You must be able to exchange the air un the room. Getting rid of intake and exhaust system is a no no. Happy growing.

Mycelium or Fungus - Too much Part 2
I am seeing a ton of mycelium on all of my autopots. Because I have a bottom feed system, it is hard to keep my top medium wet without getting mold. Is this going to effect my end result if I do not do anything about this? Should I leave it alone or put sand on it? Thanks all

In-line fan use
I’m just wondering how much to run an in-line fan. I’ve read every 1-3 mins, but I would like to know how long does it run in between those times? Is it constantly turning on and off? Do I need to put it on a timer? Thanks.

Connecting intake fan to my tent's mesh for most efficient ventilation
So as a couple people suggested, I bought an intake fan, and am using it to bring air in from a different section of my closet. How can I stick the ducting to my tent's mesh? Is tape fine? Any other ventilation tips?😉😀

Subterranean fans on 24/7 Y or N?
Was wanting everyone's thoughts on fans on the ground of my tent being on constantly, I want to try an keep airflow as well as make the stems stronger from the movement but always end up getting leaves that get wind damage. Luckily most tends to be where lolipopping will be.

So has anybody used these cordless mini dehumidifiers in their grow rooms? They’re small units that u charge over night every so often when the silica changes colour? My grow room is very small so an electric dehumidifier wouldn’t fit and I’m struggling to keep humidity down

How to keep spacebucket cool
Even when lights are off, bucket temperatures can reach upto 40*C rarely seeming to dip below 30, icepacks help lower temp and raise humidity for a bit, i worry the 2 passive intakes i have arent large enough, although the room itself is very warm too, air con only option?

Dehumidifier recommendations
Any recommendations about a dehumidifier for the 4x4 grow tent? I think even with vacuuming run-off more frequently, I won't be able to get humidity consistently down below 60%. Amazon has some in the 45-90 USD range...

Fan vs Fanless LEDs
How effective are heatsink LEDs? I'm not sure if I should go with fanless (like Mars Hydro SP150) or with a fan (Mars Pro II Epistar 120). I struggle with heat, when the tent is closed it gets to 29-30 degrees with humidifier in full swing (HID lights) and I want to close it soon
