Going to pump in air with an inlet fan
-
Fan doesn't oscillate fully, but it's blowing across cross the entire area... I can see the space blanket moving all over
-
How's the spacing here? Is it OK?
-
-
So it begins. Removed all the shelves and cut the top shelf to 150 strips on either side. Still alot of work to do
-
Yea I think I'll just monitor Temps and humidity and adjust as needed
-
Better yet, if I run extraction fans for 1 minute and then pause both inflow and outflow for 2 minutes (whilst still running oscillating fan obviously) that would still be 3 air changes every 6 minutes. Would it be OK to let it stand like that for 2 minutes with the same air circulating? Or would it result in any detrimental effects?
-
Question regarding ventilation.. I have read that the air needs to be completely exchanged at least every few minutes. Ive got a grow area that is 0.8m3 Extractor fans that run at 90m3/h So theoretically, if i keep the fans running 24/7 , it will do over 1 and a half change per minute, if im not mistaken.. Can i put my extractor fans on a timer, to only run every other minute? i.e. run for a minute, then rest for a minute and repeat.. This would mean approximately 3 air changes every 4 minutes..
-
Thanks!
-
I guess ill start with one fan at the bottom and add a second if needed..
-
Also, how would i deal with power failures, considering that my grow area is going to be a closed and insulated cabinet? How long can the plants survive without new air and circulation?
-
Quick question.. where should circulation fans and fan heater be placed? At the bottom , in line with pots and angled upwards? If so, would they stay at the bottom as the plant grows taller etc. or move as time goes?
-
Have changed alot of things since then though.. 3 x 10l fabric pots Freedom farms potting mix 150w LED grow ight 2 Extractor fans, 1 in and 1 out Oscillating fan heater Oscillating Fan Insulation for sound Space blankets for reflection temp controller etc wanted to spend 1k, but looks like its gonna be like 6-7k lol
-
How many pieces is this though? lol is it 6, or 12 or 24 ? Seems to me like it is 12 pieces. I did see this yesterday but i think its gonna be too pricey tbh. 15 pieces wont even cover one 1800 x 900 panel if im not mistaken
-
Yep will think about it and decide..
-
Think I have some strong 2 way tape lying around somewhere.. Should sbe fine I guess
-
Yep, good point you make about the permanency. If I could find strong enough magnets then why not? You know of any that won't break the bank? I think the 50mm foam would be too thick though won't it?
-
What's a good glue I can use to stick this insulation to metal or wood? Or maybe a strong 2 way tape?
-
So you'd agree with the 50mm option?
-
Maybe the best would be to just get the 50mm.. Then I can double up wherever possible..
-
I could do the insulation on the outside for 4 of the 6 sides i guess..
-
Just thinking now that if I use the 100mm, then I'm making my grow space really cramped as one of the sides is already just under 500mm without any insulation. Would the 50mm still work to a degree? Maybe double up on the 50mm on selected sides and keep it 50mm on the cramped length?
-
Thanks for all the help so far guys. Much appreciated Can't wait to get started
-
I think something like this is gonna do the job
-
Thanks! Will have a look around
