If those are your specs on room size its doable, but I would say a scrog is a must. If you look in the begenning of the journal in my sig, you can see how a grew 6 plants under a 400w lighina space that was 3x3x3 and got 9.75oz from it. Im sure it will have a ton of info that might help you out.

OK, so I am in the middle of several different projects, so I have set up a small 400w HPS In a remote location to see what we can do with it.
I am going to make this as low maintinence as I can, and let the nutes and the lumens speak for themselves......Stay tuned

sure the temps outside vary a lot but its well known its not good to be too hot or too cold. Its your job as a grower to give your plants the very best environment you can. Plain and simple. I guarantee if you drop your temps from 90 to 80 you will see an improvement. Just as you would if you could drop from 80 to 70. Now with co2 its a different story. 80-90 is great with co2. so if you cant get the temps down think about adding co2.
Adding CO2 requiers no air venting, and with that the temperatures will rise due to heat buildup.
In my grow at least, it gets to 48°C in the summer, and If I added CO2 and didn't vent the place it would quickly rise to 55-60°C or so. And thats not good for any plant I know, no matter the CO2.
