Indoor First indoor grow

[sergeant pepper]

Looks like you're off to a great start! As far as light cycle goes, if they're autos, it shouldn't matter. I've heard of guys experimenting with all kinds of cycles, even 12/12, although I think that would reduce the yield. Like you, I went with a 19/6 cycle, and my Think Different seems to be doing fine. I might be wrong, but I've read that co2 supplementation helps the plants deal better with high temps, so you may wanna look into that. My temps are usually in the low to mid 80's, and my plant seems to be doing fine. I use a co2 Boost Bucket. The Dutch Pro nutes seem to have worked well with my plant, so I think you will be more than satisfied with them

Thanks for the feedback dude,
Good to hear your think different are going well.
The room im using for the grow is essentially just a bedroom with the hot air getting blown into the rest of the house through the open bedroom door with a large fan.Not sure how well co2 will work that being the case but for sure will try to read up on that tonight.

Hey Sgt Pepper,

Good start, they still look nice and healthy..


Air circulation is important, especially if you are having temperature issues. You don't want to get into molds and frying your plants, so make sure you can get fresh air replacing the old stale air. You have extraction fans yes?


Hope to see you do well with these

Hiya eekman,
Thanks for stopping by and the feedback/good wishes.
As mentioned above its pretty much just an open room grow but even with the door left open and the fan running the temps are still high.
All the exterior windows etc to the grow room are sealed up so that no noise or light exists the house
Am thinking that it may be better to cull half of these plants so that I can also turn half the t5's off and reduce the heat.

Hey man, good luck with your first venture into indoor growing. Thats a lot of plants you got going. (at least to me anyways haha) Sounds like you got some good amount of work cut out for yuh.:smoke:

Hey NekoSempai,
Thanks for stopping by and the good wishes.Im qucikly coming to the idea that as you say its a lot of plants.
Some may well be taken out into the woods sometime soon.

If nothing else, put excess plants outside somewhere...

Hi thetreeman,

Yeah I think your right,If i cant get the heat down soon I will find some place in the local woods to go put them.I live out in the sticks so pretty sure I can find somewhere remote.

If you set up your co2 where it is blowing directly on the plant, it will make a difference. Some guys hang their co2 bags behind their fan, so the co2 is sucked in through the fan, and blown directly onto the plant. I have a Boost Bucket, which has a tube running from it. I put the tube I to the back of my fan, and the co2 blows out for the front of the fan onto my plant and it definitely helps
