Hey there I've got a 2x2x2 metre tent with 4 goldstar cool shade lamps, 1 over each square metre. At the moment they're 600s.
I've got a 6" filter and 6" rvk intake pulling in cool air from my loft.
I'm only running 3 lights at the moment and my temps are still in the high 80s and my RH is down around 20.
Would I be better going down to 400s or getting a bigger intake? Not sure what to do so any ideas would be much appreciated. Thanks.
 
As long as you can keep your temps around 80 to 85 then you could get a humidifier to bring your humidity IP. But like Mammy said if your not running a exhaust fan then I would add one and also a humidifier.

These guys got ya covered my only input is try to get the hot exhaust away from the intake air as well. To keep it as cool as possible
 
Are you running a exhaust fan out of the tent?
Yeas mate I've got a 6" rvk intake and another 6" rvk exhaust sucking the hot air through my lights and out of the tent. It's connected to my filter as well. Thanks

Yep my intake is coming straight from my loft and my exhaust is being taken into another room. The air coming into the tent is cold as well. Cheers mate
 
I would defo increase ventilation before decreasing lighting. Plants like light:cheers:
