So yesterday evening temp got up to 90 degrees. Didnt seem to affect the girls much. They still looked good.

This morning is the start of day #8. Everything is looking great. Gonna feed them some nutes today when i get off of work. Ill take some pics as well.

Hey 808...flushed her a few times today, Now I have her in a dark area of the grow room, Prob. leave her there for a couple of days. Then i'll hang her up for about a week, and see what I got from there.:p

Yeal, should be interesting to see if theres any visual changes after two days of darkness. I went ahead and pulled her becuase the top rain leafs where going yellow. I really pushed her awhile...The main cola was getting hard as a rock....I think it may have actually started two slow cook the tip after being 2'' from the t5s for 3 weeks now.

Anyway as far a taste is concerned, I want know for 18 months....But it should be Cured as fine as Fine Wine after 18 months in Mason Jars.:-P:-P

Day #9. Girls are good. Fed them some nutes yesterday. They seem to be liking it. Had some heat issues yesterday as well. Temp went up to 90 and humidity was at 72%. Added a couple fans and left the top of the tent unzipped. Its holding at 84 to 86 during the day. Humidity at 50%. Didnt want to add inline fan but if the heat situation gets worst i might go ahead and do it..

808killahz, you may want to add that inline fan. I have one connected to my 250 HPS and I still need to leave one side of my closet open. I am no expert by any means, but I consistently read and see on various vids (Jorge Cervantes for example) that the plants do better in temps from 72-78. Adding the inline to my closet sent my temps down from 82-84 to 76-78...right where I need to be. I am growing hydro, so I have the additional concern of the room temp affecting my water temp. I also read that at 92 photosynthesis stops.

Your girls are definitely looking good.

Here is my La Musa at Day 17 from seed. I put her on Bloom Nutes last night and she seems to have taken to them real well. (Pic taken last night)

Thanks raiderman.

Day#10. Temps are holding at 82-86. Gonna try and pick up a new inline this week. Summer is only gonna get hotter so it will definitely help. Humidity is at 50% consistently. Soil is still fairly moist since i watered on Fridays so ill probably not water for another day or two. No nute burn as of yet. Im gonna stay with 1/8 strength nutes for a couple more feedings then up it to a 1/4. See how it goes. Other than that its all good. Will post pics tonight.

808killahz, just to wet your appetite, here is an LA Diva freebie I grew out in a 2.5g coco hempy bucket with LED's....here she was at 68 days....yielded 2.5oz (not bad for an auto). Watch the nutes she's sensitive. This one hit 37" high and 30" across but I blame that on the hempy method (it rocks)....nice berry taste and some sativa in the mix making it a nice daytime smoke. I'd grow it again in a heartbeat.

The other thing I have read is that when temps are in that low to mid 80 range, that introducing some CO2 helps the plants deal with the higher temps. Just a thought if you didn't want to spend the money on the inline fan, maybe a C02 bag or something to that effect will help.

Also I want to clarify something I wrote above. I leave one side of my closet door open when I have the light on. During the dark cycle, I am able to close both sides of the closet without my temps rising, and I attribute this to the 4" inline fan I have taking hot air out of the closet.
