Using a smaller intake fan helps the exhaust fan work easier and better. I run one intake near the floor at each light At low to half speed with a speed controller and exhaust with 2 fans at higher speed. This took almost 5 degrees off my canopy temp. I still need a dehumidifier but its my open humid basement not the grow causing the hifh humidity i deal with.

do you run them 24 hrs a day? maybe that part of my problem I only ran the exhaust 12 hrs during the daytime.

Absolutely. For constant environmental control as well as full time carbon filtration.

I adjust speeds to control temp.

ok that's it then, I'm not sure why I thought it was ok to shut them down at night
other than it worked up to this point and same as last year it went to hell at the last few weeks
I saved them but shit it was a nightmare

Amazon bout to get an order lol Fed Ex my friend
6" fan, duct and speed controller on the way be here Mon.

Nice! I can adjust temp and humidity very well with different settings with different weather outside. Experiment a lot!

I didn't know you were shutting it off at night either, at night is when you need humidity control the most, if anything turn it up!

It was working for me to an extent so I never questioned it till now ha
Environment control is part of the quest I neglected that part of the equation until now
And that why I love this forum 😛

UPDATE:
I ran the dehum all night set @ 40% with fans on too
It looks good this morning Temp was 75° and Hum was 37%
Now it is a steady 77° Hum @ 45% with dehum off

So far so good now I know how to fix this problem I am happy happy happy!

Thanks guys for all your help 😁

Today I noticed the tri's looking a bit milky
So I'm bored pic time lost my phone so borrowed my
wife's camera (was a shitty phone anyway)

Got some close ups too


The plants in the front (white pot, black cloth pot) are Holland's Hope
The 2 in the back are unknown strain I got from seeds of smoke I brought
The guy is super stealth being not so legal here so I dunno Sativa?

Week 8 >> Week 9 I picked a couple of popcorn buds
on the lower branches that I should have clipped long ago.
Drying them out 5 or 6 of em I started breaking em down tonight
and started to find some seeds 6 of em in all and they looked mature at that
So what the heck is going on????
tri's are mostly white but sparst on the holland hope's I took em from.
I am now confused 😟

Sometimes that will happen when a plant is stressed. Don't sweat it first grow you did great believe me, lots of first-timers never make it to harvest, the seeds are a bonus! Give them a couple weeks, and then they should be ready to plant ..enjoy!

Ya I think it was when I thought the more light the better and lowered them to 12" for maybe a week
or some issues with temp and humidity raised them to 24" when I seen not so many tri's on the HH

Installed the 6" exhaust fan yesterday WOW what a dif much more environment control

^ I thought it was interesting might try it, nothing to do with this thread though lol

OK going down the final stretch guys.
I am watering with plain water in these last days before harvest.
It gets tricky here @ day 102 into the tent grow
3 more days and it will be 9 weeks since the flip 12/12

I got some shots of the sativa plant at least I think it is
also close up of the tri's on that plant the one in the back.
They look milky almost 100% to me.
I also de-leafed it a bit maybe 30%
Here is pics 🤪

The last 2 are close ups are of the first 2 pics.

Check trichomes on the buds not on the leaf, Leafs finish earlier

My opinion those plants have 10 days to two weeks left

From what I can see this one looks a little closer you've got a lot going on there I guess LOL not sure which is which

There are 4 plants almost ready I didn't know how much more time so thanks

The front 2 are Hollands Hope the back 2 that you say are closer are from clone seeds of unknown strain
Yes I guessed that they where closer to harvest than the Hollands Hope are
Also tris are sparse on the HH maybe it's the strain I dunno
Blue cans are the sativa strain the white can and the black cloth pot are HH


Well with your input I guess I will give them nuites for a few more feedings
Maybe cut down to 1000 PPM and then 500PPM till they ready

Yes I put the 10 week old veg plants in the 12/12 tent so there are bout 10 Veggies in there lol

I read back there a ways you were looking for a cheap exhaust fan. I use bathroom fans, I box them up and add duct to both sides, one sucks the other blows, Cheap used under $10 I have one attached to the reflector 6"away from the light sucking the heat from the source and one adding air from a cool location if I need to cool the room.

That is very clever great idea!
