sub zero

its freezing and it sucks,am trying my best to keep these girls warm ,i dont think i have long to go but am pretty sure the next couple of weeks are going to be crucial to the condition of my buds,some fan leafs are going black at the tips,they have not been fed much nutes and am trying to lay off the water so not to freeze up the roots the insulation is poor ,its pretty basic stuff 250w lamp with a small oil filled radiator in the tent to keep the temp up off the freezing mark its due to hit into the minus teens this week again they have been on flower for 7 weeks ,white widow and blueberry,the trichs are starting to turn amber to which am pretty sure is a good sign,but am starting to getr stressed outadvice and opinions are welcomed .so take a look and let me know what you guys thnkbecause i was wanting them to be cured for santa comingbut am not sure if they will be ready

Wont be long and you'll be harvesting !! They look good to me. I use a small space heater in my grow room that I bought from wally world that costed like $40. Maintains a steady 80f.

thats cool man,am really sweating over the cold messing them up,i reckon maybe 2/3 weeks could go a smoke with santa though!yip am defo going to be busy with the insulation job after tis lot is done and get right on ot for spring when this place thaws out.

Nice man( Big widow lover ), had a similar setup last year, with same type of lil oil radiator, my temps got really low at times, but i managest it somehow, had blankets covering my tent , a lot of them, and had fan blowing form down straight to the radiator, moving warm air straight up!Worked pretty good i think, i got to flower up to 10 weeks + plus...Anyways, hope it works out for you...

am struggling to keep the tent above 12c its cracking me up.

Try one of these:

They're oil filled radiators. They use anywhere from 500-1500 watts but are very safe and effective for ambient heat.

I doubt you're having humidity problems in the middle of winter if it's that cold where you are, but another option is a dehumidifier. They pump out warm, dry air. I run one 24/7.

Lookin' good though, man!

they look really good. be careful not to over water at this point. other than that, keep doing what you're doing for 2 more weeks.

nice on guys,minds a little at ease now,fingers crossed it goes well,

heres an update on the battle am running against the cold 12 days on ,most the leaves are drying up and falling off,most of the trichs are turned a bright orange,am pretty sure about another week or 10 days till ripeness,thoughts and opinions welcomed

Looks pretty good, do you mean the pistils are turning orange, or are you looking at the nugs with a magnifying lens and seeing orange trichs?

Hey man, they look really good, better than I was thinking they might. I thought the cold would've stunted 'em, more, but I guess I was wrong, eh?lol
