lol cant beat the wandering mind when u had a smoke, its when the best thinking is done... not sure about a double harvest, not read much on them, i know people do them though, i think best n easiest way would be to put a CFL or 2 underneath as uplighting, i think Rasclot did that and got some monsterous yields.
lol yeah the wandering has kept me happy and occupied many a time i find it especially useful while problem solving, i have thought about the cfl's mate i got 5 leads with pugs and bulb fitting on ready to go i haven't got any more electric points for them i have 1 for the light and the other has a plug bank in (4) and i'v got them taken by the fans the only other way would to be run electric upstairs coz everything in our bedroom is taken, i don't want to push the 1 running the light cause our electric trips easy, it's shit but we only got 1 electric point in each of the rooms upstairs

Rewire a couple of the fans together, 2 to a plug maybe and just put a 13amp fuse in the plug if it isnt allready... i think u should be safe with that, im not an electrician so i dunno, but i usually wire a few low amp things together, might solve ur probs.

I think when i get the refelctor sealed propper n get the right connectors and another oscilating fan goin on them that should drop the temp a bit more... but for a day or 2 i think they will survive.

could be a number of things m8 what nutes you using?

biobloom 2.0 6.0 3.5 last week i done one water with veg bio grow 8.0 2.0 6.0 thinking that the nitrogen in the veg bio grow would help my plant and i think it did thats why i was thinking n def ?

sounds good mate i'd go to the builders merchants for the sealant aswell they usually only stock decent sealants there a 1 in my local called c3 i think i haven't used it since it first come out but that's the best i,ve found so far deals well with heat over time it's about £8 a tube, i gotta do a bit of problem solving the plants are leaning so i'm thinking of getting some fishing line and using that to pull them back towards the corner poles gonna be a nightmare doing the back 2 from outside the tent time to get the thinking cap on again lol

too high m8 yeah they will grow/flower but it wont be what your expected in them temps for long periods.
Yeah i know the temp isnt ideal, but not really got the aerowing reflector set up propper as the connectors are the wrong size and its not sealed tight, will be sorting that tomorrow along with a new oscilating fan, hopefully that will drop the heat to required temps... so i think for a night or 2 they will be ok... fingers crossed lol

do you not give her much of the bio-bizz then lad? im using the same nutes the plant in the pic i was giving 4ml/ltr of BB grow for ages. none of my plants have ever showed signs like that using organic bio-bizz nutes.

and now im in 4wk flower i give grow 2ml, bloom 4ml, topmax 4ml all per litre, pk 13/14 soon and maybe ripen and my plants are loving it.

Definate purpleish/blueish tinge to leaf tips curling with necrosis.

yeah i was lookin at B&Q's website and they dont appear to do heat resistant sealant, unless they just didnt show it on there site, gotta go there for the connectors so will look see, not sure where the local builders merchant is round here, so if they dont do it at B&Q i will have to get walkin lol.

not sure how u mean by pulling them back to the corner but wouldnt fishing line cut through them, not been fishing for a fair few years, but i remeber it cuttin the fuck outa my fingers when i tied them up by mistake lol

N u just love wearing that cap lol... i'll stick to the 1 with the big D onit lol
