Weather has become mega mild, humid and overcast with temps being forced up to around 30C in my main tent. Been trying different things to keep the temps below 30. I`m only running the dehumidifier at night during lights off, etc. Lights at 20-22" above girls but even with good strong airflows and periodically wafting the tent like a demented Punkah Wallah it has been a tad tough. Heat is coming down outside now and today things are becoming easier however the girls are showing the effects of some heat stress though considering what they`ve been through I`m very pleased so far. I`ve downgraded feeds to every third watering or once a week now to prevent potential nute burn, the exchange of CO2/ Oxygen due to airflow oscillation is robust and AC isn`t an option. Think the seaweed and molasses I use to brew a non feed compost tea watering solution is also helping with recovery. Feeling remarkably sanguine even with the vast plague of flies squatting in my house at present. I suppose I`m just enjoying growing for growing. I don`t really care too much about yields. As long as it`s not embarassingly minimal or shite I`m chilled as I produce enough to meet my needs so it`s nice just to grow without the worry. Bit like life really, my aim is to go through life so slowly it starts going into reverse .
Pic 1 shows Chem M....It`s been a fortnight since she was flipped and a week to go before next and last defoliation. Lights are going up as she does but I reckon the heat has hit her
Pic 2 shows Bud Bud on the left, Purple E is on the right. One week post defoliation and flip.
