Hey!
Maybe an idea you could do is get more air duct tubing and have one going in and one going out and have a fan by each one blowing air in and blowing air out to keep the airflow constantly moving..also have one more oscalting fan to keep more air flow moving through out your whole grow set-up to get your plants nice and strong...you want to make sure you pull new air in and move the old air out etc...that should cool it down alot!

Hope this helps a little bit..GOOD LUCK! n any more questions feel free to ask!
 
you are on the right track. The Best thing about this site is that you can learn by researching and asking questions of experienced growers. I was on OG until they died. I have not grown in 4 years so it is like starting all over again. Keep asking questions and learn to ignore the negative comments here and you will be ok.
 
You need to draw in fresh air. Cut a hole in your grow box thats equal to one and one half the size of your exhaust hole. Might have to do a little math- heh, heh
 
Hey Bud,
temps at 85 are not the end of the world. Mine get up to 88 and Im doing fine in relation to evryone else's pics and forum posts.
As far as intake goes, (open to critisism) I would make the hole as low as possible to pull in the coldest air possible, as hot air rises.

Thats just my view, but good luck.
