Thank you very much. I thought the lower humidity during flowering was the best but it seems we spot the trouble!

Thank you very much. I thought the lower humidity during flowering was the best but it seems we spot the trouble!
I thought so too, then I started hanging around members like Penny who know how to grow healhty plants, and I quickly found out that lower humidity during flower is really an old wives tale.
It's imperative though you have good air circulation, and another good reason to defol properly. You're gonna rock your next grow with that extra bit of knowledge now!
I run a little lower humidity in late Flower especially if you have really dense buds.

I don't have humidifier so it may be hard to maintain higher RH but I ll figure it out. If I manage to feed in a clever way things should already be better. I m not sure about growing during summer. Last time it made AC mandatory and unfortunately raised electric bill

Do you have summer coming in your country as well? I m not sure about growing or not. I ve already ordered two fastbuds green crack auto. This will allow me not to wonder about light schedule and working at night in the room the grow space is in. The downside is that it would need longer AC working as autos require more than 12 hours of light to produce well.....
Ya electricity rates suck... I have to plan better for next summer. I'll have two outside this season and four already on the go now, which I wont be able to put outside. It shuold have been none inside and the max allowed here outside, which is four.
Yea grow your 2 green crack autos outside.
Did those LED's generate that much heat? Your plants will thrive well at 80-85 if you have the RH correct. Run an 18-6 for the autos, the min recommended.
Low 80's is doable
Krip mentioned in his sponsor thread(KIND LED) that the manufacturer stated photosynthesis was optimal at around 84F, so I've been going back and forth from 80-83, the odd time going to 84. But the RH I am able to get around 65% which is spot on. It sure does feel tropical and the plants have reacted well.
I've had my other grows as high as 82 but never had the RH understanding I do now.

I have humidifiers and still struggle keeping it high. A little better as it has warmed up outside. But still low for the little ones I have going right now

I ll add water in the reserve pots to raise the RH a bit. Regarding the autos outdoor they won't have enough direct sunlight (no more than 7 hours of direct sunlight). Last summer was very hot with Temps around 86F inside. So even if the leds don't generate much heat it s still a lot to grow well without AC

I have a RH checker at bottom of my pots which shows around 60% RH. At the top where the fan spins it s around 35%. So I think overall my RH is good. I just saw that this morning as I hadn't checked the one at the bottom for a while. I think my small buds are because of terpinator. I had read on different forums people reporting small buds. I m sure people on this forum that get huge buds on small plants don't use it. My next run will be without it for sure
That’s interesting, I never paid any attention.

Thanks family! I ll maybe give her 24 hours dark tomorrow then harvest on Wednesday or maybe Thursday if I m patient. I would have loved bigger colas but it s fine she s ready and fine so it s the most important! Next run will be without terpinator cause I believe it prevent buds from growing big. I ll see how it goes. I put 2 seeds that were left 48 hours in a cup of water in dark place. They didn't seem to develop the first root a lot so I ll see.... Green crack auto by fastbuds. It s been a long time since my last tried with autos. It was during my first grow. I don't rely much on this grow as it s gonna be summer soon and may get hot. I ll see as time goes by. I ll update with harvest pictures when it s done
Yep we'll need a smoke report!
Hey @flashmp3 - just got caught up on your journal. Rather late than never 
Nice setup and awesome plants man! Going to be some beautiful nugs
Monster Profit has peaked my interest.. can't complain about 22% thc with high yields. How'd the harvest go? Looking forward to your harvest and smoke report after some curing
I'll be around for the next journal! Happy growing
