Hey Guys, glad to be part of the community. This is day 8 of my first grow and I noticed my leaves "tacoing," just wanted a proper diagnosis of heat stress.
This a hydroponic grow, 98% perlite, 2% potting soil to sprout the seed (excess soil removed)
Indoors, two 23 watt cfls
Originally 2 inches away (Which was ok at first) --- Now about 4.5ish inches away from the top
The strain I am using is Auto Widow
I was originally watering every 2 days, but now a quick soak (half a poland spring bottle) in the morning, and then half a gallon with nutes when I come home from work. (4:30ish-5) (EveryDay last couple of days)
Using general hydroponics (half strength)
Temps currently in my room 84 degrees -- cooling after a 91 degree day - about 69% humidity
1 gallon pot
On my window sill to receive a cross breeze (if any) in my apartment
Other info -- Been over 90 degrees in the tristate area, expected to be like this for another week
I tilted the plant a little in one of the pics so you can see it from an angle
I wanted to know the next course of action...obviously keep the plant cool (no A/C)
Fan would bring attention to someone I'd rather not want to know I'm growing...This a ghetto apartment grow
Main Concern...I have heat stress...worried about future hermie
Opinions? And Thank you again guys!
