    your attic is made to match the ambient outdoor temps so it doesnt rot your roof + it absorbs heat from the shingles. its only gonna get hotter as the summer goes on. you need a big( very high cfm) fan up there or find a better spot.

    Its best if you keep all your questions in one thread. But the best growing temp for indoors is 75 degrees. At 92 degrees in an inclosed environment like an attic, I can almost guarantee you will get root rot and your plants will grow very slow.

    Its going to smell no matter what you do. You have to be constantly pumping fresh air in and stale air out. Something that might help is a charcoal filter on the air thats coming out of the tent. Ive heard it can remove the smell but Ive never tried it and I cant guarantee it will work.
