Your not the only one...I also had to switch to grow at night, during the winter is the opposite.

Even with AC and a bajilion fans my place gets hot, and it's been a hot summer here.

10 degrees above normal..

I'm not growing in the summer anymore after this year...unless it's outside. I'll just double my winter output and save enough to last me all summer.

Global warming sucks....
 
Dude I grow outside and I'm feelin it too. Try having to water plants in 5 gal pots 2-3 times a day by hand. Where is my drip system!
 
yea its so hot here too.. today it got over 110 degrees! i grow outside and one of my plants completely burned except the top 2 fan leaves... i water once a day... my tomato plant was watered last night and today it was wilted like it had been dead for a few days....but its making all of my plants grow like they've hit a growth spurt...so this heat is good for something at least!!
 
Having 100+ here in central CA........got 4 box fans and misting system going full bore on patio grow... I'm out in the open, but got 40% shade cloth standing by in case it gets too much....Good luck & good grow.......BB

I live in the Colorado...

I've been to Garberville, Myers Flat, Willows Creek ( Emerald Triangle) etc and it gets hot...along the coast like Eureka, Crescent City or Coos Bay it's nice and cool..but once you go inland it gets as hot as it does here in the summer...

Not sure what part of NorCal you're talking about, Redding can get to 116/118 and that's about as far north as it gets in Cali.
I'm in Stockton, the northern end of the San Joaquin valley, and we are getting our asses fried as I post! I'm on the patio deck 6 hours a day during this heat wave. Next Tues. it's supposed to break, so we cook for another 72 hours. My girls can take it!!
Good luck & good grow.......BB
 
I live in So Cal and it has been so hot in the Valley :fire:

I'm running my lights at night. They come on at 9PM off at 9AM.

Even at 110 degrees yesterday my grow box did not get over 81 degrees. It's in my garage.

That's good, because I will start my next batch in the first week of August :joint:
