outdoor growing in spain

[sooty]

I HAVE 3 SMALL PLANTS JUST STARTED GROWING ON MY ROOF IN SPAIN, THEY GET A LOT OF SUN BUT IT IS VERY HOT ON THE ROOF SO I HAVE COVERED EACH POT WITH A LARGE WATER BOTTLE WITH THE BOTTOM CUT OFF TO MAKE IT LIKE A MINI GREENHOUSE.
IS THIS OK FOR THE PLANTS?.

[GanjaGuru]

I don't understand.
The temps inside those bottle's are higher than outside them, no?
Marijuana LOVES sun, and hot temps (though not over 100F).

Thnx For That Mate

I Have Binned The Bottles
I Cheked On My Plants After You Replied And They Had Drooped Hope They Are Ok And Come Back To Life.

Im also growing on my roof and the get a lot of direct sunlight and it gets pretty hot here... Just make sure they don't dry out since they will need more water with the hotter temps... anyways, what strain r u growing and how many days are you in right now??? I am about 11 days in...

Shading and Insulating........................

A temp structure above your plants to shade them from the midday sun may help

As would some insulation at the root zone

I have noticed a big difference in my root zone temps by simply placing my pots into larger containers :cool:
