i just checked on my lights they have gone off as required and the heater was buzzing away happily i stood in there and i wasnt cold like i was in the other half of the shed brrr
so thats rested my mind i cant imagine it getting too cold for the plants in there
only concern and its an easy little 1 the switch on the heater glows red will this 1 led of light bother my plants i cant imagine and it can be solved with a piece of tape if need be
sofar this light has been the worst part of my grow ;) iv had 3 flawless grows before this so i thought id document this 1 because all i have in memory of my last ones is a police rap sheet listing the street value of my plants and a sheet listing destroyed items such as. lights fans resovoirs etc so i will do this 1 proper and have as many pics as i can i cant imagine you guys getting bored of looking at weed i know i dont

is it getting freezing on a nite were you are,it is in yorkshire. if your growing outside in a shed. wouldnt it be best to have the 12/12 cycle. the lites on in the nite, when its at its coldest, or have you got a heater there. im growing in a closet in my garage, and it gets to about 30deg , on a nite when the lites are off.

i have a 2kw heater in there set on half way blowing into the mack of a 9" desk fan i have a massive bionair 1 or something but crikey that makes the shed vibrate

i went in there when i woke up/well got woken up at 1 pm and it was nice and bearable even in just a dressing gown i felt ok in there it was certanly the equivalent of a summers night
iv heard of people using a system of 12 hours dark then 6 hrs light then 12 dark/6 hrs light etc any of you peeps heard of this? i cant personaly see this doing anything eccept shortening the flowering period and deminishing the yield the plants were grown in the shed from seeds with the lights on 24/7 for 5-6 weeks i think the heater is doing its job also i havbe won a hygromiter off e bay for £5 just waitin for that from hong kong should be about a fortnight
the nutes i am using now is canna. terra flores .. i was using tomatorite but stopped using nutes and used just warm /tap water from the cold tap allowed to warm overnight in the grow room due to slight nute burn on some of the fan leaves on 1 of the plants as soon as this gro is done i have to get a big resovoir and flood and drain system with air pump and heater and i need a new tds meter and ph meters basicaly whet ur seeing from this grow is me managing with a budget and i think its going pretty well so far i cant wait to see what this room looks like when i can afford to kit it out properly with the £70 i spend a week on bud now
i have uploaded a few pics of the heater and extractor fan some branchy nodes and i think the timer and ballasts

you call that a budget grow, set up looks very decent, u must have some big plans for ur shed.
I have never hered abt 6hrs light for flowering, i agree with u it would only result in lower yield, plants need light to produce buds, less light less bud! Im waiting on a ph/ec meter as well saw 1 on ebay keep gettin outbidded.
nodes are close together in that pic, good sign.
few pics of my BUDGET grow, very budget lol.

well my mate gave me these lights so im still earning them i only get like £180 a week wages agency work (keeps me off the radar if i get caught i cant lose my job ) i pay 40 rent a week 20 i owe my girlfriends mother a week she lent me £450 for the shed setup £10 a week electricity £70 + on shit quality bud leaves me 20 for petrol and 20 to spend in the week so yeh £20 a week is budget but im kinda making it a budget cause i love the weed so much so without having no smoke till harvest this is the best way i can do it m8
