So I need some suggestions on how to keep my cab cool as my Humidity on average is between 52-58% and my temps are on average between 82-88 F. My 2 plants I had growing are now deceased due to a friends "help," so I just want to get the cab running tip top first before I pop some more seeds. Should I do inline fans for intake and exhaust?

I don't have either in there thats why you can't see them. I get paid friday so I can get the materials then. My house on average sits at about 80F, so how should i set it up?
 
i always read that more exhaust is best - and a passive intake should let the exhaust suck in the cooler air and create negative pressure which will force the smell (not to much an issue for veg) to only exit thru the exhaust only - and prob a carbon scrubber. Intake goes on bottom as heat rises and you dont want to suck in hotter air.

this is my first grow and i gotta wait till i get a A/c as my ambient temps in my studio apartment is usually 85 degree F as is. :/ good luck buddy!

80 is fine. But you need a fan. 2 inside just moving air. And a large one moving twice the cfm of your room. And dump the air into another or you will not stay where you are. Sorry kid it sucks. Good weed ain't cheep and growing great weed cost alot.

Since the last post I've added a 4" Inline for intake and a 8" inline for an exhaust And now have put an A/C unit in as well and my temps stay at a normal 76-78. I thank all of you for the input. Check out my grow in my sig, just now starting to scrog.
