Hello all, I am in need of some advice.
I am growing in my tent for the first time and am having some serious heat issues. I would consider my ventilation to be more than adequate,a 400 CFM inline fan venting through the attic and dumping outside.
I have a single panel open to allow for passive intake. (This panel has a fan blowing from the outside pulling air from the closet.) A interior fan to move air around the tent as well. I leave the closet door open so the tent can draw in fresh air from the adjacent room which stays at 72 F. I also have tried to drive the humidity up using the sponge method, by no luck their either. My humidity never really breaches 40% and will typically stay much lower.
With all of this I am still reaching temperatures FAR outside the acceptable rage, up to 95 F.
What can I do?![Hit Wall :wall: :wall:](/styles/smilies/wall.gif)
I am only using 4, 23W CFL's to veg currently how am I ever going to flower with my 43 watt CFL's?!?
I have recently switched from 24 hours of light to 18/6 so the lights stay off during the hottest part of the day.
Here are some pictures showing my setup.

Any suggestions would be very appreciated, If I can't get temperatures down this is going to get really disappointing very soon.
