{Temperature Too Hot}

So the temperature in my closet is getting to 31 - 32 *C with my 2 week old plants. the plants arn't burning but i can see the leaves starting to come up a bit on the sides wich i think is heat stress.the lighs are on from 1 pm - 7 am,( I wanted to have it around the hours when i was home) in the day i can keep my closet door open and the temperature goes down to 26 *C but at night like I said it gets up to 31 - 32*C. the question is can just change the time to practicaly all daylight hours or will that somehow mess up my plants? I am using a 400 watt hps in a 5ftx2.5ft x 9ft closet with an oscelating fan wich i put upside down so it would give my plants a breeze and keep the air moving. whats is a good way to keep this closet cool? im going to put the transformer thingy on the shelf up top instead of the ground by the plants.

Maybe make holes on both sides of the closet and on the one end put the fan and from the other one the air goes out. Might work. I just started growing plants for the first time 6 days ago myself.

good idea. but i dont know how well that will go over with my prents its a new house and i doubt i will be able to put a large hole in the wall.

You can change the time as long as the plants get a total of 18 hour of light. They will adjust

Get a window AC!! GoGo and put a timer on it according to your plant lights if you want. If not, try and get some co2 generation. You can make some home made using yeast, sugar and water. The co2 will help them withstand high temperature.

AC works A++, ghetto rig that with posters, cardboard and trash bags.
