You need a 175 cfm inline fan to exhaust your heat.

Well if u are in a tent u should have the holes thier for a fan. You can get a duct booster fan for like 25 bucks and use that to vent out. You also need fresh cool air to bring in.

Yes they will grow but slow and spindly. Your buds will be loose and airy. At that temp I would suggest supplementing with co2 depending upon how quickly your room exhausts. For co2 to be utilized the air must stay within the area for 15 minutes.

Yea i had same problem with my setup. Exact same temps. Would have been hotter actually. I installed one exhaust fan linked to my 400w hid light. I also hung a tower fan from the top of my secret jardin grow tent using the support bars. The best thing i ever did was install an lg window unit. All problems resolved. Room temp is constant 75 in day 70 at night. RM is 60-65% consistenly with no humidifier or dehumidifier. Good luck and hope everything works out for you buddy.
Ambient temps is the other half of the equation with proper exhaust power.

an air conditioner would do it
Seeing all your trees looking awesome is getting me excited to do a grow where i know what im doing a little bit more. I just got these clones of 4th of July to do my second grow im going to LST and scrog them. My box is 3 'x 2' x 4'8", I was wondering if I could have gotten away with 6 plants with this size box?

Plants have been on 12/12 for 4 weeks. Same thing here. Mid 90s for a couple weeks. Last few days the room hit 102. All is doing great. I would think if temps were 95-100 at harvest time, the buds would be a little fluffy.
Praying for a cool down.

Yeppar I am going to take a picture in about an hour and show you what the high hits every day in there at 94 right now with 2 ac's running. Won't have this issue in the new room but figured i'd post it up since everyone thinks they have to keep their room at 70 pure non-sense.And high low your not the only one to hit the 100 mark.
