I hear you Dude, thing is, I can-but don't want to spend any more money on tents, equipment, etc. I share my house and stealth is priority. I have a garage, but going in there every day carrying things in and out (even just water etc) will raise suspicion or I would have made my life a whole lot easier at the start and bought a tent with HPS and grown photo. I just can't do that unfortunately. My cab does work well, it's just getting a little warm in there, I can leave the door slightly open to let some heat out but of course, I'm also releasing the sweet sticky Mango smell too! I was looking at LED lighting today, maybe that would bring the temps down a few degrees in there. Don't get me wrong, it doesn't get into the 90's in there but it's still a little warm for my liking.
Does anyone have any experience going from CFL to LED? I can get a 400w Vipar led for a good price, and from the spec I would imagine that it would bring down the temps by at least 5 degrees. I need to look into that in more detail but any advice appreciated.
Ok so quick update on the plants, Sugar Mango is so close, I haven't watered in over a week to help her dry out, trichs are around 70/30 cloudy/amber. A day or two until chop I think....first real harvest! Wooooohoooo.
The Auto Assassin was getting too tall, almost touching the light so I had no choice. I tried to bend the main stem near the top and yep, you guessed it she snapped. I wasn't all that bothered, because she was going to hit the light anyway, I should have done some LST weeks ago. So I put some tape round the break, took a look this morning and I shit you not, she is bending towards the light again! Even with some of her stem snapped she is STILL growing! Hehe-these are persistent plants! But I'm sure the height problem is fixed now! I'm interested to see what happens.
White Widow is just sat veggin' happily at the back there. That is where she will stay for now!
