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 :)

How to vent grow tent?Venting into large basement area separate from lung room. Averaging 65% RH in tent. How can I vent my grow tent out a century old red brick home's original basement windows discretely? Or, can I vent into an old (capped) chimney without removing the cap? Lung room is 6x10.Week 5

Smelly room, with filter should I be able to smell flowering buds?I have a 3x3 grow tent with a 4” fan and filter. The filter is in the tent and exhausts into the room. I taped the filter to the line and line to the fan so no pinhole leaks. The fan is rated for 198 cfm. I have it on low because when it’s high the smell is worse.Setup. Ventilation

Anyone tried a plasma filter instead of a carbon filter?Supposedly superior odor elimination over carbon filters
Look here. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kwiNUkjL1Dk
As you can see they resemble carbon filters (they're part carbon filter actually). The only question is...can they run 24 hours a day for 3 weeks?
Anyone tried them?Setup. Ventilation

How do I drop my RH down when nothing works? Check Diary. Will defoliation be a good idea? Open tent door and leave it open?My 2x2 is starting to crowd. This is driving the RH to over 70%. Should I defoliate to help with crowding and RH? Or should I just leave it alone? RH in lung room is 48% Exhaust fan, high or low with a dehumidifier, doesn't work. What should I do? Defoliate? Thanks! Check diary.2y ago
