Blazing heat, smoke-filled skies, illegal! What could possibly go wrong?

Man its 100 + 100% rh in the swamp here.
Id trade for that dry air about now in a big way.
Chasing out the rh has my lung room set on 62 degrees is getting old, and cold.
You outdoor heads have it made a mile high. Especially this time of year.

Yessir, spent 3 years in Joplin, MO.
There's a reason why they call it misery.

Gloves are off, Vegas! Mother nature is through playing! Ha ha ha ha! We’ll try and hang with you for a few days! Love your humidity though! Won’t get above 20% for the next week! Perfect!

I’ve had to knock my veg room tent down to 50% myself. I walked in & it was 91f
Got it down to 84 but I’m gonna have to sort something out permanently if I want to grow in the summer

 

[Oldchucky]

Yeah, indoors seem to be a lot more sensitive! Need a lot more mollycoddling!

I was getting up into that for vegging, plants didnt seem to mind it at all. Flower room on the other hand wasn’t really liking it! (Happened a few times forgot to turn my ac on)

About the veg room, i was just telling myself “these plants will sit out in the hot sun all day in those temps no problem” it was more of a whole room climate change also. i upped the humidity to match the heat.

 

[Gmix]

Yeah they didn’t look bothered I must admit something to mull over I did think veg growth slows down above 80f but that’s from years ago under metal halides guess I’ll see

 

[Gmix]

Actually, that’s wrong they was bothered. I remember why I turned it down now the plants were sweating.

I guess outside they get acclimatised to the heat

Yeah I had to adjusted other parameters accordingly, ran things hotter in the flower room with more humidity. i think i like the cooler temps for the indoor scene though : ) subsequent runs are going to be cooler overall, and back to the whole growing in summer!

sorry chucky for all this “indoor” talk!

you don’t grow inside at all ?

What do you do in the winter for smoke ; grow a ton in the summer to keep you going or something

I try my best at growing indoors : ) this year i timed the last indoor run a little late so it ran into the heat. My shed just isn’t cut out for a full mid summer run. So i plan on getting (3 runs) in over my fall/winter/spring season. This year im trying to get an outdoor supply just to have as im still not maximizing my indoor yields (these are the next runs though that ill achieve that! I hope!) im getting there.

Not a ton! Six or 7 pounds! Then play with it during the off-season! Haven’t weighed anything in years! All I know is it’s enough!

It’s cool bear! Nothing going on here except watching the grass grow and drinking beer and swatting flies!

I figured as such! Likewise and you know that : )

Im building a drip line system for two plants at a time as that’s what i have for spare parts! Hahahaha!

I'm out there every hour or two watering/spraying containers. I have a little portable mister, the bigger one that's tied into my irrigation system and a plain old hand pump sprayer. I'm staying on top of these two and they have responded positively. If I can pull it off I think next year is gonna be a much bigger success for me! This is one of my retirement hobbies so I'm taking it seriously

Right on Vegas! I’m sure we can come up with something over the off-season to make your endeavor a little more fruitful and a lot less labor-intensive!

Be careful putting all your eggs in one basket. I did that last year and lost it all.

This year I've got several different grow situations going on. And it's showing me how to improve what I'm doing.
Like, for me, leaning is going great, but Oldchucky's right about leaning them too early.
And my back acre may not be the best place for plants with the diseases around.

Good Luck, you have a totally different climate than me, but the observe and learn process is still the same. Just ask Chucky. LOL

I dropped my eggs and I’m down 3 plants. Can’t depend on anything!

My first profile picture was all my eggs in one basket… all over the floor!

Yeah, rough year, jimmie! The same thing could happen to me at any time! I don’t forget that! And has happened in the past! All you can do is soldier on! You will get something out of it! if it was always easy it wouldn’t be any fun!
