Yeah, I saw you...

You were licking yourself weren't you? Lol

Five 10 Watt bulbs.

50 grams max for both plants for me.



I can't wait to fire up a Reiko in my closet with 300 Watts.

I think I did okay though and won't regret it in the morning. Lol

that's exactly what you wanna do with this kind of light setup

My closet plant is doing well.
She's almost 35" tall now, and I think she's finishing up her stretch.



















I've removed quite a few leaves, but she has lots left.

ReikoX's plants are also doing well.
Their stretch appears to be over as well.

This is a post from another thread.

I took your advice (as well as other's advice, ) and plugged in my heater.
(the light fixture that I had screwed to the floor only lasted a day. It just felt wrong and maybe dangerous?)










I unplugged my "exhaust" fan which saves me 60 Watts and will help me keep the heat in the closet.








I did a smoke test on the closet and I still have airflow out of the top.











I have a bucket of wine bubbling off CO2 so I should be OK with the CO2 levels.
(but I'm not sure. My CO2 meter is a piece of crap. Lol)



My ladybug is still hanging around.
I think that's good luck?








(I wonder if she's hungry? Maybe I should bring in some spider mites for her to feed on? Lol)




I also turned down my furnace to 65° which will save me on energy costs, and both I and my cat are more comfortable in cooler temperatures.


I also have an "ultrasonic humidifier" that I will consider plugging in, but I don't want to invite any mold.

I dunno?









PS... Feel free to post any suggestions or observations you have on my thread.

You've done all the homework that I never did, and I want to copy your notes. Lol

Noted.

It's not that I think I had a problem with my plant, but I think I had a problem with my math.

I may actually be saving money on utilities with my furnace turned down, my light timing reduced from 20/4 to 17/7, and my fan unplugged.

And I may even end up with better quality buds and possibly even bigger ones?



I don't think it's too late to warm things up.
It may actually be perfect timing with her going into flower now?


Comments and suggestions are welcome.

I'm just winging it. Lol

[PCBuds]

I decided to move my fan back to its original position.
The fan blades were kinda precariously positioned.
There is still plenty of room for air to get past the blades and the CO2 vent from my second bucket of wine is closer to the intake now.

Okay, I'm going to aim for 82° F.
I want optimum.


I don't remember what that is because my meters are metric.
I converted to it...








I like all the sevens, I think it's good luck?

For me, that means leave the damn door shut and stop sending all of my heat into the room behind me. Lol
I open the damn door about 30 times a day.

I'll open it one more time for a picture... Lol











I'll warm her up a bit more tomorrow when I'm not so damn drunk. Lol

Meanwhile, I'll try to keep an eye on her...
