Heat tolerant autos

[AutoGanic]

I grow indoors and struggle with high temps in the warmer months.

So...

I'm looking for advice on auto strains that can handle the heat please.

Awesome forum BTW:smoking:

Not sure about the strains that would be heat tolerant (I would think DP's AutoUltimate would do as it is really robust) but if you want to help your plants resist heat better, I hear that giving them kelp helps them to resist stress, including from heat. And ofcourse having CO2 to the growspace and keeping the humidity down.

Good luck!

Get CO2, air conditioner or more efficient lights.

I was having the same issues but I bought two cobs. The cheap light I have runs way too hot

I just set the cobshop lights up and no noise and I put thermometer in there to see what temp I get. I will be back to report it give me a few mins. Before the light change it was running from 82-87F and my room gets the hottest in the house.

Look at the difference ! Every morning when the lights come on it hits high 80s and I have to open tent to vent. I have tent closed and this is the temp after running for a few mins. ( about 15 mins )

Beautiful number on the temps! Thats about the same I got my Telos -garden dialed in now. Very good!

Thanks for the replies, I only use a single 400w HID for my weed need so don't want to spend big bucks on new equipment that wont be needed most of the time.

I've grown equatorial strains (photos) with success so I'll have a look for something similar x ruderalis. I did well with a Nevilles's Haze but it was a nightmare to tame in a small space when the stretch started.

I have good extraction for the space size so I'll also have a look at air cooled reflectors too.
