Growing Under 250W HPS at 34C

[faithlessxxx]

Strangely enough, they are looking nice. I'm beginning to wish that I'd let them veg for more than 10 days. Found 2 hermie flowers though, but I've coped with that before. easy if you catch them that early, and if they only show slight hermie traits.
That'll be an effect of the heat, of course.

Yea that ul make sense! the 250 seems to be putting up a good fight mind!

[faithlessxxx]

Yeah, really lol

hey bro, i bought a evaporative cooler unit for $120 at lowes and it brought down temps about 5 degrees and added humidity. My harvest temp was around 84F and the budz were still very good size. So I dont believe the temps will harm as long as the roots are kept cool.

Funnily enough, I bought one of those a week ago too, lol.
Doesn't register much on the thermometer though, but it feels good on the hand:

Faithless, your plants look delicious and very healthy.
Evaporative cooling is dangerous in a grow room- watch for the increased risk of mold. Check that your humidity stays below 50% at all times, preferably at 40% or less.
It seems you have already discovered a major risk of high temps in flower- herms, yuck. Keep on top of those nanners!

looking tasty.

Thanks! Yeah, I'll be checking that dead leaves aren't going black on me
The buds are starting to swell nicely, just have to make sure nothing or little gets pollinated for the next 3-4 weeks.
Getting sticky too.

I took a long look and I estimate between 20-30g dry per gal.
Thats not bad for 10 days veg under these conditions. I bet I'd be getting 30-35g per gram under better conditions, 10 days veg.

Good strain obviously, and I've got clones from them.
I've been offered to join a 3 000W room, these clones will be marvellous for that. Plus, in that op, they'll be vegging for 2 months, waiting to get into the flower room.

Check it out, I just had a brainwave. I just trained all the 8 colas in 11L tubs directly under the 250W light. (The leaf burns are actually from spilling nutes on the leaves). Need is the mother of all inventions.

Those look GRET!!!!! Have you tried to run the flowering light during the night???? That is what i do for runing the temp. donw, cheers!
