Sealing up a room

have you never heard of hybrid sealed rooms?

this is what im talking about to be specific for those of you who seem to not know there is such a thing in existence from what i can tell.
Hurry back pedal faster. I fully understand the topic at hand. I even mentioned that some sealed rooms might be equipped with vents for times they may be needed. This is nothing new or special, but as a standard a sealed room is sealed not vented. Thus the name. If you wanna talk about hybrid systems then talk about them, but that’s not what you were debating until you got proven wrong.

Hold on there .... I just lurked that “ grow “ and you even state you “ suck at building things “ ... your words.
You mention “ approximate “ dimensions... but you “ forgot “ ? ......
I don’t know what cheap tents you buy that snap plastic bits , but that was YOUR CHOICE TO BUY the damn thing.

Don’t push misinformation to the OP ... that closet is no different than hundreds that many growers use with folding doors or sliders.
Priority with that space is ventilation... Door can have reflective foam board creased at door folds lining the inner surface .
Its not rocket science adapting a space for a fucking plant. Sure people build boxes , cabs , dressers , etc.

I built a grow box from a 32 gallon tote using the fucking lid as a door , lined in a reflective surface back in the day.
It worked as seedling chamber. Crude but it worked. Passive intake , fan pull from back.


Closets are easy to mod.
and the tents i bought were not cheap ones, FYI

HYBRID uses things from multiple systems
its a hybrid snob, i just mentioned this
You mention this because you did a quick Google to try to cover up your nonsense, and read the first few words and decided YES! I can say that's what I meant!

You're still way off though in trying to cover yourself, instead of just admitting that you had your terminology mistaken. That's all it would have taken. As for the sealed room portion at least.

no i did not, but i thought you knew there were multiple types of sealed grow rooms, it is impossible to do a hybrid sealed grow in a grow tent, this is why i differentiate and call it a sealed room vs a grow tent, i guess around here you have to be really specific or people like you jam it down peoples throats, sorry guys but i will mention it is a hybrid sealed room next time. there is such a thing, and there are principles at play that justify calling it a sealed room, with ventilation.

There is one type of sealed grow room. A sealed grow room.

If it is not sealed, it isn't sealed.

Calling it hybrid in your context is nonsense. It's literally no different than a grow tent.

So is every one of my tents then. Right back to square one.
the whole reason i can call mine a sealed room is because it will not leak air through zips or the holes in the tent for the intake and out take, or tears in the tent. there is so many ways bugs mold and pests get into grow tents, with my set up, it will be sealed, with the intake and out take fans attached in such a way there is zero chance for mould bugs pests getting into the tent through the gaps between the ducting and the intake out take holes in the tent, and being about 100 times more porous then a sealed hybrid room made out of a solid material plastic wood glass cement does not matter, a tent is no where close in tightness then a hybrid sealed room

The room is either sealed or it isnt. If you are talking about pulling co2 into the environment from the outside. then it is not a sealed room.
sorry guys but there is such a thing as a hybrid sealed room. sorry to burst the bubble.

no disrespect meant to you guys but its reality

all air leaving my tent will be scrubbed by a filter, all air in will be scrubbed by a filter, it is a fact you cannot do this with a tent.

Wrong again!!

You could totally do a “hybrid sealed room” with a tent. Run CO2 enrichment and an exhaust with the fan turned down low just like the description you read on google.

One thing you are correct about is I had never heard someone call it a hybrid sealed room. I had to google it, and I can admit that. I’ve seen growers vent sealed rooms, and like I said that’s nothing new. It seems incredibly wasteful though to run a “hybrid” and constantly vent CO2.

Something that has gotten overlooked is that REALLY most closet growers have no need or use for CO2 enrichment. With small plant numbers and basic ventilation a home living environment puts off plenty of CO2 for a hand full of plants.
