That doesn't seem to cold to me.
If I were you, I'd buy a blue or purple strain. Then run your lights during the day. The cooler temps at night (with the wilghts off) should get you all the colors.

I'll take trade your 68F for my 104F weather any day :) Lower temps means you can add more lights ^_^ If you don't buy a heater I would actually run your lights during the night and keep the lights off during the day to balance it out a little bit. 70F is a bit cold for cannabis. The lights will probably raise your temps to decent levels though.

Well temps outside hit 105 outside today. Just about killed all the plants outside. Temps inside the bin hit 95F! Had the a/c on all day and still having trouble keeping the ambient temp in my room below 86F :( They showed signs of heat stress so I watered them today(was going to water tomorrow) with 1/2 a tsp of 1-3-2 which is twice as much as I usually do, to try and combat which is hopefully a deficiency and not a ph issue, along with a tsp of molasses. Turned the lights off at 4:45PM. They usually go off at 7pm, but I can't have the temps be 95F. I might just switch the lights to be on during the night and off during the day, but I'm not quite sure if I should just go ahead and switch it or slowly switch it. No idea how I should slowly switch the light on hours though. It's supposed to be 98F tuesday with a 20% chance of rain for the next 3 days. Highs for sunday and monday are 103 and 104F...FML

For what its worth my closet hit 108 a couple weeks ago. But my plants kept on truckin. Lol only reason it was that high was because the door was shut all day. Usually I keep it open for fresh air. 86 is about as high as I'd wanna see in there. Although it used to hit 90+ before my homemade cooltube

Yea normally they're only 5-7 degrees higher than the ambient temp, which they are. But the ambient temp is 86F lol, I'm roasting.

Not much has been happening. Temps hit 107 yesterday, but it rained in the afternoon/this morning. So far it's only 91F right now. High is supposed to be 95 :)

Watered the girls yesterday. I was looking at the micro nutes listed on Jack's Classic and it's only .005 Magnesium! I checked the Veg+Bloom stuff and it's 6% and 18% calcium. So I used that along with the molasses I use every watering. Depending on if that solves my problems or not I may just use that occasionally, if it doesn't I'll look into top dressing the pot with some lime. Next grow since I'll be going organic, I'll be adding lime to my mix.

Taking pics really didn't occur to me and it was pretty damn hot so I didn't want to bother really. Buds on the Blue Mammoth as starting to thicken out. The Northern Lights has slowed down it's stretching a good bit. I've got maybe 4-5 tops that are super long, but everything else is pretty slow.

Took off about 5-7 leaves total from both plants. Didn't prune or anything, I just very lightly pulled on the leaf and they came off without any resistance. I've got one leaf that is actually wrinkled and black/brown on the Northern Lights. Looks exactly how it would if it was super dry, expect it's still firmly attached and black/brown. Nothing of the sort of the Blue Mammoth.

In unrelated news I found a way to play Final Fantasy 11 for free, on a private server, with my ps3 controller :)

Oh I'm trying to see how much fertilizer I can use until I get a nute burn. I think I have a deficiency of some sort and it will be interesting to see how far I can push the nutes. More=better until you start burning it right?

I'll take pics in a day or 2. Whenever the girls need to be watered. Trying my best not to mess with them at all.

I think it would be safe to try upping dosage little by little each watering to try if you want.

Hey, where you been at?? Have any pics of the girls?? My skunk has lost pretty much all fan leaves except one. Going to have to have a different plan for flowering next time around.

Picture time ^_^.

Well I've been watering with the veg+bloom rather than the jack's because I noticed Jack's has almost no micronutes, while the veg+bloom has 18% calcium and 6% magnesium over the lack of calcium in the jack's and the .05% of mg. Have been adding 1 tablespoon of molasses per watering and have been watering about every 2 days. Next watering(tomorrow probably) I'll use the Fish blend at 1.5 oz instead of the 1 that's recommended.

Added some more soil to the top of the pot because I realized when I water a little bit of soil drained out and the roots had started to show. Pulled off about 2-3 leaves at the bottom per plant. Temps haven't gone above 86 and it's set to rain the rest of the week so we're going to have decently cool temps.

As you can see the girls are starting to get a little bit frosty. I've got about 6 weeks before the semester starts and 5 1/2 till I move in so it's a race. Worst case I could probably keep it at my roommates place for a few more days, but I don't want to leave it where I can't attend to it.

Oh right, the first pic is what happened a few days ago. Apparently a CFL lightly touched the top bud for a second or two. Not sure if it roasted it or not. Should I let it be or remove it?

They are looking so gooooood!!! :weed:

I would leave the burned bud...I did the same thing, left it, and it ended up filling out to the point of where I can't find the burn area anymore. It'll be a insignificant amount of burned bud when they swell up and get big.

I almost thought you completely destroyed the plants with under or over ferting since you weren't posting any updates, and was afraid to show us :lol:

Glad that's not the case! They really look fantastic.
