That sounds like trading one set of problems with another set of problems. 
You do get in line air heaters that you could rather use with your ducting
But I really don't think it's needed in SA
 

I did the opposite intentionally to get temperature fluctuations in flower to be over 10C+ and got some awesome colours to come out, but I may have stunted growth a bit in hindsight.. lessons 

If I can figure out how, I want to drop temps during the day in my garage or just for the tent then I'll have room to experiment with temps... I'm designing a small electric aircon for my tents intake. Hopefully I can optimise it and get some actual cooling going on.

Looks like a @Master_G LED. Good find 

I also started off with HPS then moved to a similar LED. I just finished my first grow with an LED all the way through and the temps did get quite chilly right at the end, but the cold certainly did good things for the colour of my flowers. 

I recently now germinated under bulbs in order to generate some heat due to the cold. You might find yourself switching between the bulbs and LED depending on what season we're in and how hot/cold it is. 

Even considering getting a few of these, just waiting to see what he comes out with next. Lol.

I found that running my light cycle during the night, and dark cycle during the day has stabilised my temps within an 8°C range.

The quickest home remedy I've seen to heat things up in a tent is someone placing a halogen bulb or 2 inline with the air intake.

I'm not sure how effective this is, but it seems like it may work... It may lower humidity though.

I know it's not the norm, but it's the easiest thing if you're really stuck for something.

Ah, this makes a lot of sense... I was try to access the site through a browser on my phone and it kept giving me the not safe screen... Was a bit confused.

Thanks for letting us know.

Okay, so I fed her a few hours ago and she's doing really well. Can't wait for the buds to start filling out so I can finally see what they look like!

I didn't consider the size of the new pot so I misjudged when I would have had to feed her, hence the delayed post. Nothing's really changing, but she is moving along well.

She has really good structure but I feel the internodes could've been tighter. All in all, I'm happy with how this Inzane is turning out, and there isn't much longer left. 

This tree is also due for a defoliation real soon.

Enjoy.

Right guys we finally have our nominees! These will now go to the voting panel and we hope to have the winners announced as soon as we can.

In order of submission:  

Awesome entries this month guys, loving them. All the best to everyone!

Also a big thanks to @420SA for hosting these comps, it genuinely adds more excitement to my grow every month since I knew about it.

I've only ever seen this kind of thing on international sites in fully legalised and regulated countries, so it's really cool that it's being done here as well.

LOL I went to Marijuanaseeds.com and not Co.za 
. Com selection is beyond conceivable 
With 14 thousand strains to choose from... I doubt I would even be able to make a choice

I've had a few plants that had those looking like it's a male, then a pistol comes out that sack and not more sack and pollen, is that a Hermie or just a fat pistol?

Fuckin' hermies brah, at least you caught it! Hopefully it didn't have time to pollinate anything

Looks sick man, what light you have there?

I have the Hipargero HG800 240w COB LED fixture... Its a fantastic light, just a bit older tech now. 

Shiiiiiiit this months entries are fire!! Congrats to all the contestants
- may the odds be ever in your favour

Okay so here's that long overdue update. Apologies for the delay. 

I was fighting a losing battle with the Black Fire tree, and managed to sort out the lockout issues I had, only to have the tree recover and hermie on me... You can read about it here if you'd like to see what happened;

The Inzane in flourishing. I've transplanted her into a 20L smart pot 2 days ago and did some light LST to spread her out a bit more. The first 4 pictures are from transplant day - the rest I took a few minutes ago. 

Seems like she filled out the tent well but I know I'll see a lower yield than my Blue Dream tree as this wasn't a true mainline and the bud structure is a bit more spaced out. 

I'll stick to creating a Flux or regular mainlining from my next grow, I prefer it, also I think 1 tree at a time in this tent is enough. I don't want to have to lose a tree again.

She's due for a feed tomorrow, and a light defoliation as well. Will update once it's done. 

Enjoy

The QBs are with UPS (63$).. and more than double as fast as quoted.. I thought they will need 12 days at least.. 5 days ^^ DHL with the drivers was also 5 days, so yes.. they are on time. Just never ever use EMS for shipping right now. Termination over Post Office might be a painful experience.. a bit like usual hehehe
I saw the free express shipping on checkout.. I didn't saw or knew it was free. 
 
I might want to add.. the China order I contacted the seller. Ordered Friday and when nothing was moving Wednesday. I wrote a friendly contact message.. if not moving by today, refund and I order somewhere else. Got the tracker very short after..

Scheduled Delivery

Monday2020/06/08

Na, i took the QBs from China ^^ Aliexpress and the drivers from digikey (US).. digikey gave me free express shipping..  liked that

nope, will get 4 QBs inbound Monday.. the 5 drivers already made it yesterday ^^ already paid customs fees for the QBs hehehe and the parcel just left Kuwait. UPS is on fire at the moment  

shipping was free.. took a spare ^^ want to run the dimmer over the arduino system.. so the 0-10v version driver fits sweet.

Thanks bro... I forgot about Biltong & Budz

Just now, Prom said:

Would suggest this one https://www.marijuanaseeds.co.za/gelato-feminized.html but just saw, hasn't really the punch of the 42fastbuds auto Gelato.. which is set to 26%

But my main suggestion would be.. go sniff with the American boys. I love GSC.. but is just very old school now. Leave the Dutchies and swim over the pond and have a look.. till now my journey was very pleasant. 

Yeah, America is doing some hectic shit with these strains... The names are hard to keep up with, and THC percentages are being pushed higher and higher, I'm pretty sure that soon there's gonna be a whole range of 30+% THC strains for you to select from. Lol. 

I was also considering checking out some Canadian seed banks.
