Well start week 5 and it looks bad! I found a light leak in my tent and it’s thrown my plants to seed! Not happy the tent had a light leak in the zipper I found! ! It was looking to be a bumper harvest but has turned out for the worst! I’ve harvested what I could to try have something to smoke but it’s a bloody shame! Sorry to tell u the bad news guys! Thanks to everyone for their great comments it’s a bloody shame for u all! Thumbs up to mars hydro for the light though! They some big buds already! Not happy though! 😭😭😭
G'day mate I'll try again! Nice to see a fellow Australian on here firstly nice grow your girls look good 👍 about your question regarding mars hydro fc6500 well I to upgraded from a 600watt MH/hps due to heat & running costs as you know how hot our summers are. I run FC-E 4800 which I average a pound per grow with 4 plants ,great lights, easily pull a gram+ per watt. The FC 6500 actually produces 730watts not 650 I would say you would have no problem pulling a pound & a half! Of top quality ganja . Produces very frosty buds. I've run mine as low as 15 cm of the top of the canopy in the past but usually around 30cm above. I mount my driver outside of the tent to reduce temps even more so haven't had any problems with it burning plants. I'll start following you & feel free to reach out to me if you have any questions I don't claim to be a master grower but have more growing experience than the apprentice title suggests. Have a number of quiet successful harvest's of top quality & sizable harvest's.drop by & check my grows out some Time. Keep up the good grows gromie.nice plants 👍
@BudBoutique,cheers for comment bro! Nice to see you check in on me every now and then! Thanku I am now following u! Any advice would be greatly appreciated!
What's going on grow diaries? Just posted a comment on this growers grow only for you to show 1 sentence & leave all my nice comments & review of the mars hydro FC series out. Also can't read half the diaries on here any more as There's no translation any more!!
Damn👎🤞 that really sux bro! I'm just wondering from a previous comment you made about heat after air - con goes off(33°c) going up. Maybe it could be a combination of both. The heat allready stressing plants & added light leak. To help with these factors in our climate in OZ I run my LIGHTS ON time at 6.pm until 6.am for flowering (12hrs) & 6pm untill 12noon (18hrs). It does work to reduce heat in our summers!!! My temps also rise to around 31°c to 32°c, right after light's on. I run my 6" exhaust system on full 24/7.
I have a dedicated grow room (spare room) with black out curtains that house's my veg & flower tent & propagation area, I run 2 into 1 ducting system, so both veg & flower tent ducting merge just before they exit into 1 through an air con exit piece. The block out curtains work to completely block out ANY light day or night
@HIAZ_urbanbudfarmer, yeh I believe u may be right mate! The combination of both temp rise and light leak wouldn’t have done any justice! Thanks for ur comment bro much appreciated for the advice🤙🤙🤙
@Herbie101, hey bro Thanku for ur comments! Just wondering if u can help?? My flower tent temps got upto 33 degrees for about an hour after aircon cut out! Will this stress my plants enough to send them to hemaphrodites?? Please help bro? The normal temperature of tent is 28 degrees! They showed no sign of heat stress!
