HI Folks, we are still pretty new to the site as well as growing but I thought id get started with a journal and try to add a pic of each of our Auto Seedlings. For an Overview we have a 10x10 attic room with a 400w MH in one of the bays. We have a 600W HPS to go into another bay still that we just picked up. we are using ProMix BX and have Botanicare pure blend pro soil Nutrients Grow and Bloom. All the plants came out of the ground between 8/17 - 8/21. We germinated straight into 3 gallon Pots and we have a 100 percent success rate 4/4 lol. Im concerned about the size of these so far, wondering if I've had the room too hot (it was 91 in there today). They look really Green but not much for size yet but maybe that will come soon

For almost all strains 91 degrees is too hot. Although my grow space gets toasty, I get real nervous when the temps go over 85 degrees. Does this attic room have AC? I'm sure if you supply some additional info on the room itself, you'll get some suggestions on how to lower the temps because 90 plus IMO is not conducive to healthy plants.
Welcome to AFN and good luck with the grow!

yeah, we didn't know how hot it would get until we fired up the light and with another 600w going in we may will have problems for sure next summer. its supposed to cool down after tomorrow and with the door open we are keeping it down to about 86 right now. We do have a window AC unit for next summer Thanks for the response and welcome

Welcome bro. Your into the right spot bro so no change need there.. if you want your titles changed you'll have to contact a mod to change it to whatever you like. If you want I can ask someone to contact you. Also I don't think you mentioned what strains you where growing love to know what's going on in there.

Hey dk, welcome aboard! I updated your thread title to make it clear that it's a journal. If you want me to add the strains to the title, shoot me a PM.
Thanks magic, the strains are named in the photos, they are Pineapple Express, Critical Jack from Dinafem, Dark Devil from Sweet Seeds, and Northern Lights from Vision Seeds
Thanks Andy, appreciate you changing the title. No sense in adding the strains, I will start others in about 2 weeks. Hoping to get a few people involved and any and all input is appreciated. I'm going to add pics as I go along.

From what I've just learned during this grow, with temps almost always over 100 F and up to 118 F lol, the plants will indeed grow. Unfortunately they grow extremely slowly and stunted. I also suspect yield has taken a huge reduction. So, 91 won't kill them, even as seedlings, but a little ac could prove worth its weight in herb hehe
