If smkpt and doobsday's idea didn't work try creating a ventilation system by taking a fan blowing into the start of the vent/hose and the end of the vent/hose will be put through a window or any place out of the closet to extract the hot air. One more idea, you could take ice or co2 and suck the air from it and blow it into the room....vis/versa =D *Just make sure the temp doesn't rise over 96degrees celsius

I think that may be a little too warm.

You probably want to run the bathroom fan into a dryer vent and then run it outside or into a carbon scrubber (home-made if on the cheap).

I was under the impression that Co2 caused areas to heat up...Not cool off. (You know, Global Warming and all...:P)

Well 1st of all we werent discussing global warming, we were talking about growing pot, and as far as pot is concerned, co2 does neither, heat up or cool off. It does however allow pot to utilize a higher temperature.
Higher temperature's are a normal by-product of the indoor grower, as the lights used produce heat. The addition of co2 will enhance the grow.
Peace

Cali-high makes a very good point, what are you going to do with 25 plants and one 400 watt light?

You have 2 temperatures you need to worry about. 1 is the general temperature of your grow space and 2 is the temperature of the top of your plants.

Like Videoman said, CO2 doesn't actually cool down the grow room, but lets the plants utilize a higher temperature. By the way, global warming is not caused by C02 emissions......but that is a whole other topic in the politics section lol.

With c02 added what would you say would be the maximum tolerable temperature would be without stunting growth. I know this can also be dependant on strain and/or genetics but just a ballpark figure would be very helpful.
