If I were to set up two cool tubes with 1 fan and a 2-1 Y splitter theory says I would lose 50% of the air drawn through each hood right .. but is there any loss from throttling at the Y ? Im afraid efficiency would drop .. would I be better running a seperate fan for each hood then join the Y direct to the carbon filter and have no inlet fan only two exaughst and use the suction formed for fresh air ? Just throwing around ideas before I get to far ahead and do it

If you have to use cool tubes just duct them in series no need for a splitter

im no expert but isent chiken red meat its whote when its kiiked but red mat ai t red whe ints cooked
Nah definitely white meat. Fast twitch muscle fibres are white meat (pretty much all highly strung animals and most sea creatures), slow twitch is red meat (slow moving fuckers like cows).

Fun fact: black dudes are often faster runners but slower swimmers because of the difference in muscle type - higher percentage of fast twitch fibres - plus often heavier bones which doesn't help (swimming is an enduro activity rather then an explosive one like sprinting). There's always exceptions but that's the case in the main

They could be getting cooked up by temps or too much light or both. Or they could just be putting themselves out of their misery :D

Unfortunately my tent wont allow for that .. can only put two 600s side byside or else thats definately how I would go they are around 700ish long but only around 500 wide .. my tent is 1.2x1.2

1200 watts in a 1.2 is a bit. I'd never be able to keep the fucker cool enough. If you can get away with it why not eh?
I havent yet tried with the plants in there .. only my seedlings .. temps running between 27 at night and 36 during the day I have the bonus of having one of those huge ass roof top evaporation units that I can switch on and blow the hot air out if need be but ive got tge timer set on 18 on 4 off during the hottest part of the day and the days should only get cooler from here on in so touch wood everything should be good and thats with 1 fan for exaughst and one for intake .. all from the same room ... im yet to duct the exaughst into my roof

2 x 600watters in 1.2 squares ? That’s a bit over the top even if you were going to run co2 it would be too much
