Thanks. I need to figure out a way to bring the plants up to the light because my clone is too tall to bring down lower. I tried getting them as close as I could with whatever I could find around the house. I'll figure something out by the end of the week.
Temps ran perfect, mid 80's all afternoon and low 40's for humidity.

I use a rigged system with chains and "S" hooks to raise and lower a platform. Much like the wire platform you have two sitting on. I have that identical wire setup...4 chains run down and around it and I use the "S" hooks to set it as high or as low as I need. Next time I have it set up, I'll snap a shot of it.
Edited to add: this wire platform is the one I am referring too.

Thanks, I have those S type hangers on both sides with the chains. My problem isn't being able to adjust the light, it's being able to keep it high enough from my tallest plant and at the same time bring the other one's closer. I'm gonna head out to Wal Mart tomorrow and see if I can find anything I can use to adjust the height of the pots.

I almost didn't post this cause it's ghetto as fuck. I had to do a last minute run to Dixie line to pick up a few things, including a 6" to 4" reducer, of course, they were all out. I found one that I thought would work and bought it. I did everything I could to the GL60 before having to figure out how I was going to connect the exhaust from the fan and out the top. I used the one I got from the fan exhaust to the 6" duct, my problem was connecting it from the 6" duct to the 5" exhaust flap.
After a few bowls of Jack Herer and a Tecate, this is what I came up with until I could get the correct set up, lol.

Aye. I use those for my lights too. But I also use a separate set on the little platform to raise smaller plants up to be closer to the light without moving the light.

In all honesty I actually considered driving to Home Depot just to get that one part. I even took one from the other tent but it wouldn't work. The only reason I didn't go was because I had a softball game at 6:30 and I wouldn't have been able to finish my tent and test it before the sun went down. I swear I must have thought about it for 15 minutes before I smoked a JH bowl and cracked a Tecate, next thing I know I was building that shit, hahahaha

I should have taken pics of the 4" coupler I made.. lol The 4" fan exhaust and the 4" side of the reducer were identical so I had to figure out how to make a coupler. I got some foil paper around 8" x 10". I folded the wide area twice to thicken it. Then I put a strip of duct tape across it to strengthen it. I wrapped it around the 4" exhaust of the reducer and put duct tape over it to secure it. Then I slipped it over the fan's exhaust and used my 4" hose clamp to secure them together. I put more duct tape around area's that looked like it could leak, lol. Whatever works!

haha, no worries man, it's nice to use the brain every once in a while ya know? Being unemployed sucks
Hope this is the end of my heating issues until I start flowering. I saw a few portable AC units on craigslist last night within my price range, that's probably the route I'm going to have to take if I'm going to keep the bigger tent cool

Woke up early this morning (7:30am) to figure out how to get these plants closer to the light. Once again I smoked a bowl of Jack Herer and cracked open a Tecate...
This is just another temporary set up until I can afford to do it the way I'm picturing it in my head
I just hope it prevents stretching until I'm ready to flower or clone
