to glisten on those blooming colas of yours 🙏🏻

Two weeks ago I posted about flushing and put up pics of trichs. As advised by Bill and a couple of others, here I am a fortnight later.

In my unprofessional opinion, I'd say these two are ready for flushing? I can see a few cloudy trichs and they are looking super juicy now. Bit longer? Or go for the flush?

Could probably do with a mixed review of opinions here, please. 16 eyes are better than two?

TIA as always 🙏🏻🙏🏻

Have a great day growers

Be safe ✌🏻 👌🏻
