Thanks Ette!!:loveeyes:

It is getting so hot in the growroom I think I may do a double sized spring grow and take the summer off next year. I turned on my sideways MH last night just to see what temps I'd hit and I got to 100 Deg F.

I turned off the MH and we are HPS only till it cools off.

[Shroomette]

Sounds like you need an air conditioner in there man.... Geesh that's hot. might fry those babies. I hope it cools down hun...:heart:

Yeah its really warm but I don't think one day of 100 Deg Temps will hurt em too badly. I have been running in the low to mid 80's with one 400 Watt Light. The second light really raised the temps.

What are you using for fans and ventilation bro?

[prism]

My fans all ventilate into the same room as the plants so the room doesn't ventilate per say... Usually I have few issues because I grow in a basement, but these hot summer temps are killin me.

I take the outtake and attach it to
a vent that the furnace would usually use
to heat a room upstairs, and exhaust all my hot air
up into a room on my first floor.

keeps the basement cool.

Great Idea SG, but my room in a cinder block room.. no vents in or out... Just a door.. I guess I could vent through the door, But that's less stealthy IMO.

You might think of making a swamp cooler

A "Swamp Cooler" is made by stretching a line, hanging a piece of fabric over it (say a towel), putting the bottom of said fabric in a tub of water causing the cool water to wick up, and then having a fan blow on it creating a cooler breeze. It's a balance between a thin fabric to allow of more air but not to thin as to dry out. If you have a small pump you can drip from the top as well and use a thinner medium. The pro systems use a super airy sponge that has water spread on it in a variety of ways. :bow:

Of course in a concrete bunker you might have to remove some of the humidity as well, At night run a dehumidifier. Might be an easy way to make one, don't know . . .
