Hats of to doing the jump for charity.
Been reading ure thread, and not sure why i didnt say hi, and mad props to you bro.

Job done now, lol.

Ive always wanted to do it, but had no idea where to start looking into it. Id love to try it, and also try solo in future. Something im deffo gonna look into now, so thanks to you for the whole idea and also raising money for charity.

top bloke.

Have a great week ahead mate.
Stay safe bud

Cheers man, it felt good to raise the money and was surprised how generous some poor ppl can be!

Go for it man! No better way to feel alive. Going first time tandem isn't so bad as you don't actually jump and being strapped up someone helps. Now jumping out yaself will take guts but I bet it's a serious buzz! It was meant Tobe 10'000 but as it was a gorgeous day not one cloud in sky they decided Togo another 3000' higher lol tbh I was shocked how calm it was.. The whole ride from free falling and ejection on chute crazy. I took control of the reins and did cpl spins n shit felt a propa pro... Even landed on me feet lol. Worst part of it was going up in the tiny plane! Ha

Yep within cpl month ill be going up again, cost around 150 to have it recorded in HD

Also thanks for the compliments man bless up

looking good lex m8

Thank ya mate.

Few signs of over watering as I was feeding more as low RH and the root system couldn't take it, but I've super cropped them and they getting big.

:ying:

Have you sorted the humidity problem out yet bro?

No mate I havnt really got space to hang anything from, I've closed 1 inlet off and turned fans down and will see what it reads next time.

Quick question fella do I need to turn off the SMS controller everytime I changed the dials so it can rescan? And u think its best to have maximum temp at 26c or 30c isit very accurate?

Cheers famalam

Hi mate what type of controller u using? As your running an 8" you'll need a decent one like a variac but yes the SMS controllers are good if u use your controller at lights off as it'll turn itself down but when temps go high they'll kick in fully. A kilmavator or a precision speed controller u would need I think mate.

Does it only hum when turned down?

Shame on the jump bro funny as ya wieghtless up there lol

Bro get that fan on, a buy a fan from growell not the rvk but the new silent range they have it also has a built in speed controller 4 different settings And zero humm. It makes such a difference. £180 I think for the 6inch.

Hey bro, I just set the dials at the minimum speed and the temp at 27c and find it works well, as long as the fans can control the temps then the independent room temperature monitors all read the same as I set the sms.

If I had the spare cash I would invest in the mechanical version hands down as no humming and more accurate temperature measurements http://www.progrow.co.uk/acatalog/info_05486.html

Hello mate I was looking at these the other day and wondering the same - whether the built in speed controllers are variac based and therefore no hum?

Thanks for answering.

Peace

i would guess they are voltage controlled as the others make noise and lower the fans life etc.
i got a fan speed controller recently for about £90 which does a fantastic job. no buzz or hum at any fan speed.
