It's not just heat from the light.... It's the ambient temperature. We regularly get to 110°F in the heat of the summer... Such that it becomes impractical to try to keep the entire house cooled (not to mention EXPENSIVE!). We'll be over 90° by the middle of May. Installing a window AC unit on the back porch is not an option. I'd LOVE to be able to keep the area under 85°, but I'll be doing real good to stay under 95°.

Heat, I KNOW, is going to be a problem, but I imagine there is some strain of genetics that attempts to compensate for this (somewhat). So now, it's just a matter of finding something that someone else in the "deep south" has had relative success with. uhh.. Other than headache brown!

None of the seed banks tell anything about resistances and such. I hoped you may have had some experience with it. I may have to start another thread in regard to this.

Thanks though.
GrowingInGeorgia Reviewed by GrowingInGeorgia on . I seem to do better at killing than growing - HELP PLEASE! I'm not a farmer and I can't even spell horticulturist right (Spell checker can though!;)) The absolute best thing I have ever grown is a rock garden and know nothing about caring for a plant properly.... so of course I'm going to have problems. Hell, as far back as I care to remember even lawn care is at best a spectator sport. But, I got a 400w MH light and built a grow room loosely following the construction steps as shown on the "I Grow Chronic" DVD - sans hydroponic system, co2 etc... Rating: 5
