I myself reside one state over from you and I have used a number of ideas from your grow on my own setup. I understand the heat problem, really hard to beat.
I have two grow boxes, one for veg. and one for flowering. The veg. box is 4x8 by 6' high, two T5 4foot long, 4 bulb fixtures with additional CFL's.
My flowering box has two 300 watt CFL's plus another 400 watt's additional CFL's. Grow box is total 42,000 lumens plus. Flowering box is about 45,000 lumens.
My heat problems stem from the fact that both boxes are in an out building, AC is available, but no automatic way to disapate heat other than turning on the AC once a day for a couple of hours....my problem right now is that I draw too much power when everything is running and end up tripping the breaker. Right now, I cannot fix the situation for the better. I will be glad when this heat spell breaks...
Well, I just wanted to introduce myself to you to say good work and take care. Your efforts to help educate with your grow is appreciated...
Keep up the good work!
