are raised off the floor using some old block pavers under the saucers.

 

insulation would be better mate, 'stone' like pavers will suck the warmth away

Yeah, i will have to figure out a way to check it, as i said some of my babies are starting to show little brown spots amd purple stems, i need to get this sorted.

 

I have a load of 1L pots, i could use these instead of the concrete blocks to lift the saucers off the ground.

 

Thx again for you help, its appreciated

you really need to get those pots warm mate, just raising them will do little tbh

True, the quickest way i can think of is to have the 4 hours of darkness in the early evenings, when the heating is on.

Currently light off is from 2am to 6am, when the heating is off

Early evening temps are usually 25 to 29.C

looks like you will be dealing with this for a while mate, i know times are tough, but unless you get them at a stable temp you'll have issues this time of year. the above temps won't even heat the pots up to a decent temp before the lights go out again.

Thought i would update this with a more recent pic.

Despite the problems, the buds seem to be swelling nicely

looking good mate, just keep a close eye out for bud rot with fluctuating temps
