Nice looking boxer Don. Looks just like Rocco Loco lol.
exhaust 24/7 maybe think about buying an air con unit/ dehumidifier as with most vent probs, its the in and out. are you getting fresh air in from anywhere? maybe an intake fan would be the better option?
these come highly recommended

welcome to the 600!
Fans and ventilation can be complex. One thing that's a bitch with a fan pulling rather than pushing is the air at the end of the line is hot and less dense, so the fan pulls less air than it would push. However like westie said the bulb likes negative pressure more than positive pressure. Also if your vent system has leaks, if you pull they will be little vacuums... while if you push, you will be shooting hot air into the grow space.I got one of thease and they pukker. Even after 12 hours of my 600w being on u can feel the back of the hood and its hardly warm, u gotta seal em tho or the carbon filter wont be any use unless its at the end of the train. Also its advised to have the fan pulling air though it rather than pushing it, prolongs the life of the bulb apparently lol.
thank you! i was just figuring their all being haters because i use leds. beside i dont agree with the g/w thing. lots of thing effect it. strains, plants count,CO2, nutes, soil or hydro, how tall you veg. lots seem to think no matter how many plants you have i should hit 1g/w. so if i had a 1000w hps and 3 plants i should hit 1000 grams? this is how stupid some are, they say well your last grow with a 126w led with 3 plants got this g/w and this 600w led light with 4 plants got the same or a little less, so the other light is better. but they dont under stand it is allot easier to get 126g from 3 plants they it is to get 600g from 4 plants. its funny they try to prove their points but just prove they are ignorant. sorry to ramble, just doing some venting.Tell those guys to blow it out their ass. If you are doing 1g/w you are doing really well. Not trying to offend anyone in the 600... but I don't think any of us here (maybe Integra) get over 1 g/w. I've never had over 0.6 g/w and I've been beyond happy with my yeilds. And I have many many people compliment my yeilds.... none saying I didn't yeild enough. Maybe I'm just not in the right company, but I don't know who all these people pulling 1 g/w + consistantly are.
You pulled an amazing yeild for a 600. Makes me want to run out and get me a 600w led panel like you got. I wouldn't have to keep things so damn cool. Anyways, you did something to be very very proud of.
Run some air ducting from your AC vent into your grow cabinethey guys, just found this thread and figured i join in and ask a few questions. i'm running 2 aircooled 600 hps's in a 72"x36"x84" cab. i'm having serious temp problems (94-99 degrees), and wondered if you guys had any ideas that might help me out. right now i'm pulling air through both lights and exhauting into my main basement useing a 6" vortex fan. i use a 6" inline fan for exhaust and a 4" inline fan for intake. their are also 2 fan moving air in the box. i've changed the fan positions, the venting config., the on/off times on exhaust and intake, and nothing has done anyting more than lower the temp a couple degrees. i'm thinking of changing my refector from the htg euro to a cooltube. do any of you guys know if these will run allot cooler than the euro's?
Na, i dont think i am ready to spread my wings and leave the nest yet! My wing kinda hurts!now u start a 1000w club!
yup have a 600w right now, i am just the odd ball guy with leds.lol. but hay they were free and it grows me some A+ dankI cant speak for our shop steward DST. Ithink all of us are running our grow quite diffrent and for the most part the club is cool with whatever really. Just get a 600 watter NOW!! LOL just jokin peeps. I tink most members would agree that its the good vibes that keep our club tight, and not neccissarly the multitude of growning styles Equipment ect.... 1BMM Peace and Free Marc Emery
