Amazing stuff posted here - so much enjoying your success people.
Re temp and and humidity, my basement rig is running at 23C and 60 percent RH if I don't keep the dehumidifier running on the intake. So many people claim that is too humid in flowering, week 9 since sprouting now. If I turn it on I get 26C and 50% RH, but I noticed my daily cost is up to 9 quid a day with 400w hps, 100w led, 100w extractor, 220w DH etc. I don't like that at all.

Yeah, okay, DWC doesn't like that warmth, does it?

DWC is a nightmare in the summer. Some tips that could help you:
Set your lights to run through the night. Having your dark time during the daytime can save you some precious degrees.
Ice bottled/ packs. Make sure they’re clean before using them then reusing them
An oscillating fan around the buckets help.
Run hydro guard. The friendly bacteria in that can help if you. Do not use this if running liquid oxygen.

yeah thats great thanks my friend,, and i run my lights from 12 noon - 6am, so just trying to keep on top of things, but learned alot this wk, so temps dwn to 15c now outside, so can reel things back in now, and get on top of it, but got that little bit of exp now with root rot, so hopefull y will stay on top. and keep up what i was doing, but not sure about this pyscho myco ive been using, so just to see if this was contributing, so just put that on hold, running sterile system now, H202, so hopefully no lasting damage, so will see how goes as soon be ready to start flower, so need to get on top of this, so we will see how she progresses this wk, but still looking good and growing fast so no change on that, so will follow my data and see how goes, but learning so much each wk, an as long as I can keep adapting and resloving the issue then we might just make it, lol but thanks guys, your info as been amazing, cant beat getting it off you guys with your tried an tested methods, so thanks all ears, and willing to take on any advise, so any ones spots something just jump aboard
 
I've just finished bagging up the last few buds from the last grow. I ended up with 14.5z combined dry weight from the Jack Herer and Auto Extreme, each in 19litre(correction 16lites) self watering pots. I'm pleased with that result from 240W of light in a 2x4.

If I were to accommodate an additional pot in the same space how much of an effect would this have on the potential yield. I'm thinking I might gain the odd ounce with three plants, however the other two girls having less grow space, would be smaller in stature.

That's a cracking result, should keep you going for a while! :thumbsup:
 
Thanks, It should do, at least I'll not have to visit my chemist for a while :toke:
And that can only be a good thing...

I grow in 11 litre pots, does the larger volume add time? I'm also looking at self watering pots as I can't start another grow till mid August due to a holiday, would they keep a plant going for 2 weeks?

Looks like you’ve got it licked then mate. You say your ready to flower so I assume your doing photos? If so I’d run the lights from 6pm to 6am

Pleased? I’d be fucking creaming myself with that yield under 240w. Well done buddy
