So what sort of humidifiers/dehumidifiers are we running in those inkbirds? I’m looking at putting a portable air con unit it my grow kitchen, I only need a small one as the total volume is only 6m3, I was gonna get an air cooler but I heard they struggle to drop the air temp by more than 3°C, I’m gonna be wanting to drop it 15°C at times. (Even with an infeed fan and big exhaust it gets to mid 30’s)

Hope everyones having a good weekend !! Your mum looks good bro but can't say the same about the clones also I'm no expert but I don't think 9° will be doing any good for the new cuts , how long is it staying under 20° for do you know ? That's the minimum I Iet it get to ideally not under 25° while rooting/germinating but yea I'm no expert that's just what works for me

shitty spring weather, one day it’s 20° lights out next it’s 9°, 24° lights on then 30+°, the room isn’t very well controlled yet, I’m not doing anything about it until the system is built. The clones were my first attempt, just wanted to see if they’d take with the same conditions, if they pull through they pull through, if not, they compost. I’m still gonna build my cloner, thinking about dragging my arse out to the shed and starting it now. Feeling a bit fucked cos id been out for a bike ride today

I feel ya on the spring weather gets like that growing in my shed alltough because I'm a stay at home father now i kind of get time to to check and adjust heaters as needed pretty regularly, also I must say because I've spent Abit more money than I'm used to for these seeds I've put way more effort into it here's a little picture of the Gelato auto I think it may be getting leggy not sure yet but I may turn the light up a little still nothing on the critical purple if still no action in the next couple days will email Herbie's about it

give them time they be right, I spend 4 hours a day in rooms sometimes longer depends on strength of doobie at the time , dont use or have heaters lights are good enough for temps 26-28 steedy in rooms(about to order new lights up-grading).Have had seeds (autos) take 5-7 days some times put a plastic cup or something along those lines over it make it sweat might help - Herbie's generally pretty good supplier

I run my lights through the night (helios450x in a 4x4) and without a heater it barely gets 22° Wich is to cold for my liking I grow in a un insulated tin shed cold as fuck these last few months can't wait for it to get warmer. Nice what lights you getting ? And yea man Herbie's is cool was a first time using a seed bank and they were good that's the freebie gelato auto I put it in tui organic seedling mix and Abit of mycorrhizae on Thursday I think, that's it today yea man has a diy humidity dome on it just took it of for the picture and also I gave it the tinyest taste of tui seeweed temps stay between 25 28° it's in a propagation tent under a supposedly 400w blurple dimmed as low as it will go have a better light on the way in the post now but as soon as it can handle it it will go under either the Helios I have or 400w MH/600w hps still haven't decided.

Got home and all was well, the mother survived 7days without any care quite nicely, I had poured a lot of water into the tote the pot was sitting in, and that was dry but she was still trickling along, she’d grown 4-6” on the side closest to the lightbulb will get this aerocloner built tonight, chop her up and have another try at it. So much to do this week with the pipework and valve install on the recirc system. Getting close tho now.

Nice bro looking good. Finally got a few to get past the 2nd set of leaves so fingers crossed.one in tent and two outside. Definitely ordering some seeds when the time comes, too much fucking around with these ones. I've lost alot of time now. Should of been flipping the tent to flower now. But live and learn eh.
