heya late night tokers
so im on the 25th night for flowring, its my second grow overall, first time hydro.. and its crazy hot here with canopy level at 24 \ 28c with ac on \ off , 23-5 at night also ac is on \ off tentaviely as its a central unit..hence my water temp is way above 21c without frozen bottles inside, the water are always at least 2c above room temp when lights are on, now checked for the first time tonight water temp since i got my green light, and the temps on 3 different buckets are as following: bucket A (18L): 22c bucket B (18L): 19c bucket C (30L): 21c, dropped frozen bottles 3-4 hours ago so temps may climb a lil more..
When I put a bottle within 1 hour it goes as low as 15c then rises within 3-4 hours to 21 and up again so questions....
- am i doing alright with these night temps? say they can raise by another 1-2c
- when res gets to 15c even if for an hour or less, is this harmfull?
- i reckon the frozen bottles stress my roots as they touch the roots, is this ok?
any other ideas for keeping my water chill that are not peltier(TEC) devices would b appreciated as if i dont put a bottle first thing in the morning it can soar within an hour to 26-28c! with ac on!
and some pics of them babies
