Update: Just to say that the G13 was finally cut and cured and is now ready to enjoy. We got 4oz from it in the end after it spent about 12 weeks under a 600W HPS. Lots to be learnt for next time but I'm certainly not unhappy with that yield. Definitely slightly affected by the cold but I think...

So everything still going well so far with the "600w" Viparspectra. Plants are healthy and growing well. I've topped, lst'd and slightly defoliated the non auto g13 and left the two auto flowers to their own devices minus the odd turn of the pot/moving of leaves. I bought a varispeed controller...

OK the cfl definitely helped keep it above 20 last night despite some cold temps outside. Was a very healthy 26 when I checked before lights off but likely going to decrease sharply now both the led and cfl are off. I think I'm going to need to either move to hps or get an oil heater in there...

Just checked on the plants and the coldest point reached during lights off was 11 degrees! I've now stuck a 200w cfl in there must for some heat so we'll see how it goes. Starting to think more drastic heating methods are required...

And yes, bud187 I have been running it that way. But turning the exhaust off during and slightly before lights off is a great idea, thank you!

Thanks for the reply! I'm not actually planning to run the lights on 12/12 until after I harvest the autos. They have a 1 week headstart on the g13 fem which I'm planning to veg and train until then. Although if I get a new hps as well I can move them about. Do you have a 600w hps in a 0.9*0.9...

Hi all! I'm currently growing 2 autos and one normal fem g13 in a 90x90x185 secret jardin dr90. It's my first indoor grow for years and first using a tent rather than a converted wardrobe so I'm actually finding myself over ventilated! I'm using a Viparspectra 600W LEDS (actual draw around...
