Well, I have the door open 12 hours a day. With three fans and a humidifier. The temp sits right about 78 all day. But then I have to close the door since I have two plants flowering right now. And I have to turn off one of the fans and humidifier then. Average temp at night is like 86. It was 90 this morning. Too hot. Oh and I got 15 pucks. 30 bucks on ebay.

Just got my third and final order from the doc, 5 feminized Skywalker, 10 Nirvana Bubblelicious, and 10 Nirvana White Widow. I'll only be growing two of the Skywalker's for now and save the Nirvana's for my next grow.:bigjoint:

And what do you know, I just opened up the Skywalker and seeds went flying everywhere lol. Not to mention I could only find 4 of the 5. :sad: Oh well. I just put two of them in to germinate. Both of my Cali Indica's have sprouted and been repotted, still waiting on the Purple Wreck. I'll post pics later, I'm off to go look for some sort of A/C unit.

As well you should be lol. Well, apparantly I missed the summer supply of fans since home depot didn't have shit. Guess I'll have to find one online. I didn't really want to have to wait for it to be delivered but oh well what can you do.

Oh no it's cool. I found the other seed. Was just hard to find in the carpet lol.

Yeah, I got plenty of fresh air during the day while the door's open, temp sits at 78. But at night the door has to be closed so no, there won't be any fresh air coming into the room. Will that thing be usless then and just circulate shitty air or will it still cool the room?

2100 BTU's, 600 CFM. The temp I'm talking about is in the tent. Mainly becasue it has to be zipped up and it's not that big inside, making it so hot. There's no heat from the lights in the tent, they're just CFLs

Nah if you raise it anymore the plants aren't going to get enough lumens. It should be anywhere from 6-22 inches away. I would actually lower it lol.
