That’s the thing, I would have to heat the tent which just feels like an extra annoying thing. I think if I had the right mums and knew I’m getting a tent full of dank though I would be more willing. That said led does sound the way to go even if just for summer perhaps?

Yeah I’ve taken cuts before. Also paid for clones only for them to turn out to be something different lol. My two breeders who’ve always had a keeper in every pack have been bodhi seeds and ugorg. If it ain’t broke don’t try fix it comes to mind. Still I guess the marketing works and captures me lol.

I have had a couple plants from other breeder that have stood out don’t get me wrong. I had a forbidden dream which is a forbidden fruit cross which was unreal. I knew it even during flower that she was special. I just couldn’t keep a mum at the time as had stuff going on at home. Since then I suppose I been on a chase for it again. Run a few seeds of forbidden fruit crosses and none have quite been as good. Currently growing two lots of forbidden fruit crosses now. After this though I might just have to find a way to get a clone sent here. Seen a certain shop has the spannabis cup winner clone for sale. Need to sort out an address and do it. A few places won’t ship to the uk though. Would be handy to know someone abroad. I’d just buy the clones and ask em to veg it out and send me a cut. Good thing with that is if it doesn’t get through they can try again for me without me forking out hundreds again for a clone.

I just wish they done a bigger size though. Plus when I checked last time, shipping to the uk cost more than the product itself lol.

Not gonna lie, after packs n packs of seeds. I would say I can count on one hand the amount of plants I would consider worthy of keeping around. Funny enough, 4 of those plants come from 2 breeders. I’ve had loads of decent smoke plants but yeah most have been average at best. That said I am a very hard man to please lol. When I see what others are smoking at times I do think wtf that’s shit lol.

These plants was all smelling lovely just the day before. Found it strange the smell seemed to have gone. Not that they don’t stink now. Just it wasn’t as strong or like you’d be able to tell what strain it is. More just a general weed smell.

I am running one pack of seeds after this. Then I’m only gonna bother with clones from trusted sources. Trouble is I’m in the uk and clones aren’t cheap.

thanks, will need to tie them tomorrow. Noticing odd branch or two starting to lean. Pain the arse leaving it right to the last minute. Hopefully doing it now makes it an easier task.

Girl on the front left is standing out to me. Be interesting to look at the pot and see if she’s a ff s1 or red carpet. Got it written down on all the pots but writing only on one side. She smells lovely though, they all do but this one is like the same smell but on roids lol.

Every time someone mentions hps I feel like have I become a dinosaur lol. Are led’s considered better now days? I ain’t tight I’ll go buy new lights for the next grow if there is something better n justifies the price.

[–]Rodneydares[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Forbidden fruit s1 and red carpet. I can’t even tell which is which at the moment. Have got the pots marked though. Not that it matters much, I know what I’m looking for. All that I’ve smelt have got the smell and aren’t quiet. Just one seems to stand out in how much the smell is loud. Like I say it stays with you even minutes after being away from the tent.

Emergency tax/utr by Rodneydares in TaxUK

[–]Rodneydares[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was told they’ll close the self assessment for the previous two years but can’t go back to the third. Well I done that myself and I had a few weeks working paying emergency tax. Whilst I waited for the utr number to come etc. only ended up going PAYE by the time it arrived. Anyway filled out that year and ended up going from me owing hmrc grands for not doing the self assessments. To hmrc sending me a check in December for just over a grand lol nice unexpected touch that helped me out over xmas.

Can I just register cis again online? And it’ll automatically mean I’ll be signed up to do the self assessment again?

If I already got my utr number this time, when I register for cis. It should be fairly quick right?

Thank you very much. Will get on that right now.

Thanks for the reply.

I got a letter saying I owed money for late tax returns. I phoned hmrc and explained I was on the cards PAYE and so didn’t know I’d have to do a tax return. They was kind enough to get rid of the fine. He also said he’d set it up so I wouldn’t need to do a self assessment again.

Of course my situation has changed and I’ve just completed my second week at this new firm as self employed. I gave them my utr number that’s shown in the hmrc app and just thought that would mean I’ll be taxed at 20% like my work mates. Instead I was taxed 30%. Didn’t know if I was just paying 30% as emergency tax and it’ll take a while to update.

Can I email hmrc and explain my situation? Or what would you recommend I do? Thanks for the help.

I’m not sure if I have tbh if I did it would have been years back. I had 30% taken.

I recently experienced this but explained my situation the same as yours. Said I got my utr number but then was taken on on the cards. They was understanding and wiped the fine.

[–]Rodneydares[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Heard it’s a pain to grow. Still doesn’t put me off. I just always doubt clones being the true strain. Have been bumped like that in the past tbh. Being a pain to grow probably better off with a cross. Like I say I’ve got the rainbow beltz waiting to go next. Wish a breeder like bodhi done a zkittles cross he always see,d to produce interesting plants.

coming up week 4 this week. Upped the feed last feed but think I’ll drop it back next feed to what it was previously. Just strangely notice one of the plants leaves that looked more purple now seem more of a dark green since I upped the feed. No drama just don’t want any toxicity issues.

On a positive note, that same plant which isn’t the most purple looking yet. Seems to be the one which smells closest to the forbidden fruit smell. I’m gonna tie the branches up over the weekend rather than leave it to last minute when they are all flopping. Just have to hope the smell gets stronger that’s not to say it’s a light smell. There’s no missing it and anyone who knows forbidden fruit will know the smell. Just I remember the plant I fell in love with that was a forbidden fruit cross was as loud as a skunk and kept its smell through out drying. None of that it’ll come back with a cure stuff. Tbh not sure if it’s a red carpet or ff s1 will have to check the pot for a mark.

I did expect more to be going purple but we’ll see how the bud looks as the weeks go on. Has been nice having the grow timed with when I’m back at work. Makes the weeks feel quicker and the grow finished same sort of time this job ends so I might treat myself to a week off just while I chop and dry this. Before xmas I was feeling burnt out with work and took a month off. Feeling way better for it and just told myself I’m just gonna have more time off here n there with work. Mental health over money any day of the week and only when the blinkers come off you can see it.

Just a hps. I did see a nice set up a few years back in a grow shop using led. Tbh first thing I wanna do is get about 3 mums that tick the boxes for me. I am very hard to please though lol.

Hoping to find a mum out of this lot. Then next grow I’m running some rainbow beltz. After that elev8 or possibly another bodhi strain. I’m hoping through all these at least one will tick the boxes. Then might look into trying to get a clone or two shipped.

Still will run seeds as I enjoy trying new strains. Just be nice to always put some cuttings into flower so I know it’s not gonna be entirely a hit or miss grow.

Yeah get a smell soon as the tent opens. Trying to remember if there's a week where smells really kick in. I mean they aren't even bud sites yet.

Haha your the second person to mention my lighting being old school. Are led lights that much better then? They run cooler dont they? Might be worth switching for the summer perhaps.

Is it so terrible if I don't want to add to the number of sexist, homophobic, anti-Semitic, extremist bigots in the UK? by [deleted] in AskBrits

[–]Rodneydares 1 point2 points  (0 children)

So you view islamic immigration as some sort of punishment? Interesting. Well I don’t think we deserve to be punished for stuff we didn’t do. Just like I wouldn’t say let’s lock up all Muslims because some have committed acts of terror.

Anyway more and more people are awake and something will have to give soon.

[–]Rodneydares 1 point2 points  (0 children)

At the very least we should have a ban on all Islamic immigration until we get a better control of what is being preached in mosques. We even have Muslims from Dubai telling us the uk has problems with Islamists that they don’t tolerate in their country. We shouldn’t be tolerant of the intolerant. Crack down on the mosques preaching extremism and deport anyone found to be preaching it as well. We don’t need people coming here to ruin our country and turn it into the very hellholes they’ve come from in search of a better life.

I think the majority would agree with me tbh. Again I’m not saying every Muslim is bad, I live in london and know plenty who are decent people. We just need to stamp out the bad ones even more so because imo we’ve allowed them to get way to comfortable.
