    Default Does Mylar increase room temps? High temp problems

    Hello, it's been a while but got another grow on the go. Struggling with room temps at 30+ this week, tis warm out!
    I'm running 5 X 600 parabolic HPS, 10"'rhino Rvk out and 6" Rvk in. It's the First time I've lined the groom out with Mylar reflective sheeting, does anyone know if this could lead to an increase in room temps? Cheers all

    Couldn't you try knocking one of the lights off on warm days?

    Cheers for the replies. May have to knock a light or two off during the hottest part of the day, and will take the Mylar down today to compare temps with and without it. Cheers
