Hello all! I am in the early stages of my first stealth grow in a "Space Bucket". After germinating the seed, which was the only bagseed in an oz, I planted it in a small pot. Currently, it has been in the dirt and 8" under 4 23w Daylight CFLs on an 18/6 schedule. Watering is done every other day with a syringe just to water around the base with 6.5PH water. Also, the soil is MG Organic. The temp is ranging between 85*F during the day to 65*F at night, the ambient air is held around 74-76 during the day and 70*F at night, humidity is unknown. Hopefully, I am not leaving any other information, it has been in this setup for 10 days now, and want to get people's opinions on how it looks. I know the temperature thing is my biggest issue and I am trying to get the temps down but the CFLs are producing too much heat! There is also an intake fan on the side of the bucket to work as a booster to the main fan/ac/humidifier connected and an exhaust fan at the top. Is everything fine as is and I am just overreacting with first-time nerves? Just as an FYI I am on a tight budget and am currently thinking about upgrading to a UFO style light that will fit and produces less heat. Let me know what you guys think! And thanks in advance!
