Carbon Filter smaller than Fan

LukeLaBamstarted grow question 2 years ago

Is it bad if the Fan makes 200m3 but the Carbon Filter is only for 100m3? Do I need to change it as quickly as possible? (Tent 60x60x160)

It will make your fan pull less air through first of all. Depends on what stage you are at if you are just starting off then that can wait for now. It's when buds are forming, then it's asap get a new filter. If you are in veg run it without for now. It will be making your fan less effective burning the fan out and costing you more money in the long run

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?

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?

Circulation / Exhaust Getting ready to install carbon filter; found myself wondering if growers typically leave their filters/exhaust/fans on during dark periods? Up to this point, I've had everything on one power-strip/timer: circulation fan, exhaust fans, and lights. Should I keep anything on 24/7?
