How hot is to hot ?

You are just making anecdotal assumptions.

Do some reading on what a phenotype is. The environment controls the genetic expression of the plant. Some plants like warmer temps some like cooler, some like more nutrients some like less, and the environment around the plants will change and impact those characteristics.

It really is not as simple as the same plant will be better in cooler conditions.
there's no practical way to get an amount of fresh air in to the tent that would have remedied those extreme 32C+ temps that is for sure. no strain or pheno made it out of the tent with many cannabinoids either. it's not a mystery that such extreme heat did that

again, my experience only corroborates what the bugbee team at utah state have found in their enclosed grow chamber temperature experiments

if i happened to time my flowering period until temps get consistently below 83f like you then this would not be the case obviously

Yep if you were up to 90 with no way to improve your airflow or environment I'm sure that was the issue. I never debated that. But that is a you issue, not a plant issue. You couldn't provide what the plant needed and so it suffered from the excess heat. If those plants were given the CO2 and nutrients they needed they could have still flourished.

not in flower they wouldn't, not at that scale of high temps vs lack of fresh air. you would need to take a wall or two out to get the needed air flow at that point to get anything with enough cannabinoids. basically just move the plants outside into the hot weather with constant full grow space air exchange and out of the hid oven

all of the posts saying ' hey man, fire weed is grown around the world in super hot temps' are just saying outdoors

btw.... i am describing my noobie error, something that no grower who knows about growing would ever try

to grow and flower with mh in a tent in a hot summer in an apartment with no air conditioning

i'm trying to say, it was nuclear level climate extreme. it was also my first time experiencing weed that was truly off putting as well. the effect on the terpenes on all plants was just weird and gross

case in point the clone that also grew outside. the outside version was not stinky at all, very sweet and mild. all weed from the tent was just off. the tent version of the outdoor reeked of skunk that could not be hidden, crazy loud, but kind of nauseating
