20 degrees when lights off 24 when lights onLooking good! What temps you keeping them at in veg?
Got them on 18, 6 light cycle20 degrees when lights off 24 when lights on
Nice growth for the short time, autoflowers?Just a few pics of my girls into the 4th week of veg I an a week behind due to personnsl circumstances but I'm doing my final transplant on Monday and then I'm going to flip them to flower on Sunday, how are they looking too Any seasoned growers
Push the temps up to 30 when lights on and you'll get a lot faster growth in veg20 degrees when lights off 24 when lights on
Really ? I was under the impression that they liked it warmer when in flower, now I'm still relatively new to growing so I may be wrong, right now I'm only running my light at 400 w, I was gonna wait until I flipped them, then turn my light up to full power, in turn raising the temp, have I got it wrong ?Push the temps up to 30 when lights on and you'll get a lot faster growth in vegjust be aware you'll have to water & fertilize them more often as well.
Drop the temps back down once you flip to flower.
No photos palNice growth for the short time, autoflowers?
You got it backwards my friend. Think of it in terms of natural conditions outdoors: hot in the summer (plants in veg) and mild in the fall (plants in flower). Hot conditions during flowering can actually cause a lot of problems.Really ?

Obviously I believe you you'll be alot more experienced than I am but I'll put a photo up of what I read and that's what I've gone off, now I've had under lights running at 400w for 4 weeks now, will it of made a huge difference, ?

Everything there matches my experience. Also, the most volatile terpenes found in Cannabis evaporate at temps above 20C. I recommend flowering at 20C for sure and let it cool down a bit when the lights are off.Please note temps above 80°F (26°C) in the flowering stage will slow down bud growth and may cause them to become airy and loose. The heat can also reduce the potency and smell of your buds. Keeping the grow room temperature under control is especially important in the flowering/budding stage!
In the heat, cannabis is also more susceptible to many problems, including spider mites, white powdery mildew (especially if it gets humid, too), root rot, nutrient burn (from increased water transpiration), increased stretching, wilting due to root oxygen deprivation, and reduced “smelliness” of buds (as terpenes can burn away at higher temps).
Sounds like you might need some ventilation. There are plenty of electric options out there but you could also try passive ventilation with the right setup/situation, by putting a vent at the top of your grow tent/closet/room and one or two at the bottom of the side. The temp differential will pull hot air out of the top and cooler air in from the sides, just slowly. But it might be plenty for your setup. Just make a light trap with a box with one side cut out around any vents you make if light pollution might happen.Sorry but you've really got me thinking nowI appreciate it but if I turn my light down 660w to say 400 w to bring the temp down won't that effect my yield? Now I've turned my light up it's at 29.2 degrees and rhe only way I can rhe temp back down is to alter the light wattage
Thanks I will give that a goSounds like you might need some ventilation.

Also if it's dry where you are you might be able to use an evaporative cooler to bring temps down but it will increase humidity and, of course, it costs money, water, and electricity to run.
I appreciate it but if I turn my light down 660w to say 400 w to bring the temp down won't that effect my yield?
Hi they are cloned, sorry if I seem thick but what is a larf ?Yes, you will have a smaller yield if you dim your lights. Could get more larf.
Are these clones or seeds?
I've just looked it up and it's all the shotty little buds which I don't really want lolHi they are cloned, sorry if I seem thick but what is a larf ?
ShittyI've just looked it up and it's all the shotty little buds which I don't really want lol

Yeah they are alright for when you run out of decent bud or making edibles but thats about itYeah. They are not dense, they are light, fluffy buds.
