ive got temps stable at 26 to 30 with ac im just useing the little 6l humidifer, and the aircon to handel dehumid in the space as its computer controlled revercycle A/C
the tent is venting out side and the ac is cooling the container the tents is in so i still need the dehumid soon

the ac has its own thermo but its also pluged to a temp sensor in the tent

and comes on straight away when lights get hot


rember i was asking b4 about those, dehumidifiers still dreaming

With those temps, and I’m going to just assume an average canopy -1 for LST from ambient, and your past settling in / hardening off in veg, then lights on at 26C you want about 62-65%, and at 30C you’d be looking at 70%ish. Try n keep temps closer to 26C if you can.

Yeah. As the exhaust pulls air out of the ten/room fresh air will flow in to replace it, you may need to put a timer on the extraction to keep temps where you want them while also cycling air enough especially in winter when humidity can become an issue as well.
You look like you know what your doing, so i run passive inlet with a little fan for circulation and extract through carbon filter and inline fan with temperature setting. Works out way cheaper, if it works, thanks for your time

im just trying to get all the pieces of the jigsaw puzzle, the last purchase a small quest,

what supplier did you get yours from n how much

theres no way im paying 3k for one of those black ones on ebay

other wise i cant do the 40footer container deal, 20 feet is ok but small
i might start off with one of these

so ya dont need to respond really if your busy, just wondering as i will need one eventually

think i might have watched to many youtube vids on containers im headfuked about them,

i should just move to canada, and buy 2 40 footers, and do some big grows just joking but i have thought about it

would they even let me in i doubt it ,, ,,,,,,,,,,,so back to growing down unda :weed:

As they say go hard or go home but its easy to get carried away an want a bigger grow space. Ive got a 7m x 3m x 2.5m space i could see my self buildin 2 seperate grow rooms outta but i gotta pull me head in a bit an stick with a cple tents instead as i dont have the experience or the knowlege half you blokes have to run something of that scale. Its not wat i want but at the end of the day id probs still be happy enough with the setups you blokes on here are running.

Correct. I’ve run passive intake for 3+ years now without any issues

Those containers are the first thing the pigs look at unless they are buried or well camouflaged out the sticks farmhouse etc
Lad I know that's a sparky got done with one in his backyard

If you’ve got 1/2 million spare and the right contacts you could probably have an ok whack over there. You’d probably need more than 2 containers though for it to be a profitable venture.

As beer nutz said though unless ya burried it you would struggle to get away with using one as a grow room though. Then at the same time if ya had an excavator in there diggin a hole im sure it would raise some suspisions not to mention the truck n crane. Then again ya could tell everyone its ya new inground swimimng pool then once its burried tell them the council wouldn approve the permit to have the pool

Lol no. And they definitely wouldn’t give you a grow license.

You’d be lucky to even get into the country on a holiday

Insulating a container isn’t overly hard. Especially if you gut the walls and floor out first. Or get a refrigerated one with no motor and it’s already done. Burying it would be ultra stealth if you’ve got the machines but they rust out in about 5ish years.

Work on your soil mix and watering regime
I went down the indoor starting path and it's hardly worth the trouble trying to keep plants from flowering etc etc
Trees can be grown without indoor starts in Aust due to long veg times outdoors
I actually put mine in two weeks later than I ever have before
