Hey Pnasty,View attachment 2541189gorilla glue #4
Hello there and thanks for the feedback!Hey Pnasty,
It looks as though you have your lady in a bit of a large container. Is that true? I can’t tell from your picture. I usually start my seedlings in a red solo cup. You may also want to consider going with less H2O.Seedlings can develop root rot pretty easily. What is your lighting situation? How long per day? Do have any fans in your grow area?
I meant less stress on the plant instead of having to re pot itAlso in response to the big pots, yes I do. But i germinated them in paper towels until they sprouted, then had my lights very low to the buckets until all the sprouts had good base leaves. After they were all solid plants and ready to grow, I moved the lights up until the lux reader said the canopy was getting the right light. I started them in fox farm soil and 5 gallon buckets to make sure I didn't have to re-pot and stress the roots. I dont get why starting them in something smaller would benefit the plants at all. If the water, light, humidity, temp, nutrition and all that is good, the bucket size shouldn't matter. If anything i think it would be better putting less stress on the plant by re potting it.
The idea of starting them off in something smaller is to concentrate on watering them with just the right amount of water. I start my seedlings in Root Riot plugs. This makes transferring them very easy with no stress on you or the plant.Also in response to the big pots, yes I do.

Root riot cube all day long pop the tap root in bang in a humidity dome let them have a good two three weeks then transfer them into there finals watch them go ! There’s to much soil around them baby’s roots die off so fast it’s phenomenal good if she’s big and regrowing them baby’s don’t they lose them and that’s is you’ve a 50% plant before you’ve even started get to week 5 6 and think man these are tinyThe idea of starting them off in something smaller is to concentrate on watering them with just the right amount of water.

That’s actually a really good idea spin it so you can have the door open all day probably all night too if it’s dark enoughDo they have to be in the tent?
Maybe rotate the tent 180° and leave the door open since it would then be facing the wall?
Seems like THAT A/C would allow you to keep meat fresh in the room.
If the room is your envelope then just blow enough envelope air into the tent to make the climate in & out the same. Probably take a good amount of air movement but it HAS TO work. Exhaust the "used" air outside.
Good luck. Sure seems like an easy fix.
If your thermometer is in the tent under the lights it's likely reading 2-4f higher than the actual air temperature. Also I don't see an exhaust fan, the temps are going to be impossible to keep under control if you're not exhausting the hot air out of the top of the tent. I would go with a 6" fan, my 4" can barely handle a 3x3 and it's loud AF.Im in an upstairs appt so it's always hot anyway. If I cool off the whole room it still doesn't change the inside of the tent temp. If I blow a fan from the ac unit through the air tube, it stays around 86° in the tent. If I turn the AC on, the tent temp drops to like 72, then the air stops and it goes back up to like 84°, then stops and goes back down . Over and over all day. I need a solution to this problem! Then I think ill be good to sit back and watch for a while while they get pretty!
