Struggling with heat

Hello growers! I’m struggling with keeping temps down while my tent is closed and lights are on. 3x3 tent, HLG 550 RSpec light (biggest source of tent heat), 4” exhaust, passive intake. Running AC in room, unit is too large to put in tent. Any heat mitigation tips?

If you do have an extraction fan and your still hot in there the if you have a portable ac and can Mcgyver a way to hook the blowout on the ac to your intake on your tent. If all else fails open your door and blow cool air in. Cheers bro

Not sure about the HLGs, but some LED panels are capable of having the ballast remote mounted. Would be worth a shot

hi dude, do you have the means to install an extractor fan? if your room has an AC, then with the extractor fan to which you also can attach a carbon filter to control smell, you will start extracting cool air through the lateral small vents into the tent and it should do the job. At least 2 fans (one over the canopy and one below) and if they oscillate would be even better. How much are your temps? Try moving your light schedule during the night, this also helps.
