P.s., being clear on the bottom there is a good little window for you to see moisture content. Like in the pic, you can see it's well damp and doesn't need any water whatsoever
If you are pulling air out of the tent through the carbon filter, you dont need to push air into it...... Also why would you run your carbon filter on a timer? Just run it 24 hours a day at a lower speed. Plants love fresh air.I designed and 3D printed an adapter for my fan. I still have to 3D print the base of the adapter. I can run some 3 inch ducting from the fan into the tent. So in the summer I can run the fan in the air conditioned house and cool the tent.

He's right homie. If you're pulling through your filter 24/7 and have a negative pressure inside your tent (sides suck in once you zip it up) all you'll need to do is open a bottom flap with the mesh and your air conditioned house air in the ambient room, will be pulled in through the mesh.If you are pulling air out of the tent through the carbon filter, you dont need to push air into it......

I can’t run the inline fan 24/7 just yet, only to cool the tent down when it gets too hot. the rh outside is still in the 30s at best. until the humidity levels come up here, i will just have it kick on when the tent gets too warm or if that’s not enough, then i’ll put it on the timer.If you are pulling air out of the tent through the carbon filter, you dont need to push air into it......

Plants need constant supply of fresh air. Not so much at seedling stage but once they start any sort of vigorous growth.....I can’t run the inline fan 24/7 just yet, only to cool the tent down when it gets too hot. the rh outside is still in the 30s at best. until the humidity levels come up here, i will just have it kick on when the tent gets too warm or if that’s not enough, then i’ll put it on the timer.
the fan adapter thing was just boredom and not needed. you’re right the negative pressure sucks in plenty of air. i just may need to run a ducting hose from the tent into the main house where it’s cooler in the warmer months.
the room where the tent is gets very cold in the winter and very hot in the summer. the air going into the tent in say july, will need to come from the house. cooler air is available just a few feet away so i short length of hose will be enough.
Even the ambient house air will be plenty if he pulls through the flap. But even better, put your hose right into a central air vent and tape it up if you can. Not needed but why not. That's all outside, filtered, fresh and co2 rich air.Plants need constant supply of fresh air. Not so much at seedling stage but once they start any sort of vigorous growth.....
once they get going i will start running the inline fan. right now just trying to keep the humidity in the 60s. as soon as that fan kicks on it drops rh into the 30s.Plants need constant supply of fresh air. Not so much at seedling stage but once they start any sort of vigorous growth.....
i thought the sp 250 was pretty much ideal for the 2x4 tent?Space your cobs like this. More space towards the middle. I may have drawn it a bit excessive and over dramatic, but you get the idea. Don't over think it. You just want more cobs out to the ends for even coverage is all.

Yes the air in a house is plenty for just about any tent. Im just saying you need the circulation as soon as they are more than a few inches tall.Even the ambient house air will be plenty if he pulls through the flap. But even better, put your hose right into a central air vent and tape it up if you can. Not needed but why not. That's all outside, filtered, fresh and co2 rich air.
Yes duct tape! The grower tool.Ya, I think duct tape would work... Just make sure it's dark. Maybe just use 2 layers to be safe. Haha.
Was for another thread. sorry it was late.i thought the sp 250 was pretty much ideal for the 2x4 tent?
True. right now, 50-75% humidity and 75-85°F is more important for a new seedling. You can always throw a plastic ziploc over the cup, or use a clear Tote turned upside down for a great humidity dome. They also sell cake holders at dollar store that are really nice.Yes use a humidifier/dehumidifier to control humidity in my opinion the airflow in the tent is much more important than the humidity but again that's not something to worry bout right this moment.
rh in the tent is currently at 64% +/- 4Yes use a humidifier/dehumidifier to control humidity in my opinion the airflow in the tent is much more important than the humidity but again that's not something to worry bout right this moment.
