Best option to ventilate without a fan
Sam_The_Herboriststarted grow question 6y ago
I use to grow my plant in a 60cm × 60cm
I had a very low budget to start the cultivation and I plan to buy a fan asap
Meanwhile I would know what is the best option to ventilate my plants ? Thanks for your responses :)

Can I exhaust my grow tent into the closet it's in?I'm putting a 3x3 grow tent into a larger closet I have (maybe 8' x 4')? So I guess the closet is called the lung room? I will have a carbon filter and inline fan in the grow tent exhausting out. Can I exhaust out into the closet it's in? Or is that a no-no? Pros and Cons?Setup. Ventilation

6" Fan in 3x3 TentI bought a 6" fan for a 3x3 Vivosun tent and I'm noticing a good mount of negative pressure even at the lowest setting. Do I need to get a 4" fan? There are some vents on bottom sides of the tent. Can I use those to lessen the pressure? Thanks!Setup. Ventilation

Set Up TentHow should I set up my carbon filter, exhaust fan & air ducts? I’m in limited space right now but want to make sure I get good air circulation still. I set it up the wrong way the last time I had it up but it was already up so I just left it. Also, my fans. Where should they go ?Setup. Lighting

Temp fluctuatesWith the Heater I have(analog setting) fluctuates (needs to drop 6 degrees) before kicking on. So my Lights off temp fluctuates from 67F lowest(about 5min) to peak 74F(<5min) maintaining an average of 70F lights off. Is this too much of a swing?Week 3

I am facing a temperature problem again....My tent reaches 84.2F, which is too hot in my opinion. But my humidity is perfect. On the other hand, if I activate the ventilation, the temperature of the tent reaches 76F, which is perfect, but the humidity level drops dramatically to 35%.

Humidity spike?Hi there,
I'm having weird issues with my humidity, it seems to be fine (40-50%) for 70% of the day, but the remaining 30% of the day it spikes up to 60-65%.
Temps stay reasonable in the 5x5 tent, I have ducted air-con in the house which is on most of the day.
Thank you!5y ago

RH question! Huge veg phase plantsAir humidity increases during night time (up to 90%). I have placed carbon filter below the plants.
Question actually is do I need to be too worried if I can get the RH level better within next couple days? It’s first week of 12/12 switch now. :)5y ago

grow tent / lung room temps???Dialling in my tent and want to compare to others to see if more ventilation = lower temps.
What temperature and humidity difference do you have in your tent and "lung room"?
Do you exhaust your air from the tent to the outside of your lung room?Setup. Ventilation
