That's what I've decided. For the same size I think tent is cheaper. Plus it is collapsible and easier to move our store if need be. My box is just too small to do much with yet takes up lots of room. Updated mangy thread with a video

I just hate how my tent walls suck in so much. I actually had some branches break as a result. I was doing passive intake, but added a 6" in, I have an 8" out

I usually open the zipper a lil to compensate, but then I am defeating the whole sealed up effect...
I am sure I can just adjust the exhaust to fix it, but I want the temps lower this run and high/loud fan speed keeps it a degree cooler (not much I know lol) but its something

Put the fan in a sound box if it's too loud? They look simple enough to put together. Just make/find a box to put your fan in and stuff a blanket or something around the fan and close it up. It's funny, I have the exact opposite going on with my tent, it blows up like a balloon lol

As I understand it neg pressure is better to help control bugs and pm, but I lose internal space.

You might have too many bends in ducting or, or too weak of an exhaust fan.

I think it's the latter of the two. I have very little ducting period, but we have an AC unit and a 4in fan as intakes. I have a 4in exhaust and 1 passive exhaust as well...(we don't have AC in the house...it's sad that our tent has an AC unit while we sit on the couch and sweat haha... priorities I guess lol)

MY house I just moved from the a/c sucked big time, but sure was expensive to run!!
Anyway the a/c for the tent was new and worked awesome! So I understand the sweating while the girls have the good life.

Are you running a carbon filter mrtokenpuff? If so you don't want a passive exhaust and you need a larger exhaust fan to intake fan ratio.

No, our place always smells anyway. We'll set one up at the newer place, so this is really good to know...start getting the ideas/things sorted out before setting up next time.

A cool tube on your light with its own intake and exhaust can reduce the amount of air turnover needed on the plants to make running the ac more efficient

I have the 8" fan pulling from the light which is open in the tent, and a 6" pushing into the tent.
Would it be better to run the hood straight through separate, and run the other fan as tent exhaust and have passive intake?

If heat in your tent is an issue then I think I would try that. And if at all possible vent to the outside. But you want a good carbon filter before doing that. Don't want to advertise to cops and rippers

I am gonna vent inside for now since house is gonna need heater anyway in a week or 2.

I never new if the light being independently vented was more efficient or just for ppl who use co2?

It should keep the tent heat down a little bit. Would help more if the house was air conditioned. It sounds like you already have the gear to do it so no money spent if you decide to try it. Although if cold will be a problem shortly then I'd leave it for now

Yeah have a bit of gear, but just want the utility as low as possible. Ill no doubt use the a/c this coming yr, and might need to bust out one of the dehumidifiers this winter, but hopefully it wont be an issue. Right now tent s 71*-79* most of the time...highest I have gotten was 82* I wasnt home and the wife let the house get hot (being cheap)

Hey hc got a question. Do you think that 49w of cfl at a foot and a half distance just isn't enough light to root with? I'm trying to figure out why my cloning has been so poor. I'm going to put in more air stones today as I'm using a bubble cloner.
make sure ur changing that water frequently. it has turned my hell into heaven

yo hc i def have a purple/pink pheno of the bsb and a green one (maybe it will turn later?). but there both about 2 weeks into flowering and 1 is shooting out white hairs from purple calyxes already. what am i looking at for a flowering time? which mom did keep? i know u said the green pheno was the most potent did it have really fat calyxes and smell sweet? i also have a boy of the purple pheno and its a shame i cant keep it around.

Top of the mornin ghb! Or afternoon as the case may be for my mates across the pond. Who you talking to about the blueberry project : ?)

Busy day yesterday didn't really have time to get on here. Scissors are cleaned up and sharpened and eyes are uncrossed time to get at it again. I got most of it done yesterday...would be a lot easier if I didn't have all of my regular garden chores that have to be done too.

I think it was owl that I was mentioning it to about my guy having to go out to cali on short notice and I had to sit on an order of my product for almost an extra week. Turns out his aunt flew him out to help with her harvest. He comes back with a pics and a video of him in a barn full of plants and colas hanging haha too funny!

About time the sun came up. Feels like I've been up for half a day already
