I run 315 3100k. I really like the spectrum. I would highly recommend it. I don't think it would beat a 600hps, but I think 2 of them would. The heat would probably be about the same. If your worried about heat get a cool tube. Although the glass will cut down the uv. Definitely check out demon trich. Check the thread club 315 cmh.
The only prob with cool tube is, I have 2 tents in a almost completely sealed room. I say almost because it had a glass window that was really just a large piece of glass held in place by molding, I tooom the glass out, replaced it with plexiglass and cut a 6in round hole to place ducting from a portable a/c unit, which didn’t work because the window is 8ft off the ground and when I ran the ducting the hot air just back flowed into the unit causeong the unit to stop blowing cold air, the exhaust just isn’t strong enough to push the air 8ft vertically.
So back to the point, there’s nowhere for the hot air to escape and the room gets to about 100 degrees when both tents are running.
I was thinking about building a shelf and then mounting the the a/c unit on it, next to the window.
I can’t cut the plexiglass and for a window unit to it because the window goes into a shaft that goes into a room that is about 20fy below me, that why I was trying to run the ducting cause from the angel the window is you can’t see the ducting and also I figured 20ft up the hot air would rise to the skylight and mix in with the cold air so the room below me wouldn’t feel the temp change from the exhaust on my a/c unit.
So now I’m out of ideas and not sure how to cool the room. I think that’s why some of my plants are stunted. When I’m only running one tent the temp is 83 degrees.
Any ideas on how to solve this problem? I could really use some help
