600w hps heat problems + a light cycle question
first of all i wanna say HI EVERYONE! new grower here! or well.. ive done one crop, blueberry, it went really nice except i had some problems with mites
anyways im off with my new one and ive discovered that i MIGHT have heat problems..
first of all im using a 600w hps wich is 1m (3,2 ft or smthn) over some 4 days old seedlings now to get rid of the heat i got a 100øm fan to blow directly at and sort of under the hps to get rid of the worst heat. im taking the temp, by putting the temp messure next to the pots (wich are really small) so its right down by the plants basicly, in the "sun" baking, and its reading 28-29 C.
my question is: Beacause its "in the sun" will it read hotter then it rly is because of the wind thats blowing at the HPS? or is that the correct reading?
sorry if my english is crap im from a diff. countryimp:
oh yea and i got another small question, i saw this post (in this forum)
