Well here are the young ones, fresh out of 24hours of darkness. Went in at 8pm last night and lights came back on at 8pm tonight for the start of 12/12. Bud sites sure defined themselves over night but that that one sure is an ugly bitch. The other 3 look sexy but the one is hidious. I won't be dissapointed if that one is male. Actually that is not true, I would be dissapointed :)
Still battling with temps both low and high. Today with the lights off, low hit 67 and right now high is at 86. Not too happy with that but I think I have done all I can to control them. Who knows, perhaps I will stumble across the solution.
Comments/criticism is welcome as always.
One quick question.... These things need water tomorrow night when the lights come back on, should I give them bloom nutes right off the bat or perhaps wait til next watering and hit them with both nutes and molasses?
Peace All :leaf:

Man, those things are looking good. About your watering..... Have you read that article about "making it rain?" I've been trying that recently. Wonder what your thoughts would be?

Thanks Pelt. I have read about making it rain and have heard GREAT results from it. Check out the Journal by "Archminster" Link is below. You wanna see RESULTS from making it rain. I am not going to anything really out of the ordinary with this grow as it is my first. I am learning SO MUCH that I just want to get this under my belt, smoke my OWN and plan the next one.

Well......... Temps got OUT OF FUCKING CONTROL last night in the upper chamber. The lights came on at 8pm and by midnight the temps were around 95 degrees. I quickly moved them into the lower chamber (4 plants is cramped in there) and the temps in there remained around 80 through the night. I am not sure whether or not I am going to put any more effort into a solution for this because I am getting frustrated !!!!!!! I think I am just going to try and flower all 4 in the lower chamber where I have a handle on the temps and hope I don't run out of room !!! If there were an icon for pounding my fists on the table, I would be using that one :)
Peace

Thanks Arch. I know 95 is WAY TOO HIGH and I kinda paniced when I saw the thermometer ! Everything is OK at the moment, temps with the lights off this morning are 70 and I have the solution. After ALL THAT WORK on the cabinet, putting it into the closet etc... It was actually my wife that said "get rid of the cabinet, using the closet itself is just as stealthy as the cabinet IN the closet. DUH !!!! She is absolutely right so I am going to get rid of the cabinet and grow directly in the closet. This should EASILY allow me to control temps better. THere will a direct exhaust out the ceiling, un-obstructed, no bends in the duct and into the attic directly above the closet (where it is now). I will have A LOT more room and can adjust airflow MUCH better.
Hey did you happen to see the plants in post # 101? I think they are looking great with the exception of one ugly bitch :)
Peace Bro

And on the high side? Right now, my lights just came on and it's 82.4 degrees. I have the doors open and was fucking around changing lights etc.. so MY heat probably didn't help much. TOday I think the lowest it got was 67 with the lights out but that was with ABSOLUTELY no air movementt at all, all my fans, even exhaust was off. Whadda ya think about that ?
THanks for the help with all this Bro. I am so freaking paranoid, I just need to get right and relax :)
my high side temp is normally around 74-78 if i run my exaust fan at night with lights off the temps can drop to 50 or so in there, because the room i have them in is an unused room and i keep the window open for fresh and cool air...if i could keep my room dark enough and keep the kids out to have lights off during the day i would and it would make my light temps great on and off at around 70 and 60 per cycle..But as it is i've yet to have any problems yet, only with the extreemly high temps did i run into problems...Peace

Hey there are freaks of nature in nearly all walks of life.. might as well be some in mutant cannabis strains that make you melt into your couch. I smoked so much one night during a 4 pipe circle with 8 people that after half an hour I had a birds eye view of my body.. I was damn near hallucinating lol
