How you going to ask a question that is in 3 sentences that arent clear and provide no where near enough information for anyone to provide a halfway intelligent answer?

No air cooled hoods, intake size, exhaust fan cfm, type of fan, carbon filter, ambient temps, using CO2, running fluros same time as HPS or just for veg?



At any measure i think an air cooled hood/cooltube is a must in this case. I run a 600 hps in a 2 x 3 x6 cabinet and keep my temps to 91 if I exhauset the cooltube with 300 cfm. If I use a 100 cfm in my cooltube and exhauset my cab at 80-100 cfm my temps stay 3 defrees above ambient.

ambient temperature refers to the temperature of the room that your grow box is in

And your cab temp is 89 correct... You are doing well as you are only 7 above ambient in that small area with that 600. Afraid you may have to drop ambient my friend or maybe pull cold air into the light tube, or cab intake.

Also make sure you are blowing you light exhauset out the room.
