Hello my dear fellow growers, this is my first post. Quick question for the most experienced.
Central heating will be switched off for 5 days, starting this weekend. I expect temperature will drop from actual 17c min / 23c max to 10 min / 15 max.
She is in the middle of flowering and I am not sure what to do. It is unfortunately impossible to add some alternative source of heating.
Strain: ak47 autoflower
Light: CFL bloom 200W
Day: 45
Stage: full bloom
Box: small (40x40x120)
Photoperiod: 20/4
Other: nicely scrogged
Options on the table are:
* switch to 24/0 for 5 days - the lamp will contribute tonraise temperature, up to 17c or 18c or even better, all the time. Then will finish cycle at 24/0, or maybe switch back to 20/4.
* no change, I expect that during 20hrs light time the temperature should reach 17c or 18c and maybe drop to 10c for 4hrs dark time. Unsure if she can handle it or it's too stressful.
What do you think?
Many thanks,
