How to raise soil temps
Puffdamagikchillumstarted grow question 5 years ago
I am having a problem keeping my soil warm in a 5 gal fabric pot inside grow tent. Temp inside tent is 72F and humidity is steady at 48-50% but the soil inside pot is 60F or lower sometimes. My heater sits next to the pot but does not heat the soil. Tent is 32x32x63

The led will not make it hot enough on it's own.. might not even the heater anymore.. I'd monitor it for a day :).. I hope this helps...

Consider shutting the extraction fan off. Especially if you have an Oscillating fan in the tent. Your grow tent will gain humidity and heat. Just turn the fan back on in a few weeks once the plant is more established..

Tent is sitting on carpet but when I raise the temperature of tent the humidity drops even more. Extraction fan is set on low. I am in Michigan and right now outside temps in high 20's and outside RH is 86%. since my pot is raised off of floor with drip tray underneath I filled drip tray with water to see if that helps. I dont want to waste money on nutes if the roots are too cold to uptake them?

The substrate will always be lower than the room temperature but the 12 degrees in such a small pot is an oddity.
Are you on concrete? Insulate the bottom, raise grow tent temp to 78.

Duda con agua y riegoCada cuanto debo regarlas en esta época? He pensado en hacer fertilizante casero 5% agua oxigenada, 25% agua de piel de cebolla y 75% agua Normal, he mirado registros y el agua del grifo de mi ciudad esta bien en cuanto a ph y ppm, quizás algo de destilada no estaria mal, si?

Why plants are growing differentlySame strain different growth rates and patterns. One plant is shorter and wider while the other plant is taller. Basically the same amount of leaves.
The shorter and wider plant was repotted a week sooner in cycle. Could that be the reason? Or genetics?

Help with root containment - How would you solve or battle this?The roots grow through the net bucket and a mesh net I use for containment. Micron size too big, roots grew through. The mesh bag was a 2nd attempt at root containment. 3rd attempt will be very fine micron mesh screen. What could be a good way to deal with this?

Roots white hairinessBenefic or malefic ?
-Root affected look whiter
-We don't use any organic nutrient, but black carpet used in our last soil-coco session.
H2O2 and/or water submersion look to "kill" it, but if it's a benefic "mold", we can let them alive

Question on feminized seed growthCan a feminized seed grown in a small pot 1gallon roughly be controlled in size by switching to a 12/12 light schedule ?! As I’m worried about it out growing it’s pot becoming root bound before it starts flowering and don’t want to transplant

Mold on roots??After having my ph problem "fixed" (plants are still turning lime), I wanted to check the second runoff, I lift up the pot, lo and behold, the roots have some "white" stuff around their tips, is this mold????
I can smear it on my finger, it leaves somewhat of a trail

early transplanti was reading grow questions about transplanting, and it seems i may have done it too early - they just sprouted the first node when i transplanted, and theyre small. theyre showing no signs of stress. if I f'ed them up, i'd see it today right? what are the downsides?

Adding soil to the new roots on stemHello everyone, after the night I noticed that there are a lot of new roots trying to grow from stem. I know this is ok, but I wonder can I add some soil on top of the existing to help develop these roots? Won't it cause stem rot? I want to fill the space in my pot

Thirsty look - exposed rootsMy plant has been looking thirsty but I know it isn't a water problem. Had another look today and saw some roots were poking through the substrate as I suppose every time I water I'm displacing it! I added some more Coco today, but was wondering if it could be anything else?
