If my math is right you have 164 actual watts of light. If you get even half a gram per watt you can yield 82 grams.

Maybe you will pull more than 3 oz? Not bad for a little plant under some home lighting.

Yes I'm hoping to Max this yeild this is a auto flower strain not sure if it's a White widow(fingers crossed) or might be a lemon drop my biggest concern is my temp is sitting at 32 during the day and then drops to 20.9 at night

You need to get the temps to a max of 26 celcius lights on for any decent quality.

I hooked my AC vent in the house to a 4inch hose and ran it in the tent. And have exhaust blowing out the window to get rid of the smell. But that was the only way here in Alabama to get the temps down. It was 98 degrees yesterday.

I do have a fan blowing in there and I blocked the area off so it's kind of secluded temps were never this high before any ideas for or lowering the temps?

Looking for a cheap way I don't have a ac unit also it's been getting colder here and heats been on so maybe furnace is making it to warm

Exhaust fan at top of cabinet going at least out of the room the cab is in and a low intake passive vent to being in cooler air from the floor.

And circulation fans between the canopy and lamp pointed up a bit to help keep things moving around and upward. Takes some experimenting to get it right.

I block all heat vents that end up heating my growroom in winter. They are maintained independently with radiator style oil heaters.
 
Also I have posted the miracle grow tomato on here npk looks like it might be to high any input on this?

Never used that product. You dont want slow release food as you have no control if there is too much. I think that is slow release.

I have grown tomatoes with the regular pink powder miracle grow and that would work at about 25% strength as regular fertilizer.

Maybe someone is more familiar with the bag you show.

WhT is correct temp in flower. I run anywhere from 76-79 during the day and it gets down to 67 at night. And my humidity is 30 sometimes 40 when I water plants.


Your temps are good. Your humidity is low. For flower that can be a good thing but the plants will transpire more so more care is needed for watering and fertilizing. Err on the side of lighter strength nute mix to be safe.

I would get a humidifier and shoot for 50%. Higher is good for younger plants and clones. But i see many growers adapt and do great out west with no humidity really. The plants adapt.

I can easily make humidity go up by turning the exact fan down. Like I said I’m in Alabama 97 degrees and 78% humidity EVERY DAMN DAY. It sucks
 
DUDE MY VERY FIRST GROW WAS FOUR 8w light bulbs from Walmart. And it worked. Fire bud not that big though but I also didn’t use any nutes for veg at all and never PH’d water.... lol yeah I got lucky. I have some pics of the whole process it was quit hilarious now that I look back on it. So I think your good man..
U should post the pics in another thread
