I regret to inform you that out of basic necesity I have been forced to create a new thread for my single problem like so many of the noob growers before me. I have 2 27 watt cfl's 1 40 watt and 1 23 watt cfl. My stealth grow cab is 16" deep 24" wide and 36" tall. I have a small desk fan at the bottom for intake and a computer fan at the top on one of the sides. The temperature seems to stay around 35C or 95F. Anyways I tried asking around in other threads but it seemed like most of the experienced heads werent really there, which is understandable considiring you don't want to spen your whole time on this forum helping younglins like me. Any advice would be greatly appericated. Thanks. GUNDA

if you're looking for help from experienced growers, Newbie Central might not be the best place lol. Lots of experienced growers do frequent this forum though, and most of them are very helpful.

I'm no expert but those temps are definately high, your best bet is to get some ducting and an intake fan that pulls in fresh air from outside. Or if you're on a low budget, a friend told me you can put frozen water bottles behind your fans during the day and it will help decrease temps quite a bit.

Ive actually been attempting this while I started this thread but with frozen water bottles inside the grow room, il attempt your suggestion in a minute and thank you for your input. I also forgot to mention that there is a identical fan to the intake blowing in the room, i am waiting for my seeds at this moment so i am not doing any damage to anything but I would really like to get this problem fixed in time. I also forgot to mention that the cabinet for my grow is all metal but painted flat white for reflection on the inside

(Sorry I did not see your post there and I really thank you for it)
