Nothing wrong with fabric pots If you water correctly, it’s only when you water to fast as many do it becomes a problem. It’s better to water slowly in plastic or fabric pots.

By “ closer “ I guess you mean closet
80f is ok above is not so great but 80f is fine. If your now growing new seeds they do like it nice and warm.

The only way I can think of to lower the heat would be getting a bigger exhaust fan.

I grow indoors in tents. Extremely hot and humid in my area. I use in-line exhaust fans. Multiple oscillating fans.

A window unit AC is what allowed me to grow this summer 👍

Good luck

I’ve a big massive thing that blows freezing cold air out and pushes out hot air I hooked it up so the hot air blows outside the name skips me.
I had to throw it in the tent during summer.

Depending of what type led you have you can take the drivers off them and put them outside. It’s not a complicated job the cord needed is just the same as a daisy chain and doesn’t cost much.

So tell me what you guys think so I open the closet partially covered the opening with a black garbage bag taped it up and now I got it to mid-70s but the door has to stay partially open but like I said it's covered by a black garbage bag
Any thoughts????

take your plant out, you go in and cover it up with lights out, can you see light coming in?

Currently there no plant inside just doing a test run!!
But I will definitely do that...
So if no light is coming in I'm good to go? With this idea. I will share a photo later when I get there

Generally that would be the biggest concern, does it have a 12 hour uninterrupted darkness cycle (or longer depending veg or flower)

also keep in mind for temps, if you are under LED they like low/mid 80's

I'm growing autos and previously I did a 20/4. Cycle think of trying a 19/5 cycle I thought high temp was only for seedlings (and of course high humidity)

and LED lights like it to, it has to do with IR/UV and well.. rather than butcher it below are two interesting reads for LED users..

also my .02, when I ran autos they performed better when I gave them more darkness, I ran mine 16/8 but that was just what I thought I saw

Interesting Info On Led Growing

I did some research yesterday and found info that suggests that led fixtures should be run about 10 degrees warmer than HPS or anything with IR wavelength. The scientific reasoning behind this was that IR wavelengths add a good amount of heat within the actual leaf structure beyond that of...

Why we should be running Higher Temps for LED lights

Something ive been wanting to bring up and discuss as a side topic in its own thread instead of jumbling it into the “Cheap LED Strips : A Viable Alternative” thread to avoid congestion. So to the point when running LED lights we should be running higher temperatures than one might figure...

Also I may have dried too long idk if that effected the taste I didn't 14 days but some braches was braking when did snap test

Try this next time, weigh a nice size cutting until it stops losing weight, then jar for curing. Always cures at 60%. My notations next to the scale are for weekdays, Morning & Night.
14 days was overdried if you are at 55% humidity in the jar.
