Hola LilBush06, Temp should stay in the 70's with good air circulation. HPS Puts off more heat and should be at least 18' -24' from the plant so it don't burn your babys. temp isnt the biggest priority, light is and the hps with mh conversion will bring you a great crop, along with water, nutes and talk to or blow on your plants (Gives them c02)
70 to 85 is an ideal temperature how ever it is not uncommon for spikes to be see of up to 100 degrees for over an hour and the plants still produce great bud.
HPS are hotter, but they already said it ;)
Just aggreeing
1000 HPS
6-12 inches from canopy....
Good ventilation
= monster buds.... thick, dense
and now you knowM
Once I get my vented hood hooked up. I'll lower my light to about 1 1/2 feet.Maybe 1 foot,we'll see. My temps go up to about 95 for about an hour or two.Most of the day it's around 80 but for a few hot hours it goes up.
My plants are loving it. And it seems they like a little heat. It makes them grow faster. But I also have some CO2 flowing in there. So with enough co2 and nutes the heat just speeds things up.
