The Roadrunner Autos are directly under the Mh Bulb. They are short amd stocky as youd expect, maybe a lil shorter than normal with a more stockier build this would be because they are directly under the lights and the lights are pretty close to the girls about 20in I could get erm closer because heat is not an issue atm and I have 3 lights on in there 2mh and 1 hps over a haze thats from the last grow that was cut down weeks ago about 8weeks ago loool I told u there was serious problems that occured n she was stunted as fuck. But im giving her 1 more week not bothered with her shes using 1 light for herself n is jus stupid she dnt wanna do much looks like a 3-5oz to be but im not keepin no longer im flushing, started today wen I got back n will chop next week. Other than the haze which I hate but im forced to keep cuz I promised to not kill the autos are doing great and will be under the hps this time next week:D

Its alright I guess. Suns comin n staying out longer but its not all warm so im not fussed n I have my lights schedule from 7pm-1pm so during the day midday the times its hottest the lights r out pkus its cheaper electric by some considerable level. It is suppoused to be heatwave or hot for the next 5weeks though but im by coast n england nughts r never hot even if the day us boiling it cools by late evening so frim 7 I think latest lol. Im gonna be using extraction so should help. I dont even ave mt extraction on whilst I have 3lights in b temps under lights r no more than 26/27 I've set it up well. I have 6in extraction n when on with 3lights the temps are 24/25 so um expecting similar wen I add 4 lughts with 8" extraction. I use 5in intake only atm n use extraction on lughts out cuz girls dont use co2 then.

So Here is The Weekly update of How These Ladies Are doing.

I supercropped the fuck out of all but 2 of them but im gonna savage the 2 right now after this post:mad: The girls are doing an amazing job of keeping healthy and growing beautifully filling up and opening up really well. Due to plenty care and abuse the tops are pretty much all even, the christmas tree look is off history. From clone really as revegs they didnt even hold any form of the normal growth pattern which was the aim so all good there. 2 More Weeks Until I Get The Seperated Into Their own or 4 of them into their own 2.4 tent and leave their sisters behind lol.

I raised the lights 3 days ago because it was to close, the girls are getring too fat and light coverage wasnt get everywhere and as much as heat wasnt reading high some cupped slightly so for me n you all im sure know that meant lights up. I raised it higher than needed to initiate a stretch as ill be scrogging in 2 weeks I need em to start rising to the ceiling a bit now get some vertical growth so next week would be final cropping week most likely say by Friday would be last crop.

(Autos are the Very Last 2 Pictures)
The Autos (Roadrunners) have started the preflower rirual of spitting out their hairs which ave extended further since yesterday I took notice of em. Im giving them final mh light today and moving into the 1.2 tent when lights come back on and join the haze thats coming down in next 11days maybe 9 on a 12/12 regime and whwn the haze is out will then give em 14/8 light till the end.

That Mh Bulb seems to be doing a good job in there. Whats with the mess in there? Get cleaning boii. The auto's are really picking up, I love the variations in different pheno's you have , short and stucky as fuck and one more stretched. You'll get a better yield of the taller thats for sure, but being an auto, don't expect too much lol. I got auto's same age as your's, they turn 4 weeks tommorrow, northern and critical HOG, shortest is 19inches tall lol, however I did cheat and use a mix of sun and hps to achieve that height and the northern is well into budding now, critical about a week behind.
Your setup looks great, tell me more about your ventilation and how you expect to move all that heat out of that cab running so many watts in the upcoming summer? Are you using air cooled hoods? Size of intake/extraction, I do not care about how many oscillating or clip fans you have, just the cfm rating and size of your intake/extraction for each tent.
Oh, also, what inspired the name Mainey??? Are you from Maine and moved to the UK?
Lol, see ya.

In another location I have a grow running theres a auto afghan kush that got sun light and all grown under hps its over 2ft got a crazy stretch its in week 6 too crazy pheno type. Theres other autos in there too some lemon and the same as you have critical hog which is 4days older than my roadrinners here I cant remember the height but ill get pics when im down next week and have em up.

As for ventilation ill be using 8" but considering going for 10" extraction and using 6" intake at the moment im using 5" intake and 6" extraction the highest temp reading is 27.4 but they are doing a consistent 24.5-25.3 atm. Ill be using 8"in one tent actually rather thsn getting 2 costly 10s and ill manage the temps with the fans if it sky rockets with 4hps whilst in flower. Im confident the temps are going to be manageable. I have taken a look at some of your work from other site im sure of it as your name rang a bell soon as I saw it lol. Ill be posting constantly and if having issues im prepared to drop a light per tent but as iv tested with 3lights in 2.4 with all the girls n auto (more heat due to humidity) my higgest reading with the 6" which I git a new reading for was 33.8 the lights where also pretty low so that added to a build up for sure. Any advice would be appreciated so if u could keep up to date id appreciate it very much.

Im doing an auto run just waiting for the 5 seeds to crack. Im no fan of autos but excited about them this time round. The variety of girls is turning me on the smokes going to be lobely in the end, all the cocktails:D:cool:

Oh if I do use just the 8" extractions for both ill be using air cooled bulbs not hoods (space consuming couldnt get 4 in too tight) for sure or get heat spreaders. I have something similar in the kitchen I tested out and it worked wonders literally blocked the heat when put between the bulb and my hand and light still penetrated down, air cooled would be better though all lumens will get through jus reflector is stupid . Ill take a pic of 1 side of tent its jus gone off but I think the pic jus not giving it justice its pretty clean or 90% clean I recently took out waterproof floor and scrubbed it and swept tent floor and sprayed with pesticide n let dry with fans on. After last run with spidermite issie cleanliness and pest control is number 1 priority.
Mainey is my name lol well nickname im nit from maine lol.
Battery low so can't get flash amd lights off now.

Thanks. its 1st time using mh and I love em. They dont initiate much stretch from what iv seen iv also been cropping but streych is much less than hps and tighter nodes they are great for veg.

Well if heat is of no issue and your controlling it, good on you. I'm envious of your constant temp's, I have 3 240x120s each with 2 600w all in 12/12 which I run at nightime for cooler temps and am still struggling. I hit a max of 31C the other night but usually anywhere between 27.2 - 29.9C and I'll tell you it is a FUCKING hassle managing temps. I have an 8inch extraction in one (785m3/hour) with 5inch intake (365m3/hour) while the other have a 6inch extraction (725m3/hour) with 5inch TTfan intake's (230m3/hr). My plants are not stressing and some of my girls are as little as 8inches away from the bulb (due to 12/12 stretch) and doing great but as a personal preference, I'd prefer lower temps and I am just not achieving it.
ANyway, gues im gonna be pulling up a seat to watch how this goes, excellent start +rep

:eyesmoke:hey mainey have you entertained the thought of cool tubes.I have been using mine for a year and have found that thee heat is removed from my tent before it becomes a problem.Well that and they are easy to daisy chain them off one blower and they take up little room and give a fairly good light dispersment for there size.Also your plants cn be within several inches of them and don't burn....I'll be watching your grow and will get somepics. up as soon as I figure out how...LOL:bigjoint:

Yes mud I have thought about it. I think I answered that on mt previous post in reply to cflgroweranon that ill be using cool tube n not cool hood and with 4hps in cool tubes light distribution is not a problem at all in just 1 tent so yeh whilst in flower you will see them come out.
