My baby right now, beside it is a heater(which I will explain) and a humidifer

So MY PROBLEM! which is while a big one
So I came home today from work and my Temp in side the room was mid 40oc WHICH is not good. Then I turn the heat down on this stupid heater and it droped to 21.4oc, I can deal with that. Now when I turn my light off the temp drops alot like down to 10oc

Problem heat marjo fluctuation

So far I also have no vent or fans inside as well the top of my grow room has nothing on top of it so while some air flow come from that

Grow room size is 3 feet by 3 feet and 6 feet high

Please give me some advice not sure what to do.... Right now im running a small heater plus a base board heater WHICH is to MUCH already seen a increase in my hydro bill

Please help
Thanks

ya could try putting your fan on the timer with the lights, that should help keep the temp more stable .. thats what i did and it worked out pretty good.
 
Yea I understand that the light gives off heat the problem is when the light is off the temp drops! to like 10oc, which will kill my plants. Ive been able to keep some what of a stable temp right now between 23-27oc. Tomorrow I might buy some wheater stripping and cover my grow room in it. The problem is I already lots of money so hope my crop turns out good

hope that helps. That plant looks pretty stretchy to me and that is caused by colder evenings. A larger heater with a good thermostat would probably be the most effective solution. Home depot has suitable heaters for like $80.

I was going to say, it looks like a mother that has been harvested. You need to top it, or better yet, tie the tops over to get it bushier so you can take more cuttings off of it. And put it in a 5 gallon pot asap.

Cheers.
