Air conditioner in the tent maybe? They sell stand-alone AC units that are awesome if thats in your budget. Other than that maybe just use one 600 for now until you flower if your still vegging. I live in hot ass weather myself I feel your pain.

Yup, AC will be the only way if you want to run both those 600W's.

Alternatively during the day use 1 600W and turn the other on later on during the cooler hours.

cheers guys have been thinking about an AC unit for a while now but thought maybe so more experienced growers maybe had a different solution but its looking unlikely:wall:. i really cant run just 1 light during the day not wanting monsters on 1 side and dwarf plants on the other lol
