Hot temps=low yeild?

[MaryJane's Spidey420]

hello,

yes you can lst at week seven, you can top it, super crop it or do what ever you like. you can also flower it it you would like, but if you have the space i would let it get bigger. foliar spray is fine up until a couple weeks of flower, then it can rot your buds. are you using nutes in your foliar spray? or just straight water? are you nuteing them at all?

hope this helps a lil

YES, I am using water with a slightly diluted nute solution as to not burn the leaves..

so if heat is not an issue, and fresh air solves the heat issue, then at what point does the heat become a problem. it has to some time regardless of airflow, probably between 90-100 for some strains and probably higher for others, obviously, otherwise the outdoor crops wouldnt grow at all in the late summer.

i am not necessarily disagreeing with you my girls, i feel that you are right to a point, but only to a point. but then again, your credential speak for themselves. anyways, just trying to keep the topic going.

heat isnt a issue if you got air circulating because it could be hot indoor and outdoor, but theres air movement and thats why plants grow where ever as long as its changed with new air

What kind of light are you using?
You can make your own cooltube for pretty cheap. There's tutorials in the DIY area or google "home made cooltube".
It's the best help for high temps in small areas IMHO.

I AM currently Using a 400W convertable MH/HPS light, MH at the moment for veg, to go along with about four other 60W bright white cfls, and a double flourescent bulb running vertically on the side to maximize the light spectrum.. This cool tube sounds very interesting! ill have to check it out, thnx!

so to be extreme to help explain my point....so if it is 175 degrees f. a plant will still grow if the air is moving alot?

no there is a point in which a plant cannot grow regardless of air circulation

i have a 400w hps if i put a thermostate infront of my plant the heat from the light gets it to about 100 up to 120
the room itself is 90

The Violator kush I am growing has been in the mid 90's for 2 months and is just as fat as the last one. Water the weed and watch it grow. Good airflow and plenty of fresh air.

 

[oh really???]

I had a 2x2x6 cabinet running a 400hps through a cooltube with temps were at 90 for more than a year. My plants seemed to tell me that they were stressed due to the air temperature . you know leaf misconfiguration. I moved and setup in a small room and have noticed a dramatic difference. The temps are at 80-85 on a hot day but the air circulation is much more efficient. The leaves are flat and smooth and the growth seems effortless. I'm running the same plants so i know the difference.

. . . i used to believe that temps did not matter as long as the plants had enough water and fan flutter. But now I know that it is the amount of FRESH air flow, so as to give the plant enough CO2. We all know that if your pumping CO2 you can have higher temps. So If you can exchange one room change per five minutes. (https://www.rollitup.org/grow-room-design-setup/105781-how-much-air-exchange-do-2.html) then you're alright.

I have to say, these plants (i will upload a pic) have been under about a constant 85° since they started and i will keep them there until they flower. I love this because people get so specific with this wonderful plant, also known as a WEED. It will grow under just about ANY situation, but there are definitely prime temps and other factors to get the best yield. I keep returning to the fact that this plant comes from areas in the world that don't go below 80°, if even below 90° on a consistent basis and still do just fine. I am by far no expert- this is my first time so I will see what happens.
My theory, if you care, is that you give them enough fresh air from somewhere else, clean water with appropriate nutrients, good light, and lots of love and they will in turn reward you with flowers of a great quality.
But again, thats just my humble opinion...

someone please answer this question
or at least if the temp is 120 if that narrows it down alittle

Roast at 175 for 15-20 minutes an ounce.
