And I eventually purchased a thermometer..........
I looks like the room has been maintaining around the 25 deg c during the day a16/17 at night. Although I havent been able to tell the temp it feels constant.
The next thing I need is to understand my humidity.
I also need to start thinking about a heater for the room. It gets cold here so I night see if I can get a small oil heater just in case! The seasons are a changing!

they have been in veg since under the twin groflo fluro light. This is really holding them up and the new Mars II should pick things up, I really hope it turns up next week, these plants need it. Throughout last week I was able to get the girls out in the natural light on three occassions and the new growth was incredible.

Your right and it would help me. Melbourne is a lovely place to live, the only issue is its on the ass end of the world. As previously, here we have 4 seasons in one day. It can drop 15C in a matter of hours. I went to work at 5am this morning and it was 11C, we got to a big 25C today and are expecting serve rain and 95km winds!
Now if I lived in Brisbane or Sydney that would be a different story
I have just added 1 cap full of vinegar and it brought the ph down to 6 - 6.5. Now I just need someone to let me know if this is ok to feed the girls, what will the vinegar do?
At the concentrations we are talking of here there is no detrimental effect from vinegar. You'll probably find that there is also next to no beneficial effect as the vinegar has very limited buffering capabilities. You will soon find the pH creeping up again.
Since you are growing in soil, I would suggest you just water with untreated water and then measure the pH of the runoff. chances are that if you have enough peat in your soil the pH will be just fine as peat will lower pH and has excellent buffering capability.
If the runoff pH is too high, add a peat top dressing (if you don't want to work it into the soil).
With most peat/compost soils with high organic content (organic as in decomposing plant matter, not organic as in non chemical fertilizer) you really should have no need to worry about water pH.
If you are using, or suspect you may be using pH sensitive nutrients, try diluting a little in untreated water wait a few hours, then inspect to see of any precipitate has formed. If so, you may need to adjust water pH or get some other nutrients with a more forgiving formulation.
