tent pressure
Buddy_Bloomstarted grow question 3 years ago
i have a positive pressure in both tents because i have an AC plugged on my intake to manage the temperature inside the tent easier. Can it be a problem for my grow?

Yes it can be a problem. You want negative pressure to make sure that all air gets pushed out after it has gone thru your carbon filter. positive pressure will push out air where ever it has lowest resistance. eg cable holes, opening of the door etc etc.
Also, not as important if you have a premium tent..
negative pressure also helps with giving the tentpoles a uniform pressure , the tent becomes more stable and it also keeps poles staying attached to one another
MrStinkyanswered grow question 3 years ago
If the tent walls are blowing out (positive pressure) it means that your extraction isnt freshening you up as often as it should be - more air is going in to the tent than is being drawn out. It would be wise to get a bigger extractor or you could end up higher rh, more smell, higher temps, stagnant air pockets etc. etc. - basically you could get all the things happening that you have an extractor system to solve in the first place. Is your intake fan stronger than your out? If so, switch them over and it might sort it out.

2x2 Circulating FanWhat 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?

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.

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?

FansDo you guys leave all of your fans on all the time? I do but I'm wondering if I should. My best fan is getting hot hot hot however, if I turn it off I'm afraid it'll be too hot in my room or the air will get stag.
What do you do? Rotate fans? Turn em off for a bit each day or?Week 10

Air flow methodI removed the hood from the home AC to run cold air directly into the grow tent with a 4 inch duct at the bottom. I have an inline fan to push hot air out to balance out the air pressure at the top.
Is this a good idea or should I just have a fan inside with no in or out?

Humidity Control TipsWhat is the best way to control night-time humidity? I have my lights-on conditions pretty fuckin' dialed in, but my lights-off time humidity is around 67-68%. My temps are great at lights-off, around 71-73F. I can put a big dehumidifier in, but I don't want to yet. Any thoughts?

High heat in greenhouse, how hot is to hot?I built a 16x20 greenhouse with dual vents and a 24” exhaust fan. I hit a max of 122 (it’s 92 outside). I typically reach 105-110 on regular days. Everyone looks happy other than an nutrient burn issue. Can weed plants handle this kinda heat?
