Can you say closet grow.

I'll take a look at some exhaust fans, thanks seed. Sticky there are some cracks which air/light can seep through.

if your box has light leaks you will have major problems such as super slow flowering, plants reverting back to vegg when they are supposed to be flowering, and of course hermies. YOU MUST seal all light leaks. the dark cycle needs to be COMPLETELY DARK with NO INTERUPTIONS.

try home depot and ebay for exhaust fans that's where i got mine.

well light can leak out.. no light leaks in when its dark in there, is that alright?

Dude, if light can leak out, it can leak in.

[justaseed]

if it gets out it can get in. simple logic!

not if the box is in a closet.... My cab is not 100% light leak proof, but during the night time cycel, it's in a closet. no light at all...

Exactly what MisterSource says, its a pitch black closet... but with 500watts of light going.. yea some light gets out. Does it even matter if some light leaks out during the veg stage anyway.. you made it seem like its only important to be pitch black when we go 12/12.

^^^ Everything we say is just suggestions, you can do as you please.

Light proof, yes, necessary for 12/12... but don't get pissed if you end up with hermies or re-veging non-flowering plants...

But carry on! Let's see how it goes...

[justaseed]

if its in a closet and the dark cycle is completely dark then you have no worries. sorry, it just sounded funny the way you posted...light gets out but not in. i should have figured the box was in a closet or something. and it is still important for the dark cycle to not have interuptions even in veg. much more so in flower though!

Alright no problems just wanted to clear that up... back to temperature controls, anymore suggestions for those who have had similar problems in the past... these temperatures are goin up and down from 81-96.. usually about 91. Tommorrow we're going to install an exhaust fan hopefully taking it down 6 degrees or so.
