Are you using extraction fan? and passive intakes? or an active intake? if it's passive perhaps you need to open more. Needs to be 3x the surface area of your exhaust. If it's an active. are you getting negative pressure or positive pressure? all these things can play havoc with your heating / cooling issues. Also a small Ac unit can cool the room it's in. I'm forced to do this during the hot summers here! Happy growing! 👊

🤦‍♂️🏽 The only way to deal with hot air / humidity is to cool it down with an a/c unit . It don’t matter how many fans you have pushing , pulling intake exhaust your just moving around hot air just being honest 👌🏾

And by transportation rates I mean circulation.. The plant is always circulating and moving water, nutrients and energy around... It's kind of complex... But it's FRIGGING AMAZING I LOVE CANNABIS WOOT.

When the temperate increases to 30-40 range the transportation rates increase dramatically in the plant... Soo growers see damage and assume it's from the heat.. It's not. I love learning don't you?

Hello I'd like to help. There is very common misconception about temperature and cannabis.. What really hurts and stresses the girls is Swings. Now why I say this is because I have seen quite a few diaries with cannabis plants that are at 35-40 degrees and they look a okay. Keep in mind tho there is a difference between how a sativa plant handles heat vs. how an indica plant handles heat. Did you recently do another change?? like for example did you move the light closer?

You can run you lights during nighttime and lights out during the day. See how your temps are and get more gear if necessary. I keep my tent in the basement which helps. Cheers 🍻

How's the temperature outside of the grow Box? If it's a moderate temperature being indoors you could get some ducting several feet of it and put the end outside where it's cooler hook that up to the inline fan and bring in that cool air, and open one of your vents. Or buy an additional several feet of duckting and put that on and out going vent and let that hot air out the window. If you keep your house relatively cold, 70 degrees or so it should make a decent difference.

Pump ac in there or upgrade to a better fan that can replace the air every minute or so. Cheers
