oh and not real confident with advance nutes. been reading ppm stuff and i think im too high. if i follow the instructions ppm sit at like 1600+ im reading in veg i should be at like 1000-1200 maybe less. am i accurate? i think i got everything else just on a slow start the first cpl weeks were harry i cracked the seeds to early and i think i stunted growth. plus my times are off the pre 98 bubba came up jul 6 the critical came up jun 25 afghan came up jun 3
 
had all wrong stuff. temp to high water temp to high no controll and lost my lady 4 weeks in flower.the pic was the last one til it hit 110f

too bad was looking good..110... did you think about opening the tent to get some fresh air in or buy a room air conditioner?....(I don't use a tent but if I did I'm sure it would get hot in there)
 
I didn't want to pay for the cost of ac. My tents whole setup costs like $40 In power that was my goal. Oh and was inside a very hot garage
 
bud head has done some amazing DWC grows... think he is the man to answer your questions High 5 Piggy Hug

Made a water chiller. Added an 8"ice box and completely insulated and sealed my tent. Temps stay below 78 water stays at 62 ish no higher than 64 no lower than 60
 
good luck nuggz :smokebuds:Dont be shy to PM for any help if you need it bud High 5
