Hey friend congratulations on getting into growing cannabis. Nice looking clean tent setup, Would it be alright with you if I offered some advice to help you out? So cannabis plants love heat and humidity. In veg & early flower we can get more vigorous growth and a bigger plant quicker with warmer temps. 79-84 MAX is good for veg and early-stage flower with lights on and we want no more than 9 degrees less with lights off or our plants will stretch if we allow for more than that.
Once we enter flower by week 2-3 we want to taper our temps with lights on down to around 77-79 MAX. If we grow our buds out at high temps they will be big but airy and prone to fox tailing and will never develop as much cake as buds grown at lower temps. Once our plants finish growing vertically, With autoflowers we have to watch for it but in photoperiods, it is usually weeks 4-6 of flower, We want to now at this point open up our temp gap to beyond more than 10 degrees less with lights off. I noticed you kept your temp gap tight all the way through, But if we time this right and widen the gap each passing week until harvest we send extra energy into the plants budding process and resin production. It really helps get us the best finish possible.
Check out VPD, Vapor pressure deficit and how it relates to growing cannabis. All new growers should study this and learn how to use a VPD chart, Grab yourself a PAR meter & thermal laser temp gun if you do not have them already. They will really help you read your plants needs and grow to them. A bluelab pulse is a great tool as well.
