Yesterday another Super Skunk popped right up. It still amazes me how they just seemingly appear out of nowhere so quickly like that.
I’m going to forgo the PAR meter - those things are way too expensive for a supposed budget grow. I’ll just have to wing it on the lighting unless @Hogmaster speaks up. I think I might bump it from 50% power to 75% power, though. Because…
With a 400 CFM fan, an air cooled reflector, and the light running at 50% there is hardly any heat being produced below the fixture at all! With my hand a few inches below the glass it feels like just a couple of degrees warmer than the ambient air.
Unless I hear that I shouldn’t use more power, I think I will bump it up since heat doesn’t seem to be an issue.
Here’s one thing I haven’t found an answer to in all my readings, though - it’s not clear when I should switch from misting the soil to actually watering it…
