Without even turning my six 2' T5 HO bulbs on, my closet is 77 degrees...I could maybe vent air from cooler part of my RV (recreational vehicle)...but I would have to install fans and ducting from one room (cooler room) to bathroom closet.$$$$$$$ fuck....there goes keeping it cheap....lets say I just grow anyway and temps get to 90's...how could I expect my plants to react to a high temp grow environment

Not well. My grow started out too hot, 87-93F and they showed absolute minimal growth for two weeks, until I moved them. Two of them ended up dying (out of 11). I'd suggest finding a cooler spot or opening up some windows. With the window open and my grow closet part-way open, the temp has been between 76 and 83F, which is still a little hot..... I read that Satori (from Mandala seeds) is heat-resistant, so I bought some but haven't planted them yet. You may look for a heat-resistant strain, but I doubt anything could survive at a constant 90F. Good luck

Guess I'll have to duct in cooler air...my closet is in my bathroom (no windows or access to outside air)....I keep the door closed to maintain stealth...very small closet in a tiny bathroom...heat seems to build up quickly....Crap...I've already spent about $500 on grow closet...cant stop now

my temps are always over 80 degrees. Plants are doing great. Ak-48, white rino, ganja dwarf, bubblegum. Big fan on my plants though
