Well,

How about just a little more information. What type of fans are you using and how many? Can we assume that your hood isn't aircooled?

Yeah we definetly need more specs on your room before we can help you out.

All I can tell you is to get some fans if you don't have any and maybe consider an aircooling system, but that's all I can say, so post soon if you don't want your plants to die out!

Cheers

You are going to have to drill holes for an out take or have the
grow space box/closet what ever you are using open while the
light is on with fans running.

I picked up a small prtable air con unit from some company that buys old office furniture, was a shot in the dark - but they had one $70!

Might be worth a try are another alternative, just a suggestion

Good luck - Hall

Get something to extract and input air in there to regulate the air circulation. And a few fans definitely wouldnt hurt if you dont already have those.

Like the other guys have said you need to sort out your air circulation. But there's a couple of things i've done to help reduce temps a little. First off change the hours when your lights are on to the night time, say 8pm-8am assuming ur in flowering. (When it's already hot with the sun in the daytime you don't wanna be adding heat with your lights too) I'd say 600 watt is a bit too high for 3 x 3 area, change down to a 400, at least while you have heat probs. The last suggestion depends where your grow is, mine was in a bedroom and above as you'd expect was a loft, covered in insulation, you got it, take up the insulation above where your grow is. Good luck!
