Growing In Attic

Getting ready to start my first grow. I'm going to have 2 plants and my space is going to be in the attic. The attic has a decent amount of space, but I'm worried about ventilation.

My area gets pretty hot in the summer, like 100+ degrees F. My attic currently has ventilation areas that are basically square holes with chicken wire covering them. Will this be enough? Should I get one of those box fans? I plan on using a grow box, or maybe the trash can method.

If anyone has any tips or guidance that would be appreciated.

Thanks :bigjoint:

Bump

I'm mainly wondering if it's going to be too hot in there to grow. Should I take extraprecautions for heat. If so what would you do? Thanks

AN ATTIC POWER FAN CAN HELP WITH VENTILATION BUT WILL NTO REALLY HELP TOO MUCH WITH THE HEAT. iT WILL NEVER GET COOLER THAN AMBIENT OUTSIDE TEMPS WHICH CAN GET IN THE 90'S, I WOUDL SUGGEST SETTING UP A SMALL CLOSET IN UR ATTIC WITH SOME KIND OF WINDOW UNIT AIRCONDITIONER SUPPLYING COOL AIR.
