Room temps

My room temp stays around 78-82 degrees but summers coming, i run my lights at night to offset the daytime heat but im still getting up to 88-90 degrees, i use bottles of frozen water in the reservoir to keep water temps down, and the water hasnt gotten above 78.

Im using a strain that says it can "handle heat" but whats a good frame of reference to know about room temps and humidity?


right now im 86 degrees and 52% humidity water temps 77?

whats a good small portable ac unit for 4 x 6 closet? theres no central ac or heat out there and a window unit would be a neon sign for my location, any advice on in room cooling. i have decent intake and exhaust but temps outside can hit over 100 here!!

i have the same situation so i am making a cooltube for my HPS light. i have thought about a potable a/c and will get one for next year if i find the cooltube isnt going to be enough. is your light air cooled?
 
Hey there lads n lassies just new to all this. Jst invested in a a wee grow tent with all the toys, got a 400w mh light for the veg stage n a 400w or 600w hps for the flowering.

Ive succesfully germinated my plants n potted them about 2 n a half weeks ago n had them under the mh light for a week at 18hrs on and 6hrs off. And now my plants are about 6 inches. I've also started using nutrients in the last couple of days, wasn't sure if it was to early. But now 2 of my plants have stated to get yellow spots :( any ideas as to what this could be? My temps are about 75 to 80 farenheit and my humidity is at 50%.

Any help or advice would be much apreciated thanks.

Could have used too strong of a nute solution bro, it causes nute burn...flush em...then use 1/4 of recommended amount...work your way up to the full dosage. Good luck

you could run a dehumidifier during the lights off time and this will also raise the temp. some.
