You could try adding a little "desk" type heater and set it on a smart plug so it autos on at lights off.

Until you get the garage insulated, this is a good option.

I grabbed a nice size heater that auto offs at a certain time and temp

Get a soil moisture meter and water with it this way. 50% of your isssues will go away.

New Simplified Way to Water Marijuana Plants

To know if you need to water your cannabis plant get yourself a soil meter. Poke or drill 4 holes in your pot 1/4 way up from the bottom spaced around the pot...

Insulating the garage is the better option. Cheaper in the long run.

Drop the Recharge. You are feeding bottled nutes, so the Recharge is causing an overfed condition.

You think so I’ve been using it ever plain feed so far and up until now it seems ok

Yeah, I think so. Plus once its established, the Mycos in the Recharge will keep going on their own.

FWIW, my insulated garage holds an ambient temp of 45°F in February where I live. Still too cold.

I’ve been looking into a auto watering system so I can get more consistent watering overall

So I mean in the long run insulating the garage would be the way to go .. tonight will be in the low 50s and if I insulate and add a heater / ac maybe 12000 btu I’ll be golden.. can’t wait till I get the back house with central ac set up

Think this calls for a future side by side

Watering isn't an art. It's just super easy to over due and under due by over thinking it. Your plant and soil will easily tell you when water is needed.

My Bruce Banner which is in a 5gal plastic pot is drinking about 5gal of water a week right now. Some might say that's over watering but my plant and soil say otherwise.

Radiator heaters are the way to go. Imo. You don’t need all that dry air from the fan type in veg.

I much prefer the dryer air since the plants make their own humidity.

I’m sure you need all the dry air you can get on an island lol if you already got low humidity well…. You know… probably don’t need any additional dry air involved.

Ditto.

You know it.

That just means the plants will drink more water. No biggie.

When to water. Place the probe in the side of the pot at the 1/4 mark from the bottom and see where it reads.

 

[Saul.Goodman]

See how people fight over water and humidity. The shit is not an art and everyone does it differently.

Listen to your plants but listen to what these guys say . Their input is also valuable.

Can you calibrate that device?

A garage with no insulation.. and I was actually just debating whether it would’ve more beneficial to insulate the garage or get a heater / ac for the garage

I grow in a garage all year in VT. A heater is a necessity!
