Heat Lights? Fan?

So in my groom room their is no ac and it was 90 out today so you can imagine how hot the room gets. so i have 205 watts of cfl's and a 65 watt flouro the lights are surronding the plants and the plants were low stressed trained so i sit aluminum foil over and all around the lights to reflect all light on plants so its kinda like theirs a house of aluminum foil over plants im guessing the lights make it hotter for the plants then the all ready hot grow room is. so im in my last week or two of flowering so for the best buds growth should i be getting as much light to plants as possible by using the aluminum foil or should i take the aluminum foil off and let a fan blow around plants to keep heat down what would be better for last weeks before harvest

always go for the most light available. give them space to breath, why are you using FOIL??? paint white instead, aluminium foil concentrates light in small spaces and can burn u plant, also not even distribution of light and heat, ,paint it all white mate..

Get the fan in there and remove the foil.
It will mess your plant.
Like Elenor says painting white is the way.

Mylar is better than paint if you got a few extra bucks. If not I agree paint is much better than the foil.

i used foil during the vegitation of my babies...it worked great. When i moved them into the flowering room..that is a different story. If you use foil under a 400 watt sodium..the wrinkles of the foil will magnify rays to your plant and burn them. kinda like when you hold a magnifying glass under the rays of sun in the summer to burn things. so foil is no option...but for vegitation...foil worked great for me. Florecents dont get too hot.

A 25 foot roll of mylar cost you about $15. Foil sucks. Love your plants and they will love you back.

yea i been using foil the whole flowering stage i lay it over my 68 watt cfls so the light reflects all down on plants i dont think it burns them because thier cfl's but i no it makes it hotter right now i just been using foil half the time and taking the foil off and letting fan blow towards them the other half of day
