I'll try it over the light when I get home and see what increase in temps I can get. Thanks for the whole heat mat idea!The idea is to just warm the air with that mat, so you would need two if there's also one under the seedlings-
Blowing the heat down from the light/driver should work just as well, or better- I just don't have room for a fan up there...
I actually have the exhaust off and the tent sealed at this point. As they get bigger I'll figure out when to get the exhaust (intake) fan going. I use positive pressure from the top to suck warmer air in and push it out the bottom flaps.I also turn the exhaust way down during lights out, so it sucks the heat out a little slower...this will also raise the temp 4 or 5 degrees in there..
I have a heat mat and thermostat for seedlings and clones that sits on the desk in my home office. I find it doesn't work all that well to evenly heat solo cups given the difference in height from bottom to top though. For a single cup it's helpful to stand it on end and make a circle out of it for a makeshift sauna though.I had to read back to see what I missed, and I can't find it! If you have a heat mat, why can't you use it under? Add a towel to soften the heat it needed?
My TWa came in at 94 days but I believe is supposed to be shorter than that. I think I've asked Justin what he's found but I can't recall what he said now.I don't recall TWa finishing fast? I suppose training will slow things down, but that much veg for the PC? Is your tent big enough to flower her after that?
The tent is 2x4x6 and I've never vegged a photoperiod plant in there before. I was planning on topping and training like I do outside, but possibly not giving it as much light as the auto will get. Maybe some window screen to cut the lux on that side of the Mars bar.As I sit here and Medicate... I realized i probably should have asked how long TWa flowers, and ask the size of your tent, instead of typing all that!
Lay it on me MedSci!If you want assistance in slowing down veg growth, I have suggestions.
