I run one that blows over the top of the soil and another over the canopy. Don't see an issue with what you're doing

Carbon filter sleeve needed?I use the carbon filter on the exhaust side. On the intake side, I have a dust screen mesh.
The tent is quite clean so that’s why I don’t see the need of the pre filter. Would also probably load the inline fan a bit too.
What’s you thought?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.a year ago

(MarsHydro) Anyone have experience with this combo?I'm thinking about upgrading my ultra cheap duct fan and carbon filter to this beauty.
It has a thermostat controller and is under 250€.
It seems to good to be true for this price.
Is anyone using it and give me a review?Setup. Ventilation

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

Dehumidifier recommendationsAny 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...Other. General questions

Risk of bud rot with these conditions?My tent keeps bouncing between 55-65% throughout the day during mid-late flower stage. Staying between 24-26 C. I have two fans moving air in the tent and the plants are we defoliated. An in-line fan is pulling air out. How much at risk am I for bud rot? Thanks!Buds. Other

Peltier dehumidifier @300ml per day adequate for 3x3x6 tent? Alternatively, a conventional dehumidifier outside the tent?Peltier thermoelectric dehumidifiers extract 300ml of water per day. Weak compared to compresser units, small and use less energy. Is it enough?
Would a conventional dehumidifier set outside of the tent near the intake be effective, or does it need to be inside the tent to work2 years ago

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%.
