85 f with the thermometer shaded from direct light and located at the top of the plant is the maximum i've seen quoted on this site, higher if you add co2.

if you're not using co2, you're gonna suffer with those high temps. high temps. = light/fluffy/airy buds. the buds will look o.k. but after the cure, the weight just won't be there.

if the thermometer is in the light it is getting radiant heat from the lamp that gives you an artificially high reading. temp limits used are for temps in the shade but under the light. try putting a small piece of cardboard over the thermometer

ok I bought a new intake fan, and not the thermometer is shaded it already seems like its going to be cooler. I will keep you guys updated. My plants are drooping however as if they cant hold the leaves up could this be due to the heated they were in? I know it can be over watering to but I wont water for a while and see how they do. I have a small oscilating tower running on low to help make the stems strong.
