Having the filter outside the tent kinda defeats the purpose of having a filter.

Doubtful. In fact, no.

How is that? If the filter is put to where the last thing the air goes through is the filter, why wouldn't it work?
It would be hood or cool tube > inline fan > filter > room
If the filter does what it's supposed to do, you shouldn't smell anything coming from it right?
Keep in mind the airflow is significantly decreased when placing the filter after the inline fan (for me airflow cut down by almost half), so make sure you test out the setup first.

Yeah, you just want to make sure you are sucking the unfiltered air thru the filter so you get rid of the smell. Maybe I'm just stoned and reading you wring, LOL! Mine all sits inside the tent: Carbon Filter > Inline Fan > Hood > Vent Out
Oh and like chrisbtx said, you want a good fan of course because you will significantly reduce your CFM's by pulling everything thru one fan. Works for me and a lot of others though.

Here is the next update. I am 3 days into flowering now. I took 5 clones.
She is already getting way bushy and I have had to tie her down some.
While i was trying to tie down the main stem, it split right down the middle but it didn't break off.
So I wrapped some twine around where it split to hold it together. that was 5 days ago, so I think its safe to assume that there was no permanent damage done just judging by the leaves. They are still green and healthy, and still growing

Hi all! I'd like to join the club. I won't be able to post pics till Monday. My phone is my only source of Internet right now. But I have a dr60 with a 400w mh in it. I love it but it's so hot!! I have trouble keeping the temps below 84 with the A/C ducted directly to the dark room!
Plant looks good and healthy though!

This is why I've just picked up a 250. I knew a 400 would be way too hot.
Also, did you know that a 250w ballast is the same price as a 600w ballast? Can you believe that shit?

Can you give us a little more detail about your setup. It is obvious that your intake is coming from the AC ducting, but what about your outtake. Is that passive? or do you have a blower pulling air out?
It sounds to me like your putting air in, but it is not coming back out fast enough. Also, what is the AC temp set to on the thermostat?
