Ventilation set up
BostonGirlGrowsstarted grow question 5 years ago
I just got my first grow tent- a Vivosun 32x32x64 and a Vivosun 4” fan and carbon filter combo. It came with directions for the tent- but nothing on the ventilation system. What’s best as far as set up? Any tips, recommendations, or photos.? Does it need to vent outside?

If the carbon filter is a good one, you could vent the exhaust right out into the larger room area. Trying to get it outside if not near a window is a trick, unless you have an unused dryer vent. Mount the exhaust on an upper corner, as heat rises, and it will be easier for it to vent out.
You should also get another 4" fan for internal circulation, and place cattycorner to your exhaust fan, near the bottom of the tent.

I’m in a 1.2x1.2 with 600w hps and I was reaching temps of 32. Today I started extracting to another room and temps have dropped to 28 which is great. I used to extract to the room with a cfl lamp and it worked great because the cfl wasn’t that hot so the extractor helped keep temps up. If you check out my gelato diary you can see how I have my fans and extractor setup. Hope this helps.

It's best to pull in air on the lower end and blow out air on the higher end. When you set it up make sure there is no light leaks for the exhaust.

Can RH be raised to 100% for short periods of time?My extraction is noisy and the humidity is causing a sore throat at night. Can I switch it off and raise my RH to 95% on a regular basis without stressing the plants?
I have an indoor grow 2"x2" that runs full ventilation. RH rises from 70% to 95% after 30 mins of no venting.

Circulation / ExhaustGetting 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?Week 11

Grow tent TemperatureI have a 90cmx90cmx60cm grow tent with a VIPARSPECTRA 300W LED Grow Light inside.. How much will an extraction fan and carbon filter bring down the temp inside? In this heatwave my tent is running at 33 deg C, no plants seeded yet. Will the fan be enough or should I get a cooler?Setup. Ventilation

Cooling whilst using humidifier outside a small grow tentI have a small 90x90x60cm grow tent with a VIPARSPECTRA 300W LED. Heat levels are crazy and running a small humidifier with ice blocks inside the tent along side extraction isn’t cutting it. Could I buy a bigger humidifier, keep it outside the tent duct it in to keep it cool?Setup. Ventilation

Do you think this is a better position for carbon filter so it can have better airflow or is it more important to scrub air from the top and have 2 90 degree bends?
I'll probably try this in my next grow.
Pic with drying plants is setup from before with 2 90 degree bends.
