Blue Drama'tic / 2nd Coco Harvest

I have been quite stressed about all the new things even before I started. There are so many different things that could go wrong in a new environment and with an unfamiliar medium/setup. This week I had some major problems with heat. It was my equipment that needed upgrading. After one week I started thinking about connecting autopots with my brand new flexitank. To do that I separated Blue Dream from another strain. I had to split 12 trays under 2 400w HID lamps. That makes 6 trays under one light, which is perfect for connecting the pipes and placing them evenly. After placing the trays, installing the second light and switching it on, I begun to deal with the piping. The bad news here was that I did not get all the parts from the shop and I had to call it a night. Before I left I took my last glimpse inside the room and I noticed that the temperatures had already been rising to over +27C. Curious that I am (as much as stupid sometimes), I CLOSED THE ROOM WITH BOTH LIGHTS ON! It was +33C inside the room when I got back and after a while the lights switched off. I was reading everything on the subject I found to be useful until I passed out. MORNING IS WISER THAN EVENING Next day I confessed myself I have made a mistake by choosing new lights without cooling. I counted on the fact, that it gets really cold outside and the room where my growing space is, gets really cold too. So I looked up my cooltube, cleaned it, assembled and installed it. It worked perfectly and I got the the temperature back to +28/29C, which is still too hot for the weak young plants. Resizing the old - and making a new, bigger intake-valve did not have any effect whatsoever. Time for second confession: my exhaust fan is not enough for my new growing space. In the matter of a few hours I had 2 things on my shopping list (cooltube + exhaust fan) and the shops were already closed. Now I could see that some of the plants take it more serious than the others. The leaves were getting droopy and then I relized that I have forgot to water them while I was busy with the heat and I quickly made a light solution. What a mess! Finally, by the end of the next day I got everything under control. In 3 days I had to: -get 1 new cooltube -assamble 2 cooltubes and install them to a reflector that is not meant for cooltubes -get new exhaust fan thats enough for 6 m3 -get an Y joint for connecting the tubes to exhaust fan -get ventilation pipe -install the new fan -connect cooltubes to fan -make new and resize old fresh air valves -install and connect the autopot system LESSON LEARNED WELL Now for the last 3-4 days its always +25C again and most of the girls look lovely. Unfortunately heat or cold stress in the beginning of an autoflowering strains life might stunt it for good. My NL auto got cold when I left it outside for a cold night after a hot early summer day. It only grew about 35 cm and gave 20 grams dried herb.
