High everyone, Im about to start some Kush n cheese and was wondering if my grow space is adequate.
I have a 4,1/2 x 3,1/2 x 6 foot space and im going to be using a 600w dual spectrum HPS.
I only have a 4.1/2 inch filter system but i have two fans on the filter out take and another 4.1/2 inch duct and fan bringing air in.
Im hoping this is enough space for 5 plants and that my air flow will be good enough.
any advice would be greatly appreciated, Thanks in advance.
 
i ran the light n extractor for a day and the highest was 24c but i am fitting a 4" intake fan. not sure of my night time temps yet but i imagine its gona be quite cool, probably around ten or twelve C. will this be ok do you think ?
thanks for your reply TaNg, appreciated :)
 
high again, are my temp parameters ok ?
At night its down to 14*c and during the day its up as high as 33*c, are these levels acceptable ?
 
Hi-dee-hi Buddy :)

33c is a little on the hot side - but not the end of the world. If you can drop it by 4-5c you'll be in about the right range :)
You could possibly achieve this by playing with your extraction, removing any bends in the ducting and allowing the outside of the growspace to be slightly cooler by cracking a window? There are more expensive ways to control the environment, but i'd try the free stuff first! :)

14c Is a bit cold for lights out (or certainly a big drop) - if you can get it closer to 20C when the lights are out. You could do this with a small tube heater on a timer for when your lights go out! :)
 
91f is way to high.Try and get it under85f at least.Lights out temp is also low.Try and stay around 65f.
 
thanks :)
I really appreciate your replies,
Can i please ask you ?
Supposing i was to struggle to get my parameters right and im sure i can make at least a small improvement but if i can't get it perfect could you please tell me what the consequences would be ?
slower growth maybe ?
higher risk of infection ?
Smaller yield ?
And thanks again, One love :)
 
Ok so i had loads of problems in the beginning, the gold label special mix had way too much nutes in it for an auto grow so they got over fed, gave them a massive flush but the problem only lessened.
they ended up going all the way through veg without any feeding (just water)
anyhoo im well into flower now and theyre on a mild dose of canna flores and full dose of canna boost, my PH run off is at 6.4 and my temps are perfect, 55 at night and 68 the highest during lights on.
im now showing signs of calcium deficiency with brown spots on my leaves, the only problem is its about a week before i can purchase some cal/mag,
Are there any alternatives i,e something household that i might be able to use now ?

Ps Honour me please with a quick reply and ill honour you with some juicy pic's DEAL ???? :)
