i find that most people when they hear noises or lights from a home. the first thing they are thinking is not a marijuana garden. we as growers i think are a bit paranoid in that fact. reminds me of a while ago when me and my wife were trying to move a bulky piece of furniture from one part of our apartment to the next, it was hell and took forever. the neighbors could hear us and told us the whole time they thought we were fighting and didn't know what to do. i would definately check out where the noise is and if it can be hushed. but i wouldnt think he knows the deal quite yet.

What is a good way to cool down the inside of my shed?
I am thinking about cutting out strips or squares on the walls and putting mesh...but where and how much??

Thanks bro, im real happy with it, cant wait to get my 3rd on the go now :)
Wow Pukka. That's just your second grow? Either way great looking buds man. Would love to have a taste. Damn internet restrictions... why can't we hook a vape to the usb on the computer and have our buds load a bowl on the other end.

What is an accurate method of taking the temp outside in the sun? I want to know how it really is in my shed. I know it is hotter than oputside as the floor in there and walls hold heat and block natural airflow.
Weather channel says it is 91* my temp by digital meter in shed says 104 and in the shade outside the shed I read 95.
The temps are actually taken in the shade which to me is not an accurate measurement. If I'm standing in the sun who cares if it's 95 in the shade, I'm not in the shade. Here is flori-duh it is nothing for it to be 130 in the sun. I use a remote digital thermometer for my grow room along with the other two that are in my grow room that do not have remote sensors. My humidity ranges from forty three percent to fifty five percent and my temps from seventy five to seventy nine. I try to keep my temps as stable as possible with no huge swings from lights on to lights off. During the heat of the day I run my a/c at seventy one degrees and at night right before lights out I turn it up to seventy five. I leave my eighteen inch fan running 24/0 and only run my other two fans when the lights are on. I've read where keeping your temps as stable as possible also helps to keep stretching to a minimum when switching to 12/12, who knows?

I have heard high temps past like 95* slow down growth and want to keep them lower for that reason. I had no problem with heat stress last grow, but wonder if I would have yielded more with lower temps in the daytime?:-?

Pukka, how long did you veg your plant to get eight ounces and what size container did you use? Also how big was the plant once it stopped stretching?

Bassman, temps over eighty slow down the growth of your plants. Sativas can stand higher temps and some actually need high humidity. My arjan's haze was one of them. It was constantly losing leaves they would dry up and fall off. I read afterwards that some sativas need between sixty and eighty percent humidity. Above eighty degrees the stomata ( the plants pores) start closing and slow down transpiration. I use two and three gallon smart pots and once the plants start getting bigger I need to water every day, if I don't by the middle of the second day they are starting to wilt.

Purple, puple, purple. Most of the plants that I see that call themselves purple, are only in the leaves, not the bud.

Here is some killing fields before the chop, as you can see, the bud is purple. Once dried it was a dark brown.
Nice man!! Gotta spread the love b4 giving it to H.U.
My GDP and other shit got purple leaves as you stated only. My Purple Dawg got all purple with green leaves though. If I grow purple I want to actually see purple buds too man.....

Well that explains why they stayed at the same height about as when they went outside.
I need way more airflow in my shed!!!!

mr west, I'm not sure what purple taste like but it is a very sweet smelling and tasting smoke. The shackzilla is sweet smelling and tasting but the killing fields even sweeter tasting but not as sweet smelling.

Bassman, what are your humidity levels? If you live in a place that doesn't get humidity much above thirty percent I would look into a swamp cooler.

This is outside I am talking about, would that still apply?




So I planned to rip out the shed floor (carpet orer rotten plywood)and found that it is cement under there!! I dont know what is worse cement or rotten plywood under shitty ass carpet??
I want to loser the temps and make the grow environment cleaner....

Inside/outside doesn't matter, what matters are the humidity levels. A swamp cooler is really meant for almost desert conditions. Ten to twenty percent humidity. Once the humidity reaches about thirty percent it starts to loose it efficiency. At fifty percent humidity they are about worthless.

inside the shed in the shade right now I am looking at 110*F and 12% RH

Outside the shed in shade 99.5*
