You could always try giving our pal @anon58740919 a shout to see if he’s got a spare colacube :thumbsup:

I kind of doubt it judging by the size of the Black Mamba I found in her drawer and I don’t keep snakes mate :sweat_smile::sweat_smile::sweat_smile:

It’s was a present from me to help slacken her off a bit :wink:.
Mate I dunno why you don’t just use tent for vegging and do the cupboard it’s in with some foil back boards and flower in it. You’d have much more room. :+1:

I’ve made something similar already mate, I didn’t want to bother @anon58740919 atm he’s the one that has been helping me along with my bff @Esrgood4u😅
I fancied one of them hangy upy cob things but could’nt really afford it atm so have just been buying bits here and there.
I found these the other day could you tell me what size I would need for my needs.

Cheers

It got rot because you didn’t have any air circulation mate.

Not being ignorant with not liking your posts lads,

I’ve ran out of likes to give :expressionless: I was up all night reading on here. I love the crack on here like it’s soo much more than growing weed.
