Thanx i stressed the hell out of them. Had a brain fart and my room was up to like 85 and 90s. I have a temp gauge for in/outdoors and had the main display/indoor under the palnt. Not thinking that it would give it shade and it been in the 75s. Well too the outdoor more and put it up by the top of the plant and it was in the 90s. OOOOOPS
Ah sucky, it's odd though man, my plants sit at 75ish with the lights off and 84-88 with the lights on. Yet they are doing fricken awesome, they get plenty of fresh air with awesome circulation, but i just can't seem to get the temps down with anything short of an AC, which i will need to get before summer. So ya, I feel yer pain hehe

The problem looks like nutrient water on the leaves. I noticed in the larger pictures there was some burn look on lower leaves possibly from the cfl bulbs being too close. I know it is hard to believe but touching a cfl is very likely to burn the leaf. If you're not spraying, I don't know. But don't start spraying in flower.....I'd cry.

I had to put a fan in the attic to bring some cool air down and then had that fan blowing in the room. Im glad the attic opeing is right above the room

Try to keep the heat down a little, but you have good air movement, and that makes a big difference.

I usually hang a thermo from a link chain.....of course it has to be COMPLETELY sealed and secure, meaning all wires policed, no chance of shorts or fire....but this allows the thermo to be lifted or lowered to the height of the canopy. ONLY DO THIS IF YOU CAN DO IT SAFE.

I have also setup thermos and humidies on a board....again secure and safe.....then set up 3 or 4 mounting spots up the wall. When the plants hit spot 2....move it up to spot 3.

Just a couple ideas I have tried before.

That being said....you should be fine. MJ is hardy, and your plants specifically look very durable. Try not to let it happen too often, but you will be fine.

Just imagine a plant in a desolate outdoor location, full sun at the peak of summer. 90 is not too bad.
Thanx ill keep that in mind

Hey im trying to build a vent for the smell. Would a 65ish cfm fan work for my 8 Sq ft room?

My PH is 6.5 I think one or twice it went down to 6.0, thats ok right?
You are flirting with problems if your pH drops below 6.5 and 6.0 is not good.


Magnesium gets locked out of soil growing at pH levels of 2.0-6.4
Calcium gets locked out of soil growing at pH levels of 2.0- 6.4

When you dropped below 6.5 your plants were becoming deficient in Magnesium and Calcium due to lockout.

So has anybody heard of superthrive?I got some today beacuse i heard it good for plants how got stressed out but cant use it during flowering becuase it makes the buds not as compact. But im growing cfl so they wont be anyway. Today is 3 week into flowering and i start to see my crystals lastnight :0 So im thinking about getting a duct fan that 250 cfm for the smell if it gets to bad.Is the 250 cfm going to be enough?

Ya man, that stuff rules! I have Thrive Alive which is almost the same thing, but ya I contribute my plants doing so well solely on that Thrive Alive B1 additive! I never used the full strength though, don't think it would have hurt thought, only used about 1/2 strength

SuperThrive is OK, it is good for stressed plants and some people like it when cloning, but it is not a miracle in a bottle. The reason you don't want to use it in flower is the same reason people who grow ornamental plants love it. It slows down the flowering process making flowers last longer. With cannabis that means you extend the length/time of your flowering period with little to nothing to show for it.
