64f lights out is good for most strains. Keeping in mind that different strains have different preferences, you want between 62 and 72 F lights off, 68 to 77 F lights on, with catastrophic damage possible for most strains above 85F. (Keeping roots cool and/or adding CO2 can increase the upper limit, buts that's advanced material I'm just starting to play with, I'll let others do the talking there).

OK one step at a time DR let's get air exchange sorted out and we will get you through everything else lol. Here's the pics for you. Keep in mind I'm legal to grow so I have no use for a scrubber (filter) also I have my duct work actually heating my room upstairs. I ripped out the ducting from my furnace that heats my room so I can run this to my room heating it and also smelling awesome at all times lmao

After looking at those numbers I think I am fighting myself more that what I have. Will have to do a couple more tests, but think I can stay within those ranges If I stop fighting myself.

Lol its a Neiderman fan. They are made somewhere in Europe I can't remember where but I know somewhere there. Possible Sweeden. If you google it you will see how powerful it is. Not to mention its industrial so it will last a long time .It is a 5 inch fan which is good if you don't need a filter because they are not a common size. 5 is an odd number lol. I had made a 5 to 4 inch flange and had a filter on it but no point. I don't care about smell lmao. It also works awesome to heat my room. So in essence I'm saving heat from the furnace to go elsewhere in my house while still providing heat in my room. Pretty cool eh?

After we get the heat under control I can show him how to do a DIY co2 generator old school lol and yes it really does work
Yeah, smell is a big factor where I am right now. It's very remote and I'm mostly off by myself, not in the camp housing, lucky enough to get a house with a real basement and a deck/yard that comes with the workshop (rank and seniority have their privileges), but still have to keep up appearances and do get the odd private customer from the Rez now and then. Wouldn't do for the company to hear of an odor complaint.

Could you imagine what you could do with all the goodies you can get your hands on over there? Lol
Yeah, when my buddy (only person here I trust) helped me unpack my stuff from the shipping pod, he didn't bat an eye at the lights or filter, but he was curious about all the sugar, yeast, flasks, stoppers and tubing
It wouldn't be Tweed/Canopy's million square foot greenhouse, but it wouldn't be no 10 plants neither.

well Im feeling a bit stupid now that I think about it.. its like trying to titrate a small sample vs a large one. Balance the room temp and then life will be easy to balance the tent...
Told him it was for moonshine since we're forced dry cause we're right by a dry Rez. He didn't buy it, until I reminded him of the bit in the matrix. "It's good for degreasing engines, and killing brain cells!"

Lmao me either if I had goodies
Yup. Just remember, no matter what you do with your dumped waste heat, do it away from your intake. Convection is your ally, cold air in low will tend to stay low, warm air out up will encourage any lower warm air to replace it, which will intake more cool air, repeat ad infinitum.

You are not stupid DR. You think we haven't had the same problems when we first started our journeys? I among many other growers happen to remember having same issues you do and many more but you are also in great hands here let me assure you on that.
Yup. Every bit of knowledge I have comes as a result of a mistake or failure, or from standing on the shoulders of giants. Any grower who says they've never fucked up is either lying about it or lying about being a grower entirely.
