Put a fan in their to circulate the air with in the room. 87 isnt too hot. Would require more attention to soil moisture.
And change intervals if on timer to exhaust space more often during lights on. And pull out the air from above the lights if can.
If can get a bigger space?

Silica boosts plants heat tolerance to. Full term i load mine up before the 100 degree heat waves come. They dont slow down or show heat stress.

Simple equation, hot air out, cool air in, the area cools.

Move hot air around. Not so much.

That's not terminally hot (though close), but it depends on your humidity. You can really get a good dose of mold with hot humid days and cool nights.

Get a bigger fan or one that moves more CFM.
I dont see a circulating fan in there. You mean the one in the box? I thought that was your fan to pull in cool air?

Lol. Thats not the correct fan! Get a can fan or squirrel fan. You can have fan on ground and run ducting to the exhaust port near the top of your tent.

Yes but your tent does not have a way to block the heat from one side of its wall to the other. It's not insulated bud.......you need to run that exhaust to a different room. And you would be better to "pull" cool air from a separate room......not the same as the one you exhaust to.

you’re having to explain this far too much.

personally by now I’ve come to the assumption he’s dumping his hot air out the top of the tent and Intaking from the Bottom of the tent Without sending the exhaust air away from the room his tent is in.

it’s a basic question that anyone who has done it would have answered correctly the first time.

I hope you get the correct answer from this guy but I’m not holding out high hopes. Lol.

Brah you could be making a mountain out of a molehill. 87 F not critical. Toasty warm yeah but not scorching. Is it an issue with the plants yet? No, then let them grow until it does. Yes, well youve been given a lot of advice. Jondamon is most wise. Its very simple to figure out.
