These are just some seeds I had gotten in my weed about a year or two ago I didn’t except much going into it but they actually pulled through pretty well, I went and got a tiny “budget” setup I had a small issue in the beginning causing them to grow at a much slower rate so I know it might be a bit of a small yield or whatnot but I started this grow on 11/20/21 and they’ve only grown to this size. So I thought I’d just flower them and start again. But this is my first flowering stage and I was just wondering how my plants look and my temps. I’m pretty confused on what the perfect temp and humidity level should be during flowering, this is currently there second day on the 12 on 12 off light cycle with the bloom setting on
    The tent size is 24”x24”x48” Indoor Grow Room
    With a 4” induct fan pulling in air in the bottom left
    A 4” induct fan pulling air out from the top at a bit of a faster speed creating negative pressure in the tent
    A small fan inside the fan near the humidifier clipped to the side
    1000w led grow light
    The last two plants were taken a few days before flowering the first two are from last night then there’s my current temps and humidity and a overview of the plants. Thx for the help :)

  2. Put them back on veg cycle (24-0 is fastest). Lower the light. Warm up by 10 degrees. Looks like cold roots = slow growing.
    Try putting them on 1 inch or more of Styrofoam to insulate from a cold floor. Get them up to 12 to 24 inches tall before flowering.

    Jan 3rd.
    Topped at the 5th node. Topped again at the twin 6th nodes.
    This should be big enough for my next setout cycle March 15th to put it outside to flower.
    Then it would flower until June 1st for harvest.

  3. Awesome appreciate it. I’ll get the styrofoam as soon as I can, lowered the light down, put it on a 24 hour cycle and turned it off flower
     
  4. Put your hand on the floor. Is it cold ?? Even a triple layer of Cardboard or 2xsomething chunk of wood will help limit a cold floor from sucking down the pot temps. At this time of year I have to fight for every bit of warmth I can get for my vegging plants.

  5. You should also fill those buckets up all the way every time. It will help with air circulation and give your roots more room.

  6. I just put my hand on the floor and it’s not like freezing, it’s a tiny bit cold to the touch but I have thermometer on the floor along with one on the plants and it’s only a 2 degree difference. Here where I live it’s currently 24° so I have a space heater in my room to try and stable the ambient temperature. Here’s currently what they look like with a bit better pictures

  7. Thank you, I honestly didn’t really know that, that’s my mistake I’ve never really had any experience with plants before this grow and kinda just put them in bigger pots as they needed or I seen they did

  8. Your first few grows are usually full of learned knowledge man. We all started somewhere and is why we are all on here, to learn and help other growers out. I know when I first started growing I made lots of mistakes, but I have been hooked on growing since. Looking good man.
