Originally posted by stonedassassin1319 View Posthow can i deal with temperature with a 150w HPS grow light (without cool tube)????? i have no way of keeping my 2x2x6 tent cool. every time i leave that light on and come back to check on my plants the temp is at low 90’s i fee like my babies are getting burnt up. i’ve put a bandana, right under the bulb not too close so it looks kinda like a hammock but with the 4 corners individually stuck to each corner of the metal part of the lamp with magnets, as a shade. it kind of helps with temp but now my girls don’t have direct light hitting their leaves. i have a portable AC but it’s expensive to keep running since it’s a 8,000 BTU ac. i got 2 plants growing one is like 12 inches tall i didn’t mainline it cuz i didn’t know what that was til now and the other is 5 inches tall. the stem is still weak right now and idk when to main line that one . both plants are kinda dropping due to wind burn (YOU CAN STOP READING NOW THE REST IS JUST ME BLABBING)
the supplies i have:- 2x2x6 grow tent
- cloth pots (just transplanted my 12”)
- nutrients (big bloom, grow big, forgot the other one)
- in-line fan, 1 ducting, carbon filter, and 8” fan
- 150w HPS light , a 45w LED blue and red lights
…i think where i have my tent its not really at a good spot . it’s in my bedroom and nobody is really in there and not much air circulation. my girl and kids sleep with the ac on so it gets cold in there over night only for awhile since i’m nocturnal i control the temperature in there but there’s those times where i sleep at night for like 5 hours wake up at like 1 am. i talked about moving the tent to the dining room area where there a window and the temperature is perfect and i can maintain everything but she trips when she was the one that impulsively bought me a clone for my birthday. so it’s only right to grow the clone the best way possible so it doesn’t die. so
update on my first . i think i accidentally mainlined her without knowing what mainlining was3 Photos

This is a little late chiming in but Big Foot Gold contains several beneficial microbial strains on top of endomycorrhizae. When it comes to fungus though I generally worry about establishment early on as the mycorrhizae should flourish alongside the root system naturally so long as conditions are correct. You could always brew your tea and add in a fungal inoculant to the dilution immediately before use as well.

I just switched two 8 w GDPs to 12/12 and the stretch in the first week is quite a bit. Defoliated them quite a bit too as they were really bushy. I fimmed them both early on so they are pretty gangly now and would be easy to manipulate. I made sure they have plenty Ca and N going into flower but then back off completely.

Hi all, im growing a single Grand Daddy Purple which is just about a pure Indica, its in its 4th. week of veg. Its a very bushy plant, I was wondering when I should switch over to the 12/12 flower cycle. I still want to weave the branches in and out of the.scrog net which I haven’t done yet, can do this after switching to 12/12, or keep it in the veg. state while spreading out the branches in the scrog net. Thanks.

There is a veg cycle called 12/1. It is 12 hours light, 5.5 hours dark, 1 hour light, 5.5 hours dark, repeat. This keeps them in veg, while saving on electric cost. I believe it was developed to confuse LEO when looking at power usage. If this keeps them in veg I think 1 on and 1 off would do the same. They need 12 continuous hours of dark to switch to bloom. If they were already in bloom, re-veg.

12 hr light period. I wonder how a plant would react to 1 hr on 1 hr off over 24 hrs for the flowering period?
I use a 50 w LED as a heat booster. It cycles at 82F. But the part of the plant closest to it always seems to do better. Maybe it's just the added light?
