I mean yeah but also I can’t really control the weather in my garage much more than I do.

But also 90 isn’t too hot

I could put them outside and have it be 90-100 most days but without the control over humidity and vpd which is basically how the plant breathes and regulates in the heat.

Now 90 and 50rh is different than 90 and 65rh

Plants also do exceptional outdoors in worse weather.

I just happen to be indoors only at the moment.

The whole point was that vpd is cool and works wonders. If I followed the advice I was originally taught(decreasing rh throughout flower as low as you can go) my plants wouldn’t have done as good as they did.

My night temps weren’t lower than 75 for that whole grow. Obviously not ideal but cannabis is a tropical plant. It can handle high temps as long as the rh is right. Temps go up so does the rh

So far, meh. But I’m trying, I really am. :slight_smile:

Flower tent is LED on digital timer, w/ timed pump in a 10 gal tank pushing out to drip stakes. So old school with modern lighting, and controlling tent environment with exhaust and room environment.

I’m highly proficient with technology, but still don’t trust VPD 100%, and the whole controller thing has been wonky for me.

I’m only using it in my auto/veg tent, and at his point I’ve bypassed the controller for PPFD and VPD, just using it as a light timer, a sensor hub to kick on the exhaust and humidifier when either is needed based on a threshold I’ve set, and general monitor with another connected sensor monitoring the room stats. I like that I can control it from my phone wherever I have data service.

I had 1 male in the entire pack and it wasn’t what I was looking for to breed with. :pink_heart:

Outside no, inside yes…way hot.

But inside, you can mitigate with multiple waterings using a lower noot strength, Co2 supplementation, and lots of moving air.

Talking about last year. Mines been 86 the last week. Also like we are completely separate grows. Just cuz you have a certain temp right now doesn’t mean anything for me lol

I wanted to do this live, but environmental conditions currently don’t favor that approach. Too many cannabis creators have been losing their stuff lately, mostly after going live. I want to keep my YT channel.

We got 14.75oz dry from that harvest. Just under a pound.

If the Strawberry Cheesecake Auto would’ve worked out, I be chopping that in 3 weeks to add another 2-4 oz in my 90 day window. Kinda bummed about that actually.

The Widows dried to a very sweet earth with a slight hint of gas.

The Cheetahs dried to an offensive super lemon gas with a sweet carrier.

Limonene will do that.

It needs a copious amount of β-myrcene to tame it. :pink_heart:

Thank you ya it’s listed as one for my pain and stuff my main terpene profile is …

Your Simple Terpene Profile

  • Geraniol (Sweet/Floral): This is your top terpene for pain relief. Recent studies found it to be the most effective terpene for significantly reducing chronic fibromyalgia and inflammatory arthritis pain.
  • Linalool (Lavender/Floral): Highly effective for calming nerve-related pain. It targets specialized receptors in the body to reduce fibromyalgia discomfort and promotes the deep, restful sleep I need for nighttime recovery.
  • Beta-Caryophyllene (Spicy/Woody): This terpene acts almost like a cannabinoid by binding directly to receptors that manage inflammation. It is a powerhouse for reducing the joint swelling and stiffness associated with my osteoarthritis.
  • Myrcene (Earthy/Musky): Known for its potent sedative effects, Myrcene helps with pain-induced insomnia by promoting deep muscle relaxation and “couch-lock”.
  • Alpha-Pinene (Pine): Provides calming, daytime energy without the jitters I dislike. It also offers additional anti-inflammatory support for my daily activities.

Why This Works for Me

  • Pain Reduction: This specific combination—Geraniol, Linalool, and Beta-Caryophyllene—has been shown in research to provide high levels of relief for chronic and pathological pain conditions like mine
  • Smooth Experience: Because I prefer a smooth smoke to avoid coughing, floral-dominant terpenes like Geraniol and Linalool provide the sweet exhale you enjoy while still being medically effective.
  • Jitter-Free: By prioritizing these calming and sedating terpenes, you can achieve the relief you need without the overstimulation that sativas like Pineapple OG sometimes cause.
