Question on VEG tub Temp

[quarteroy]

So i just built a veg tub with about 132 watts and seems to be getting a bit hot i have some vent will put more in. My question is for veg with the soda bottle co2 method what would be the maximum temp i should let the tub get. my house usually sits between 78-81 in the summer its arizona and thats normal inside temp in the summer. so can i let it get up to 87 or 88? with this set up or am i going to run into problems?

I'm not clear on your 'tub' description ... if soil, your temps in the 80s will be OK (nice if it was a bit cooler, but 80s ain't too bad) ... if it's a hydroponic 'tub', it's a bit too warm (try for 70-75), but not enough to justify a high-dollar 'cooler setup' ... hope that helps, good growing :thumbsup:

Its a soil veg tub they will be there thru their veg stage then moved to the flowering cab.

my veg box runs as hot as 85F and the plants don't seem to mind, but 78F is optimum.

someone once told me that if you can get it to run within 5 degrees of your house temp then all is good.

hope this helps.
