yeah I read about supplimenting with co2 for high temps. Would you just literally get a tank of co2 and run it at a certain ppm? Its startin to get a bit high tec doin all that lol. I dunno if autoflowers can handle high temps.. They are pretty tough being a rudaralis..think they come from Mexico... Pretty hot there lol... I could have that wrong tho... The coming from Mexico bit lol.

CO2 is when you have every else dialed in. it really needs to be a sealed room/tent too. and if you get too much, plants and you can die.
actually ruderalis genetics are from Russia. short growing season so they have to flower earlier than sativa/indica.

yeah... I think ill be leaving the co2 alone cor now lol. Ah.. Russia... I dunno where I got Mexico from. Iv read so much its all become a bit of a jumble. Lol. I like the idea of auto's And I'm not sure weather to run them again for my next crop... I have some Martian mean green seeds, they are photo period. Id lime to mainline them and supercrop. If not then I'm gonna grow the think different autos by Dutch passion, they are the biggest yeilding autoflowers at the moment. Think I might have to flip a coin lol.

maybe you know this but autos have less THC than a similar photoperiod strain. the ruderalis genetics is dirt weed: very low THC. i'd give the photos a shot and then compare when you finish the grow. pros and cons of each.

I will say I haven't read the whole thread to really know exactly what's going on hhere
but I will tell you your environment is every thing
The only way you'll get great yeilds, gpw, is having it consistently ideal.
Co2 will do nothing unless your light is intense. Hid intense.
Autos in my setup would be failure. I veg too long, I want control.

yeah I'm trying to get everything a bit better for my next grow. I want some big yeilds lol. Gonna invest in some more bits and pieces for my next grow. This one has kinda been a make it up as you go along lol. Its taught me alot... So had readind all day every day and now chatting to you guys on here has been brilliant and invaluable. Really. Next grow I really wanna use hps. Iv literally just sat Down after experimenting with my 600w hps. And my 6" extractor that I haven't tried yet as I plugged it in when I got it and thought fuck that lol was so loud. I just rigged it up and my light too instead of the cfl's. Its a warm day here... Maybe 25c ( warm for uk lol) my tent temps were touching 28-29c usually between 23 and 26 lights on mid day.
anyways got my 600 hps big extractor an extra computer fan blowing directly upwards. Watchem my thermomiter climb and clamb and climb it was rising slower and slower but still raising a 35.2c.... That's when I thought.... Tis ain't gonna work with out a cool tube or air cooled reflector. I know I need to invest in that for next grow also an intake fan.
I was thinking... And this might be a mental idea but coul work.... Hear me out lol.... Could yo do a grow in a big refrigerator with it turned on while the lights are running and off when lights off? Lol. If not I was thinking.... If you had a small refrigerator could you some how use it as w way of sourcing cold air for the intakes on your tent.... Sounds a bit crazy.... But... In the UK, ac units are expensive as fuck... Also not many people own one so you would unlikely pick one up cheap second hand.
I know my refrigerator. Ideas are a bit wacky lol but maybe... Just maybe it could help? Only an idea lol. Any thoughts?

yeah I think the aircooled hood is what I need mate... Did u read the earlier post about me trying my 600 with big extractor earlier? Lol. I was pleasantly. Surprised ho much quieter the extractor was with ducting attached. I could live with that.

do it. it will work for sure. your tent temp shoud be the same as room temp. intake one side of tent, exhasut other side of tent. just supply some fresh air at the bottom of the tent.
