in veg plants deal with the heat better ....

hold your hand in front of your plant right on the leaves palm to the plant. hold it for 1 minute. if it's too hot for you to bear, it's too hot for the plant.

only rule of thumb (back of your hand) i know for plants and heat.

Damn some like it hot i guess....

If i get over 85-ish(w/out co2) the buds definitely are not as choice. Some foxtail crazy\"space out"\or get airy-er. As to where the same strain doesnt do this in high 70s low 80s. I mean they still get u high but for sure not as pretty and tight.

I had someone turn off central air when i was out of town....i was embarrassed to give the buds away. Thermometer said highs in the mid90s + while gone.

it's a little strain dependent but some tolerate heat better than others. cool rootzone goes a really long way.

been anywhere between 89-96 degrees at the top of my plants the whole grow, but it's much cooler down below and lotta airflow. still just as dense as ever.

last time, couple months ago during the hottest part of summer.

this was last winter when avg temps were 80 or under. same clone. drastic difference between how it performs in the heat vs the cold.

Ideal temp is 24 deg.C (75 F), maximum you want it is 30 deg.C (86 F)
