Fresh Air
Funkymonkeystarted grow question 2 years ago
Hey legends I have a 5x5 ft tent 2mtrs tall. I have a carbon filter attached to a 8 speed quiet fan which will suck the smell and hot air out. Should I have fresh air coming into the bottom of the tent? My plants look really healthy anyway thank you

If you are using an extractor fan you need a vent to help let air in.
I use Secret Jardin light proof air vents, They can be installed on any tent with poles and every without, but they would just hang there.

Their are also other options, it will extend your fans life and with a carbon filter attached it already has resistance no need to add more.
Good Luck!

If your tent has a little bottom flap vent mesh screen, every now and then just open it to give your tent a good cycle of fresh air. Doing this will put less strain on your fan and filter too as its not sucking up so much. Otherwise it will do the job just fine especially because you have a large tent it definitely helps with air circulation.
Happy grow freind!

Foxtail Ready For HarvestHello. This plant of mine became foxtail. As the harvest time nears its end, blooms have begun to bloom again on their hills. Now the first flowers at the bottom are ready for harvest. What should I do? Should I harvest immediately or wait for the new flowers to mature?

Flushing with RO Water (EC 0,0) or tap water (EC 0,8)?Hi.
I think, it's 1,5-2 weeks before they are ready to harvest.
Tell me, if you see something else in the pics. :)
I want to flush them now every 2 days with only water.
I have the opportunity of RO Water (EC 0,0).
Should i use the RO water or normal tap water (EC 0,8)?

Bad idea?Will a mars hydro TS1000 be too strong for a 60x60x140cm tent?
I have been using a TS600 and TS1000 in tandem in a tent 4x too big for the light level, I have been growing strong and tasty buds but with low yields so downsizing my tent size to maximise the light.Other. General questions

77 days old autoflower, up to this point is personal taste or still there ways to go?
I majorly see milky and a few ambers trichomes, correct?
Those white pistils are due to the foxtailing, so is not a good metric.
