    Default High temperature

    I got a 2m x 1.2m x 2m tent. Running 2 viparspectre p2000. Rhino 5 inch filter and extraction running at 500m3 yet the temp is still hitting 25 centergrade. Anyone got any ideas what else i can try to lower temps? Thanks.

    to be honest 25c is not all that bad especially for LED lights. When I grow with mine i aim for the high 20s sometimes sitting at 30c

    most leds dont heat the plant leaves as much as they do the surrounding air because of the lack of UV in them i believe (someone correct me there if im wrong )
    The leaf temps tend to be 2-5 degrees lower than ambient temps

    So its wise to run the room hotter than usual to compensate, a cheap laser thermometer is a great investment to see the leaf temps

    anywhere between 25 and 35 ambient and im generally ok with it.

    The most important aspect then becomes airflow, keep a good airflow over the plant and the leaf temps will be fine

    NO SELL, NO SMELL, NO TELL!!!

    I'm thinking 25 degrees C is a little under 80 F which sounds good to me.
