I got the holes cut and some sound proffing done. Now you cant even tell the duct fans are on.
For now I just put them on a timer that will run from 8am to 8pm.
Heres the right side exhaust, built into the shed.
This is the left side,
I know it ant pretty but there is warm air comming out.
Its on the back side so nobody sees it but It will probably bug me and I will build a box for it.

back in the building thread i had asked you what you were using for roof vent, an this was why-
i can't remember exactly how your cap went together but from the last couple pics, it looks as though the caps has the plastic pieces that fill the ribs
if those openings were not blocked they would flow a tremendous amount of air, through convection, a gap1/8" wwide will flow as much volume as an 8" hole
when i said roof vent i had a flow through design in mind, this type of venting is used on almost all houses anymore, due to increased airflow over can type vents, and is also known as ridge vent
these are the fans i was talking about, this ad is from menards
one time i built a house for a guy on a big sand cliff, the guy was an engineer, and had me dig a trench 8 feet deep and bury a 16" pvc pipe out the side of the "cliff" and the other end into his basement, about 200-250 feet long
during the summer he didn't need air conditioning, the air that would come out of that pipe was COLD

Yea, originally I had planned on two vents one on each side of the roof and the air would flow through like that, thats why I bought two of the solar openers. Then I changed my mind when I saw how much it was gonna open. If I cant keep it cool enough, next year there will be two.
Yea, the end of the panels I used those fillers cause I couldn't figure out a way to screen them.
Oh I do realize It would be cooler without them but it would be easy for bugs to get in and I would need to replace them for my winter grows. I'm probably gonna drill holes between the rafters and screen them. what do they call them... Pigeon holes? then place blocks in front of them in the winter. Shit, I just realized, I still haven't made a screen for the big vet up top yet.
Wow thats cool alright, That engineer dude designed his own free a/c.
Thanks for the links.
Gotta love it.you know the good thing about dry ice and grow rooms?
its 100% pure CO2
bonus!
Good news,
With the inline fans up top going, the added fan pointing out the top vent, the window and door closed and the A/C on I hit the mark. It dropped 12° now the temps inside the greenhouse are the same as outside.
Dont have any new pics so here is a couple shots from my cabinet harvest I did today.
I grew a White rhino and 5 Afghan Kush. Heres a couple shots of the White Rhino.
Bud shot right before I cut.
Whole plant,
They were grown in a 24' by 48" cabinet under a 400w Ceramic Metal Halide bulb.
Now I am done with that grow I can concentrate on this more.

Yea buddy that train wreck knocked me on my ass. Still does LOLmmm tasty. I'm all out of smoke again (poor planning between last grow and current). I'll be living vicariously through you for about 7 weeks. But at least I've got a full-on scrog going now in my cab w/ 5 Train Wrecks. That should hold me for a while.
You gonna post a journal?
If I get anything like you did outdoors I will be stoked.im ready to see these ladies take off and get to flower already
Yea man, its pretty cool. Thanks.
I had planned to, but work got real busy for me right after I got my cabinet reconfigured for SCROG. I just don't have the time to do it at the moment.. maybe next time.
Here's how things look now. One pic of the day I installed the screen and the other one from tonight (day 5 of 12/12). I'm pretty happy with it overall, though if the center doesn't fill in during the next few weeks, I think I'll bump it up to 6 plants or move the end ones in a bit next time.
Ya, and I just germinated my next round so I won't (or shouldn't) encounter a similar timing issue. Going to be Royal Queen's ICE feminized. Maybe I'll do a journal of that one. We'll see how work goes.Looks great man, Day 5? looks about right.
Yea just keep training the side branches and it should fill in real nice.
Its time you pulled some serious weight. If you can keep you paws off them this time you got a good shot.
Temps mid 80"s
Humidity around 20%
Watered twice a week with filtered tap PPM about 300 Ph 6.5
OK, its end of week 4 of veg, The three plants that started flowering have slowed there vertical growth. I assume they are reverting back to veg. I don't know if God Bud is gonna make it. It may be this strain does better with very little nutrients. That ant gonna happen in this soil mix.
I got the face frame and doors on the water shed yesterday. I used a full 4x8 sheet of siding and cut it out of the middle so there are no seems.
Just so happens I had a small cab made out of particle board that the shelves were sagging so I replaced it and trimmed the doors for the water shed.
Heres a vid, Sorry its jumpy, Maybe I will try a tripod next week.

Hell yea, That sounds great!
She is going to be a big girl alright. Shes about 32" tall where the rest (besides Blue Cheese) are around 24"
Its a beautiful thing man.
I am still gonna bury a Styrofoam cooler and use Dry Ice at the intake. If for nothing else the co2.
I gotta see what it will cost locally, Still haven't done that.
Holy Shit! I see you have a new avatar, You grew that monster cola in your cab?
