May as well just add a 600 instead of a space heater. Heat with the benefit of added light = WIN :biggrin:.
Great minds think alike , but yas gotta handle lights off temps to minimum within a 10 degree variable for consistent returns and less for dialed results......so.......

Still gotta have the heaters in place as necessary........after all......environment`s "everything" Bro........Make it happen......get necessary equipment as budget provides......

Shit`ll grow in damn near all conditions , but when everything`s right it`s amazing whatchas can do with a dialed monocropped room......

Good luck.......DHF.......:ying:......

Going to get some spray foam insulation to cover up any cracks so the lung room can easily be controlled. I feel I rocked the ECSD pretty well this round despite having one runt that suffered from underwatering in week 6 of flower. Should still hit close too an elbow though but I don't see 1.25-1.5# being out of reach next round as long as I keep things nice and dialed in...

Haters be on my dick hard lately with the neg reps! Literally every post... Should spend more time on there grow than internet beefin' haha. Whatever... Sour D's coming down tomorrow... Will report back with pics. Got temps within 10 degrees at the moment without the space heater. Just venting back into the lung room to keep the other tent warmer at night.

I agree with mister D too that if you need some heat throw in some more lights. If your worried about keeping the power bill down I have an idea. I found some lumateck double 600's. Single balasts powers 2 600 hoods and uses less than 3 amps w 240v. Just a thought.

It wont keep the bill down tho my dudee, you get charged by the amount of wattage your pulling now amperage. Running lower amperage will allow you too run more equipment on a given circuit.

Right, but why add an intermittent 1500w heater when u could just add 600w for 12 hours a day. An extra 600w won't add all that much more than the heater.

Tyga - If the power bill just can't go up any more, then your next best solution is propane. Grab a co2 burner or propane heater designed for use indoors and call it a day. I used one of my burners for heat last winter. Just plugged it into a thermostatically controled outlet (30 bucks), and set the desired temp.

Heres a shot of the Pre98xNL5Haze tent.... some serious killer pheno's to be had in this strain! Im almost 100% positive that the leaf curl shown has to do with the strain because after checking out a few shots of TBGardens a few of his plants show the same trait... Plus the leaves are extremely healthy which leads me to believe its not a problem..
This girls are about 18 days in...
Leaf curl? #9?

I'd be more inclined to believe your nitrogen levels are too high. Sativas/sativa heavy hybrids are much more sensative to nitrogen than most...... Your plants are showing the classic "claw" symptoms. Keep in mind even many "professional" growers struggle with properly feeding sativas.

I hear ya.. You run GH micro/bloom right? Think I should up the feed to 8/16 opposed to 6/9?

I like more lights, def better than wasting electricity on heat instead of the light. But Mr.D's
Co2 idea is rite on if keeping electric down is the reason

About that ec sd. It looks tasty, I want to try her out. One of the hybrids I'm running this time is a cross from her.

thats the haze dominant pheno with the leaf curl. You're gona get the leaf curl with that pheno. Might wanna check the ppm's in your coco with that plant to make sure nothing is building up. 5/10 might be better for those phenos but don't up to 8/16

About the leaf curl. What is your RH? Too dry can def make leaves canoe. Do you know about VPD?

@Rolldaddy- RH is about 38% at the moment....
@Watts- After checking out TB's it seemed only one pheno was rockin the killer leaf curl which was leading me to believe it was the pheno. Either way I will make the next feed 5/10 opposed to 6/9.
