Thanks for the advice!!! I got another 1000 square foot ag building I want to insulate and put 15-20 lights in so I may invest in that first insulating and what not before putting another split in this room. Its amazing how cool the room is. My split because of the cold ass oregon mountain air coming in dosnt even need to click on. Right now im @ 70F with lights @ 105% lights go out at 6 am, I set an alarm and go in and manually turn off my intake just run exhuast and turn split to heat mode. I'm so used to doing everything manual by hand with deps I need to remember I can automate things! I'm really happy with this set up my first run ever and first indoor. The plants are some of the healthiest im with them everyday. They stretched like 2 inches over night and the buds are really forming. The height will be perfect . Its gonna be close I can tell where they are at and how far in that the tops will end up around 30inches below I'm gonna wave to definitely weave the tops. I think I have decided to keep it simple and just not run c02. I believe I can still have above average results due to my plant knowledge and expirence. I love strains like this that just almost quadruple on flip very OG like. I don't see why I need c02 at the moment, if I install it I won't be able to run my lights at 1150watts and ill have heat issues due to having to run no intake as my intake really cools the room I'm suprised. My goal is 2.5-3 a light with c02 i know it sounds cocky but I have hit record numbers in dep with my methods over a zip per square foot. With indoor I know I can almost double that. The top dress I did is really strong and killer it was introduced week 1 of veg so plenty of time to break down and leech into super soil. My buddy runs a hydro set up and trash talks my methods. I'm loyal to the soil. Build good soil good soil food web and organic IPM. You cannot beat it.Nice setup... following along and looking forward to updates.
I notice the plants at the back of the room in your walkway. How are they developing in comparison to the plants directly under the lights? They look a little smaller but not sure if everything in that room is the same age.
I also run a semi sealed room but only run the exhaust when the lights are out. I have my exhaust hooked up to a humidity sensor so it only comes on when lights go out and there a spike in humidity. It works great paired with a burner as it will remove any "off gasing" from the burner, quickly lowers the humidity spike so my dehumidifier doesn't have to work to hard, and clears out the excess co2. I vent mainly to deal with the humidity at lights out... i'm not 100% its needed but its a fail safe if the burner does decide to start fail and put off some nasty uncombusted NG.
In your setup the only thing I would change is ditch the wall banger and get another 36k mini-split and your all set to seal that room up. Get a burner, not bottled and run your current exhaust hooked up to a humidity sensor. Your gonna love not having to swap bottles and its gonna be cheaper. If you can tap into a NG line for the burner even better.
