    Advice on dialing in temps and humidity in tent .

    This is true. Lost a whole batch of C99 seeds due to this. My dome has a vent to let air in and got busy and forgot to open it up. Sucked.

    What’s wrong with my plant 3rd week of flower

    Agreed. This forum is filled with 90% assholes who act like they were born knowing everything and shit in newbies like they were never new. I remember when this forum had more helpful members instead of the "about a pound" trolls I like overgrow a lot better.

    DIY with Quantum Boards

    DIY with Quantum Boards

    Yeah I get that but at start up the 80% rule doesnt matter. Only for continuous load. Be cool if thats the issue and dimming them back to normal operating wattages solves the issue.

    DIY with Quantum Boards

    I have other timers I can try. Yeah I usually do the 80% rule with breakers. Which would be 1200w on this 1500w timer

    DIY with Quantum Boards

    Its just weird that the cord plugged in is the main cord for the ballast thats having issues. The ballast thats working fine is plugged into that cord if that makes sense?
