Dog Days of Summer - Heat & Hermies
First post, been trolling on the board for about three weeks..lots of good info going around...kudos...i'm down south usa, it's naturally hot..growing in a closet of 5x5 usable space with a ten foot ceiling...i have 14 plants, 4 moms, 10 fully rooted clones under a 600w mh w/ a bunch of cfl's (6-10) 19-27 w, 5000-5500k lit (will be removed when i take cuttings)...i do not have any exhaust going...i should have been on this board b4 i received my plants...it's super hot between 94-100, up to 110-115 with door closed for half the day, CO2 enrichment (yeast/sugar) @ 1000-1100 ppm after two hours with the doors shut (that's when the temp rises)..closet door is open at this time, around 4 pm central and its 96 at the canopy level..this enviroment has persisted for three weeks and i will probably remain for 7-10 days, will purchase a portable air cooler in hopes of getting the temps down 10-15 degrees..
the plants have gone thru the stress of transplanting, but i know they are getting hammered by the heat...getting to the point however...
1. Am I doomed to having hermies?
2. When (how soon) will they show after i cut the lights back?
3. When i take my cuttings (i plan on having them in the right enviroment), are they doomed?
the four mothers are NL, skunk #1, white rhino, and kali mist, unlabeled, but assured to have one of each..the clones are unlabeled, one of the four...
(rambling)
i have plenty of room in the house, but i also run a business out of here..so using one of the forward rooms is out of the question at least for the first ninety days..
i have a seperate home that's empty (tons of space, close to me), but i'm just getting back into growing and i want to keep my plants close until i get the green thumb back and i dont know the neighbors, etc., etc....its a pretty safe grow where i am
i'm mechanically inept so no drilling holes in the wall for me...i will get the seperate house all ready before i move the grow there, just get someone in to fix up the rooms like they should be (exhaust, scrubbers, etc.)...
(/rambling)
someone who has experience with high veg temperaure please chime in...either for peace of mind or a swift kick in the rear for action...
thanks, i look forward to all helpBrothers Darkness Reviewed by Brothers Darkness on .
