Meltdown temps? Give them shade!

38c/100f temps aren’t a time to fool around and see if you’ll get denser buds or max growth. I’m putting this brood under the tree mid-day until the weather goes down 10 degrees in a few more days.

We've had 100dg days for the past month (Nor cal) and my plants seem to love it, growing like motherfuckers in direct sun. Just gotta keep on top of watering

The plants I grew outdoors in the Central Valley typically grew under 6 weeks of 100+ temps straight. But those were in soil and that makes a big difference in their heat tolerance. I think it's a good idea for OP to move them under the shade if these temps are unusual though.

Nice. Pots or ground?

10 gallon pots on cement. They're the black plastic nursery ones, to to keep the soil from getting too hot I spray painted several flat white, wrapped a few others with flat white posterboard. Also on those black plastic discs that lift an inch off the ground, mostly for drainage

10 gallons for me are doable for me (they have little handles on each side which help), I have grown in 15 gallons before, can't lift those, gotta slide them.
