Hey Everyone,
I just recently built a grow cabinet (4'x4'x2.5') and I am having some heat issues.
What I have done is finished the box but have not put anything in it as I am doing a "test run" to make sure that I get the temperature right before putting plants in it.
My cab consists of:
1 - 400w HPS
1 - 120cfm bath fan installed into the top of the box
1 - Normal fan mounted near the bottom that is just blowing air.
1 - 30" x 6" Return Air Grill (passive intake) mounted to the bottom of the back of the cab.
I am just exhausting the bath fan into the same room that the cab is in, not outside. I currently have the cab inside my garage which is much cooler than my house and I have not opened any windows because the temp. here is around 86 degrees F.
Anyways, sorry for rambling on... the cab temp is at around 92 degrees F. Any ideas on what I can/should do?
Thanks in advance!
