How much heat can Northern Lights take?

**Crypnotic** · 07-27-2010, 07:11 PM

Its was 98 degrees today where I live in Florida. My grow room got to 88 degrees. I'm growing NL. Question: how much heat can NL take w/out risk of damaging plant, stunting growth or herming? I hear NL can take heat better than other strains, but just wondering how much can they take? Thanks

I haven't taken my girls to flower yet but I have stressed them out a couple of times and they just bounce right back! I had a 12 inch on that was root bound and under watered and about 4 inches of the top was laying over. I watered her and within 1/2 an hour she was standing tall! Like I said I don't know if my noob first grow mistakes are going to bite me in the ass later but so far my girls have taken a beating and kept on comming back. GL with your ladies.

This my first grow as well, and thats why I choose Northern Lights. Its suppose to be newbie forgiving and they take the heat better than other strains. How hot has your grow room gotten? anything over 88 degress? If they look healthy, I would assume all is well except, high heat can can hamper growth or turn your bitch into tanny lol. I think its the stunting and herming I'm most worried about. Any experience peeps out there that can sooth my worries with "dont worry too much, NL can take temps up 90 degress" or something lol?

Dude youll be fine. My cab was at 95F for the first week or two, and even hit 100+ when my AC broke!! Now its grows at 88F and all is well! Super tight nodes and tons of foliage
