    Switch Lights?

    Maybe someone can give advice. I have a girl that is 5 weeks into flower, in a tent SCROGGED doing very well but I fight to get the temp under 85 with a HPS light. Would it be feasible to switch to acT5 to bring that temp down? I currently have to leave the tent door open to get it at 84-85.

    My T5s were pretty damn hot.... idk if you'll notice much difference. I've seen there are lot of us leave the flaps open when the lights are on. & I have gotten some nice buds at 82-88°F.

      How's your ventilation system set up?

          How big is your grow space and what wattage is your light? That plays a huge factor in temperature. Ventilation is key too, how much CFM does your fan/filter pull? You said it's vented outside so that's good, maybe higher CFM? Also, if you're growing in a tent the outside room temperature plays a big part and a small A/C can help with that. I had to put a small A/C in my bigger tent but I also have mine set up where they're off during the day and on at night when it's cooler outside. Helps keep the temperature down in my house too.
