Its hot AF. Anyways my get room has been in mid 80s. I was thinking of putting a scrubber I have going in and out. Should work just fine right?

440cfm in a 10x10x7 with with 1500watts of hps/t5.

I was able to cool my grow tent with the AC from my flower room but we did was actually duct the ac through the flowering room and into the veg tent. Cut big enough holes in the ducting for the flower room so that you get adequate AC and the rest will go into the veg tent. Was getting up to 90 in my veg room, now it ranges between 78 to 82

Yeah I might just cut a whole in the wall and slap on old ac in there. Any portables leak smell during late flower/harvest. Usually dont need one but its hot out right now and Im trying to not use my t5 tbh. It'll be fine in another month or so tho.

And this is the veg room correct? Mid 80's? Perfect conditions. Unless your plants are telling you other wises. I pretty much have the same exact set up only for Mother plants and only 1320 watts of T-5's in a 10x10. A suggestion that I'm going to be trying soon is replacing T-5 with those 250 watt cob bars, same foot print less heat better growth supposedly.

Plants look fine, but it's been in upper 80s and high rh. I can exhaust the room but odors another problem in itself and portable leaks odor also.

I hate summers. This ones been especially rough.
