Seddenstarted grow question 3 years ago
I need to create an air exchange scheme inside my grower, but I cannot afford to buy an exhaust fan, I have some coolers and I would like to know if it is possible to continue with them and how many coolers would be recommended to put in my grower

The air exchange is so that the plants can transpire and get a fresh intake of CO2. You can use any regular fan to do this. If your only getting a day temp of 20 then you should not run into any heat issues so having coolers will not help. At the current stage your at its not that big of a deal. It will be when your plant gets bigger and starts to fill out the tent. You will need to get some fans to move the air around.
Happy Growing

autoflower? if so, just leave tent open and a normal fan circulating air is enough... if photoperiod, can do that for vege phase, but by the time you get to bloom you'll probably need to close that tent up at least at night... you still want some air exchange one way or another.
evaporative coolers? Those are fine as long as relative humidity % is not too high already... don't add so many that you create an incubator for bacateria, mold and other microbes.
my current grow has been as warm as 33C with no problems. Around 30C is a better ceiling to stay below. Warm is good up to a point.

Temp fluctuatesWith the Heater I have(analog setting) fluctuates (needs to drop 6 degrees) before kicking on. So my Lights off temp fluctuates from 67F lowest(about 5min) to peak 74F(<5min) maintaining an average of 70F lights off. Is this too much of a swing?

High humidity during floweringI don't have an exhaust fan since this is my first growth and I'm quite on a budget
my humidity averages around 65-75%
I know high humidity increases risk of mould and bud rot
is it necessary to get an exhaust fan and aiming for 40-50% or just risking the consequences?Week 9

Best way to cool your tent/ growbox?So I’ve built a custom growbox using an IKEA wardrobe, air vent for intake, two circulating fans, carbon extractor exhaust, and a 600W LED grow light. Temps average at 29 degree Celsius with the lights on full, is this too high? Best way to bring the temps down? Many thanks!

Humidity problemsCan I have some advices on how to lower my humidity? I’m having some troubles lowering it since my plant is now flowering. Usually I can’t lower it from 60% while my temps are always on 27/28 C during lights on.
I will leave a pic of my setup here. Should I change something?
