I would suggest that you get one with a air cooled hood. I didn't get the air cooled hood and I wish I had of

I am using the sun system 2 MH/HPS switchable, no glass, stays pretty cool. If needed you can add glass, and a 4" exhaust fan too..
I have a 12" fan blowing cool air at it, and my 10" exhaust above it.

I'm sorry it's hard to say. How far is the light? You need to put them on some shoe boxes or ssomething.

You might not be able to drop the light but you can raise the plants! Just set them on something sturdy, like a good box or some bricks. Try to get the tops of the plants within a foot of your bulb. It really helps to blow a medium sized fan over the tops of the plants. It moves the air between the bulb and the plant and keeps it from getting too hot. Depending on how tall your plants are too you might want to cut all the little buds forming on the bottom third of your plant. The light wont reach them well, and removing them will let the top buds use all of the plants energy to get thicker and more resinous.

that did cross my mind , but im afraid to do that , situations is not perfect , the top of the plants is at best on 30c , few inches above its 33c , god knows how much is at the top of the closet , ive put duct fan at the level of reflector but it looks like it doesnt do much , reflector is about 60cm from the top of the plants and , thats like 25inches , i know it should be 12 inches max , but i think at that level its not going to be good for the plants , i have 3 computer fans at the bottom and one 250cfm fan at the top, but something is not working as it should cuz temps are maxed. I live in a building with high temps all the time , and 30c is common temp in my apartment so i use climate control to bring the temps under 30c at the top of the plants , for now its working but if they get litle bigger oh god shit is gonna hit the fan
 
i will get one more fan for the top of the plants , already had one but when i build last grow setup i was in need of fans for intake so i used the top one for bottom , will get it
 
So here are the reproductive structures that i'm noticing.

I'm calling them male but as it's only been 20 days into 18/6 I'm not sure if they actually are boys.

This shows the deficiency I'm having.

The back story for the plant is heat stress, over nute (organic) at a young age and a complete flushing of plain de-chlorinated water.

I started them back on nutrients last watering at half strength (GO line)

I need some feed back on this from anyone with early sexing experience, anyone who has over fertilized at a young age or anyone who has flushed, noticed a deficiency and been able to repair it.

Heck, I just need help right now.

Dats a male..... calyxes have pistils coming out immediately, and will only lose the pistils later on either from physical damage, or by the calyx becoming pollenated far into flowering. If it looks like those bananas its definitely male..

Males and probably the start of nute burn, start at 1/4 then bring it up. If it doesn't get worse good times, if it does, flush and start at a 1/4 then bring it back up.
 
Just pulled the two boys, now I have six plants left.

1x Lemon Cun*(Lemon Skunk, extreme sativa dominant, heat resistant, nutrient defeciency)

3x B-52 (extreme indica dominant, absolutely hates temps over 28, mild nutrient defeciency)

1x Kaya Gold (indica/sativa dominant 'sativa height, indica leaves and bushiness', absolutely hates temps over 28, no defeciency)

1x Jamaican Bud (extreme indica dominant, heat resistant, no defeciency)


I have two plants in my hospital, one stunted Lemon cun* and a B-52 that was nute burnt and I believe to be stunted.

If the plants pull through the hospital, I'm keeping them and propagating mini pot plants.

Hopefully the stunt is passed on to the clones cause if that's the case then OMG I'm gonna be the richest pot head I know from selling miniature bonsai pot plants once the law is completely stricken down and I can open a pot business.
 
What is the latest anyone has ever super cropped their plants. I have a sativa that is 1212 from seed and is about 7 weeks old. She has been topped twice and super cropped once and responded well to everything, but she keeps getting vertical. Would it be safe to super crop one more tim?
