If I was going to do anything besides straight out change my light cycle which I don't, I would do like GNick does and reduce hours weekly before the flip after x amount of time in veg.
Hey looks good, I think a lot of us fight the humidity. I'm either adding or removing humidity year round, there's very little time through the year where they're at peace with the natural environment here on Nova Scotia's south shore......at least you have some heat...I have to add that too...... smoke one that always helps with my worry symptomsShe started 12/12 yesterday, flora nova grow/bloom +massive +epsom salt +great white.
40 second drip, 6:15am, 11:30am and 3:30pm. About 4 liquid oz runoff.
Lights on 6 am, off 6pm
81 - 84 degrees f
58 % rh
The lights put out more heat than I expected, I might start pulling outside air rather than recycling in the lung room.
An inbound atmospheric river makes me wonder if I’ll ever be able to find a stable temperature/humidity range
Plant looks happy, it apparent that the stretch is on. Yesterday, most terminal buds were below my cross strut support. Today, nearly all are about an inch or more above it
My mesh net is about 10” above current height, I presume I’ll see about a 15-20” stretch (75-100%). Is that within reason?
It’s getting fun, there’s something to look at every time I see her!

Yes, a dehuy and air conditioner are in the plans.Dehumidifier in the lung room.....
Do you have central air in your home? If so you should be able to control temperature in the lung room which in turn will control tent temps.
How do you like the FloraNova? I use it and I've had good results with it.
Awww Crap! I forgot he's in a shed. Yes....what PPC said.How much insulation did you put in the shed? Is there an A/C regulating the temps?
No AC, one inch of styrofoam with silver siding. It helps, but it could use more.How much insulation did you put in the shed? Is there an A/C regulating the temps?
As much as I like the performance I also like the convenience of an all in one solution.I’m impressed with flora nova. The plant here and the one in the bay area appear happier green than with the previous salt.
I’m in LA so I get actual heat in the summer but even then I worry that 1” of foam isn’t going to cut it when your shed is in the sun during your (delightful) summer months of 75 degrees.No AC, one inch of styrofoam with silver siding. It helps, but it could use more.

I’m growing in a uninsulated garage and even with 4” of foam I’m probably going to shutdown for a few months. The electricity bill killed me last summer.
I built out a garage with 2" R-tech and it stayed ice cold during the summer in the middle of the SFV. It had a 2 ton mini split cooling 6 double ended lamps.I’m in LA so I get actual heat in the summer but even then I worry that 1” of foam isn’t going to cut it when your shed is in the sun during your (delightful) summer months of 75 degrees.

My apologies, I thought I read Bay Area.My shed is in the central sierra foothills.
100+ degrees for months on end in late spring, summer and early fall. RH is measured in negative numbers during summer.
This is place is about as temperate as west hell. I’m excited to try an outdoor seed somewhere in the garden. But I digress!
Looks awesome!I built out a garage with 2" R-tech and it stayed ice cold during the summer in the middle of the SFV. It had a 2 ton mini split cooling 6 double ended lamps.

It wasn't my grow per se. I built it for a senior that wanted to get into growing to supplement her measly SS. Because of her limited funds we also went "off grid" with electrical since her home allowed it.Looks awesome!
Damn so I probably would be flying if I got the 1 ton split. Im rocking a modified 1200Watt portable split A/C until it breaks.
Do you notice massive spikes in electricity during summer?
I do have another plant growing at my place in the Bay Area.My apologies, I thought I read Bay Area.
You’re fucked!
You need a 1ton mini split and professional spray foam insulation. These are the two items I wish I spent money on before the wife starting reigning things in. Seal that thing up and run some c02.
I want to grow outdoors badly! I’ve been growing random plants in a spare tent indoors and also inside a lil cheap greenhouse outdoors. The plants outdoors always look bigger and healthier.
I use them outside double stacked. Top one gets a tote bag or 5 to 7 gallon soft pot. Works fine.Hey there, nice stuff I like the plastic pots...where did you come by them? I have milk crates but the gaps are too large for planters.
