Got this lil guy for my cab today. I was using an old mercury thermometer prior to this (first grow still collecting), I always kinda half heatedly questioned its accuracy it has said that my cab is consistently in between 70-80F.
I put the acurite in the cab about an hour and a half ago and just went to check on it. If it is accurate rite now my cab is sitting at 95F 15% humidity. This is day 7 of 24/0 and I was planning on putting them to 16/8 tonight. If they have been this hot the whole time should I worry about them? Or are they young enough it wont hurt?

They will drink extremely quick with the low humidity and high temp. If you get the temp down a bit, the Rh% will probably raise up some, but it will be dependent on other factors too.

Temp is high, but not out of bounds per se, I would be more worried about scorching the leaf tops more than anything.....Get the temp down, then worry about humidity, but mites love low humidity, keep that in mind, that is their playground.

They will grow fine during veg at high temps. When you try to flower them that high, they will suffer and grow almost no bud. They are much more sensitive during flowering.
