yeah, have blue side down, when you put your plants out in the sun, are you not worried about the temps? even on a sunny day we would be lucky to get 18c?
never did them any harm , get a few blocks and put a pane of glass over them would help
scrog is all about timing , i think you keep scrogging to the first week of 12/12 then let her go , i would scrog that girl about 2 1/2 feet off the pot ?

I have noticed a bit more leaf curl in my Passion, Not a lot but enough for me to spend last night searching the web looking for an answer and there seems to be many, to hot, no air circulation, mg deficiency, to much nutes.... the list goes on. does anyone have any advice? I was thinking about flushing the plant and taking it from there, I haven't flushed before, can I cause any damage from the excessive amounts of water she will receive

my experience has been such that the curling was caused by heat. what are your temps like?

The highest the tent ever gets is about 26c which should be about right?

I think maybe a flush might be my best option, I will lift the scrog next, but a hole in the bottom of my tent as there is a drain directly under it and run 3 buckets of water through it.
Should I give the last bucket a dose of nutes at 1/2 strength like I have read in some posts?

Flushed the passion last night! thought I would be better doing it now before the scrog takes full effect. I cut a hole in the bottom of the tent so that the excess water can run straight into the shower drain! I also give her some nutes on the last flush at about 1/3 strength.
Shower rooms are perfect for growing humid, easy for watering a humid enough for my babies, there is also a toilet incase she needs Nitrogen...Paddy!
I have also moved one of the Cheese's into its final resting place.
By the way my passion is growing I'm going to have to put it into flower mode in about 10 days, which will mean the cheese will have to flower too. I think the plan of action is scrog the life of the Passion and let the Cheese grow though the hole I previously had for the fan.
I also moved the fan outside the tent and have it blowing through the side vent for more growing space.

if you can get you timer set at night so that the cheese will be getting the 12 hours in the tent and 6 in day light , a window or something in the day or even just another room with some light ?
