Camper2016's First Grow - Candy Cane Auto

Well....I have the lights set on 100% but have the ballast set about 40" inches above the girls...now with the proper venting I can lower the ballast but I think there's plenty of light given the area the plants are in...read somewhere on this site if you adjust the light intensity too low with HPS it alters the spectrum affecting the plant's growth?? I'm sticking with that...if it's bunk let me know...
 
As far as the potting soil I think I start with too many nutes and its just taking time to flush out,,,,I think having the temps right will make a big difference...we'll see:thumb:
 
I have lowered the ballast down to 2ft - 2.5ft above the plants....temp still hanging around 90f but I think much of that is residual build up.......I think we'll have a better reading tomorrow
 
more pics...day 26

They are looking happy for ya despite the higher temps. Just will take a bit of time for them to recover. :passitleft:
 
Good....thanks for the saying so...hopefully the temps will be ok...got up 89f and I just turned off lights for the afternoon...will turn on again at 8pm....humidity is higher too

normally, as temps drops, humidity rises and visa versa.

SCIENCE! :woohoo:

Camper you'll be a master grower in no time. You'll get it dialed in young jedi
 
Good job camper! Those temps should work out much better.

last reading had 90f temp and 51% humid.....temps are ranging in the 88 - 90f area...humid between 45 - 55%.......seeing some changes in all the girls though I think I might be losing one...I last watered Sun/Mon midnight. Plan to water Sat or Sun but will lift and see but that would be 7 days without...just writing thoughts down what do you think...??
 
Pics? Specifically the one you think may be dying. I'd say you should probably water. Good luck bringing her back! They're resilient little buggers....
