[Lowrider]

Well it's been a few days now the temperatures are still climbing it is never gotten this hot on any of my grows😧 but on and the the other hand, good news is with everything that's been done so far they're holding up holding their own I figure that 50% sativa is kicking in in the heat basically saving the 50%indica some are thriving while a couple have lost some fan leaves still vegin so not tripping yet but so far YES it is possible to grow in extreme heat I'll keep you posted 110 TODAY

Any thoughts on how to improve my lil gurilla grow ??

Wow LR, your plants look fantastic!

I disagree, Personally I think for how far along they are they could most def look better, the heat will kill your plants chances to produce a good frosty coat, as in trichomes, as in thc, as in potency. And I'm not seeing alot of frost if any, which is a sign you'll need to shift to cold temps fast.

Lowrider They're in pots, right? You might consider giving them partial shade during the hottest part of the day, but from all that I have read, as long as the roots don't dry out, cannabis will thrive in hot conditions. There are growers on here who grow outdoors in the heat on a regular basis.

We need to do some more research on this topic, but landrace sativas always grow in hot temperatures!

Aside from pushing cold air into your area i would suggest you have a small fan on the floor directly underneath your plants pushing air upwards through the plants & a second fan set equally high as your lights to push the hot air out. Just my 2 cents. I freak out at 81ºf

Also think of your plants stems as a circulatory system when a person is taller their circulatory system often has trouble however if you are shorter you have better circulation due to the fact that the nutrients or the blood of the plant doesn't have to be pumped longer distances to reach its end goal so often taller is not better

Roots need to be kept cool in extreme heat. Have you tried anything to help cool the roots? I've heard of people using hay as a mulch to help cool the root ball.
