My Tent Or Yours (15-12-14)
massivemick..I have a 600w and the top of the buds is around 18 to 20inches mate and its warm but not too hot so I am sure this will also be ok for your plants,open the tent flaps wide as possible because it can get to 30c to 32c in my tent if those flaps are shut,my temps are around 24c which I think are ideal

its the same watts but you would get more lumens that penetrate the leaves mate,a good idea is to have maybe a 600w hps above the plants and a 250w cfl or so in between the plants to give the leaves that are not getting any lumens from the hps but make sure you dont hang the cfl vertically from the top,make sure the cfl is pointing upwards from the floor

i have a peace of sting hanging 18" from my 600w hid and have a glass thermometer hanging from it, i always try and keep the top of the thermometer level with the top of my plants, so far iv found this ideal and you also get an accurate temp reading at canopy level and you know when to adjust your light height

i,ve seen some light hoods with fans clamped on them to cool the lights do you think this will help with the heat alot more?? i have my fans clamped on the side of my tent pointing at the plants, where do you think is best to put fans??
I have only a big summer fan on a stand blowing coo, air onto my 600w hps bulb,its on highest setting and it also blows around the tent amongst my plants so all is ok,and i have a filtere/fan as well and I always leave the tent flaps open which i think is essential for healthy plants,just make sure the door is closed and have wall aroma spray things..
