You must have a fair sized set up to flower 30 plants.

Wouldn't it be worth sacrificing 2x2ft to keep a few mothers, clones and seeds?
It would but I’ve never run mothers and don’t really wanna try and get 12weeks in for some bs apparently if you don’t clone em professionally you can get mildew and small yields but I having been thinking about it I can just about grow lol and I also am trying to get another flower room so (fingers crossed)

Had a few errors in flower just switched to auto pot and didn’t know not to pour water in from top which caused nutrient lockout in week 5 flower hopefully comes out good real dense Z33 day 50 start week 8 should I flush day 57?

That's not quite accurate bud, it's really simple to keep a few mum and equally simple to clone them.

A clone tent and 4x t5s keeps my tent going with mum's, seeds or/and clones, that works out about a fiver a week.

I would ignore that bs about professionaly cloned.

Its easy and you wanna learn how to trust me even a wee box wae a cfl is enough for mothers i dont keep any but thats cos i like growing from seed everytime far more variety that way that i like but if i was doing 30 plants i would cos you want consistency and its easier to get it with clones all the same than with seed

You know what I’m actually going to give it a shot I’ve actually got the space for a 4x4 and have a few left over clones z33 I’m gunna give it a go keep 3 under a hps at 400w I’m gonna have 2 flower rooms also so will save a bunch of time and money

That ideal @Leeski you're spot on you don't need anything more.

Did you get fine wire rods with your green qube tent?

At a glance I thought they'd be fir the vents but with a closer look I can't see anywhere to put them it, also I'm less sure that's what they're for, can you shed light on their purpose?

Na mate not that I can remember , will check later, is there any open seams on the doors had a few tents that have inserts to add some structure to the doors ect ….

Your humidity is real low 34% try get at least 60% rh and 26c-28c they will look much better
Ye humidity is down but its a struggle to keep it up. That temp is actually the lowest its been. Temps dropped outside by 10 degrees so the air pulling in was much cooler. Iv since cranked the light to 440w and its now sitting between 26⁰-28⁰. Plants are due a feed tomorrow this usually puts my humidity into the 50s for a day or 2. Id love a humidifier in there tbh, thatl possibly be my next purchase. Any recommendations? Keep in mind its not a massive room.

You could probably get away with not buying one - you have room at the moment for another 10ltr pot of soil keep that watered and as your plants grow your humidity will rise …..

I would recommend a ram ultra sonic I think 5-6L about £50 also some inkbirds from Amazon ink bird temp control and inkbird humdity control I use them cheap and easy to use have a look on YouTube but I would try keep the temp 26.c minimum then when ur a week or 2 in flower try bring rh and temp down a touch they will shoot up

Cheers mate, i will have a look. £50 sounds reasonable to me especially if it improves the yield. I will be introducing a 300w mini sun cfl approx 4 weeks into flower also. I think the rh will be easy enough to keep fairly low during flower, il find out soon enough.

Hey bud, what size or age is your plants and what light set up are you using?

Under 50% doesn't sound right for the uk unless it's seedlings you have under hid?
Where are you taking the rh% readings from and does the sensor have shroud or sheild from the light?

It's not unusual for light to skew temp and humidity figures.
