New Grower First Grow So Let's See How I Do

Your tower fan is blowing around the air ABOVE the lights around and can cause this, even with a vent fan... try using something like a clip on oscillating fan that can blow below the lights and let their heat just rise and get sucked out... keep all the bottom screens open too to let lots of fresh air in... in my humble opinion of course. ;)

I just saw the fan on the floor... raise it up a little and just use that... unless your tent is wicked dry (less than 40% RH), lack of humidity should not be an issue... Temps around 82 are ok... imho
 
I agree w/ @Rhyce Saroni . open the bottom vents for a passive air intke. Also, Before i sold it, my mars hydro 600w raised my tent temp to ridiculous heights . 97F sometimes. it is a smaller space then yours and inside of a closet but still unacceptable. You may not be at the leisure but get better lights bro. With the LED market still kinda being the "new" technology for growers, trust me when I say, you get what you pay for. After the research ive done as far as par, mogouels?? i cant think of the word right now but those two are the measures you wanna know unlike wattage which Mars hydro advertises. The light I picked up even has youtube videos demonstrating the difference between top brand leds. My 150w 130 total wattage led outshines the 600w I had which was 284 total wattage across the board. Not only is the par two times higher, my height has not went above 76F and thats because it's hot where i am. On cold days it has been 68F. I will be adding another one on my next grow because I wanna try DWC. Without getting too far off into a rant, since you have the space. Look up "swamp cooler". People use it to keep the temps down. Havent used it, just heard it through the grapevine. Also, If you go on ebay, look up oscillating fans and search by lowest cost. The cheapest one you see, if you buy multiple ones, ask the seller for a deal. I did, shaved off a few dollars. Keep me posted. As always, good vibes brudduh:pass:

Without the humidifier my RH won't go above mid 20's...I didn't think that was good so that's why I added that. Very dry where I am obviously. I have 3 small 6" clip on fans now but I'll raise the one and see what happens. Thanks for the input!!

I have 2 bottom vents open and I'll open the other today. When I can get the funds what light do you recommend? PM me if you don't wanna start a flame war on here - I totally understand that. Sometimes to get started you get what you can afford and maybe not top of the line but if it will make a huge difference then I'll start to save up for it maybe for next grow.
Looks like the last day or so it has stayed around 82 as a high so I think I'm ok but if I can get it to 80 I'll be thrilled!
Thanks for the info and for taking the time to try to help!!

82 is optimal imho...
 
Here are the girls as of this morning. Looks like some tip burn on Stubby...doesn't appear too bad but if anyone has any ideas I'd appreciate it. No sense in waiting til it's too bad if I even need to worry about it.
