run a inline fan and duct it into your light if you have one like that or make a cool tube in the faq section, the light is whats putting out the heat so if you can control that your good, i had similar problems until i did that

no 90 is not good... i had the same problem even with the light 4 ft. away. it grew but very slow and then i got some cfls and the temp is now 77 and they are doin great. Although, you can get a ducted reflector and it will greatly reduce the heat from the room given off by light and it works very well aslong as you have the light ducted.
i was still getting highs of 90 at the temp of the plant when i had ducted an a.c line blowing right on the top of the plants...and i'm actually gonna get some high power LEDs or a ducted reflector... but a ducted reflector requires a lot of work

I have a 4" centrifugal fan and it is hanging right next to my light, if I get the cool tube will the temp drop 5 degrees or more since it's at 90 now

I see stretchin a little bit... and those reddening stems definitely show it has hit that heat.. closets can get very hot with HIDs. when you get those temps down.. they'll be fine. thats a nice reflector that your replacin. i would sell it on ebay if you dont think there any other use for is
