Indoor Simple question about temp

[wileywilly53]

I have read all over and I probably missed it, but what temps should I be targeting for a single plant in soil in a 32x32x62 tent. also I purchased this light. Hydrofarm FLCDG125D 125-Watt Compact Fluorescent Grow Light System with Dew Guard. It seems like from what I read I might need more, so I want to ask, is this ok for the very first experiment. again I will only have one plant (Northern Light from nirvana) I am ordering a 4in fan and carbon filter tonight. to help with these temps and humidity in the photo. Suggestions always welcome. I posted simular question in tent forum but no reply yet.

I had a low of 77 last night and a high of 88 today. I reset gauge to dbl check. hoping the filter and fan will lower these ?

I try and keep 78f-80f in my room lights on and temps drop 10 degress with lights out.

I have a light like that ...once u get the fan and get some ventilation going I think u can get it a good bit lower ....i had a way bigger tent with more lights and I could hold 82 pretty regular ...
Good luck bro you picked the right place to grow

Thanks a million Swampman and phoenix rising. I went ahead and turned light off yesterday and when I got home a lil while ago I checked and it is 73 with humidity at 52 no lights and in the dark for about 18 hrs. checked ace hardware they had no in line fans, wife is looking at lowes now. If lowes don't have them I guess I will order on line. the Phat filters have come recommended on this site but I get mixed reviews on the fan itself so I will just take a guess. but going to get around 150cfm my tent is only around 53cf if I calculated correct.
PS. Swampman I work in La. usually once a month. do you happen to know where I mean when I say I am from L A

Nice setup. MJ Plants can handle higher and lower temps. But the fluctuation should be kept minimized as possible.

I think Phat filters are really good. Please keep in mind that the filters cfm should be higher then the fans. Im using one with a TD silent fan. They are really quiet and stable. http://www.solerpalau-usa.com/

Happy growing

Everyone has their own exact number preference, but as long as you don't hold over 85F for long periods you should be golden. Even then and depending on the strain, it may still thrive just fine. In my experience it seems like 80F is optimum. And I see that used a lot. When you get your fan going I bet you'll be perfect because you're just a few degrees too warm at 88F. Good luck. :thumbs:

Sweet 80 degrees sounds obtainable. the fan/filter was ordered and I expext it end of the week maybe weekend, BUT now another issue. My girls arrived today YIPPEE KYAAA so how do I keep the seedds for a few days. just keep them in what they arrived in ?

 

[The Squid]

What are they in? Should be fine. Cool, dark, dry spot. Long term would be tupperware in the fridge, but you've only got until you're setup. No worries.

 

[wileywilly53]

They r in itty bitty bubbles individually packed in a row of 5, Yea I hope no more than 4 or 5 days max. So I can put them in my drawer in bedroom huh ? I am so friggon stoked

 

[The Squid]

Yup. That would be just fine man. I am stoked for you! I love the feeling.
