    Thanks for that Beth, I appreciate your help with this.
    My plan is to ultimately make some oil that I can make into suppositories for him, I may even sample some of my home grown, Its been a while though!!

    This makes me even more determined to help you get some lovely bud for him.

    It takes a lot of bud to make a little medicine so I dont think we will be on to a cure all here.
    Will you be making oils,edibles or is this just for the lovely herb??

    Fingers crossed indeed! It was a fairly hot day, well for here anyway! Probably 18ish?! A close friend of mine has a spare cfl bulb and ballast he could loan me, that should run a lot cooler than the sodium halide shouldnt it?

    I could set the tent running this morning before work and nip home to take readings at 12ish.

    A cfl bulb does not need a ballast and is only useful for the vegetative stage.

    Whats this sodium halide you speak of? Does it give off blue or red light when lit?

    More dry runs you can do before the plants go in the better.

    If you had temps of 37 when the outdoor temp was only 18 then its gonna be tough.

    Hey Beth, Its a High Pressure Sodium bulb, my mistake! Its a dual spectrum apparently.

    I did a dry run earlier between 12.30 and 13.30
    Inside the garage was 17.5.
    Inside the tent was 33.2 with 11 rh!
    Doesnt look promising does it?

    One of my seeds sprouted today too! Click image for larger version.
