What’s up guys me again😂 I’ve got my hps up and running and I’ve got the temperature under control by having my fan blowing directly at the light and I’ve added a oscillating tower fan. How can I keep the temps up when lights go off? Many thanks!

Best way to cool your tent/ growbox?
So I’ve built a custom growbox using an IKEA wardrobe, air vent for intake, two circulating fans, carbon extractor exhaust, and a 600W LED grow light. Temps average at 29 degree Celsius with the lights on full, is this too high? Best way to bring the temps down? Many thanks!

High humidity.
Does anyone have some sage advice on how to keep humidity down? Today we had 36c outside temps and humidity in my tent hit 85%.. Firstly is this an issue? I normally have a reading of 50-60% but I can't lower it today. Second, how can I lower it.

CO² diffuseur use ?
Hey, I added a CO² diffuser bag in my tent. do you have any tips for using it? (smart bag from servovendi) I read somewhere that you have to disable the extractor for the bag to be effective. It's true ?

Do any body have any experience in making your own carbon filter?
Thinking about making one from two steel mesh "ovals" with +-2cm in between. Use some filtration cloth so the carbon don't go through the mesh. And will fill the space between the meshes with activated carbon used for this purpose. Do you think its going to work? Thanks

Ventilation setup
Do I need more than just carbon filters and 2 fans in my 18"×18"×48" grow tent? I bought 6 inch round carbon filters that are about 1/2" thick. And put them in the vent holes for odor control and I have a hanging fan at the top of tent and a small fan for exhaust. Is it enough?

How can I reduce the heat in my 5x5 tent (650w light bar/6" ac Infinity and a ton of fans) without AC? Do I have to leave tent open?
5x5 tent is in a kind of lung room (utility room) that stays around 20C/68F. The tent always seems to be at 30C86F with lights on. Ive added and moved fans, opened more intake vents. I have AC, but its -25C/-13F outside. Id like to drop the daytime temp 5ish degrees for flower.
