I pulled the girls over to get light into the under growth but havent topped them yet. Hope i can get a few branches going on Evie and Kathy for seeds. Not sure i want to reproduce the pineapple chunk, its probably the touchiest strain ive tried so far. Im sure its going to be sticky bud just not sure its worth the headaches. The skunk is what it is.

PW what is that white thing sitting on plant one in your pics a hygrometer?
 
I topped off all 4 buckets and added 1ml of Z7 to each. The girls are feeding and drinking a lot. Ph is holding steady so alls good. I need to change nutes tmro. Last 4 days the ppm's have dropped from 340 to 280. Looks like i need to increase ppm a bit. Ill post pics tmro.
 
Think I'd drink a lot...running a marathon in that heat.lol
Good job stabilizing pH. Don't want to and fluctuations probs to the equation. CO2? Temps hitting 90's?
Again, nice work. Now post the pics

Air temps are in the low 80's now with res temps in the mid 70's. Appears as though the z7 and voodoo juice are doing their jobs. The AN base nutes are keeping ph stable. I just have to get used to seeing somewhat higher ph lvls with ph perfect nutes.
 
I wasnt going to try co2 this soon but it should help the battle with higher temps once flowering starts around the beginning of june.

High temps is what was pushing me towards using it as well. But the weather cooled down and I decided to just buy a window air conditioner for the bedroom that the grow tent is in. I am pretty sure that will do everything I need with my temp. If it doesn't, then I am back at the CO2 option.
 
I had purchased these Co2 pads when I was battling heat. May add them to this next grow too, since the closet doesnt have much fresh air until I get home and open it up. Is too much Co2 bad? Lol

I read its best in a sealed room/tent, where the Co2 is pumped back in. Not sure well how it works with a non sealed room/tent. I assume the Co2 would be slightly wasted if the air is being exhausted. With that being said, I never shut off my exhaust fan when I added it. Plus, I shutdown the grow 2 weeks after, so didn't get to see results.
