Meny will say different.....

in my flowering tent the lights on I make sure it's 20 lowest 18 and lights on 26 highest 28 Celsius.

These temps and consideration the soil and feed of plant are bang on the growth is day and night. (For me that is).

Since doing this I find that growth is very rapid and now I'm at the point of increasing feeds because everything is in collaboration and growth is very good.

Best thing about a small tent I can play with temps if outside is cold by playing with the valves lol I draft air from loft and bedroom thrn lights on I just draft from loft....

your case a radiator with thermo setting then that way that's sorted.

Like the slipper bandit said note things down,

Every grow I did I learned what went wrong and fixed and fixed, then joined here and was taught a thing or two that I noted down too.

Make sure you know what happened and how you solved, after a while you get to the point of very good growth then you just need to sort the feed.

For me I would never use tap water for growing I allways buy water so I eliminate that cal mag situation after that it's less problems appearing in grows and easier deffs to work with

Been struggling for a while in tent with heat issues, even thro December due to mild weather, then found orig box my extrator fan came in and realised its quite shit lol so gonna sort that issue first..

Another issue i have that im only able to extract and pull air from attic space so this aint ideal, tryed pulling air from landing area but noise was a problem, and kids want friends over etc so a 6" silver pipe on show was abit suspect...(:

temps ranging from 24-27 (with a nice dip for lights out)I've my sms fan speed controller dialed into 26c. In veg rh at about 60-65 n flowering 50-55. Good air circulation. N I'm sure there is more but it's not coming to mind

Lets hope youve not got lockout dude. Id suggest trimming the dead brown leafs so the plant can use its energy on other parts n next time remember to add calmag in flowering as the pk levels rises they crave calmag like a smack head needing a fix

Will cut off dead leaves and see what happens...been using 1ml per litre of magne cal+ since veg every feed but only ph before adding nutes so like zedd pointed out it looks like plants not getting benefits of cal+

If I do that I will have problems all over again, my grows are very personal lol not shared either.

The tap water here is like swimming pool even I don't drink that water lol my fridge has a filter I drink that. And only have very low plant count so not much water needed lol.

Fuck council pool water I mean tap water.

But if I was a production man or have allot more plants I would use tap water but that's never my intention and never will be.

Shit if I have extra that can get cured for when ever :lol:

But I did use it and came across shit loads of issues I didn't know what's what lmao, so I eliminate tap water and keeping ambient temps so now the ladys are asking for more food lol.....

all is good with them out of the way.
