Do you have an extraction fan or just oscillating fans? A good 300 cfm exhaust fan vented into a room other than the one your tent is in is ideal. If you want you can put a carbon scrubber on it also to eliminate any smell you exhaust out. Other than that you can get a Mobile Ac Unit and cool your tent or the room your tent is in with it! Cheers and happy growing!

Lights Hi guys! What light should I get? The viparspectra xs1000 or the marshydro ts1000? I intend to grow in a 2x2 space. Would the viparspectra be as bright as the marshydro because its more efficient?

Lux Meter and Hydroponics Who has experience with using LUX meters to position lights in various stages of hydroponic growth. I feel I am giving mine too much light, based on the readings, but don't want to pull them back. Currently 10" from the plants.

Lighting cycle for VEG stage. Is 24x7 OK?Hi, Should I use the VEG lights 24x7 from the time I plant my seed until it's ready to bloom, or would something like 18 hours on and 6 hours off make more sense? Is there a "best practice" for veg lighting? It has worked for my first 3 grows. VIPARSPECTRA 600W LED Thanks, Mr.STM

CO2 depletion in the tent, under light. How much?You have a tent with a plant and a co2 sensor. When you have 1000 ppm in the tent, and you turn off the ventilation, how long does it need to get under 400 ppm? Please many answers! 🙌👍 How much watts has your light? Dimmed down? Give the resulting wattage.

How crucial is an exhaust fan and a carbon filter?I cant find anything in my country as a kit, but would buying them piece by piece work? Example something like in the photo connected to an air duct and then to a carbon filter? Or if the exhaust fan is not crucial? how can i get rid of the smell in a cheaper way?

Bad idea?Will a mars hydro TS1000 be too strong for a 60x60x140cm tent? I have been using a TS600 and TS1000 in tandem in a tent 4x too big for the light level, I have been growing strong and tasty buds but with low yields so downsizing my tent size to maximise the light.
