Hey,
I am trying to figure out what to do for air flow.
i got 2X 120mm pc fans shooting air out, and 1X 120mm and 80mm fan for intake
BUTT I dont have the 120 mm intake one on, because its to strong and will knock my babies over.
So the room gets hot with the 80mm not directly shooting air on the babies.
What should i do? I also live in a super hot state, so i cant even close my closet door.
I have to leave it open :(
I need ideas/ help thx guys!

well i live in AZ (lake Havasu) its very hott here i leave my closet door open. maybe you should take those 4 lil ones out and put a fan from the room shooting into the closet for some cooler air from the ac and what not. i got a lasko 42' fan in my room that gives "cooler air" into my closet, and i use a little honeywell fan inside the closet, my babies love their life

Hey guys...I have a box built of wood about like yours, however, I have two exaust fans on my top right and I drilled 1/2 inch holes on the bottom opposite side to draw intake air (fresh). I have a small fan inside the box on the floor blowing to build the girls strength up for the heavy fruit that it is putting on. Now this set up is in a garage in the south and it probably gets 85 inside box with 45% humidity, unless I just fed them, then it may go up to 53%. I have my door screwed on so sealed well. I use 2-125 watt floros, and 5- 27 watt floros. Looking really green and filling in quite nicely. Just my two cents.

The reason your seedlings are weak and falling over is that you don't have enough light and/or the lights are too far. Also, the air intake of your cab should be passive, just make holes at the bottom on the opposite side of the cab and lose the fans. I also suggest just painting your cab white instead of messing around with foils and mylars.

the light looks 2 far away. it needs to be basically on top of the plants to keep them short and stocky
