    How to automate vent opening & closing based on room temperature? Need help!

    This is similar to what I've been doing, only by manually switching the exhaust vent instead of using dampers... it works, but like you said I have to remotely monitor temps and have to constantly change the vents based on outside temps, especially during season changes or unseasonably hot/cold...

    How to automate vent opening & closing based on room temperature? Need help!

    This is perfect! One of these that's normally open + one that is normally shut + thermostat + low volt transformer and I will be in business. Is there any reason in particular you listed the one you did? I found a few cheaper with a quick search from different brands... but is there a wide...

    Need suggestions on how to monitor & remotely control my lights, heat, and AC.

    I'm looking for the cheapest solutions possible that will work, and that I can control remotely. Unfortunately I am not a computer programmer so as cool as advancednewbie's setup would be, it's out of my league.

    DWC vs Hempy Bucket

    I am looking for some opinions on which is superior yield wise between Hempy Buckets and DWC, or is the difference negligible? I run hempies now and get good results (2-4oz per plant, vegged to 18-24" in 2.5gallon buckets), but have heard that DWC can produce 2x the yield, does anyone know...

    Having serious odor problems! Need cheapest way to seal up room in basement!

    So if I have negative pressure in my flower room it doesn't really matter if it is sealed tight? I shouldn't bother with making it air tight to help make it so odor can't leak out?
