Couple of images from a few days back. Day 30 (12/12)
@Moflow uploaded via morse code took a few days lol
Dp2 has got some brown pistils showing. I hope this is not a result of the red light from the power sockets that are causing this or if it's normal.

Little update to the growing style, due to the hot weather the hempy buckets just had drainage holes drilled into the bottoms and now running as drain to waste.

Pythoff added to the nutrient feed and will run this for a few days just to be on the safe side of things.

Feeding will now be 1 feed per day, hempy was every two days.

Your grow looks class.

Scorchio!
I remember growing in a tin shed a few years ago, in hydro, fecken disaster lol
The water in tank was reading 39°C root rot city!
Even worse the owner would only flower in daytime as he thought his neighbours would hear the fans in the evening even though they were about 50 m away lol
Drained it down and ran a load of h202 through it, pulled all the rot we could get out .
Complete disaster.
A mate still uses it but he has a chiller in his tank.
Still like an oven up there today.
Ive a couple of diy hempys on the go now.
I'm the opposite to you, I taped up my drainage holes in the bottom of pots!
I use a lot of vermiculite in my mix in an attempt to keep moist longer.
I'd rather water every couple of days but I'm lazy :bigjoint:

@Moflow im flowering with lights on 10am-10pm max temp this last week at canopy was 28c really can't complain, air flow ducts in the cab walls work great. This keeps me at a good temp for day time under leds and at night it gives me the drop in temps the plants seem to like.
So yeah I grow in backwards mode lol.
Chiller is a given this time a year. Mine is back in it's box since I continue to get root rot in hydro every bloody time, so gave up on it for now.

I've run hydro in winter with a fish tank heater , keeps the room a bit warmer at lights out.

My lights come on at 5pm to 5am.
Grow room is in the shade by this time.
Last night at around 8pm the room was a nice 28°C

I run mine on timers cycling for 15 minutes on, 6 times per day. Using a recycling reservoir.

Couple a cola pics from tonight before lights off at 10pm.
Not the best images but to be honest I just can't be arsed in this heat. Will take better shots next time round, this heat wave can't last much longer.

Dark Plasma - (DP1) - Day 35 (12/12)
Budsites all linked together now and trichomes are sparkling away. Should start packing on the weight very soon now.
Some defoliation was done on Wednesday 4th July 2018 on both plants.

Dark Plasma - (DP2) - Day 35 (12/12)
You can clearly see the browning on the tips of the pistils here. This plants the one I'm concerned about growing a set.
Trichome production is well defined in this shot.

NOTE FOR MYSELF - Number of days in flower corrected in above post. I thought looking at the images something was just not right for the amount of days in flower.

Sorry about that folks.

OK took the DP2 out for another nanner check up and found one, so I cut open the bud to see what was inside and it looks like little green seeds forming inside. So out with DP1 and cut the top of a bud for a look see and again what looks like little bastard green seeds.

With that evidence they are getting chopped down today. Will bleach and re-paint the cab and then get my Dinafem Gorilla girls in the cab and veg for a week and flip.

Sorry to all that have followed along but that is this diary closed and will be marked down as a massive fail. Shit happens time to move on.

@Moflow if only we had xray cameras to spot the little seeds asap lol. Seeds seem to be about the size of the point on a drawing pin, should be fine once dried for smoking. Better to chop now than a weeks time when the seeds get bigger I think.

I'd the same problem with the CBD Critical Mass, one plant, about a dozen seeds total.
I'm gonna start taking off the fans on the Sensi Star original and the RQS Gorrillas today in prep for the chop this week.
Ive 4 x Sensi Star originals to replace them, they need moved like last week as they're 3" away from the cobs and are looking a bit stressed at the tops.
I might have to snap/bend the tops over for now
