Hi @Uk420show aluminum paper does not work, you have to use white plasticized or mylar paper, you can find it at any DIY store for sale. The light from your light source when reflecting on the aluminum foil will create points of heat that will burn and damage your plant. if you are not going to have an air extractor, you should have an extra fan for air circulation and a dehumidifier because without an air extractor you will have high humidity during flowering. for grows without air extraction there is a good solution, 1 or 2 natural bags of CO2, you will find them for sale in any grow shop are a good help for those who plant without air circulation. good luck mate 👍🙏

It looks like a great little space, but airflow is going to be an issue. The heat from the lights and the humidity from the plants transpiration will cause you issues. If you are able to cut a hole in the ceiling you could easily hook up an exhaust fan. If you aren't able to make any modifications to the room then I think you will have a constant struggle keeping the environment where it needs to be. But best of luck if you decide to give it a shot!

Plastic grow bags. What's the deal?So I'm using plastic grow bags. They seem to hold moisture a lot more than fabric grow bags. Might have to cut more holes in them or just use them for transplanting clones or something. Anyone use these? What are they good for? Suggestions?

Smelly room, with filter should I be able to smell flowering buds?I have a 3x3 grow tent with a 4” fan and filter. The filter is in the tent and exhausts into the room. I taped the filter to the line and line to the fan so no pinhole leaks. The fan is rated for 198 cfm. I have it on low because when it’s high the smell is worse.

Temps to high....i think Hi, newbie here, I'm really struggling to keep temps below 30°C. Outside temps are not helping all, i have my extractor on full, air circulation fan on full, both flaps open, shed door even open lol and my light is turned down to 250 watts, which probably isn't high enough!

Fan vs Fanless LEDs How effective are heatsink LEDs? I'm not sure if I should go with fanless (like Mars Hydro SP150) or with a fan (Mars Pro II Epistar 120). I struggle with heat, when the tent is closed it gets to 29-30 degrees with humidifier in full swing (HID lights) and I want to close it soon

How to Lower Humidity The weather outside was really wet and chilly for days here and the humidity is about 60% at this point. Without a duct fan, how can I lower the humidity in the tent? I'm using several small fans right now. I plan to get a duct fan when I can, but I need something until then

RH too low in indoor grow. Solutions?I'm having a issue with my grow - RH won't go above 20%. With a humidifier inside, full power. Temperatures are between 21 and 25c and I can only think the air extractor is taking too much air out of the grow, as in the night, with lights and fan off RH rise to +80%. Any ideas?

Temp tent issue Nice! Thanks guys for the quick help! I’m also kinda sort of having a temp issue, I’m trying to make it the best I can, I’m way down south and the temp reads 86-88 a lot. If I blast the fans and humidifier it does get down but I’m worried about the electric bill going up.

AC/humidifier So I did get a humidifier/AC. Super cheap, $40. It seems to work. I’ve gotten it at 79-82 degrees and 45-50% humidity. I just have to keep filling the water part up every couple hours but I work from home in my room where it’s in my closet
