Direct sunlight 5-10 minutes a day to trigger pinning faster?
    #21966197 - 07/19/15 04:56 PM (8 years, 6 months ago)

Just read that putting a monotub in direct sunlight for 5 to 10 minutes a day will give a good pinset/help it pin faster.

I just took my monotub outside for 5 minutes so it can get direct sunlight.

I can't achieve that with the window, I just get the ambient sunlight.

Am I doing it right guys or am I doing WAY too much?





And back in its environment :wink:

1 hole open, receiving that FAE, looking good!

I like to use indirect sunlight and that's what I would recommend.

Direct sunlight can quickly lower RH and dramatically increase temps.

5 minutes of sunlight, is no sunlight.

If all you have is natural sunlight, then I guess youll just have to make due with that:shrug:
But I would urge you to invest a few bucks into a 6500k lightbulb.

Next time, opt for the tub that is clear or semi clear. Its harder for light to get into a blue tub as opposed to a clear one.

You also dont need one hole removed for FAE. Thats what the poly is for. If your tub is dialed in correctly, you shouldnt have to lay a finger on it until harvest time. Monos are "set and forget".

5-10m of direct sun is great.
But you still want proper lighting for the other 49.99% of the day.
A clear tub
And a dialed in tub

I dont see how 10 mins will affect negatively, unless the sun suck out all the moisture,
