Buddy may I also add that you watch you watch your electricity. That was my biggest concern other than the smell for me. all together the 400w is pulling around 3.5A and the 600w 5A. Thats 8.5A where it is recommended that we only pull around 11.5-12A from our regular wall outlet. Fire is much...

First i would like to say that I am in no way, shape, or form an expert. Just another new guy here reading and learning. Came across an article that explained PH to me so here is my attempt to make a simple explanation for other guys in my situation. Everyone is screaming pH, pH, pH but do we...

Has any one ever had a problem with Xfinity snooping around their home looking for RFI? Just came across an article, http://bigbudsmag.com/grow/article/marijuana-Comcast-Xfinity-HID-digital-ballast-grow-room , that worried me a little bit. I just signed up for service at the beginning of this...

True. Here's my dilemma... I have my 4x4x7 in my completely enclosed closet. Is there anyway I can get away with just a hole for an exhaust? No big deal if its necessary. If it was your space how would you vent? Thanks man your info is greatly appreciated.

Thanks for the info bro. I experimented with some different hydro systems and had to do away with it off the simple fact of noise and humidity. Not to mention i have some of the nosiest neighbors america has to offer. So no running water here. Humidity was the biggest problem. Ran a 4 pot rdwc...

Im going to just vent constantly. I have a 440cfm fan on the way with a speed controller. Setup is gonna be naked 600w HPS hanging vert and my fan filter in the corner. Im hoping if i can find a "sweet spot" with my fan that will allow me to run without a ac or dehumidifier like ttystikk. Are...

Same thing I thought. Theres one thing I realized tho... You guys HAVE grown I'm just trying to get into the game. Its always good to get sound advice from ppl that know their stuff. Not that it wasn't good advice... I made a judgment call. 440cfm is what I've ordered so hopefully running bare...

Thanks for the info. How do you control the humidity?

Come on now... just GROW up

- Ima quit... after this next joint -

Whats up RIU have a couple questions about growing vertical. I see a lot of ppl not running cool tubes with a vertical bulb with their plants practically touching! Some of you guys here were born to grow lol. How does it work? Is it recommended to just use a house fan to cool the light? In my...

Yea you're right. In my part of the country summers can be brutal. 100 degrees easy. Looking for a 6" that's around 440cfm. If not I guess it's going to be the huge 8" fan with around 720cfm. Better safe than sorry I guess. With the extra cfm will I be able to be less than a foot from the tops?

The only reason I'm even getting a speed controller is for the noise. It's my understanding that with a 400cfm fan hooked up to light and filter may still need to be slowed down due to noise. Is this right?

Definitely interested in the outcome. Odour filtration and temp control scare me the most. The fan will sit inside the box correct? Think I seen one hanging from bungees in a sticky somewhere. How much does the speed controller affect temperature on the light and space overall?

14 db? Wow is it even on? Lol.

Definitely an option. I've seen them on amazon and eBay and the price is right up my alley. Glad I'm not the only one thinking of them. How does it handle smell bro?

T The tent is not the problem at all. The tent is 48x48x78 so I had less than 6 inches between my ceiling and my tent. Never thought to put fan inside of tents. Rookie here. Going to have to make a hole to vent exhaust from. Will a 400cfm fan be strong enough, or recommended, for this setup -...

Thanks for the info man. I thought I could get away with a fan filter rated for 190cfm to cool the light and attach to the filter. Well I'm on a tight budget and an even tighter space. The tent is 4'x4' and so is the space so it's a tight squeeze. Only have less than a foot of overhead with the...

The real question is... Is it possible to use a duct fan instead of the inline fan. Space is an issue and it looks more efficient for a small grow tent

If this article is true then I only need 16-32cfm for the tent itself. Your saying a 600w light and a filter would require roughly 200cfm?
