ye i feed on every watering.im feeding them half strenth,thats only thing i dont have is a humidity tester but like i say it dont look like im burnin the plant,ive got a 600watt hps about 18 inch off top of the plant

Humidity is one of the elements that needs to be dialed in properly for great yields (along with temps, as they interact)

You could try raising the light another 4 inches to see if the stress goes away?

Got any pic's???

I don't do yield guesses, there are to many variables. But properly grown with everything dialed in right it should give you a QP

the dialing in part is up to you, need to know your humidity !!!

for your 31 temp you want a humidity of 50%

but you also need to find a way to get the temps down before flowering, you will want to be in the low 20's and at that point you will want your humidity in the low 30's

anything else will stunt your yield

for real man.SHIT i havnt a clue how im guna get the temp down to the low 20"s...ive got a 4inch extractor in their with 4inch carbon filter taking air out the tent..ive also got a 12inch and 16inch oscalating fans in their..what else can i do to take temp down lol? any ideas

You can go the other way which would be to add CO2, if done right those temps would be ok

i havnt got a clue when it comes to c02 to be honest lol,but i have got a 2litre bottle in there with some c02 i made lol,i just shake it up now and again to make it produce more c02,i made it with sugar and activated yeast haha

probly a bad idea but its a cheap why to addin c02 lol

yeah that home made won't cut it for those temps during flower cause you have to seal the cabinet/closet and stop air extraction for it to work properly and the right setup is not cheap

ye its quite expensive the c02 setup..how else could i get temp down?i will keep the home made c02 in their for now but the extractor stays on constant so like you say the plants will hardly be using the c02

You could add an air conditioner to the room and lower the temp of the ambient air outside the garden, unfortunately there are not a lot of options

but you can also just finish it out and accept that the yield will be less

how much do you think a cool shade/cool tube would take the temp down?if i get one of them the heat will be going straight from the light out of my tent

You could try 24 hour turbo yeast from a brew shop, it will covert 1 pound of sugar into 2 pounds of Co2 in 24 hours in a 2L bottle, It's a cheap way to get a load of Co2 without equipment. about 7-12 times more Co2 output than normal yeast :-)

My (sativa) plants just started to get there first true leaves today and are already 3 inches tall and the stems look a little weak, I have a 400w hps about 2 feet from the tops of the plants. So is there any way that they could be strecting or are they just meant to be like this because of the strain. :leaf:

Rollitup and smoke onnn :leaf:

ok so far i am really good at wasting lots of money killing plants..ph, nute burn, temps, etc..this time i am trying to make it as easiest on me as possible. this is my plan. i want to grow in coco, hand water, and just use flora nova grow for veg, the flora nova bloom for flower...has anybody had sucess with this setup, and what things should i look out for and any recommended watering/feeding schedules are helpful..i'm ready to pull my hair out at this point as i can't afford to keep killing things...also i am using a 4.5' x 4.5' tent with a 600w mh conversion grow, and 600 hps bloom...please help!!!
