I have a AC in my grow room so that helps ALOT..
What you need is some fans, like 3 or 4 mabey,
and a lil self heater or wtvr. Just experiment changin
the temps an stuff, needs to be temps-> 70-80 humid-> 40-50%
Pics help alot too

i got a 1 foot oscillating fan and a 2 foot box fan in there i think i need an exhaust fan but idk where to put the exhaust if that window is closed but i need to figure something out cuz the room is just a little too hot and not humid enough

are you using HID lights or CFLs?

i got a 400W metal halide goin right now and im going to add a CFl or 2 for the sides when they get a little bigger

Might need to look into a cheep humidifier or DE-humidifier.

i got a humidifier going in there without that thing my humidity doesn't even register on the hygrometer

I grow in a small area of a walk in closet, using 14 CFLS, a mix of 65, 85 and 105 wat bulbs. They get very warm, but not very hot. The closet can get up to 80 degrees without a fan. I can easliy keep it 75 degrees all the time, summer and Winter by using the central air and heat. I us tow tanks, 6 cups each for Hydro growing.
I spray my plants and room with a fine mist of water twice a day until I go to 12/12.
I lay saucers of water around and wet rags too, close to the plants to increase humidity. I let water puddle on top of my tanks too. I never get too high of a humidy, but I do get too low.

man i came home today and that shit was at like 86........i need a little AC i guess and just keep at it with the humidifier and do the water thing........you can get a little AC that doesn't take too much power right?

Winter time is coming soon, and that might help out some. I've learned I do better growing in my winter, with the central heat on, than I do in the summer with the air conditioner on.
