Dont have a MH Light Have them under T5 (6,600 Lumens) for 24 hrs (I think i'll bring it down to 18/6 next week) plan to veg till i get around 4 clones of each plan, then sog it uprory i see you mentioned about t5 fluoresents what type/colour do you use and how long from seed do you keep them under fluoresents for before switching to mh light
yeah im think the same temps outside the dome is 18 (28 inside)i was just worried about the cold on the off hours of the light. ive no heater in the attic and would imagine its getting pretty cold up there so just wanted them to get a lil bit established first
what have you got your setup in? I done an attic grow and had a makeshift tent made from reflective sheeting and it was shite, waaaay too cold... Got a heater for the last couple weeks but it was too little too late. Now ive got a box built out of insulation, 250w HPS, and fan running on the same timer as the light so cold air isnt being blown in when there is no light for heat. Best of luck with the grow! Keep us updated! Id probably leave the light on 24/0 just for another day or two and then switch to the 18/6 you're planning. I run 20/4.i was just worried about the cold on the off hours of the light. ive no heater in the attic and would imagine its getting pretty cold up there so just wanted them to get a lil bit established first
The timer running with the lights is a bad call, I used to do that and the humidity spikes during the dark cycle...I lost like 2-3 ounces to bud mold for that very reason before.what have you got your setup in?

keep it easy with the feeding really you should wait 14 days after sprouting before you give them a feednot sure rory but bit the bullit and dropped it down to 18/6 tonight and lowered the light to 24" and gave them a ltr each.
This is also true, I remember looking into my tent at times and humidity would be 90%+.The timer running with the lights is a bad call, I used to do that and the humidity spikes during the dark cycle...I lost like 2-3 ounces to bud mold for that very reason before.
