i have a heat problem, and would appreciate some help.
here are the specs:
grow room is 4fx4fx6.6f (1,2mx1,2mx2m). running a 400W Son Agro HPS. got a fan circulating air inside. extractor is 4,7inch ducting (120mm) with 190m3/h inline duct fan.
inlet is one hole with 5,1inch ducting (130mm) with 205m3/h inline fan.
the temp with light on is between 31.5 C and 38 C (88F and 101 F).
I don't have a cooltube (Don't get them in S.Africa, and too expensive to import). Air cooled hoods are also not available. a mobile air con is on the expensive side too.
is there anything that i can do otherwise to bring the temp to a constant 26C (78F) without expensive equipment? the humidity ranges between 31 and 40. i'm in vegistative growing stage, and would like to get the humidity up to around 50-60.
My grow light is under an adjust-a-wing reflector, suspended from the roof of the growing room. how can one attach a sheet of glass to the under side of the reflector?
Last night I put the 200m3/h extractor in the growroom with the 150m3/h extractor already in there. The inlet is one 130mm duct, with a 5m3/h inlet fan. temp is only down to around 31 C. I put the one extractor duct against my face, and the air isn't even hot??? still hot inside.
the growroom is a simple wooden structure, and the sides are white roof insulating plastic, with black roof insulating plastic outside. roof is hardboard (pressed wood)
a container with water inside the room does nothing. does extra CO2 raise the temp a lot?
The temp outside the growroom is around 28 to 30 C. The growroom is inside an outside room, extra granny flat.
