Probably no other way to say it...but keep those fans on as long as needed to keep your area cool. It doesn't matter how long they stay on for. If the fan noise is a problem, then there are approaches to help.

If you do not want to manually control the fans, you can purchase a fan regulator which automatically turns the fans on and off depending on what temp. you have it set to.

You really don't want the temps to get over the mid 80's if you can help it.

In my tent I have the fans run the whole time the lights are on. I have an air cooled hps hood though.

i have a question!

is there such a thing as a fan regulator that can also control the speed of the fan? because when my lights are on i will want the fan to be on its highest, and when the lights are off, i want it to be on low, just to keep the smell in check.

I haven't seen any that change the speed dynamically. You could look at using a ductstat. DuctStat Plug Inline Voltage Thermostat typically available at your local hardware store.
