Tent questions please help

[Dabhead710]

I have a 8x8 tent that I bought for a previous setup however I have changed it quite a bit as I was doing x4 27gal rdwc with 640w qb lights each container and 46x40" scrog nets so it was waaay too much plants for just my personal self even for extracts and edibles so I down sized and went with x2 27gal rdwc same scrog nets however now I am about to start building the new x3 27gal as the 3rd is control bucket that I was going to put more in the middle of the tent and the chiller to the left of it well I have all this wasted space now I call it plus co2 having to exhaust the room etc...

However I'm considering buying a new tent a 8x4 and then I could keep the control bucket and the chiller on the outside of the tent as well as with the 8x8 tent I dont have much room left in the room...so I'm trying to figure out if I should buy a 8x4 tent and i may get one with white paneling on it instead of the diamond mylar....as like jardin I believe switched to the white panels And like my superponics cabinet has the white panels too so I'm I better off with the diamond mylar or the white panels that I been seeing more of.....and building a room at this point just wont work as I would love to say fuck the tent in general and just build the room out but I cannot do that right now so gta work with what I got and I'm more than thankful I have this...

Thankyou all for your help in advance and I appreciate your time too

I have a few other questions I been wondering about with tents too...as I run hlg quantum dot boards it will be 640w per bucket...ea 27gal will have x2 plants as I have a 4 bucket rdwc veg setup...anyways I remote mounted my drivers on the outside of the tent hanging on a alu rack with airflow coming from below it..but of course you still have radiant heat so can someone help me

How the hell can I run a sealed neg pressure tent with co2 and quantum dot leds....

I will be running the lights at night and was planning on the room for the intake but I'm just real confused with venting and all that with what I have..I also have a titan Saturn 5 too it does not have fuzzy logic and I'm highly considering buying one with fuzzy logic now idk if I should get a environment controller or just a f.l co2...I also have a hyperfan 8" well I have 2 actually and planning on getting a phresh 8" carbon filters too

I have a 1/4hp eco plus chiller....I would like to be able to get away without having to get a pos portable ac as I just dont want to have to run one if I dont have too and with co2 i can have higher temps than w/o...also my window slides horizontally as well

So for my exhaust the window is about 20ft from the sidewalk and I want it as quiet as possible and inconspicuous as possible legal or not I just don't want that...so I'm thinkn about tinting the window and getting a wicker/wood blind that is fully blocked but it can breathe thru so put the blind down crack the window however I'm thinkn about building like a exhaust vent/ transmission line box so the air just doesnt go in the box and straight out it will go thru some baffles anyways to slow it down and idk if I should put a carbon filter in there too and outside it goes but I need it quiet and carbon filtered....
Also if I'm only exhausting the room to get fresh new air and replenish it will I need to have x2 carbon filters one for the room scrubbing at least when the lights are on only or just the one for the exhaust.....

I really appreciate some help with all my questions and thankyou all kindly

Heres a pic of wat my 8x8 looks like and what my setup will be when I build it pry might edit it if the 8x4 tent is truly worth it in a way I'm just not seeing thankyou....

It will help if you clarify your questions. Very confusing to determine exactly what you are asking.

Sorry my post Is a bit long but I have given enough info as I have quite a few different questions that I explained in my post ...apologize you would have to read the post and answer what you can....

Like should I switch from a 8x8 to a 8x4 with my new setup since I have downsized....

And have quiet a few questions about co2 and sealed with qbs like I put in my orig post.

Thanks

If you want to reclaim some of your actual room then yes switch to an 8x4 tent. But you do not want to be running more than 2 of your 640w lighting set ups in a 8x4.
As for sealing a tent, you cant. That's why people usually don't run co2 in tents.

End of the day, you said you don't need like that much weed.. An 8x4 will be more weed than you can smoke..
Why run more light/power/co2 than needed.
I don't run co2 and get great results, if you insist on running co2 then build a sealed room for it and be prepared to cool that room with AC.
I don't see the point if its for your own personal smoke.

I missed some of your info in that long post.
If your running less wattage you will have less heat to deal with and less cause for co2 because temps will be in lower range.
If you extract and exchange air properly then you just use one extraction fan with one filter.

Ya sorry I know the post is kinda long and all over the place...however Its all tent related which is why I just put it all in one post...

Now me downsizing to the 8x4 I dont smoke flower I make extracts rosin and edibles with my harvest and I am disabled with chronic pain and I use more than most that's for sure...and I would hope to have some leftover from previous harvest....now my lighting I have x2 320xl per 27gal and I will be keeping it at that...
I know you cannot seal a tent 100% like a sealed room can be but I've seen it done and its staying sealed enough to work and be effective and not just exhausting while your running co2 and wasting it completely...
I may have to run no co2 and I know its not a must have but it does help however just not sure if it's even feasible at this point running a tent...

Also if I down size the tent the tent would be smaller of course and would have more heat over the 8x8 but exhausting it properly it shouldn't be a issue....

I dont have questions running no co2 just was curious on if I can in a tent with my setup as running sealed rooms with QB leds over hps is a bit trickier well w/o ac anyways and all that....
Thanks

Respectfully, I think a major source of the confusion is the fact that you don't use periods at all when you write, so it's all one long sentence. That makes it very difficult for people to categorize and extrapolate what you are trying to say. Not so much in this last post, but the initial post...wow.

Only read some of your post man, but i have run co2 in a tent with negative pressure. Its not the most viable way of doing it as its not completely sealed, but it works. I ran a small extraction fan/carbon filter set up in a 2mx2mx2m tent and partially closed the intake port of the tent. I wanted to slightly see the tent walls vacuum in. Worked a treat. i used roughly double the lpg i would of in a selaed room. I pulled in about 3 pounds off memory so i wasnt concerned about the extra $125 in lpg. And keep as much gear on the outside of the tent if you can. Utilise the rods as much as possible. eg. Hang fans, dont use free standing fans.
