OK so i couldnt keep the HPS cool enough last night and temps in my grow room reached 32C so i have had to get another flouro.
This time i have bought a 200w 6400k CFL mainly because they didnt have a 125w. I will be trial running the Cooltube with the HPS after the weekend as i am busy visiting a friend this weekend.
I cannot believe how much the ambient temperature of my house is effecting my grow room. Here in the UK we have seen temperatures in excess of 25C which has been great but ive never prayed for rain so much in my life.
Hopefully when i trial run the cooltube (not in my grow room) it will prove that its going to work as i am expecting to be able to touch the glass of the cooltube without it burning.
A couple of the plants are showing a couple of burnt spots from the extreme heat they went through last night but i am sure they will bounce back. Have given the other 2 a flush today and also gave them all some PH6 plain water until i had 20% runoff.
I will update with pics on friday so you can see the difference the topping has made.
Thanks for watching my thread.
