Yeah you really need extraction in there to help with the humidity, and you need the air exchanged for the health of the plant. That light should be enough for a 2x2 area at most. The plants don't look terrible you likely just need to dial in a few environmental conditions. They need air exchanged, and they need air flow. Look at your temperatures at the canopy level as well, with LED you will be fine anywhere between 78-82 or so at canopy.
Ok will do then

You will suck that tent into a black hole with that unless you have a controller to turn it down almost all the way. dbz is right about the light IMHO also.

You just want a little negative pressure inside the tent, a speed where it is slightly sucking in the sides of the tent. @budofgreen is right with that small of a tent you just want to be careful not to "suck it into a black hole"
Yeah i know for my next grow to start a diary... kinda dove head first in this

Make sure you get both switches on your light on, so you can take full advantage of your 125w. Right now it looks like you have the "Bloom" diodes switched off, so your only using half of the lights potential.
Can i set This up like this? Then run the duct out the tent from the fan? I’ve seen a couple ways ppl set it up, bo

There's a lot of good information on here and some pretty stern folk who won't steer you wrong but ultimately you gotta make your grow work for you. Growing works well with a modular approach. As the weed industry is based on the concept of stealth it has provided many tools to accommodate many lifestyles.

Ventilation 101 - How to Ventilate Your Grow Space
Ventilation is a vital factor in your plant growth. By supplying fresh air from outside your grow tent, you provide CO2 for your plants, driving their photosynthesis. Expelling the air inside will keep temperature and moisture build-up under control, preventing mold and mildew from inhibiting...

You can it up the exhaust any way that you want. If you feel like you will run out of head room, you can install the fan and filter outside of the tent. I personally have my fans installed inside my tents because it helps cut down on the noise from the fan.
That ductwork that came with your fan and filter can be cut to make as many sections of it as you want. I run mine out of the tent similar to what you have pictured, and cut a 3' length off of the ductwork and use that as light trap for a passive intake in one of the lower ports of the tent.

Here is what I did, which is quite lazy but it worked for me. The frame bars support my fan. You could do something similar but just attach your carbon filter to the inlet of your fan.
Temp on the gauge say 20.7c right now but i have it open trying to do my set up thanks bro...and it’s sister*
