What you use for heat in winter?

i have a small space heater and a vent i added in the heating duct running through my room.plus it dosent get colder than 65 down there with out heat with temps at 0 outside.there below the freeze line and have dirt floor with some old carpet down for insulated layed between dirt froor and my grow bags.and in the summer it stays pretty cool down there too.

plus the 1000 watt hps and 400 heat the 10x9 rm.with out additional heating during the light hrs.
only use the heating during the off hrs unless realy cold out.been trying to keep the day temp and the night temps as close as possible.been able to keep the temps within 5 degrees.read some study's on the effect of temps on yield.so been trying to maintain a temp of 75.i was letting the temps dip to 65 at night with lights off.i'll know if see any differences in yields on this 2 nd batch coming up here in about 5 weeks.

Well seeing as how this is the place for pictures and I just took some more.
Clone is in a ghetto rigged humidity dome. It is doing alright though. It still has it's color and smells like grape fruit and skunk. It is wilted over, but I am pretty sure that is normal and it might bounce back in a day or two. It looks very much alive and I have a feeling it will pull through. Cheers.

all the concrete does is suck the warmth out the pots.i love my dirt flor dont have to worry about spills and runn off all soakes into the ground.

yeah, just recently, my humidity was TOOO LOW... so.. i dumped about 10 gallons of water on the floor =) that solved it, and my temps do not swing like my buddies garage does... it stays relatively close to outside temps, WICH IS GREAT HERE.... VERY manageable right near the beach boiiiiiieeee (flava flav voice)

i just have to deal with mites.. so i spray like they were outside plants weekly to harvest and that works out great

yes best to keep em off the concrete raise em off the floor with a platform made of wood, or something besides just the concrete

Thank you!

had a few girls that changed color on me now..

wish i could raise mine.and build a platform.but have limited height of 5'6".the carpet on the dirt floor isn't too bad.thought about grabbing some pallets and putting them down then some plywood on top.at least get them up a bit and not loose much height.

exactly even a piece of ply-board/ plywood on the concrete will help and its only about 1/2 " lol

concrete will suck the heat out of the pots resulting in slower growth.

Nice. I got a 30X jewelers loupe and a little more mag would be nice. It was only 5 bucks for two and it works so I can't complain

I want/need one too, where did you get it so cheap ? how many times must it zoom to be able to see?

I need more reputation! You have given out too much Reputation in the last 24 hours, try again later.

just enough so you can see the tips of the trichomes

 

[perkele]

and how much is enough ?

 

[lime73]

and how much is enough ?

magnify glass will work...or a camera with macro function..or the loupe .....anything is better than the eye.

my scope is 60-100x but even 30x is good enough

 

[doc111]

and how much is enough ?

Radio Shack sells pocket microscopes for like $12 that are 60-100x. A lot of people have trouble using them, but once you get used to them it's no problem.
