You gonna need alot bigger fan than that for the 600 my friend.The extraction fan i mean, But thats the way to cool the bulb.It will keep the hot air from just sitting around creating hot spots.Id get a hood for the 600 thats has a tap to hook a duct like a 4inch are 6inch extraction duct to it.Your plants are loving that 600 but your gonna have to get that intake and extraction down are your never gonna mantain desired temp.Makes me wanna fire up another 600 but i like 400s for that reason they are alot easier to maintain desired temp for ME..

IF your gonna try it that way heres a thought,get another 10inch and screw it to the other side and hook a duct to it and vent outside the flowering space.I dont think it will be enough but just something to play around with as im always tinkering............tink, tink.

i did get the vent prob fixed...my ghetto rig is keppin the temps perfect..i can put my hand 6 inches from the light without discomfort....i guess adding the little box fan and blowing across the bulb to the inline fan worked......so now i just gotta figure out whats going on with the plants...i did take five cuttings today and planted them...i used rootone and just a little superthrive........could my ph b too low and thats why they are getting the lime tint?...im stumped

There should be no mag are any def.at this stage your plants are nowhere big are have been growing long enough to use up all the nutes.Unless its locked out from the ph being to low are high.Have you done anything different than what you have been doing??As far as watering and nutes???Did it just happen overnight ?Your not dumping cold air from the attic in there are you?? Got a pic???Rethink it thru on what youve done different il be thinking.

uhhhhhhhh, cold air from the attic? um....yeah, is that a bad thing? that how i've been keeping temps balanced...i have a fan blowing cool air in and the vent fan taking hot air out......my ph is about 6.0....i just ordered a test kit for the soil and nutes....so, what ur sayin is i shouldnt b shooting cold air in?.....that means i really gotta get this venting figured out

Are all the strains looking like the second pic?What im talking about is a major difference from your attic temp to the grow area temp?What was the low temp in there for last few days?The grow area ?The first 1 looks like it got cold are overwatered.The one with the discoloration What strain is it the mata?Reason being my JF dont like cool nights but the other strains i have dont seem to mind it.Did you use your own compost i have forgotten what your using?? And if you left the light close it can bleach the leaves and turn em a little yellow looking its really hard to see it,but if does look like mag.def.Did you check your PH of the soil b4 using it?

the second pic is the durga...thats the only one that has those leaves...the low temp doesnt go under 70...the one bleached olooking one was a little too close to the light...that was a couple days ago...that one is starting to get the green back to it....i dont know what the soil ph is...never had a prob outoors with it...the rain water that the outdoor plants got was about 6.1 wich is the same as my tap water..which is well water that is drinkable from the tap...no softener...the temps other than the other day stay between 70 to 78 ...the light stays on 24...the cool air i blow in from the attic warms up before it hits the plants...ive thouroughly checked the temps from the fan to the room..at night the fan is off and my ghetto system keeps it good...actually the only times i blow air in is if its over 50 outside...i usually just leave the door to the room open and the box fan on the one side of my light pulls it in

Ok i think it was just them adjusting to the light.Keep the light at 2ft from em i didnt know if you were 18/6 are 24 thats why i ask for the low.Do you have a good PH an PPM meter?When dealing with diff. strains you got to remeber there origin or where they were produced and climate as nowadays with the availibility of strains it can get hard for them being grown under different conditions,Hope that makes sense still on my first cup.Damn bye the the way you were acting i thought we had some major problems and the hole grow was in jepardy.LOL
