I can not agree more....chasing the temp will drive you crazy....go for a comfortable range and be done with it.....IMHO
is 84*F too hot in my tent?

Agreed. I have put my plants on the deck recently in 60F air temps where the thermometer exposed to sun ends pushing 90 if there is not a breeze. Grown outdoors for 30+ years and my plants have ranged from 30's in the morning to 80ish in the afternoon, thousands of times. Thinking you need to keep the temp swing within 15 degrees or You're Gonna Get the Hermies is ridiculous.
Just my opinion but also my experience.

yep. I go by the temp outside and the range is all over. Between 30-110f. Ive read over and over that revegging and stress and all that shit will hermie my plant. I have yet to come across a hermie in my garden. I have came across males, which of course were trashed right away, but my fuckin around and sometimes neglect have never ended me up with a hermie.
Right on AIM!.

Thanks for all the input guys, I believe I am over thinking the temps at the moment. When summer is in full swing I'm sure I'll have to really worry then. To clarify where the temps are taken and the differences here's a pic.
The temp in red is taken directly under the light at plant level, my thermometer is also black which might be making it read high.
The temp in blue is taken in the corner, not directly under the light but still at plant level.
The yellow is taken outside the tent near one of the passive intakes.
Should I consider the blue temp to be the most accurate vs. the red?

What do you guys feel is more important during flowering. Drop in day and night temps or having a lower temp. I too run around 80/85 and get down to 70/75 at night. I see some will have dark period during day to keep it cooler but then are running a more constant 75 the whole time. Maybe I am over thinking it?

if you get another fan and run an intake from the window your temps will drop a grip. frresh air.
