what you all think?
just got fans running for about 1 hour now. waiting out storm to power up lgihts again.
fans...5 of em
plus 2 in the hood. 1 sucking from high in the room, the other pumping into attic.
6 weeks veg under 148w of shop light floros.
so far only 4 days under 400w MH
I messed up trimming (what I thought was topping) I trimmed the fan leaves 2 at a time for many many many many times during the first month.. ooops...
I want to know about what temps and humidity levels I should sustain. currently 82-88 with door open. 89-93 with it closed.
thx

Humidity levels stay in the 40%'s for most part, drop into 30's when need water..
last 24 hours
high 92.7 / 61%
low 80.8 / 29%
humidity level high from open doors n windows during storm winds after power went off with out MH light on. 82 / 61%
Current temps with door open
82.9 / 41% humidity.
This temp is taken floor level under the shop lights between the 8 pots.
thx

Your humidities are right but do not let your temp go over 90 infact I keep mine stable between 70 and 85, Ive never gone higher than 85 and anything above is WAY too hot for your babies

Thats tough to do. high 90's on most days, gonna be more over 100...
keep the AC on at 76-78 which flows in the room while door is open during the day.
at night have the AC at 74. but the door is closed. its in the 80's outside at night
should this moveable tempature gauge be in some other area? its not in direct MH or Floro light.
right now
84.6 / 40%
hall thermo set to 77

All I can say is try your best, cause when you hit the 90 and above is too hot for your girls, so whatever you can come up with try to makeit happen and trust me the results will show, especially in your growth your stagger and nodes

another thing to keep in mind is that the plants will handle the hi temps if there is plenty of humidity to go along with it.I live in Australia so not shore on f ,what i do no is it is very hot here in summer so my smalll grow room gets up around 38 degrees c do the converion i think u will find that very hot ,but the humidity is around 80%.Have a vacume fan in and one out.Watch the a/c dosent take away to much humidity..I keep a keen eye out for fungeses & dont have ant problems realy...Happy growing....

nah texas
power had just gone out for just a little. think read MH should have a break after powering off. ?!? sooo gave a little longer.
thinking bout running MH off for a 6-8 hour or so few times a week..cool em down and slow em down abit....like bed time till early wake up. but running the flouros still that got this far. only wanna do this cause they looking soooooo much bigger soo much quicker..
temps
85.8 / 39%

Indicas will show preflower generally week 8-9 around 3node from top. Look carefully, you probably wont see hairs, but can be distinguised. sorry I don't have a pictures for description. Noticed you are using reflectix on your walls. They reflect heat more than light. I use it on my ceilings only. Suggest covering walls with something else even if it is just the white walls behind it, it may be a quick fix just to tear it down and save a couple of degrees maybe. Good for ceiling though, keeps exhausted light heat in attic.
