Grow tent?

[OGEvilgenius]

Yes, you need a carbon filter and a fan that is powerful enough to make use of it.

Thanks! I will get what was suggested to me.

Also, What would I need to spend to get a decent intake with that? I know you said passive would be fine but it gets humid in my apartment.

 

[OGEvilgenius]

Passive is fine. Are you venting your hot air outside? If not you will probably want to run all your bathroom fans and kitchen fan 24/7. Dehumidifier might be a must as well but hard to say without seeing how you are setup.

I plan to put the exhaust through the slot under my bedroom window for an air conditioner

 

[CarpeNocturnum]

Lovely. No assembly instructions.
Happy to see I don't need to worry about an exhaust from the filter. Thanks for the advice on buying this but now....
Help please

Well you would slide the fan into the filter and metal screw it/tape. Hang the whole thing as high as you can then used the 6" duct and stick it into one the of the vents in the tent. Run it 24/7 and watch humidity. 60+ and the filter will start to work less and less until the humidity goes down.

Thanks now
Really stupid question but..What end of the fan to the filter do I connect it to?

There will be an arrow showing the air flow on the back box, also don't lose the box cover as it was the warranty date on it (edit that's not an Elicent fan so don't know if it'll show the date)

if no arrow just plug it in and see which side blows the air, that side goes away from the filter.

Also what do i do with the cloth thing? Leave it on or is that for storage?

Its there to collect dust you can leave it on of if its too close to the light take it off.

How's this looking? Fan is working very very well.
No way to hoist the filter above the lights but these are just LEDs
Think I may need to move the lights all over to the left side

THe fan and filter need to be near the ceiling because that's were the heat and stink end up..plus the humidity rises as well.
Try to getthem as high as you can. Low is not good

 

[The Hippy]

Plus led's make heat too.

 

[CarpeNocturnum]

Thanks. The cross bars are rated at 80 pounds so I gotta figure out how much everything weighs.
Zip ties the easier way to hang it up?

 

[The Hippy]

no zip ties.....they fail at times...use some light chain and chain links

Wouldn't that be noisy as fuk?
I'd use heavy rubber bungy cords so there's less vibration or ratchet straps myself

If you have the ducting to do so the fan can be installed outside of the tent (if stealth is not a worry), it is how my buddy does all of his tents (and likely how I will) to keep the weight off of the frame.

Here's the barometer I have hanging. I have the fan on medium until I start flowering , worried making a dent in the power (I'm all inclusive)
