Sealed grow air scrub

Dankbudz84started grow question 4y ago

After adding a dehumidifier, evaporative cooler and c02 bag I decided to go ahead and do a sealed grow to better control the environment. Conditions look great. I’d like to know if I can loop my exhaust to recirculate the air to scrub it when things get stank? Video on the diary

A supply of fresh air is vital when your not running your c02. Plants put off oxygen and breathe c02. So in a sealed environment when c02 is not running and you recirculate the air it would be like putting a bag over your head. This time it would be oxygen building inside the tent instead of the co2 they need to breathe.,Cheers

I am adding C02, I have the ability to maintain a perfect vpd at all times, I also walk in the tent at least once every 2 days maybe they are getting their fresh air there. I don’t see how this would be bad, I have humidifier, dehumidifier and a/c.

No, it wont work. Without fresh air exchange your plants will die. Plants need both oxygen and carbon dioxide to survive. You can not grow healthy plants in a system whereby there is no replenishment with new air.

Brauche ich unbedingt einen (Schwenk-) Lüfter in meiner Growbox?Habt ihr schon mal ohne (Schwenk-) Ventilator in der Growbox angebaut? Wenn ja, welche Erfahrung habt ihr dabei gemacht? Ich möchte nur ungern einen Ventilator einsetzen, weil das vermutlich die Lautstärke der Box deutlich erhöht. Schon mal vielen Dank für eure Erfahrungen.

2x2 Circulating Fan What is the best circulating fan for a 2x2 tent available on the european market? I bought a Secret Jardin MO20 oscillating fan, and I highly regret it because I have read several reviews mentioning that it can catch fire. Is there any other good alternative for circulating air?

Maintaining VPD I've got my photoperiod doing well in a 2x2 tent. I'm trying to regulate my VPD with what I have on hand. Currently I'm running my exhaust fan for 8 minutes every hour to get an average VPD around 1, but I'm concerned about the swings. Am I micromanaging?

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?

Grow Tent/Room setup in the basement - dehumidifier or humidifier needed?I’m planning a small grow setup in my basement and have a room that’s holding a steady 17–18 °C (62–64 °F) with about 55–58% relative humidity. My plan is to vent the exhaust from the grow box straight outside through an existing duct. Will I need a de- or humidifier? Thanks!

How do you deal with the humidifier in hydro ?So I bought a dehumidifier as advised but now the room gets hotter (Had to setup an extractor to pull the hot air and now I have no intraction) and during the day EC goes up of 0.1 or even 0.2 (from 1.8 to 1.9 or 2). I suppose there are more nutriments because of dehumidification
