Yeah this cold weather snap has slowed them slightly. I need to go get a couple of timers so I’m only exhausting 15 mins an hour and fans are 15 mins intervals. That should fix it for now I’ll throw the hps in the big tent during winter
In flower my dehumidifier will catch 2 litres of water in a 24 hour period well summer run soil grow. So I think your right they pump out the moisture so you would be sweet but only if your humidity is in a good spot
Yea after you were explainin awhile back about how plants uptake calcium an a few other things i was foliar feedin cal nitrate up until 3-4 weeks of flower probs would of stopd earlier to foliar potassium but i never got round to gettin any. Its not ideal to be sprayin anything on plants late flowerin but as long as it wont affect the final bud quality i dont see why not.
Just thought it was common practice dont really wanna be spraying shit on your buds through flower
Humidity isn’t the problem. It’s temperature and stagnant air.
Yeah well thats how i treat all defficiencys really first check is ph and ec for lockouts.. but i never really have any issues other than goin purple in winter i also get less yield in winter... i wonder why
10-15 years ago only hippies and crazy people foliar fed at all. The art is evolving constantly. I believe @Saffasteve foliar feeds outdoor most the way through flower with his special brew.
Im all for foliar just thought i was recommended past the 3-4 week mark
I’d put money that your rootzone temps are falling below 20c at some stageYeah well thats how i treat all defficiencys really first check is ph and ec for lockouts.. but i never really have any issues other than goin purple in winter i also get less yield in winter... i wonder why
Id put money on it to. I flower during the day even in winter to make use of my solar. May flower during night next crop too see how it goes and see how the power bill goes to
It’s mostly the rootzone temps. Could also try some heat mats. Relatively cheap to run and warm the rootzone directly
I was thinking about wrapping heat mats around a pots to see if I could pull a winter grow of in a small greenhouse, for seeds. Do think it would work?
Would need some big heat mats to do anything to 50l pots
i may even invest in a fishtank heater for the rez aswell atleast give em warm water
Yeah. It’s only the frost that’ll kill it.
Keeping your Rez around 22ish also means more dissolved oxygen, heat mats mostly help with stopping the cold rising up. If your in a tent grab an electric blanket and throw it underneath between the tent and the floor.Would need some big heat mats to do anything to 50l pots
Sweet
Nah in a room if i flower through the night time ill be set for temps. Its just balancing wether the added yield from having better room temps will offset the added elctricity bill i may even flower from 12 at night till mid day
I've never been big on foliar outdoors ( old habits hard to change ) but I see Saffa like reza said with awesome results when doing foliar it's definitely something I need to make more of an effort next season doing.
