The air cooled hood @Lucky Luke just got is a good one for a tent,they have a nice low profile. If your getting a bulb go for digimax if you have a digital ballast the digimax are up there with Ushio or Hortilux and almost 1/2the price

They aren’t cheap but LEC/CMH 315w lights are the best light you can buy I reckon

If your doing a Hps grow you should just seal off the whole caravan and get yourself some new ventilation. Just cut a hole in the floor for one sucking air In and cut a hole in the roof or side for exhaust and add whatever ventilation fans you already have and use you clip on fans directly on your plants. You could easily pull it off in winter .also keep your Leds for suplement lighting

A 600 in an aircooled hood with the right sized fan doesn’t put out a big amount of heat,not a huge amount of light but enough to do a about 1sq metre

My guerilla patch is nearly ready. Found a primo spot in the middle of nowhere away from everything. 10 large holes dug . I lost a fair few seeds from them not getting water while I was at work. The ones that survived 1 x Ozzy blue 2x c99 1x damoise 2x mango 3x skunk clones and 10x random bag seed sativas. The randoms will get a small hole and left to survive while the rest will be planted in my patch. Happy days

True I would have thought 600w Hps would do more. Remember he has heat issues with a small led already.

@OzCocoLoco @bobqp you guys done much outdoors in grey loamy soil with a ph of 6.5-7.0.it was a dream to dig and had bulk worms but it almost looked like lime. I was worried it was some sort of lime seem but the ph isn't to bad

He just needs a bigger fan

Never had much to do with grey loam only real sandy gritty stuff,but if there’s heaps of worms that’s a very good sign they only hang round in good soil and if it’s good digging it should be nice loose soil so the roots will have an easy time. Sounds like a good spot
