Thanks man.

I reconfigured the fan to suck air and blow out a larger vent hole at the top back of the cab and I'll be looking at new avg temps today.

I moved the plants slightly closer to the light as well.

I also added another light via a small lamp that will have to do for now, I will have to muck around with ballasts (if thats what theyre called) to get it situated out of the way once they start to put on some girth/height.

So total lightage is 4x 100w equiv CFLs. For what should end up being 1-2 plants.

You mentioned doing 12/12 early and doing LST. Will there be a problem if I LST too early so it hasnt had a chance to grow in LST when it starts flowering? I was planning on doing LST after 3rd set of leaves then putting it into flower not too long after that. Would this work?
