k so i went into this with a close friend 3 yrs ago. He was extremely experienced and had been doing it many yrs. I on the other hand had no clue. For the first crop he did it all. The second and third he took care of them from cuttings thru the harvest stage into week 5+ where i took over and he gave me a list of foods, measurements, frequency etc. Now 2 yrs after a fall out ive set up shop. (Blue cheese) i got the babies a week ago and now 8 days in after positive growth for the first 6 days im getting a little concerned. I replanted into 15 ltr pots 48 hrs ago the root systems were great. Now ive put all 4 of my 600 watt lights on my cheap mercury based thermometre was reading at 96 farenheit. Ive turned two iff and today been out n bought an air conditioner. Its still reading the same temp despite the air conditioner constantly spewing out cold air for the last 2.5 hours. One maybe two leaves on a few of the plants have either gone yellow at the tip or have the odd yellow spot on. Would anybody suggest this is a result of the heat, a lack of food or a bit of both? Im due to start a feed of samurai canna A and B in the morning and was considering adding rhizotonic again with the A and B. Any tips plz ive invested my last £1200 into this whole thing. HELP

Where does your a.c. exhaust? Are your hoods air cooled? Sounds like you might need more air circulation too. 96 with 4 600s seems high, I used to run 3 1000s and a 600 in a 22x12 room with no a.c., just the carbon filter sucking hot air out and pulling in cooler air from the rest of the house worst I ever got was like 90-91. Your a.c. should exhaust out of your room if you don't it's basically wasted energy.

Where does the AC vent to?

Is there a possibility of pointing a few fans at your lights?

Is there a possibility of pointing a fan at where the light is shining?

Do you have pots or other materials that can absorb light? I found that when i took out my black bucket that a fan was sitting on, it was very hot!
