TY soo much!
just up planted 4 plants to 5 gallon grow bags so have 5 full size monsters ready to xplode under the 1k mh
wondering if i should set up the timer and cut the light back some? want to flip asap so any advice on time from transplanting to flipping would be great. As all 5 are ready to go.

these plant were doing ok in those 90+ degree days but current is 88.9/57%h
getting a external room reading now have a dehumidifier running may be higher out side lol it's passive from a cold dark corner of a concrete room so i think if i just keep teh H down in main room shoudl be np
want to eventually go 8" cooled hood and just 6" carbon tent to outside i can always vent in a/c but this was purchased more for winter i just wan to play with it so i threw these in to see what i can get em to do before Satori seeds are germed and hydro set up is a go so hence the flower these out fast.
this tent is huge i'm sooo happy

NewGuy; That 88degree temp in the grow space is a problem unless you are injecting CO2. I see that you aren't running enclosed light fixtures so you are having to deal with extra heat from the lights. It will be very important for you to have very good ventilation set up to remove that heat as quickly as possible so that you can keep the temps in the mid 70s.
All that said, if your temp sensor is sitting directly in the light, it will read hotter than it really is in the tent. Make sure the sensor is sitting in some shade where it isn't getting hit with HPS light.

Its worthwile to be overprotective until you get used to growing in a certain type of setup. Ideals in my opinion are 75/65 air temp, 45-65%rh for both veg and flower, water temp 65-70f.
Do you have very good ventilation pulling the heat out of the top of the tent? and a good oscilating fan to make the kids dance is also very important. If you have strong exaust fan pulling air from the top of the tent, and then some openings at the bottom that will allow air to be pulled into the tent as the exaust pulls the old out, that is what you need.
I have my tents exausting out of the utility building and then there are openings in the floor of my building so that the coolest air from outside is pulled into the building, where it is then drawn through an AC and cooled further before being pulled into the tents. I use no intake fans so that I maintain negative pressure inside my building all of the time. I also have several carbon filters that filter any smell so that my neighbors don't get jealous :hubba: :cop:

ya i threw this all together in an hour so vent is on the list current is 8" inline out side of tent into a reducer 6" run 10' in 6" duct then enter two 6" inlines and out the chimney so unless the roof hip is getting work on 3 storys up i should be ok i live in a 2 family duplex with a half conjoined basment not air tight from side to side. I run a co3 ozone on a timer to freshen up the place then as i said always one dehumidifier 24/7 some times 2 if i feel the need but those temps with out an a/c will be an issue for me for sure
.
will be reoding duct work want to run the 8" just thru the new light hood i want to but open to suggestions cheap is me atm tho adn keep the 6" and get a good fan to draw with $$$ is always the issue tho

well down to 84/59 did some reworking ran a draw from out side for the night thru a 6" duct.
closed bottom passive so all main draw will be exterior night air
also bent every thing lvld the top of the canopy these things need to be flipped or it gonna be a jungle tempted to scrog them tomorrow i fimed every thing mostly twice gonna get silly or a bunch of stringing stuf fup
gratz on your 1k post Dr
I think if i set up a 8" @ ground lvl exterior passive draw at night and flower them over night from 6pm, kill the lights at 6am would use less an amount of ducted in a/c air which is only run during day downstairs anyway.
to keep it kool with lights being out and black out the windows shoudl stay ok
next 3 nights lows are 67/72/65
currently at 83/54

Well that plan did not play out well temps hovered mid to low 80's and humidity from out side and the full soak down of the new pots with hose in the tent last night got RH up to ugh think it was like 79 let me go look i killed the exterior intake and kicked the dehu up to high few hours ago
really want to switch bulbs and flip them but then was thinking of throwing the one 5gal buck one into a tote????
any input would be awesome I know the T/RH Is biggest atm im on that
