First Grow! : CFL/HPS 8 Plants

Well, I have the door open 12 hours a day. With three fans and a humidifier. The temp sits right about 78 all day. But then I have to close the door since I have two plants flowering right now. And I have to turn off one of the fans and humidifier then. Average temp at night is like 86. It was 90 this morning. Too hot. Oh and I got 15 pucks. 30 bucks on ebay.

Just got my third and final order from the doc, 5 feminized Skywalker, 10 Nirvana Bubblelicious, and 10 Nirvana White Widow. I'll only be growing two of the Skywalker's for now and save the Nirvana's for my next grow.

And what do you know, I just opened up the Skywalker and seeds went flying everywhere lol. Not to mention I could only find 4 of the 5. Oh well. I just put two of them in to germinate. Both of my Cali Indica's have sprouted and been repotted, still waiting on the Purple Wreck. I'll post pics later, I'm off to go look for some sort of A/C unit.

As well you should be lol. Well, apparantly I missed the summer supply of fans since home depot didn't have shit. Guess I'll have to find one online. I didn't really want to have to wait for it to be delivered but oh well what can you do.

been hearin good things about skywalker
grow them bitches

Oh I will haha. I got a few more coming from attitude (in case the doc didn't come through). And I think I might end up getting this Amazon.com: CV-600 Super Cool Evaporative Air Cooler - NEW Editors Pick: Home Improvement seems to be the only one small enough to fit in my closet, since I'll have 8 12x12 pots in there soon.

Cant believed u fumbulled the ball. LOL. How is that tent cumming along?

cool i just placed my Big Bang,Aussie Blue and Caramelious. got a new grow house in the mist.

As long as you can cool the room.
are you getting fresh air in there tho?

Oh no it's cool. I found the other seed. Was just hard to find in the carpet lol.

Yeah, I got plenty of fresh air during the day while the door's open, temp sits at 78. But at night the door has to be closed so no, there won't be any fresh air coming into the room. Will that thing be usless then and just circulate shitty air or will it still cool the room?

whats the BTU on that thing? Oh yea when u talk about the heat issue is that in the direct light or the room temp? Im still new and my temps are not perfect eithere. 73-86. my in direct light temp getts up to 86 but the tent temp is 83 . Should i raise the light.

2100 BTU's, 600 CFM. The temp I'm talking about is in the tent. Mainly becasue it has to be zipped up and it's not that big inside, making it so hot. There's no heat from the lights in the tent, they're just CFLs

they say they drop temps by 12F

I had the same prob in my veg room. its in a small 3x3 closet. I had to leave the door open and im in a apartment too. Talk about being paranoid. LOL That why i had to ivest in a tent

No worries, write whatever you want. I already got 10 pages on day 10 lol. Where does it say it drops by 12 mane? And what watt light are you using sty? I got a chart I can check.

600w MH Dont know any thing else cuz my hydro store didnt ethr. Its was in a plane white box. They said it has like 55k lumens and a 6kelvin good for VEG

Nah if you raise it anymore the plants aren't going to get enough lumens. It should be anywhere from 6-22 inches away. I would actually lower it lol.

Dropped it down to 15" lets see how she looks in the morning.........Im out... Peace
