    lighting and heat!

    Hello everyone
    im having a hard time keeping my room under 30c
    it has a chimney with a power vent and two fans bringing air in
    i added the second intake fan last night
    can i eliminate the 2 65w cfls and only run the 400w mh

    it is only one plant
    here is a pic of setup

      Agree the 400w will probably be enough. The two cfl arent contributing that much light, nor heat for that matter. So eliminating them probably wont make that much difference- but its a start.

              Hey Camk Your auto will survive just fine going 12/12.
              Can you send a 4 inch duct hose going up your chimney? If you could then you could get a small exhaust fan going.
