Gr3g0r^ Posted July 21, 2003 Share Posted July 21, 2003 Hi everyone! Im completely new at growing weed and been growing a plant for awhile in a window and then converted my wardrobe to the growroom! At the moment im suffering with 4 compact fluros but its quite small and compact! Ive got a fan blowing in cool air but the temperature can go as high as 32oC, which doesnt seem to affect the plant that much but i know its too high. Just wondering if anyone knows any easy and cheap things i can do to get the temperature down??? Another thing is that my plant has grown quite tall but isnt that bushy! Is this just due to lack of light? I am currently saving for some HPS lighting 250W so will that make is better??? Would it be worth trimming it at the top?? All help is wanted any tips and advice will be appreciated!! Photos of my gorwroom and plant will be shortly posted! as i would like some ideas of wot strain my plant is! any thanks alot Greg!

Sal Posted July 21, 2003 Share Posted July 21, 2003 Hi there If your thinking of getting a 250w you need some extraction m8 as they give of a bit of heat. If your budget allows you could get an rvk 100 at eighty quid the hps will make a big difference to your plant Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sal Posted July 22, 2003 Share Posted July 22, 2003 I got the same kit but i havent used the nft yet going with soil for the mo. You want to think about getting a ph and a cf pen also a water heater if your going hydro but at the risk of repeating myself i would make sure your enviroment is right before you do any planting Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
