Hi everyone,

First of all sorry if I ask without posting pictures but I can't take pictures now. Don't have any camera or similar around.
Anyway, I have 2 cream caramel autos, day 28 today.
All really good so far. Impressive growth, they both 50-60 inches and realy bushy. lots of sidebranches and nodes. maybe 8-9 nodes each and a lot of side branches.

1) Always been super careful with watering. Today I just noticed that ONLY the bottom branches and leaves (i am talking about the leaves and the branches/side branches of the first 2-3 nodes) started dropping a bit, the branches especially. I last watered it on Monday so decided to give it water, will see the reaction in a few hours. Am using cfls but with very good reflection. What this could be? could it be under watering?it is only the bottom leaves/branches. and only 1 plant which was last watered on monday. (the other was last watered on tue evening and look perfect).

2) Have a very cheap old school thermometer which costed me less than a pack of rolling paper therefore need to be kept vertical. Can't put it in the pot anymore cos is quite big and the ladies are too branchy. So i had to move it basically slightly above lights. This may seem (and it probably is) a very stupid question. Well, obviously warm air goes up so is it normal if above lights I got like 34 C ? at pot level/plant level as always been 24 lights off and between 27-30/31max lights on....tthere s a fan on 24 hrs
 
for question 1 we really need pics, all plants droop daily shortly before lights-off.

for question 2 yes totally normal temperature bands.
 
How can your plants be 50 to 60 inches tall?Get used to lifting your pots and if they feel light they need water.Hang your thermometer near the top of the plants.Hanging above your lights will not give a correct reading.
