In my hot little cupboard... I have the plants that will become my Grow Number 4

1 X LEMON SKUNK

1X JACK HERER

1X BANANA JOINT

7X GREATWHITESHARK or possibly EARLY WIDOW (regular seeds - so will have to wait to see - how many females I get)

My last Mission was a very heated Mission - the temps were rising to over 30 degrees celcius... and I tried everything in my power to cool it down but lost 4 of my 7 plants to the heat! :(

NOW I know all about growing in summer* in the south of spain*

:))

So recap! Grow number 1 began last september (2011) and I produced from 13 plants about 300 grams of weed! 2nd Grow began January (2012) and produced from 8 plants about 220 grams of weed! 3rd grow began in April (2012) had 7 plants and lost 4 to extreme heat!

NOW lets get growing!

Damn your fast on starting things up! Just read through your last go around, hopefully high temps won't be a problem this time. Your canopy was extremely even, can't wait to see what you do this round.

Good call, if you get them nice and close small plants shouldn't slow down in growth too much. I'm about to put some monsters in 12/12, not stoked about the bill with a/c!

The Repotting Worked!
The thrips are gone!
The plants are still alive - and have survived being repotted in such a brutal manner............
Amazing!
