thctom Posted February 16, 2012 Author Share Posted February 16, 2012 Tried but lead on fan is too short. Temps steady at 28.3 think shoul be ok. Yeah I know was thinking of getting a budget 4" fan and cf set. Cause my tent only has 4" holes but 3 of them so could have two 4" cf sets and one 4" intake. Plant seem to be loving the new light Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thctom Posted February 17, 2012 Author Share Posted February 17, 2012 Got my clip on fan today but it not an oscillating fan grr. Come 5 when lights come on I will fit it. I know yesterday I said I would wait 3-4 day before potting up but I've decided I'll do it once lights go back on. So will post another update later. Light distance from lamp (400w dual spectrum) 24" Light on temp high 28.8 low 27.4 Light off temp High 23.4 Low 20.8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AstroNut Posted February 18, 2012 Share Posted February 18, 2012 I've been siting here for 18 hours waiting for these pictures Get that new fan of yours onto the bulb mate, that will lower the temps and also allow you to bring the light down a little imo anyway. I think you made the right choice potting up Tom, your plants will flourish in new surroundings and more lumens. will look forward to the pics ;o) Hope all went well mate AstroNut 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hiphip Posted February 18, 2012 Share Posted February 18, 2012 Tom, why are your pots half full mucker? Cheers 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thctom Posted February 18, 2012 Author Share Posted February 18, 2012 (edited) 50l in 6 11l pots. doh! so 11l pots with like 8l of soil in each Edited February 18, 2012 by thctom Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hiphip Posted February 18, 2012 Share Posted February 18, 2012 Get some more then mate. If you have 11 L pots then you should have 11 L of coco. Do it quickly or they "MAY" suffer. You are currently using 8 L so your final yield will be what you would get from an 8 L pot. Your yield will increase if your pots are full. Do a little experiment mate. Fill one of them up to the top and notice the difference. Try to get it sorted mate, sooner rather than later. Other than that it all seems to be OK. All the best.

thctom Posted February 18, 2012 Author Share Posted February 18, 2012 most people use 6.5l pots so thought 8l would be enough as they are autos Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hiphip Posted February 18, 2012 Share Posted February 18, 2012 Good answer my friend. Leave 'em then. It is a little bugbear of mine see. Cheers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thctom Posted February 18, 2012 Author Share Posted February 18, 2012 Just noticed on my black jack plant it has an even amount of fingers on some of the leafs is this normal? all others have an odd amount. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hiphip Posted February 18, 2012 Share Posted February 18, 2012 Just noticed on my black jack plant it has an even amount of fingers on some of the leafs is this normal? all others have an odd amount. It is because they are in a half full pot. Cheers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thctom Posted February 18, 2012 Author Share Posted February 18, 2012 They had that when they where in a full pot :s Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AstroNut Posted February 18, 2012 Share Posted February 18, 2012 I'm with Hip on that mate...but maybe just fill 3 up and have 3 half full and see if there is much difference?? I would add tho with autos and their short life span they don't have the time to fill out 11l pots and that's the main reason why most auto growers use 6.5l pots. Other than that I think your plants are looking great mate and you will be shocked and delighted with how much they will grow in the next 10 days. I'm enjoying your grow mate, so keep it up Astro Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
