What's up Trenton, I'm not having any heat issues at all, but I have my portable ac unit on while my lights are on. I did notice a while back before I got my ac that the 630w unit runs 12°F hotter than outside of my tent. When my light is on with the ac my tent stays between 74° and 78°F. When my lights are off my temp dips down to the mid 60's and humidity rises, so to knock out 2 birds with one stone I run a little space heater near my passive intake and temps go up to the low 70's and humidity stays around 48-50%.

Smart. I found a dimmable 630 on Alibaba.com that looks exactly like the growers choice one. Debating getting it or the 315s since I have a 4x8 tent but 3x6 tray lol. I just don’t wanna run the ac if I didn’t have to since it pulls a decent amount of power
 
Looking good as per usual. Frost is sure starting to build up and the colour starting to come on the fans. How long do you reckon that strain flowers for?
I have another 3 weeks with my Dinafem Gorilla girls and the top shelf ones are going to be nice fat mama's lol with a serious fuel and fruity smell atm.
Take care and see you on your next update.

Hey Trenton. I think you would be fine with 2 - 315w units. One over each 3x3 area with a good strong 8" exhaust pulling the heat out. Look for a unit with a remote ballast so it can sit outside the room, I wish my dual 315 had one instead of being attached to the hood. With the weather cooling down you'll probably be good without an AC. If you're not happy with the end results from 2 separate 315s after one run, get 1 or 2 more for your next run. I just had a quick peek in my tent and I can't believe the trichome production with the CMH, its crazy.

Thanks Zypheruk, I was told 8-9 weeks flower on the Animal Cookies and I've also read that too, but I've also read 9-10 weeks. So since I supercropped at 2 weeks flower due to height issues I'll be going a total of 10 weeks flower, i was planning going 9 weeks
 
Week 8 of Flower day 49
I'm repeating week 7 of my nutrient feeding schedule. Supercropping them definitely stunted this shit out of them (bud growth wise) My ppm was a little high this past week. Ph at a perfect 6, temps and humidity have been perfect also. Everything looks healthy frosty hell, I just didn't end up with big or fat colas like I should have. Hopefully they fill out, they got 3 full weeks before they're due for harvest. I'm definitely doing a lot of things different on my next run. 20181103_002612.jpg 20181103_002525.jpg 20181103_001958.jpg 20181103_001933.jpg 20181103_001838.jpg 20181103_212243.jpg

Smart...I’m hoping so. We will see this is prob my last run with my 600w...looking for somethin more efficient...also if you have 3 weeks left you think about defoliating the canopy??
 
Day 56 week 9 of Flower
Two more weeks to go, all the branches I supercropped didn't produce big size buds, but all the branches that I left alone are pretty fat, all buds are rock hard. So I'm hoping they maintain their firmness throughout drying and curing. I changed out my reservoir and had to add more water to drop my ppm AMD had to add some pH up. Plants are drinking up 1.4 gallons a day, should be more. Weather is getting really cold so I stopped using my AC. RT are 75°F and RH is 35%.

Week 9 nutrients per gallon
GH Floranova Bloom - 5ml
GH Floralicious Plus- 1ml
CE Sugaree- 12ml
GH Dry Koolbloom- .5 Tsp

Killer run there @Deltagreen Girls are looking great! Did you say your using a 630 by sunstream? get it off amazon? Ive been eyeing there 630 but the reviews wernt great on amazon. Have you had any issues? Are you using the generic bulbs that came with it? I bought one of there 1k de lights and have been happy so far with it.

Yeah, I've been defoilating a little at a time, I didn't want to stress them anymore than they were since supercropping.

That is some serious frost. If it was my grow I think I would be more than happy with the results we are seeing here, stunning.

Right on Zypheruk, no doubt they're frosty as hell, but I was hoping for some weight in this crop. It's my 1st run since my 10 year hiatus.

Thanks west coast, yeah I'm using their 630w dual 315 unit and the bulbs they came with. As of right now I can't give a full review until I harvest, try it out, and check out a few other things. It does produce some long frosty trichomes and I haven't had any mechanical problems.
 
Week 10 day 66
I haven't been able to update as often as I would like to, my back is acting up especially around this time of year.
I let my week 9 solution run 3 extra days so they can drink up a little more koolbloom. Lower buds are swelling up, so are some top buds, but some plants the buds are not as big as they should be. I started my flush, so we'll see what happens in the next week. I had to cut off 3 tops early because of light burn.

Week 10 nutrients per gallon
GH Florakleen - 10ml
