Its gettin too dayum hot!

Its getting too damn hot in my closet during the day (100f) or higher during the heat of day.. i want to switch my lights to where my off period is during the heat of the day, im talkin about my flowering closet so im on 12/12 .. how would i go about switching my lights 12/12 cycle ?

Hey, I would say move it at increments of 1 hour a day. Example: If right now you have it at:turn on at 8am, turn off at 8pm, then.. Day 1: turn on at 7am, off at 7pm, day 2: on at 6am, off at 6pm

In my opinion, this won't help your temperature problem much...especially since I assume you are getting your intake air from indoors..which is usually cooled less at night. In the meantime, use fungicide sprays and there are a few science experiment type things you can try to cool the area. One video example I saw is a paper plate w/ ice + salt covered in aluminum foil with holes in it--you can find that by googling homemade air conditioner or something.

100 degrees is pretty hot. I thought plants died after 95 degrees.

Just give them 24 hours of darkness and restart your lights on the new time.

Hmmm, not worried about hermies?

i just dont want my girls to go hermie on me. and yea i thougt growth stunted at 100 .. but they seem to be handling it

gradual changes are always the better route, always a chance to herm on ya......i would agree that 24hrs of dark is a viable solution here. then set your timer, one day will not hurt them probably


Peace
