Id get the temps down to around 80-85 with the light on, lower temps when the light is turned off. you can control heat with fans. In the summer I also use a AC to lower the temps due to super hot temps in my room.

all though in my opinion 95 is way to hot, I think people over emphasize the whole 78 degrees is perfect. every strain is different, some equatorial strains grow in 120 degrees. I think cannabis can be grown in high temps but only if CO2 is being given to the plants. I typically try not to go over 80 degrees, but on a really hot day if i hit 82 i dont worry about it. I feel the plants gonna let you know whats up antway just feel them out. Peace

I can say from my experince that after 85 degrees in veg my leafs curled and try to protect themselfs. It was bad. but it got 90 in Flower room and they liked it. I try not to to let it go beyond 80 and no less than 60

I was asking these same questions a week or 2 ago. My room was getting up to 90+. It was fine for a while but then it started getting some serious heat stress and i had to spend some time/money getting it down to 80-85 with lights on. Plant is in veg btw. Still a little droopy but its looking much better with the lower temps

Not true... a 1000W light covers around a 4'x4' area perfectly, in fact he could add more light. Keep the 1000W light and buy pend your money to cool your space.

Here is the link to understand what light covers what...

This isn't written in stone or anything, but a general guideline.
