Water droplets also magnify the lights rays bruv so he warters medium gets soaked,lower growth gets effected as its closest to largest water zone.

Listen, I'm giving him advice because he's in allmix same as I am , doing a full bio grow, after 3-4 weeks the plant will be looking for nutes, that soil runs out after this period, and u must add now as they take a week or so to start feeding the soil, I had leaves doing exactly the same thing !& it will get worse unless the feed is started. Get some algi Vera & spay em , it's excellent shizz

In the box room, both tents are 0.6x0.6x1.4, there's a 100mm extractor in one tent and a 125mm extractor in the other. Yes, cooltubes aren't that expensive but they're not in my budget right now, bills and responsibilities first, but this month I get to splash out on nutes!
I never expected heat to be an issue with the 150W's though which is why I didn't get cooltubes in the first place. Definitely plan to get them when I eventually upgrade to 250W.My ducting is taped to the vent that goes directly outside the house, and I've taken down the filter so as not to impede air flow. I don't have cool air intake, leaving the window a bit usually does the trick but there have been a lash of robberies in my area recently so I won't be doing that for a while, hence leaving the door open instead. There is a rad in the room but it doesn't work properly so isn't an issue.
Done, and the vent goes directly outside the house.
There are 5 inches between the 2 tents and I can't stretch it out any further than that. I'll try your suggestion about the thermometers though!

Hmm are you putting your ballast on the inside of your tent? They can put off a nice bit of heatIn the box room, both tents are 0.6x0.6x1.4, there's a 100mm extractor in one tent and a 125mm extractor in the other.

Nope, they're both outside their respective tents, and are nowhere near each other so there's not a combination of heat gathering somewhere.

Lmao, it's no warmer than your average 3 bed. Has me scratching my head too. I've been growing for over 10yrs but mostly in wardrobes and with CFL's, I only started using tents and HID's this year. I had great fun during the summer keeping temps down, had doors wide open and fans blowing on frozen water bottles, lol!!!

My head would be wrecked trying to sort the temps out. Ive a 1.2x1.2x2 tent and my cooltube and fan keeps temps down as low as 20c if i dont use my fan speed controller

I honestly don't know @Naes, but the gas boiler is in the room directly underneath. It goes on most days now during lights off, but evening times I love my open fire, which is not under my grow room.
The tents are raised about 2ft or so off the ground, I use the unit they're standing on to store all my grow bits n pieces.

Ive a 600 watt. Its some job. Im getting a veg tent after the christmas been meaning to get one for agesJammy. It is!
What light do you have? I do wonder if I would have been better off going with just one larger tent and light but I wanted separate veg and flower tents.

Welcome back brother.
Sorry to hear about your mate and the loss of your gear.
It's 2017 and this shit is still illegal.
Some joke !

The kit I can replace, my man is still waiting to find out whether they'll be charging him months after the bust. The worst of it is it's screwed up his housing situation. Even if he doesn't get a charge he's out of council property for the immediate future. :/
In this day and age, people being made homeless over a plant. :/
And thanks, it's good to be back.

Sorry to hear about your mate.
I dont have any experience with that particular ballast but lumii seem to have some good products so i dont see why it wouldnt be any good. Its probably pricey though im sure you can get a cheaper one that does the same
