Saw that one. Never heard the brand before so I just kept looking. :( lol I think it was like $125-$140 something like that

I love my Panasonic Whisperline. It is inaudible against the background
noise in my man-cave.

Good luck,

The Tjernlund I linked is $87 w/ free shipping. It is quiet enough with the Variac set to 78 (3/4 speed). The Panasonics look good too, but not sure on the cost of them.

Agreed...I think that the WL was twice that expensive.

It does not respond properly to that motor speed controller either.

It was weird when I tried it. The effect on the fan was stepped and
the controller seemed to heat, if slowly. I like the WL on full anyway.

Take care,

JD

I'm not using a fancy fan like those haha. I'm just using a 6in in-line duct fan, the boosters. They are only like $20, and gets my closest to 79-81f without having any real intake.

HAHA that's EXACTLY how I am starting my 8x4 tent! :) 2-6" boosters. I have an AC in the room the tent is going in so the cold air is sucking in the bottom and hot goes out the window. :)

I need a big fancy one :) Much quieter since I use it with a carbon scrubber and a muffler for sound.

Yeah I'm running one in my 7 x 2 1/2 closet in my room, I'm sure a good amount of fresh air goes underneath the doors, then exhaust just goes throughout the rest of the house.

I'm going to FOR SURE once the tent is full. I know I'll need a larger Intake(probably one of those Lasko utility fans 50-75 at walmart) and a 6" inline WITH carbon scrubber. I'm not so much worried about the sound of it. I'm on the 3rd floor and have NO backyard. there's an AUTO garage behind me HAHA. and within the apartment I can't hear shit with the door closed to the grow room.

Oh yeah if I could get one I would, just always budgeting stuff and just slowly building up my equipment. I bet you can't hear much with the carbon scrubber and a muffler!

I'm sure I'll need a scrubber and better fan eventually, but these plants are like just getting to a foot, got a little while before they get too big or too smelly.

I found the experience a little unsettling.

As the stink of the grow grew, I started to get tiny whiffs of dank
as I walked to my front door from the driveway.

Then my Sister-in-Law commented that she smelled a skunk on the
way in after dinner. LOL that prompted a new filter.

I just love the stinky stuff. I have Kosher/Skywalker/Sour/OG Kushes
coming up, along with more stinkers.

If I have to double filter, then so be it. :0)

So my phone came in today, so now I can post some pictures. I apologize for quality of these pictures, still getting use to the phones new camera. So first picture is just a nice family shot, second picture is the 4 "plato" seedlings, they are all 6 days old, week 1 tomorrow. The third, fourth, and fifth pictures are of Plato, it's in week 3 of veg, 3 days from week 4. Has 1 lst hang down, it's been stay low and bushy, no doubt it's indica dom. The last four pictures are of the Unknown #1 plant. It's in week 4 of veg, 2 days from week 5. I put it's 2nd lst tie-down on today. A lot of nice undergrowth starting to reach to the top of the plant, this one seems more sativa dom. Both were fimd few days back, starting to see new growth around the fimd, but not sure how much tops I got out of it. I am just hoping they both turn out to be females. Well here are the pictures, a lot of growth compared to last pictures. P.S. Also began AACT feeding this morning gave both the bigger plants some nice worm tea.

Where did the Platos come from....I love this one!!!

Right! It's been the favorite no doubt, and a very, very, skunky smell when you rub the leaves or mess with it at all. Might have to take cuttings from some of the next batch of seedlings. You just never know with bag seed :)
