I don't doubt it Dopey. I agree the lower temps put out better bud, but some people have the knack to still put out the juice at higher temps. So I disagreed with his assumption that it can't be done but agreed with the better buds @ lower temps.
I’m gonna see for myself In my garage this summer With 1 plant it should be easily 90+ everyday

It can be done you’ll need to water often.. don’t use more medium to support less waterings as you’ll want a nice refreshing (cooling drink) for the roots daily... increase airflow and mist your plant to lower leaf temps.. with enough airflow mold isnt really to worrisome.

I don't live in a great climate 18/23c ave summer temps, if put a thermometer in direct sunlight on a hot sunny day (23c) it can hit 40c.

Mine stay that warm constantly, and never had a problem. Get huge yields. Mine are under 1000w Hortilux HPS and runs 82f-84f lights on. 72f-76f at night I do have good air flow, and 3 fans running 24/7.
4x8 box, 2000 mh and 8000 btu air keeps that 80 zone sweet here.
