how to keep cool???

i got two plants that are bout 4 weeks in flower...n there in my closet... i got a 150w hps bulb over them... with 4 25w cfl's andthe room is jus fuckin BLAZEING in there i got 2 big ass fans on them but it help but not good cause its jus blowing hott air arond n there.. i could crack the door open but i thought they were suspose to be sealed up with no other lights gettin in????? can anyone help ????

You need to bring fresh air in and vent the heat away. Could be as simple as opening a window with a fan in fron of it and cracking the door so air can escape. For really hot days I use a window AC.

what i do is leave the closet door open with one fan blowing on the plants and another on the floor blowing the air around. i dont have any other ventalation which i should but i need help with that. n e ways the temps stay around 80 to 85f n they seem to be doing alright. i use a 150w hps too. i thought bout putting my cfl's back on there but the temps would be over 100f so fuck it, they are fine..

Thanks alot Ima just. Crack the door open, yea I can feel the difference with the cfls it is hotter, koo though thanks for he help, u use 150 w? Wat are u growing n how long u been flowering n my last question, is how u gettin light to the bottom of he plant u know cause really 150w isn't alot...

Running it at night helps tremedously too

sry i dint see ur reply earlier..yes i have a htg 150w HPS that i am using also with 4 26w cfls.. i wasnt flowering then but i am now.. i use the cfls to get to the bottom of the plants for light..

What kind of hood do you have? When I first fired up my flowering room I did not have a vented hood. I would have to prop the door open and use fans to circulate the air. The temps would be in the mid 90's.Once I bought a vented hood it lowered the temps down to 80-85. One of the best investments I have made so far.HTG supply has a vented hood with tempered glass window for $89. I would seriously consider it, either that or a cool tube. The better you manage your atmosphere the happier your plants can be.Good luck

80 to 85 is not all that bad. As long as it is consistent.
I am assuming that is during lights on. Are you able to bring the lights off temps down to around 70 or 75? What is your humidity? Warmer temps can mean higher moisture levels in the air. At 80 to 85 if you can keep them below 60% things should be ok. Lights out below 50% and I bet you will be fine. Got any pics of your girls?
