Yeah shouldn't be bad maybe by 2 degrees or so
what kinda soil you using check your ph at all?

 

[Autoz4lyfe]

About 60% FFOF and 40% Light Warrior, I pH my distilled gallons of water at about 6.4-6.5 and i check my runoff from the watering normally about 6.5-6.6, only about a .1 increase once it runs through the soil.

nice!

Whats good Autoz4lyfe,

First allow me to you to the community, glad to see your getting help. Your going to love BPN, Corey gives out MAJOR DISCOUNT to members... I use the Farmer's Pride Organics full line up, and I have loved it every single feed.

alright, i wanna do a transplant today there in darkr ight now i have a green cfl that i use to do work in the room i'm going to get there 4 gal buckets should i transplant while its in dark or wait for light need to know before 6 because i'm buying pots asap today.

You should always do transplants before lights out, never in the morning when lights are turning on. It is always better to do a transplant before sleepy time so that they have the lights out period to recover, it allows for less of a shock on them... you don't want to shock them to much, could pop out hermies if stressed to much...

Having a little issue with the humidity since i transplanted, I'm guessing because bigger pots more water more humidity, well I've been told anything over 60 for veg is bad, the temps are not unstable i stay around 72-75, but when lights are off is when i noticed the highest humidity at 62, any ideas people?

This RH is good for veg...

Germ, Seedling, or Clone: 90 - 100% RH
Vegetation: 40 - 60% RH
Flower: 20 - 40% RH

Thanks man for the words of advice, i actually spoke with Corey in a email he stated if i place BPN in my grow journal title he would give me a discount for the nutes, i need to order them asap seeing as how it takes 5 days to get here and there already on day 21, He stated i had to get a Moderator to change it to BPN or something along that line, anyway you could do that so i could order them asap? thanx in advance.

I am not a moderator, I am only 420 Support at the moment.

Whats good Autoz4lyfe,

watching your video update, I thought up a question for you...

Is that location where the thermometer is located the only spot where your testing the temps? are you testing at the top of the canopy? that is another prime location to check the temps... along with the temps of incoming air.

these are all important temps to consider as well brotha.

 

[Autoz4lyfe]

At the top on the canopy your referring to underneath the lights where the plants actually sit? Or higher above the grow bulb fixture?

The top of the plants

 

[Autoz4lyfe]

Nope it normally stays where it is now but i figure about a 3-5 degree increase underneath the lights so i try and keep the thermometer around 73-74.

Nice I'm curious to see how the t5 tubes treat you, I'm thinking myself of upgrading my hps myself but these Florida temps are fucking pesky 80-81 is average. So idk if I could go over a 250w but I want a 400w to have a perpetual grow of kosher kush haha

Yes, exactly, right on top of the canopy, you would be surprised on the temp difference, not to mention with the DIY wing extender trapping in the heat some more...

Just saying brotha... I have a DIY reflector on mine and it traps heat...
