It's been somewhat of a busy week.
Temeperatures have risen a lot.
Since July 1st, I've been shutting the lights off from 2PM to 6PM when the day is hottest.
Never letting the temp rise above 29C.
Fan on 24 hours.
No sign of sex either way yet but they seem to be prospering.
The white and green pot plants are 14" high. The other 3 plants in brown pots are 12" high.
Watering 300ml each on the 3rd day meaning 2 days without, next day drink.
I find that watering them this way, meaning less water but more frequent makes them very happy.
I dont want water draining off the bottom of the pots at any point. Not now anyway.
The heat is the main issue right now but I am managing it.
The light is usually at 20" above tallest canopy @100% power.
The reason I have 4 plants on top of a supermarket bread tray and another on top of a oven lasagna tray is to make their height as even as I can.
Other than this, with a Mars Hydro light and Happy Frog soil, there is really not much to worry about.
Like I said on a previous post, I let them be but I do talk to them often XD.
Any thoughts or advice are greatly appreciated.

Really good blog. I talk to my girls all the time, when I'm feeding etc, and they have their own radio too that's on all the time the lights are, happy days :smoking:

Your doing great..... They look killer.... Leaving light off during hottest part of day is way to go.... I run 18/6 12pm to 6pm is lights out....I turn my portable ac unit off at that time too.... So when lights are out it stays at same temp when lights are on.... 72-76°f..... Humidity 48-50%rh is what I got it set at in my flower tent.... My veg tent is same temp just higher humidity.... 60°-65%rh.... I got 3 fans to each tent.... All monkey tent fans and they oscillate.... Well 5 are and one fan I keep outside the veg tent a blow air in the vent for fresh air and push cool air in there.... I got both of my driver's out of my veg tent to.... If I didn't it would be 85°f.... Since I have 2 lights in there..... The ppfd is 300 in veg and a DLi of 35-40 in my flower tent........ Hey you should download the photone app it's a grow light par meter app.... And if you know the par map of your light you can calibrate it so it's accurate to your light..... Something to look into... That's what I did so I know I'm not over loading my plant with light.... Keep it up they look real good..... Check out big homie switch guys.... He doing his thing...... Cheers bud!!!!! :d5:
