Prom Posted July 17, 2020 Share Posted July 17, 2020 Rule of thumb, you should cycle the air of your tent 6 times a minute. Cooking up a storm inside is as important. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

By incorporating the ScrOG method and creating as flat of a canopy as possible, the consensus has become spread > power over time. Although 1000W of QB LED in said tent is pretty beefy regardless of the principle. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GGG Posted July 17, 2020 Share Posted July 17, 2020 @Prom 4 x 600W. Actually they 640W each, I got the upgrade with twin drivers @ 320W eachDidn't see what outlet fan you using, with 2400w you will need to move alot of air through the tent as@Prom said. One of the best airfiltets was those oil airfiltets from old cars, air runs over the oil and its catches everything........but you tent will smell like a refinery, could to water but that will create to much humidity again.

Teal Smith Posted July 17, 2020 Author Share Posted July 17, 2020 @Ill_Evan Ya I'm really impressed with the QBs. I rate they're the way to go. Just a little pricey at the moment. Hopefully they'll come down a bit in the future. I'll be doing SCROG on next grow. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Prom Posted July 17, 2020 Share Posted July 17, 2020 I keep an eye... no, two eyes on the grow diaries Air, i would rate you a bit on the low side. Go 8 in 8 out(or add another 6), big tent, i use 2 outs to have a less directed flow from in to out.. comes in at one side, leaves tent other side (one 6 goes out of the room with filter, other goes into another tent, vents the Gorillas right now). 2 40cm ocilating, 2 50cm directionals for general mixing... you might need 6 40 and 4 50 to keep all moving. The better your air moves, the better your plants grow. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I saw a dude using the cone filters for cars but I reckon I'll be good with the air purification and dehumidifier inside the room, where the intake will come from. The QBs are dimmable, so that can buffer if it gets a little too hot under the covers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The better your air moves, the better your plants grow. Shit, really man? I do have a spare 6" that I could use, luckily... but that means I 'd have to order more ducting and a Y-splitter. I'm trying to cut out as few holes as possible for the exhaust... I like your design of having 2 outs, so the air isn't as directional. I was going to have the air sweep across the tent diagonally. You have planted a seed now.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Teal Smith Posted July 17, 2020 Author Share Posted July 17, 2020 (edited) ....if I ran the 2nd 6" fan into the drying tent, wouldn't the humidity from the exhaust fuck me around while trying to dry? I'm thinking better to exhaust both out with my setup.... Would you say that 2 x 6" fans for the out is better than 1 x 8" on the diagonal side of the room?

Prom Posted July 17, 2020 Share Posted July 17, 2020 The plants in the corners will have the biggest issue. Point the directionals top down into the corners. Create a natural cyclone. When you have all running, all plant leaves need to move at one stage of the ocilation, corner plants should move all the time, otherwise the plant will not get enough co2, if just standing still. Do you have the hanging distances for your lights? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Teal Smith Posted July 17, 2020 Author Share Posted July 17, 2020 @Prom That makes sense. Cheers for the info You mean the distance from the ground? Not really sure what you mean, bud? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you can use the exit in your drying tent depends on your local humidity. If you are super dry, might even help your drying process and result. If you are more on the humid side... will not help. I use the 2 6 also to regulate my climate. If all as should, both run. Humidity goes up, i vent out of the room only, if to dry, only in room 6 runs. The in room, now going to the gorillas, tent stands in other room, here is also the AC regulating the climate. Then flows back to the big one. Breeding tents are in the room with the AC too.
