Yeah it would work I'll send a picture theres holes I can put a fan or something in it, or what type of fan should I get. Hold on gonna tkae pictures now.
Im pretty sure a box that holds a 300W light isn't gonna get cooled by a pc fan.
How big is your grow space?

I have no experience with them.
The space looks small for 300W of intensity to me.
But I'm not sure with blurple.
However if it's cooking that box at 92° you have to get that under control.

a mix of low humidty and high temps will do you plant a lot of damage, your plant has thrips and this will kill your plant over time if not treated, 92 not to high imo if you hang a wet towl or do somthing to keep the humidty high

What would you recommend for keeping it high. The towl way?
The temps have been around 83-84 degrease w the CFL on the whole time.

There's a lot of people here to try and help you.
Which means you're also going to get differing opinions.
92 with no airflow is not OK. 92 outside ... sure ... but even that isn't ideal.
You're not going to be able to grow with that single CFL, so you've got to get the airflow/temp/humidity thing fixed first.
I HIGHLY recommend abandoning the box for now.
You're in veg so you don't have to worry about the dark cycle yet.
You can veg that plant a few weeks under the blurple in a closet, bathroom ... anywhere convenient until you get the rest figured out.

I don't know if you have thrips or not, but before you start treating the plant, make sure. It's got enough going on already.
Do you have a loupe or magnifying glass?
If so, you will be able to see them.

Nothing to zoom in with. But I can use my phone and zoom closely if that'd work lmao. I'm using that single CFL till its recovered nicely. Its around 81 degrease w the CFL.
