sleeping in the same room as tent health question

[NinjaMaster]

i grow in my bedroom as well.
80cmx80cm tent. no filters.
the sound of the fans puts me to sleep at night. its lovely and my room always smells so dank.

i have my 4x4 tent in my bedroom right up against my window to exhaust it out the window somewhat and yea it's healthy only thing bad about it is the damn fan is loud and i have to crank mine up at max speed. my fan is only 4" i should upgrade it probably to a 6" at least or 8" but other then the noise of the fan i don't really have any major issues that solely can be blamed on the tent. humidity sure but i live in Hawaii it's ALWAYS humid here only time i really feel it is when i open up the tent you can feel the hot air but that was back when i didn't vent it out as much now i vent it out as much as i can got everything wide open besides the doors.

biggest concern would be doing your measurements making sure everything fits in your room and where you plan to leave it and access it and if your happy with your bedroom layout. i had the hardest time doing mine due to my 55gal aquarium and ceiling fan but since i really don't care what my room looks like i make it work my layout is decent kind of tight but i have to keep a lot of my gardening shit in my room because my grandpa throws my gardening shit away if i leave it in the garage just my vermicompost going on.

i don't exhaust my tent into my room cause if i did it would be much hotter despite the outside air is cooler then inside plus i only have 1 fan setup. i'd literally need to run an AC to properly drop temps for growing needs but other then that you get used to it. i like the noise tbh cause it helps me sleep at night i tend to keep my computer running all night with something on youtube since i don't have cable in my room

i used to grow in my bedroom closet before i got the tent but without a fan. that was kind of hell because the lights is just shining in my face all the time and i didn't really have a exhaust i used a air purifier for air circulation and that thing is just as loud as my AC infinity

Have a question about venting to outside. Does the negative pressure doing that causes make your central a/c unit cooling your home work noticeably harder? Thinking about outside venting myself.

I can't see where it would work any harder than venting the hot air in to your house.

Its generally easier for your a/c to cool a sealed room than it would in a room with a constant exhaust, if your room has negitive pressure with a split than it for sure will make your unit work harder due to the room pulling more air than it recieves.

 

[Damtrucker]

Yea, that's why I was wondering, because you're exhausting 200+ cfm of cooled air outside while house fights to replenish and cool it.

I'm here to learn. Please explain how venting air that could be lets say 120° and replacing it with 90° air from outside of the home would be harder on the AC than dumping the 120° air back in to the home and try to cool it.

Tinnitus is real.

If the room air is 120f than your a/c isn't doing its job, its that simple. Could be undersized or defective, either way venting wouldn't be the solution.

I grew in a 10x10 room for two years with a 1000w HPS and never had an issue keeping 65-75f with a 10a/120v window unit.

I didn't say the room air was 120°. I said if you were exhausting 120° air. My exhaust runs through mt HID light making my air exhausted from my tent very warm. Anyway, I talked to a friend in the heating and cooling biz and it all depends on your tent temp/humidity and the outside air/temp that will be brought in to replace the exhausted air. When he ran my numbers I'm better off venting outside.

Sealed hoods work great, im not sure of your opening question? You either need an a/c or you dont and if you do, seal it up.

I ran in my room for two years without issue. I was able to almost eliminate the noise by using a vortex s-600 fan.View attachment 4356904

This was my second ever grow.. poor girls...i've learned so much from this site since then.

My exhaust fan vents into my bedroom. I like getting filtered O2 rich air in my living space. Like Kul...I solved the noise issue with fan selection. I use a Panasonic whisperline.

I wish we could scatter weed plants around like house plants. I have a closet in my bedroom but no way to exhaust it.

Tinnitus is real.

Bilateral hearing aids. Years of blowing off noise back then. Playing in a band. Guns. Straight pipes on bikes. People curse government but most people wouldn’t be any more aware now than we were then were it not for OSHA. I worked in a lot of shops and hearing protection and breathing apparatus was never around. Safety glasses only so you didn’t miss work from an injury.

 

[NinjaMaster]

I have tinnitus. from playing in a band.
at times i forgot my ear plugs because i was nervous to get on stage.
Growing in my bedroom does not compare in the least to the noise a band makes.

Hey Deadhead,
Just vent the exhaust into your bedroom. That room I assume has a door and windows. Plenty of air exchange options...at least for a small grow. Done that several times over the years.

@hotrodharley and @NinjaMaster Hey guys...old rock and roller here too. Lead guitar...had a Fender Telecaster (off white) and Bandmaster amp. We should start a band! lol

My tinnitis is from loud music and small puddle jumper airplanes. Specifically I blame a 1967 Who concert...they played kinda loud...
Cheers,
JD

hi people

i want to grow in my bed room in a small tent with carbon filter lights and fans. carbon filter will be blowing in to the room out of the text

is it un healthy to do this. is the carbon bad for you to breath in every day for long amounts of time also what about the evaporating nutrients and water could that be bad for your health

i will make a big room soon to grow in but after thinking about cose and my

I sleep in my grow room most hot nights
then my babe slips in then I slip into her
and still I'm hot getting hotter ...and hotter
Sex with a audience can be difficult
I no longer feel guilty
just knowing most my babes won't ever get a chance ...lol

check this thread out, I've always felt like I should do some of this stuff but never got around to it. For people that I have read posting about doing this, it makes a HUGE difference on the amount of sound the fan makes

@JohnDee, I’m just worried about smell drifting down the hall in case somebody came around. The window is ground level too.
