I do have an ac running in an adjoining room but it really only keeps things tolerable in the room that the tent is in... but canopy temp is consistently the same as ambient room temp which is normally 79-80 degrees... I know I'd be cursing right now if I had the HID's running~

im sure the heat is comparable to T5 heat not much heat in one spot(enough to make you not want to touch the bulbs, but i got stoner fingers it takes alot to burn me) but enough heat spread out over an area to dissipate easily. im sure if your turned off the ventilation things wiill warm up, really wish you would run that test for me just for knowledge's sake...

I will Poly.... today wouldnt be the best day to do it because it's actually pretty cool today.... you just want me to cut the inline fan for like an hour right??? I will def do that for you~

cant you run a heat test after the grow??

awwww what the hell.... let's do this...lol!! just snapped this pic and cut the exhaust fan.... let's see what happens in a half hour or so...

no 3 hours would be better that how long between my exhaust cycles when i running co2.

it can wait till later though like when the plant is out, or if you feel like putting it in a trash bag for 3 hours during its dark period.

Looking very promising - great work so far and thanks for keeping all the updates comin'

Best of luck

I'm home tonight and it's light out for her in an hour and 20 mins... so I'll snap a pic before I zip up the tent... that'll give you about a 90 minute test...lol~

okay cool, so starting temp was 77 and a 3 hours test take a couple temp reading in between that time too.

ty wondrboy.... feeling really good about things so far!!! definitely will be my "summer" light... might NEED some HID's in the winter to keep temps up tho... nice to have options!

not a big deal... I know it's not going to get too hot...lol... I'm telling ya... this sucker runs cool! it's moved up a bit... but I'll keep the suspense for the next pic update

well... it's going to be more like 90 minutes.... but it already has seemed to have leveled off... stay tuned lol~

well.... it reached just shy of 84F.... but this is where she was just before lights out... I have to admit it went higher than I expected... but with no exhaust I guess that only makes sense

definitly comparable heat wise to a t5 of slightly more wattage is what im seeing regardless useful info and decent temps too.

glad you reminded me to do it Poly.... this is after all hopefully going to provide some useful info for anyone who gives a shit...lol~

I guess it warrants mentioning the room was about 78 degrees...(according to the thermostat...the fact that the tent was a degree cooler suggests one of them was slightly inaccurate) prob cooled a degree or two when the sun went down... just a guess... but that would explain the drop at the end I suppose

hey did you see our mushroom prodigy(atidd11) got busted? sucks he should have been more low key.
