@Vega0284, Oh I get that a lot...I mean, did you see how my plants have been bending lately?

@@Ssomeguy, That's a great idea! Yeah I know it's not a problem currently, but unfortunately my overly anxious mind tends to torture itself with its favorite game.., "what's the worst that could happen". Lol

@Vega0284, About the humidity, sure, it's not the same thing, but I've used some cheap ass sinks like diatomaceous earth in egg cartons, some fans and a heater, some very cheap dehumidifer stuff (like $1.5 for 500grams) in my drying room and I've kept the humidity just around 60% at 21c throughout. Again, not the same thing, but maybe worth considering depending on your conditions (since you're concerned about the growing humidity, but I don't think that's a concern until mid-late flowering, at least not from what I've experienced). I'm also gonna be doing sun/air drying for a few hours with new harvests (while the plant is fresh and can still produce stuff for a little while), basically turning a week drying time into 1-2 days drying time with no loss and possibly (probably, according to me) even gain. Though it depends on the weather.

@@Ssomeguy, Yeah that sounds like a struggle. I'm constantly monitoring the temps in my green house, I luckily built in two doors that would help ventilate. So if it hits above 85, I can just open the doors and temps stay in mid to low 70s. Right now its consistent with 73 degrees F and 70% humidity. Not sure how the humidity is going to change as the summer ends and these girls start flowering. Worst comes to worst I can rig up a dehumidifier out there.

@Vega0284, Not kidding, in good conditions (too cold/humid now) that thing would go for another month. Double the size (mass) almost. But I really wasn't expecting them to grow as tall and for as long as they did, I was expecting 5-6 months, 2m plants (planted just after it was legalized here, around start october). My best plants are closer to 9 months for proper maturity (ideally, but not in these conditions). Instead, I got fimmed plants that were 2m... https://growdiaries.s3-accelerate.amazonaws.com/static/post/photo/19262/998171_continuation-of-first-growcustomsativa-dominant-hybrids.jpg

@@Ssomeguy, That's awesome man, yeah you're right, alot of the times I see people and get advice to do XYZ EVERYTIME, most of the time, less is more. Just follow the feedchart, your gut and go with problems as they arise. Using white paint on the pots is a great idea, it shouldn't get too hot where I live outdoors, average it says is 88 for the summer, which will help. But I am considering painting my indoor DWC buckets white to help manage the temp of the nutrient solution. And man your plants look great! That first one, the size of that main cola is ridiculous! Looks like something out of a Dr. Seuss illustration hahah!

@@Ssomeguy, Yeah that's smart, I topped 2 of the 6 I have growing just to see what would happen in the long run. I'm honestly considering getting some mylar and wrapping it around the lower part of my green house to help with light when it can. But living out here the weather seems really uncertain. I don't have too many issues with water, as they are pretty close to my house, and the water table here is super high.

@@Ssomeguy, That's awesome! Yeah the two I have in fabric are autos, the rest are dug in a hole thats about 5 feet down and 4 feet wide. Definitely excited to see how these girls develop now that they are in sunshine!
