All I can tell you is for decades I have grown in coastal area where it is not uncommon for there to be weeks of 100% humidity (quite literally).. Life goes on.. I've NEVER paid humidity any mind EXCEPT at dry and cure, and of course the last few weeks of any harvest, even low humidity desert...

72 hours? I have had seeds that took well over a week to sprout.. it happens..

No.. leave it alone.. water it with clear water the next few times and let her recover.. you've done enough already (delivered with a smile and a grin) , let her recover.

I keep my plants as healthy and happy and productive as I can until the very sad moment I harvest them. I have become one of those who wont (because I have a choice) smoke anyone else's grass but my own because my peak harvesting times and whole plant curing process is just really just the...

I'd be afraid of it rooting into the cotton and having complications as a result. Maybe getting pinched off as it outgrows..

You are still feeding them veg ferts (N) ya? Checking PH?

If people feel they want to feed the soil a bit, it wont hurt.. but dig this.. If you really think you are feeding microbes, then a VERY SMALL AMOUNT will do it.. Molasses is VERY acidic.. I have seen people destroy their crops towards the end not compensating for this fact. If you use it...

I wouldn't stress it when it climbs.. Growing on the coast where we run 75-80 more than not.. and it can go much higher.. Just kick up the ventilation towards the end and inspect daily for any rot (not that you will, just always check in high humidity) the last few weeks.

Using a cutting and flowering with CFL (add 2 weeks for if it is from seed), once rooted, I go about a month of near daily training. Keep em about 8 inches tall max in 1 to 2 gallon pots, flower em. 2-3 ounces average. A bit more and a bit quicker under small HID/HPS

Room temp is fine..

No, as QUiz said, you can flower under the Veg spectrum (for lack of a better description).. the plant triggers flowering because of it's daylight cycle regardless of what light you use. If you managed to grow something under a flashlight, it would still flower if you put it;'s time at 12 12 or...

Oh, you mean using HPS the last few weeks on a CFL grow.. you'll be fine.. I would maybe introduce it to them from the highest distance you can though at first.. give them a day or two to adjust.. and they will, and they will benefit.. It won't shock them, but you CAN burn them and stress them...

Unless you need to speed things by a few days, just cut the fucker (any angle is fine, sharp scissors if you have em) drop it in water, set it in AMBIENT light (I usually put mine on an inside kitchen counter by day, and run a little cfl far away (NEVER DIRECT LIGHT THIS WAY) for two weeks...

If you mean will dropping some extra 'even lower' light in will help, certainly it will. Also would afford you the opportunity to use some 5000k or 6500k bulbs to add a bit of blue in there, which never hurts the greenery.

Ok, here is a question for the academics.. If lumens don't add up.. How come virtually every multi bulb fixture in existence uses the lumen rating from the output of multiple bulbs? From commercial to industrial lighting, multi bulb fixtures use additive lumen ratings. For example, you...

For whatever it is worth, and maybe I just didn't read right.. BUT.. you can avoid a LOT of stretch by keeping your T-5 going until you see actual flower development (stretch is over) and THEN switch to HPS and watch them go BAM.. Your T5 will keep stretch to a minimum (get it as close as it...

My bad,., I see everyone is pretty much saying the same thing.. I should of read before I posted.. sorry.

You said honest opinions.. Have you ever grown a plant? You just don't need all that 'stuff'. I mean it is fine if you want to, and can afford to squander resources.. but a good gardener will be able to max out their plants in that space under that light using a simple all in one fert like...

Bugs in the soil? Start with a little h20 (about a half cup 3%) to a gallon of water will not only kill most living things and their eggs in the soil, but plants like an occasional H@0 dose as it helps oxygenate down in the roots and it causes the plant to uptake nutrients quicker for a time...

For the next few weeks, you don't need anything more than a 25 watt 6500k cfl on each of them.. that will cut down on heat and be much more efficient.. buy you some time to figure things out. WAY to early to be having that kind of light on seed that is barely breaking dirt. just one thought...
