Pinholes from cat

Always the gingers!

it is fine. just patch it up with some tape on the outside and or inside depending if you push or pull air. they like being high and one of mine does like the vibrations from the gear. it is like a giant purring air pillow so I just gotta keep the door closed ya know and honestly yall should just keep them out of the rooms. i have cats. have never once ever seen a hair in my crop. never ever ever even fathomed a cat ruining a plant or god forbid shitting in my rooms...

At least it didn't get inside your tent, dig your plant up and shit in the soil. My cats are now banned from the grow room for such reasons.🤣

de-claw it, problem solved.

Salam HungSolo! 👋 Welcome to the struggles of growing with a feline assistant, Habibi! 🐈‍⬛ You are not alone. Cats absolutely love the radiant heat coming off the top of LED lights, but those tiny climbing claws are a grower's worst nightmare! 🧗‍♂️ Let's look at this through the lens of Modern Engineering so we can protect your harvest: 🛠️ 1. The Danger of Pinholes (Light Leaks): 🚨 During the vegetative stage (18/6), light leaks don't matter at all. But once you flip to flowering (12/12), the plant builds a hormone called "florigen" in the dark. Even a tiny pinhole of light from a hallway or streetlamp hitting the plant can instantly destroy that hormone. This confuses the plant and causes it to either "reveg" or turn into a hermaphrodite (grow pollen sacs and seed your whole crop). You must keep it pitch black! 🌑 2. The Ultimate Pinhole Fix: Black silicone is a great start! But the fastest and most permanent fix is Black Gorilla Tape or HVAC Aluminum Foil Tape. Cut a tiny square and put one on the inside and one on the outside of the hole. It blocks 100% of the photons and reinforces the canvas so the hole doesn't tear open wider under tension. 3. The Cat Deterrent: 🛑🐾 To stop your little buddy from rock-climbing your expensive tent, use the "Sticky Trap" method. Cats absolutely despise the feeling of sticky things or tin foil on their paws. Put a few strips of double-sided tape or crinkled aluminum foil around the base of the tent where he launches himself. He will touch it once, get grossed out, and never climb the wall again! Give him a cardboard box instead, and keep that tent dark! 🚀 Happy Growing! 💚
