Hey neo! I moved the light about a foot away from the top of the tent and I think its helping. Its probably about 30 degrees where I live right now so cooling is no problem but when it hits may im going to need an a.c. unit. I just taped the door a quarter of the way up and have a box fan blowing in on low. The one seed that didnt sprout some how ended up all the way on top haha. So I put him back in hoping to see him pop out right this time. My filter is still on the ground too though bought the wrong size clamps. There's some discoloration on one of them but I shouldn't be too worried about that? Besides that as soon as I turned that light on and came back an hour later they were popping haha.

Just a thought but have you turned off the central heating to that room, like turning down the radiators? That should make it cooler in the room, therefore cooler in your tent?

It's good to keep things simple with regards to nutrients, I use a product called Formulex for seedlings and early veg. One bottle does it all! Go very easy on the nutrients you are adding as the plants won't need any for the first two weeks so you don't want to end up burning them.

As for the little madam in her shell, give her time as she may not want to show herself just yet.

And stop sitting there watching them grow!!! lol

Lol I swear they do grow faster hAha. But yeah I have the heating off in the room its just such a small room within like a 9x9 room so it heats up quick but just opening the room door a little bit keeps them nice and cool, I just have to be careful because of privacy of course:)

Maybe toss a small vent in the bottom of the door? Just an idea, ive done it on my room and just painted it the same color as the door. Pretty stealth at a quick glance

Yeah I may have to do that. I mean as long as I crack the door I get a nice little 70 degree breeze in here but a vent would just allow me to keep the door closed negating all issues and boom ill be a ninja again.:)

man i'm telling you 24/7 intake/exhaust makes all the difference, if there's one thing you should really fix, it is adding a real inline fan that's light proof so that you can use it 24/7

Thanks nizza. I do run them 24/7 just the exhaust made the exterior room hot. Which in return heated the tent. (Poor circulation) I do have a temporary fix for it just leaving the room door open (not tent). I may redo the exhaust once they get bigger to just allow the heat to run into the vent but right now its just blowing into thw ceiling lol. I lost a seedling but the other 5 still look pretty with an exception of one gimpy guy.

Perfect temps. 80 degrees 50 percent humidity. Just cracking a door does so much lol. I decided to not add the nutrients today. Only the root enhancer. Trying not to overdo things since its my first time.

I just wanna point out you don't need to scrub the air and waste the life of your charcoal until the flower stage
