I keep them watered daily and with an over flow for them to drink when ready. I've just started adding calcium/magnesium to the nutes I've been giving them. 4 weeks of flowering now. It seems the calcium really hepled, they look so healthy now. I thought the heat would have killed them by now. They don't seem to mind being watered everyday and the heat.Will see what happens.

You must be in veg. In flower you will be killing the plants or at the very least they will just wilt and shut down. Even with CO2 supplementation you will not have success at 100+ degrees.. If by chance you get a plant that can survive, don't be a fool and make that exception your new rule..

I think I just didn't read it that well if I missed that.. Still though, I can't imagine a plant in flowering thriving in that. At 90 degrees production plants are stressed. 96 degrees they usually stop production in order to try and do nothing but try and cool themselves. At 100 degrees most strains are just shutdown and wilting. Some Equitorial Sativas can probably hold up longer than most but I don't think any strain can take sustained 100 degree plus temps and still do well. Maybe you can get it to survive but unless everything we think we know and understand about the Cannabis plants botany and tolerable conditions are wrong, I don't think you can expect this to end well. But I really would love to see some pictures...

My first grow was in conditions like that, did fine, better than fine. was in hydro too, res temps were upper 80s . I come from a place where it gets to 110 f outside, weed there reaches 15 foot tall, tell me they quit growing at 85 f.

They are six weeks now and temps have come down to 80-85 out. They are still beautiful and strong. Sorry can't do pics, too many people get on this computer. Thanks for the input!
