you SEEM TO have an ISSUE CONTrolling the VOLUME OF YOUR VOICE!!!!!!!!!!

setup sounds good,maybe a little overkill for a 4x4. 8 inch exhaust fan? whats its cfm rating? you want 105 cfm max. if you move way more air than u need to youll not oonly waste money but be fighting to keep temp and rh optimal.

good luck!

Thanks for ur in put @Feracon when u say over kill are u refering to all the lights????
i keep readin the more lights tha more bud i already tested it it don't get over 80 in tha tent
maybe because it's a cold room
i believe tha cfm is 720 i have an fan controller for it tho i guess i'll just keep it on low

ya your lights and your fan. the lights actual par output and spectrum is what matters though.

im assuming your massive fan is AC, your fan controller may not scale the speed the way you think. Throttling AC fans properly is expensive and complicated.

keep those lights up high to start and feel things out, esp with the seedlings. Im sure your grow will go fine.

The fuck is up with the lights all over the joint bro? You should make a frame to hold all those cfls. Looks hectic in there.

Good too see you in the game though. And welcome to RIU.

I got lucky and pulled off a great harvest my first hydro grow but have not had it that easy since ( I only went hydro cause pest issues were massive in my outdoor area & are still a problems indoors but a bit more controllable) ( havnt had mites indoors yet *touch wood*) , I tried with fan controllers and gave up I just found that simpler is better , start with the basics and add to it as you get the rest down pat

If your taking your temperature readings from the bottom of the tent just remember heat rises lol I'd take a reading from the top as well as bottom and work out the average :) I would also make a square frame slightly smaller then the inside of your tent , hang this and attach the cfls around it and use as side lighting .
