Some call me crazy, I call myself "THE LIBERATOR WHAT LIBERATES HIS PLANTS FROM THEIR PESKY LEAF THINGYS!"
They needed it and are gonna be much better for the heavy-handed trim. 
The Jew Gold 1974 plants are coming along well.
It’s a total change out of solution this weekend as I’ve been ramping them up slower than normal because I’ve been rather busy and don’t want them bolting on me… yet.
Now in the 4x4 the +30c heat wave has really pissed off the flowering tent… I mean like A LOT. 
It is what it is, I can’t address the problem so they’ll have to ride it out like the missus and I with the bathroom thermostat currently reading 30c… We have AC; it’s doing it’s best but clearly it’s a “this old house” moment.
Despite the heat, the flowers on the Bubba Kush: Matt Berger Cut plants still look fantastic!
Oh and @DougDawson thanks again for the Blue Moon Rocks pollen, these flowers clearly appreciated the dust!

How old is your AC unit? Perhaps it requires servicing? I had one that ran and ran and ran and did nothing.

They have a/c coil cleaner at most hardware stores that’s a quick and cheap. helps air conditioners run more efficiently. I live in desert with hair dryers blowing constantly a/c on full blast house still gets up to 85°. Did the coil cleaning and temps in house dropped 3° overall.
. Just a thought it’s about $10 a can and total work time maybe 15 mins. Takes longer to let the cleaner do its thing.

@Foreigner , it’s less than 5 years and serviced every year (maintained at the start of the season).
It’s a situation where the ducting is only running 2" hose in the main floor and top floor of the home as it was installed as an afterthought once the house was already built.
THE DUCTING IN MY TENTS ARE 6" SO I’M LAUGHING THAT MY OWN CLIMATE CONTROL IS A PISSING 2" TO MOVE AIR!
I set-up my old 6" vivosun to vent directly outdoors from the top floor and that helped until the fucking squirrels tore through my screen window and INTO the ducting and almost into the house! 
I have baffles in the basement so nothing can sneak in but i didn’t have a spare for this usage so I gotta replace the screen window next spring.

I want to start growing in a tent again but I know the squirrels, chipmunks and mice will just chew holes in the tent and make a nest in it, if I do it outside in the barn or workshop. If I do it in the basement it will probably bring more mice into the house. I have a hole in our kitchen cieling that appeared a week ago, I think that a chipmunk got in the wall and then used the inside of the cardboard cieling tiles that these old houses have from the 50’s got chewed up for nesting material 
I wonder if those electronic sonic vermin repellers work, probably just piss the dogs off lol.

Seconded. They do nothing. Luckily for us, a local cat discovered that rodents at our house are trapped in narrow spaces…aka a buffet.
One neighborhood cat (His name is Gershom) got visibly chunkier over the course of a few months, until the critters got wise and got the fuck outta dodge

Hey there, try one of these with some sunflower seeds for your chipmunk problem. Make sure you stake it down so they can’t run away with it.

Hey @Greenfingers what is that called? I love it like a bear trap for mini critters! We got California ground squirrels or voles not sure. Apparently no one else that lives here knows what they are lol. Gophers, prairie dogs, California ground squirrels, voles, moles they seem universal here.

It’s from Home Depot, I couldn’t find the exact one but they have one called Jaws and another called Big Snap both for rats but they work great for chipmunks with sunflower seeds.

@CADMAN the soil surface or “Scarface” the plants?
I got 2 weeks left in this seed run so i’m not stressed. But need to nip this shit in the but before the next run in this 2x2. I’ll already have a battle coming up as some outdoor tropical plants over-winter in this room but that’s usually a scale or mealybugs.
