You don't want an air conditioner in the tent. The cold air blowing on it will be too much and can herm your plants. Keep the A/C on the outside of the tent and if you have to, unzip the tent a little in the front and on the sides. Keep a thermometer on the inside of your tent and make sure you have one in the room, outside of the tent so you can gauge how cool the room has to be in order for the tent to be cool enough inside.

Thanks guys :) I decided against getting one cant really justify it for like to odd week or so of hot weather we get each year lol I think Im going to invest in a better fan controller. I do pump in cool fresh air into both tents but sometimes its not cool cause it is from outside. I have in take and out take for both tents so this should not be happening really as any hot air should get sucked out with the hot air from the light but yeah if your pumping already hot air in there its no good. Obviously cant turn them off cause I need them I mean my fan controller atm is certainly not a cheap one its a control freak fan controller so yeah maybe not a good bet for the money. granted you can fit and infinite number amount of fans on it but thats probably the best point for getting one. Thanks for all the detailed answers. If I could select them all I would sorry guys.

Best is to keep it outside the tent. Draw the cool air in from the outside the tent. Exhaust warm air outdoors. If you have a small ac unit like 5000 btu i guess you could put it in the tent if you have the room.

It's alot easier to control the climate outside the tent then inside. Plus using an air conditioner outside your tent, you'll get to enjoy the cool air as well.

I personally place my air condition outside the tent and let it blow thru one of the lower vents
