    Every body is slightly different. Generally 26 degrees all the way through works well.
    Although 30 isn't ideal its not a big problem. Anything over 32ish at week 6 is probably too much but it's still not gonna give you issues straight away. Different strains and genetics have different heat tolerances. Don't quote me on this but I believe MC has been running up to 36 degrees these past few weeks. He just doesn't look 😂 out of sight out of mind😂

    Just keep your eyes open for any nanas. If you do see them, remove them carefully.

    Fingers crossed you should be fine tho mate, just keep em watered and don't let them dry out to much😉

    where in your tent are you getting the 30° from?
    6wks into flower, stretch should have stopped and your buds should just be fattening.

    temps are fine mate, id stick with parabolic. was just curious where your thermometer is thats all, you see people saying my temps are spot on and they're taking readings from a bottom corner of a tent 4ft from the light. if its 27° at canopy its fine.
