[uksecretsensi]

How's everyone's girls doin on this cold morning. My temps dropped by 8c in the night. Time for some radiators on me thinks.

 

[Saerimmner]

Morning all

 

[dura72]

just waiting till about 11am then gonna check on my loft grow, the temps were way too low, sitting around 21 or 22c at best so i threw an old quilt over the chamber roof and stuck a little electric blow heater timed for 15 mins every 4 hours to see if it helps. gave them 2 days so i'll get them checked and adjust to suit, with any luck that'll be it sorted. plants look fine though but its eventually gonna affect yeild/nute uptake if it aint sorted.
oh and morning mutants.

 

[uksecretsensi]

Yep not just me with temp issues mine av been at 25 in light 15 in dark. Time for the gas bill to rise. Paying for all this electric now the gas on top. Not happy.

So had to turn my hood fan off an run my extract fan at snail pace......I'm installing a tube heater an a programmable room thermostat today should sort it had some freezing night temps aswell.....

If you could get your grow space to a exact temp day an night what would you lot swing for?

I don't even know what my night temps are to be honest mate, about 15C should be the lowest you want to go.

My day temps are around 25c, 30c is about the ceiling. Over that and you'll start to get problems.

mines a 5 stage which filter more but 3 is fine

"Household reverse osmosis units use a lot of water because they have low back pressure. As a result, they recover only 5 to 15 percent of the water entering the system. The remainder is discharged as waste water. Because waste water carries with it the rejected contaminants, methods to recover this water are not practical for household systems. Wastewater is typically connected to the house drains and will add to the load on the household septic system. An RO unit delivering 5 gallons of treated water per day may discharge anywhere between 20 and 90 gallons of waste water per day"

Shit Jimmy, I didn't think they were that inefficient. If that's the case I'll be sticking with the Brita (or find a commercial size carbon filter) for a few years yet, I can't afford to be paying for all that wasted water.

My thermometer has the max an min temp thing so can check what temps have been in the night, other day was down to 15C probs get lower if it goes any colder outside.
what i ment mate is with the proggramable thermostat i should be able to get temps near enough exactly what i want day an night, i reckon im gunna shoot for 24C day time was just night i was wonderin what would be best, i remember with the g13 temps wer like 17c most of time an i got some nice purp comin through but dont wanna go lowish if it effects yield an what not plus im sure my de-humidifier doesnt run once below a certain temp need to check really...

I'm not sure what you mean mate, does this thermostat turn your kit on and off according to what the temp is?

 

[drgrowshit]

got some breeders boutique threw the door thanks to that man lol dont want to tell the strains coz youz will go gren eyed lol,thanks again

If I could I would just get it in a range where there was a 20degrees drop between night and day temps. All fruit bearing plants produce superior quality fruit with a large swing in day to night temps.
