GodBud,

It is perfectly normal for a strain to not be very smelly in flower. This is why I tell people who cannot afford, or don't want to build a carbon scrubber or ozone generator, to search seed banks or someplace, to find out what the varieties are that do not put off a lot off odor. There are some that are like that that still have high CB and THC content, and will still get you good and baked. Some others have a low percentage of THC, but if it's a choice between smoking an extra bowl or two and letting your neighbors know about your hobby, I'll take the first one. Beware though, the smoke smell is a whole different issue. People hundreds of yards downwind can smell what you're doing. Why no, I've never smoked on a golf course, why do you ask? Be patient, the reekage may still be a coming. If not, maybe she'll still be a worthwhile smoke.

GrowMe,

Depending on the strain, 95 is pretty high and it will most likely affect growth and yield. Sorry about that, I can understand what you're going through. That's one reason I'm on my third remodel, and much of my ducting is behind a wall. This is why I tell people plan on spending as much on venting as you do on lighting (at least for HID).

I too have thought of air conditioning, but that draws a lot of power usually, and it would be my last choice. I would much rather spend the money on another fan and some more ducting, or paying someone to cut a hole in your wall, or whatever it takes to properly vent the grow so there is no heat problem. Also be sure to use the straight, smooth, actual ducting material instead of the coiled dryer duct whenever possible. Believe it or not this makes a huge difference. It completely solved my heat issue in my veg section. I was so relieved when I fired it up and the temps stayed about 5 degrees cooler. Such a simple fix for an awful problem.

I have seen many portable AC units that don't require venting to the outdoors. I've even considered them, but I think this 3rd remodel will do the trick. I would put "Portable Air Conditioner" into your favorite search engine and see what comes up. I think they start at about $225.

Yes 95 is an issue and yes it will affect growth. Of course there are many plants that do just fine outdoors at 95, it happens all the time. I've even heard of people doing grows in 105 degrees and getting a pretty good yield. Facts are however, both cold and hot will slow down growth, sometimes dramatically. Remember your leaf temps, that's what's important. It would be best if you could get a laser thermometer. I paid $50 odd for mine, but I've seen them as low as $25 plus shipping if any. It is good to have one just to see all the hot spots on your canopy. I was surprised at the difference in mine. You want to keep the leaves under 80 for optimum growth. If you don't have a laser thermometer, this means that the air temp around the canopy should be no more than 83. Will plants produce weed at temps above 83? Of course. Will it be optimum yield? Of course not.

So, don't go above 105.
Opie Yutts Reviewed by Opie Yutts on . Opie Yutts I need your help friend "Ah, aeroponics. Wise choice. Not exactly for beginners, but it should be no problem if you have a couple smarts. Done correctly, this set up is one of the highest yielders. Let me clarify what I meant about little water. In my opinion the best way to superfast growth and healthy plants is to supply the roots with as much oxygen as possible. This means that no matter what your setup, soil, soilless, hydro or whatever, you do not want your roots sitting in water. MJ is not a marsh or pond Rating: 5
