yes in matter i do have 2 - 6in inductor fans blowing out with about 20 intake holes bringing fresh air in, as far as temp my water has always stayed cool and my buddy threw a thermometer in there and it was around 80-85F and this was measured at the end of a 16 hour light cycle so it was at its hottest point in time. i do have 2 mini fans blowing right on the plant adding a nice breeze. and yes the kit came with a complete schedule for clones to seeds to veg to flower. here are some fresh pics that i just took, im using some small hooks for something that i can tie the lsting string to as you can see

Your water temps are around 80-85F or your room temps? Tat would be real warm for the soup if that's the case.

hey man thats a stout little monster you have there very nice grow! if your having heat issues try and run an intake vent in near your light and an exhaust vent just about the light on the opposite side heres a quick diagram it may help i had heat issues when i was in a custom box too this was the only thing i found that actually helped

sweet man and how do you cool your HPS casue im still having a real hard time with that in this box
I live at 5,000ft, so I run my light at night to keep them warm in winter, cooler in summer. I have fans blowing and passive vent along the top. I going add like an attic fan to move the heat out, I grow legal, so don't have worry about smell. I have reflective material on wall like you do, it add to the heat problems. Remember heat rises so will come out top by it self, so adding fan and vent on top will help a lot, I am a roofer and it part of my job to allow hot air to leave. Some ideas any way!!!....rw

see the only thing is if you look at some of my earlier pics im limited with room when connecting a fan im considering upgrading to a 600W MH and HPS with a cool tube running straight through the box. (also leaving me with more room for a larger plant)

Cool tubes work good from people say. If you have a/c you could run the intake to a register and draw cool air that way....Good luck!!!...rw

I run a cooltube and have produced some nice buds. Ive heard they limit the lumen area but the things are so "cool" you can get them within 6 inches of your plant (when done carefully). I recommmend them highly if you have heat issues, I have one and a centrifugal fan and I will never go without the airflow over the hps again. I was going to consider the XXL hoods that are vented with the glass... but they're pricey.

if he had bought just the kit hes going to run out of the boost and the thrive alive b1 you can just order a 1 liter online for a decent price and yes techflora is amazing so far but ill make my final statement soon as i smoke some of the trees

i actually am planning on connecting my air conditioner to my intake holes at the bottom. i wish these inductor fans pulled more air through
