I’ll try that out! It’s just felt hotter right where I put it so I was trying to suck that hot air directly out.I'd move your exhaust fan to be above your light. It'll be hotter up there as that light is easily the largest heat generator in your tent.
What other things have you tried?
Do you have enough air coming into the space? (Do the sides suck in when you've got the exhaust fan on?)
Is the exhaust fan on the highest setting? (seems like a silly thing to ask)
I have it hanging at canopy level almost directly in the centerFirst where is your thermometer?
There is your problem. Move it to canopy level in the shade. A couple inches from the wall is fine. Tape something to the wall to shade it if you have to. Then let us know the temperature.I have it hanging at canopy level almost directly in the center

ok will do! Thank you for the info! Ima go get one and see where I’m at. If they are over 80f would something like an exhale bag work for co2 in my setup?Then the next thing is to buy an IR temp gun and check the canopy leaf temps. This is the actual important part. Leaf temp are not the same as air temps. Without CO2 if you go over 80f leaf temps you may start seeing issues. Different strains will have different tolerance. So not a bad idea to do a bit of research on the strain before ya grow. If you have higher temps pic something that is well suited for it.
Nope... But improving airflow and exchange can. You can increase the cooling ability of a leaf by ensuring good VPD which will increase transpiration rates, forced evaporation by increasing airflow through the canopy (not too much or you will windburn them)I’ll try that out!

I don’t know what else to try, I’ve tried playing with the positive and negative air pressure, different fan set ups,

Ok the light just turned onNope... But improving airflow and exchange can. You can increase the cooling ability of a leaf by ensuring good VPD which will increase transpiration rates, forced evaporation by increasing airflow through the canopy (not too much or you will windburn them)
Then you can increase air exchange to bring in more cooler air, use added ventilation on the light.
Best thing is to first get accurate air and leaf temps because you may need to do none of those
ok ima give it a day and get exact readings and go from there then! I’ve moved the fan up and moved the hygrometer. Thank you for the advice!Nope... But improving airflow and exchange can.

Don't need a day. Just got in there after a few hrs and it should be up to TempOk the light just turned on

This is all three taken on the top leaves. Guess I don’t need to adjust?Don't need a day. Just got in there after a few hrs and it should be up to Temp
75-77f leaf temps ideal for photosynthesis without CO2...This is all three taken on the top leaves. Guess I don’t need to adjust?
Thank you for the help and advice bro!75-77f leaf temps ideal for photosynthesis without CO2...
Your golden bro
I would if I had instagram but I don't. To old... LolThank you for the help and advice bro!
also check out my Instagram if you want. I’m new to growing so I’m kidding just putting pics out there for fun. Just where I document my grow! @Octoberscollective
Do you mean like no negative or positive pressure on the tent?Passive air intake would help as well .OD .
I use a old cleaned nut bottle round one at that cut top n bottom off put black stocking or fine material cover both ends open up the bottom round hole at bottom of tent stick the tube in tighten up the ties around the tube have your exhaust fan running 24/7 do up the tent the exhaust fan sucks fresh cool air in through the tube you made to fit through the tent hole passive air is no archived . Regards OD .Do you mean like no negative or positive pressure on the tent?
Love that little grow hack.I use a old cleaned nut bottle round one at that cut top n bottom off put black stocking or fine material cover both ends open up the bottom round hole at bottom of tent stick the tube in tighten up the ties around the tube have your exhaust fan running 24/7 do up the tent the exhaust fan sucks fresh cool air in through the tube you made to fit through the tent hole passive air is no archived .

It one of the simplest and easy way to do it , I’m always looking for as my wife calls it Farm Fix . What can I say I’m a cheap ass Irishman .....Love that little grow hack.
