this are 6 SHIVA SKUNK, its a northern lights cross.

these pictures were about 3 or 4 days ago.

there is a lot of yellowing, but most of it is gone now after flushing, lowering the light, and continuously having the blower on, instead of on/off when we feel necessary.

February 13 Watered with 1 gallon water, 1/4 tsp. Botanicare Pure blend pro bloom (soil), 1/2 tsp. molasses.

Still noticing some curling, there are some burned tips, but i dont think they are spreading at all, the yellowing has gone down to practically nothing. nice green color now.

picked up a small heater and 2 more timers for the blower and the heater, we are having both come on at random times of the day when we feel it might be necessary.

humidity around 75, temp from 55-76 from last night around 11 til 4 today. trying to keep the temperature at a constant of 60 +/- 15, hopefully not dropping below 50 EVER.
