How to increase temp in grow box

Grow Cycle
1

I am in Melbourne, AUS. It is winter and freezing! I have been struggling with my two girls getting cold at night.
Not anymore after I insulated my grow box!
Went up 8 degrees in only 30 mins! Here is hoping these girls love my TLC

Hopefully they love the new warmth

I need to get my girls topped. Only 3 13" plants in a 4 x 4 means too much open area - I need a canopy - gotta get my girls thickening up

This is my “second grow”. First grow out issue was a horror show!
Please show off your girls be keen to see

It’s been getting below zero here
(QLD) I definitely need some insulation in my shed.
I have a tower heater that keeps tent at 24 during the night. The temp struggles are real Gromies :v:

They look healthy! Great job. I can’t wait to taste the fruits of my labour!

The heater must be costing you a bomb!

The insulation was $40 from bunnings

LOL I was actually only using the fan (couldn’t get a circulator fan - $25.00 Bunnings lol) - but just turned that off today - rearranged my inlet to create a light swirl in the tent - got my RH up 2-3%. Will take it out tomorrow.
I don’t expect my minimum to drop much from here, so once my light arrives, I could do with an extra few degrees. The aim is to have a thickened canopy going at the same time. I’ve been holding them back a little - not intentionally - just ‘new growing’ pains.

Excuse my lack of knowledge, what does RH stabs for?

All good - relative humidity.
I am learning as I go and read

@diz I am using my garage which has all but a tin roof of insulation, you reckon I am going to have issues maintaining my environment with July coming up (In Melb)? What kind of lights are you using in your box? I am using a grow tent so may need a bit more insulation.

Might have to stop past Bunning’s this weekend :confused: not looking at using a heater the whole time electrical bills will hurt too much.
