I’d turn your ballast all the way down to 75 or 50 percent and give them
the extra week man.. crank that ac all the way up and let those bitches
finish off proper. I’d give them the full 63 days I find almost all plants
need, if they quote 56 days thats usually the bare minimum, every strain
I’ve ever ran took nine full weeks atleast, most of them I go a bit more
and they pack on quite a bit of weight and frost in those final days. You
could then give the plants 3 full days of darkness and let those bitches
frost right up – it would also let them ripen and you would absolutely not
regret it. About the AC – if you are running air cooled hoods you can get
by with 3000 BTU’s per 1000w of HID exhausting the hot air outside of the
growspace ofcourse, Barebulb setups require 5000 BTU’s per 1000w ATLEAST,
I’d say go 6000 to be comfortable. I always go with more than you need,
which allows for expanding in the future and makes it so you aren’t running
the unit full tilt all the time which will most likely wear on the machine
much harder and lessen its lifespan greatly. Best of luck dude.
