January 2015 Scroll down to the next post for details!

Guys our winner of POTM November & December 2014 is 4207365 If you could please PM me your details we can get your prize to you very soon!

Gave it some really deep thought GarethL, considering that you seem like a really good grower and all, so we finally came to the conclusion that we can definitely NOT take your word that your plants look amazing perhaps next time, but probably not

Defintely some capable hands. He's an accomplished grower with many good grows under the belt

Nope didn't flip them. My metal Halide started developing this really odd looking build up in the filament. Kinda like a greenish substance... so I stopped using the MH. This HPS is a Sunmaster Dual Spec which can be used for Flowering and Vegging, apparently.

Update at day 33 I've arrived home to some wonderful looking ladies! except the KK which has always been been a troubled child however she is showing signs of improvement :thumbups Many thanks to my mate who has rather fortunately (for his sake) looked after the plants really well!

Took these pics with my phone. One with the glasses lens in front of the camera's lens and one photo without the glasses lens in front. Major difference! Grow light: 400W HPS Without lens in front With HPS+ lens in front

Where are all the entries guys and girls? I have a pair of these myself and they definitely work no doubt!

Thanks StickyMo will definitely keep your feedback in mind :thumbups

Interesting turn of events in this case... http://www.news24.com/SouthAfrica/News/Lawyer-claims-KZN-drug-raid-was-illegal-20141231

Entries were rather disappointing again. Guys if you're sceptical about entering the comps please let us know why. It's a little hard to fathom why people are not so keen on free stuff? Feedback is key HOWEVER we will have a winner from the current entries. The poll will start now and will run till 05/01/15. The nominees will be all the entrants.

Happy new year to all our members!! Thanks to all of you for joining and supporting 420SA :thumbups Since the site started mid August we've had 253 members join with a total of 231 topics started. Lets hope 2015 will be a big year for the forum. Let's keep growing in more ways than one

No more entries here folks?? Entries close at Midnight.

Welcome wallis55!! We all gotta start somewhere buddy. I hope this forum will be the key to some successful grows for you

Day 16 Just giving an update before I leave on a short 2 week break. Luckily a mate will be looking after the plants while I'm away. That saves me a shit load of stress Will be taking them to him tomorrow so no more updates on this log for the next 2 weeks.

I'm no huge fan of CNN but these documentaries are worth a watch... Sanjay Gupta used to be one of the many cannabis skeptics, until he admitted on CNN that him, along with pretty much the rest of the world, were deeply misled regarding the harms and potential of cannabis. http://youtu.be/hrVXRZY1_x0 http://youtu.be/i2qFDb8LExo

When will we wake up and see the potential too? One Unlikely Nation Might Produce 10% Of The World's Cannabis - High Times With the death of Zambia's president, Michael Sata, at the end of October, the country is at a turning point for a new crop to drive their economy -- and that crop could soon be cannabis. Though no other African nation regulates the crop officially, Peter Sinkamba announced his candidacy under the Green Party banner with promises of doing just that. Though Zambia made it's bones on the copper trade beginning in the 1960s, leading environmentalists -- including Sinkamba -- have been calling for a new era of environmentally-friendly economic gains. His plan calls for the legalization of marijuana for medicinal use in Zambia, which would be a first in Africa and a major change for the generally conservative nation. The idea would be to export the surplus crops for profit, which he claims could be worth billions. Sinkamba seems to have the pedigree to actually accomplish the job too. In college he found himself as head of the student union and was ultimately expelled for organizing a protest against the government's funding cut to the school. Ultimately he was blacklisted from many jobs in the country because of his actions. Seeing entrepreneurship as his only option, the young Zambian began an exporting business which made him a few cool millions and had people coining him a "playboy millionaire." While the money was good, Sinkamba wanted something more for his country, so he ultimately left business to start the Citizens for a Better Environment (CBE). This is what led him to realizing his political dreams and ultimately to marijuana. “Historically, we’ve been the kind of people that have consumed a lot of marijuana,” Sinkamba told the Guardian. “It is massively cultivated across the whole country [for the black market] … So what we’re saying is, look, let’s come out of it and legalise it;" a plan which he surmises could allow the nation to capture 10% of the global cannabis market. International drug experts seem skeptical of his plan -- both in legal terms and economic terms -- which would require the ambitious Zambian to masterfully maneuver global drug policy to find loopholes for medicinal use. “When we look at the trends, the world is going in the direction of legalising marijuana,” Sinkamba explaine to the Guardian. “But we don’t want to be the last ones. We want to be the first ones.” Article Link http://hightimes.com/read/one-unlikely-nation-might-produce-10-percent-worlds-cannabis

This is the last of Newsroom's Dagga Debate for 2014. With the response they've been receiving I'm sure it will go on for quite some time BTL is back on with Ms Mpanga! Brace yourselves once again! Watch from 3:50

So you plan to have this grow going the whole time without your parents knowing? That's quite a large paranoia inducer in itself

Win a pair of Cultivator HPS Grow Room Glasses with METHOD SEVEN South Africa All you have to do to stand a chance to win is Answer 3 very simple questions - #See.Believe #MethodSevenSA 1. Why shouldn't you use normal sunglasses in under HID lighting? a) You might burn a hole in your brain. b) Sunglasses help reduce excess light, but do nothing to address the eye-fatiguing qualitites of HID lights. We know that our pupils dilate to allow more light in when our vision is darkend. Dilated pupils are open flood gates for UVC radiation, which sunglasses do not typically protect us from(because UVC does not reach us outdoors) c) You might get a sunglass tan 2.Which of the following Method Seven LENS types can crossover for use as sunglasses? a) LED b) HPS c) HPS+ 3.Why do you deserve a pair of Method Seven? Simply reply with your entry below this post using the following format as example: 1. a 2. a 3. I deserve to win this because blah blah blah.... Entries Close on 17/01/15 and the winner will be announced on the 18/01/15 Good Luck!!!
