Totally fed up!!!

I was keeping my htc 1 thermometer a liitble bit aside from light i.e, towards the wall of my tent the reading was in range of 26 celsius but when 1 one time placed it inside pots, the reading was in range of 28 celsius, a very big differrnce, so i want to know about the ideal place to keep the thermometer and also how to lower temp., i am using evaporative cooler, if i run the cooler more humidiry increases, if i run it less temp. decreases, and a portable ac is something i cant afford, and alsob1 am ruuning 2 fans and a exhaust fan inside, fans size:- 6,9 inches, exhayst fan:- 8 inches, totally fed up what should i do?

Thermometer: usually best in the cannopy, but can be hard to read.

How to make it colder: or an ac or similar or make sure that the air you intake is colder. For a larger grow try to intake air from your basement or similar.

You can try and vent the hot air outside if that's a option...I use the ac in my house to help manage heat...I've been there before it's hard to get dialed in sometimes...I close the vents in the house so it doesn't get to cold and I completely took the vent off in the grow room so it gets all the cold air...the rest of house is perfectly fine...I have pretty good temp control doing this

What's your set up? tent or in a room? house, garage, shed etc... Like one of the previous posters said sometimes there is non cheap solution. Also remember you fans can also move around the heat(not remove) as well.

Get a Govie 3-sensor pack. You can monitor them all with your smartphone. They measure temp, RH, Dew point, and VPD, which is perfect. I have one at the pot level (no pun intended), one on the underside if the canopy, and one atop the canopy.
