I also added an extra fan and put a humidifer in the tent. My humidity was at 20%, I have it at 45% now. And my heat is at 75 degrees.

Thanks! I think they are doing well.

My humidifier is on the floor and my exhaust is all the way at the top so it doesnt get sucked out.

A little over a week into flower and of my 3 ended up being a male. I plan to create my own seeds in the near future so i took the male out and its currently in my living room, i dont mind letting it be a christmas tree while i collect the pollen. The other 2 are confirmed female.

Theres nice little nugs starting to form, cant wait to see how these turn out!

Theyve been getting a feeding of the lucas formula, other bloom supplements, and boosters every 2 or 3 days.

How do you like the 600 HPS I am planning to purchase one and what is the size of your tent. Just looking for some info.

I have been using a 600 watt HPS for 9 years. I love it. I recommend it any day over LED. LED is the future, but it still isnt a viable option. Imho.
