I would make yourself comfortable if your fanning them and moving enough air.Do you have a swamp cooler?100* or less my plants seem to do better using the cooler rather than the AC,they bring the humidity up a bit

no swamp cooler just a/c.

im pretty sure they are getting enough air; the cancan fan kicks ass.. i like watching the door get sucked up.

i will make my self more comfortable.. wont hurt them if they are not at 75 during lights out, and more like 80. then i wont freeze. heh.

i see what you mean by opening the branches up so more light can get to them to fatten them up. i will get some bamboo rods, and then use the pipe cleaner to bond them.

i figure next run, 3 plants in 7gallon wide pots... they will fit, may as well use the space with dirt.. or is this a bad idea?

Seven gallons is small for one plant to fill the area and big for three plants.the next run will move a long at a faster pace and the root ball may not fill a seven gallon . I have a 3ft by 4ft screen and run three or five gallon pots.with six plants i use 3 gallon pots with fewer plants to fill the screen i use five gallon because the plants will be older. some say a gallon per month of life is a good guide to go by. unless you have a drain the run off of seven gallon pots is more to dispose of.

or 4 in 5 gallon pots? My thinking is you fill the corners of the tent better that way. But I'm like Schultz from Hogan's Heros I know nothing !!!

i just noticed something while trying to dial in the temp that is comfortable to my plants and my self.

i have them set to come on at 6pm and go off at 6am,
but what im feeling is the a;/c has a harder time keeping it cold right now.. working double time..

if i would switch it so it was lights on during the day i would have much more control over the heat.

right now temps are 75 to 86f constant ( was 60s in there for a few lights out while i fucked with a/c temp.. hell i have to wear a flannel in side now because of these fucking plants, laughs ). just a random thought. laughs.

my plants are alive, so what the fuck.. i will get bamboo stakes this weekend and open the branches up so the buds can get more light.

chris.

jipp, been there.. I had my tent in my bedroom,, froze me out yet my temps were 80 at canopy, 76 ambient in tent.. 2 things changed that. I took my fan that is on my filter and moved it to a intake fan, and I purchased another fan, A VERY GOOD fan and put it on the exhaust. My intake i ran from a homemade vent that fit in front of my window ac. What kind of ac are you using? A window or central Ac?

EventHorizan · May 31, 2017

jipp prob checked out for the night lol... I see you on the flip, its almost my bedtime too.

ok, so i should go by plant size before flip to decide on proper pot size.

thank you,

lights on..

i will be removing the small plant tonight or tomorrow. i need to make room for the bamboo spikes.

i feed the afghans tonight. i caught the runt,and the 93 afghan on time. however, i should of feed the fat leaf Afghani more sooner.. i starved her. so, yeah go all kind of special afghans, reach for the stars.

wifi lemon aliens #1, and #2 are kicking ass.
with a very active ecosystem rocking down under in the rhizosphere.

PFK is doing what young seedlings do, nothing!

solo #2 is kicking ass, and taking names.

my jalapeno plant is growing its first leaf (not sure if two are suppose to come up like in herb, or if i have a freak.. something to investigate. not tonight tho im turning my brain off. before i forget more than i learn hah. ) and im gonna just treat it like a pot plant for now till i learn more about it.

bowl up,
chris.
