Hey Cannapharm,

Question in return, the radiant 6"hood, is that a cool hood? I am surprised that you can only have it 15 inches away! If that's the case perhaps you just need a stronger fan pulling air through that.
I am still pondering on my own air set up and how to change that. I was pulling air over my lights before from outside the room, and then also pulling air into the room from outside previously but I have changed up again...still not 100% though.

I would be veering towards b and c.

SO, who can assist me in making a decision on how to cool a 3x3 tent?

Current set up: ->carbon filter->radiant 6" hood->6" 400cfm fan into exhaust duct which goes into a diff room.
temps stay same as outside, however, i cannot get the light lower than 15" from cannopy.(some pics of current set up are few pages back)

Goal is to have it around 5" away from the plants, assuming outside temps are around 75.

My tent has holes in the bottom which are used as fresh air intake (tent does create neagtive pressure)

Should I:

(* $$$=opportunity cost)

A) Add a 4" 175cfm INTAKE fan, have it blow completely from the ground and close the "holes" that the tent comes with? ($ fan)

B) Have the 6" fan pull thru the hood only. A 4" fan (with temp reg) sucking out thru the filter (i.E. once the temp gets to 80 or whatev). ALL connected to a Y split ($$ fan, temp reg, Y split thingy)

C) Get an 8" fan, connect to 6" duct (if possible) and leave as is?

i dont want to be stuck w/ bunch of fans if i ever decide to add co2

pics are available, for those who are serious about discussing/ helping.....


Thanks yall!!

Yea it is a cool hood. But you know, I figured 3x3 w/ a 400cfm fan will be plenty.,..apparently not lol Option C should do it, are the 8" much loader than the 6"? Thanks DST

Summers coming up hotter temps. Self made tent like setup with a hps600. Have two oscillating fans but still kind of humid. Either need a dehumidifier or some ducting to connect to hps and connects to fan which then will have another duct leadig outside to fresh air. Second floor no windows. But I see that kitchen fan or the bathroom fan has tube lading out to roof. And has a part on side to connect a duct will that work? Dot want to cu a hole on roof or side of house. Howto cool? Air conditiner probably wl run up bill. And swampcooler nay cause too much humidty. How to co0l? Help!

Hello my fellow Roger 600 Watters, tis I your long lost sibling heads up. Sorry about the absence from the thread. Now what on earth could be more important to a guy stoner than weed? Yup, that's it guys. I am in pursuit of some cooter, damn things can be tough to catch.

My 12/12 from seed is going real well. The girls never got over about fourteen inches, that half gallon grow bag in the beginning really did restrict their growth. So for anyone who has height restrictions, use smaller containers, it works. My arjan's haze clone is doing ok, looks like it's going to die any day, just like her mother looked when she was alive, but the smoke is powerful hazy. All my bud from the sativa grow is finally cured and I couldn't be happier. The arjan's haze just flat out makes you stupid and laugh, the strawberry haze is a bit more intraspective, the sour cream, lemony taste and a nice up buzz and finally the malawi, nice red nugs and plenty of them, sweet and uplifting.

Summer is already here in florida, been hot for the past two weeks. With all the insulation I blew into my attic over the winter and the foam sheet insulation I put up on the outside walls of my grow room, the temps stay right around seventy eight at their highest. I have a 6000 btu window air conditioner that I keep set on seventy and it does the trick.

Good work lads, the bud porn is great.

And masonman my friend, much luck with your outdoor ladies.

Peace
heads up

AOA just barely. What a trip that was to the land of smote. Took up some trainwreck clones getting my lid in the cloner cleared out. Im just happy to be alive today peeps. Seems my bro from another mother is on self destruct mode. Its getting quite scary being in the mountains with a raging drunk driving like theres no ditch to rollover in at 90-100plus. I do believe my outdoor days with this crowd is over.

Its aight i got another spot to go to anyways. People who think more like me.

Just rolling in peeps gotta catch a few ZZZs Peace 1bmm.

i would flip them when ever u want a foot tall is good though u dont want them to tall. also mabye cut a branch or 2 from the very bottom of the plants it looks like theri is one down theri in nothin but shade just my opinion though.

also this week here in oregon we have boatnik kinda like a small fair and lots of people well i went down their for 5 mins to get some food and i already wanted to leave nothin but a bunch of white wanna be thugs who talk shit and cant back it up.well i left after 5 mins. so i got hoe went to bed and woke up the enxt morning to find my windsheild busted in by some fuckin punks i dont even know or probably wont catch cuz theri is at least 2000 people walk by my house for boatnik. i just hate lil punks thats all

Heads Up, good to see you bru. Glad as is well.

Blower, I would say buy a cool tube (not sure if you done that) and if temps are a prob, air seal you set up and make sure that the air going in is controlled, and the air going out is controlled.

1BMM, so have you lost the plants you put down or will you get them?

DST I still go em. I get a vibe from the peeps in the mix that i may get ripped for my shit come harvest. Ill still finish out the crop, but as for another season I doubt that. Got just about 50 plants that didnt get dug up or die off. Mostly the survivors are purps. And i got a few of each strain dotted in there too.

Lastnight there was an angel riding with us. I cannot believe we didnt die in a rollover. My bro from another mother started hitting the scotch almost soon as we got there. I tried to keep him from driving but he became buligerant and insisted that he was ok to drive. Now I know better but i agree since we didnt have far to go. STUPID. He started off fine and then its like he just said fuck it i wanna die tonight. Im talking 90-100 mph easy on gravel roads sideways and when thought we should have been dead the mother fucker hits a ditch and throws us in a high peed spinout. I jumped out and walked my ass the rest of the way. Anyways my bro is a good dude hes just a fucking idiot. He lost his mom to cancer a year ago and has been on a downward spiral ever since. Nothing i can say will snap him out of the self destruct mode. Hes really a fucking idiot on that whiskey.

Now peeps ive been in high speed crashes twice before and been through 2 windsheilds had broken ribs and my teeth knocked out. Nearly died from a bruise on my heart. My bro knows this and he still took my life and rolled the fucking dice with it. Im done. I dont have a death wish like him. From now on ill be driving myself and staying sober, as i kinda did this trip. Just a few beers, no whiskey for me.

Another reason for my wanting to pull the plug is that his family is all the same way. Raging drunks. and once they get a few glugs of that shit in em they all start talking in code and shit. I dont like it. Im a quite inteligent person with a good heart and my gut tells me it time to pull out. Ill be going up a few more times on my own most likely to feed them. If i get ripped i wont be hard to find out whos behind it. And i guarantee ya. I dont ever fuck anybody over EVER. If you fuck me, You better hide or run far away cuz ill get yo ass. And it aint gonna be a bitch slap. Anyways peeps thats the situation. The plants are doing ok. The early ones that we got in the ground have gotten huge already. I got 4 of the purps at about 3ft tall already. And they seem to be starting to bud which i dont get. They arent getting as much sunlight as I would like but im not one who believes in cutting down living trees to get light in. They will likely yeild less. I dont really care. At first i was motivated to provide for my family. Ill take what ever i can get. Peace 1BMM

On a happier note. Another bro of mine is trying his hand at the outdoors. Hes got a nice spot and plenty of room for the rest of my clones.
I think me and him are gonna partner up and go from there. Now ive been through alot of shit with this dude from gang bangin and pimping to all out mobbin on rival gangs back in the 80s and early 90s. We have alot in commin and have both straightened out our lives other than what we are forced to do to survive this recession. I think this is going to be my next move. Hope it works out. Peace 1BMM

1BMM: Sounds like harvest time you need to go up and do some guerilla harvesting, before the rest get their hands on it....Was out at the weekend cycling around trying to find some spots for my girls. Getting paranoid with them on my terrace....bit too many plants at home at the minute. Found one place, but there were a couple of dead rats...not sure if I put my girls down that they rats will munch em!

Thanks Jig, that's one colourfull looking pic you posted. Is that the last of the querkle before you take it down?

Have a good week folks, and McP, knowing Jig, I would probably say that is a Jig hair, or may be one of the cats, hehe.

Laters,

D

It is one last pic... sorta. Stuff is still growing. I lag at harvesting stuff. They aren't getting anymore water though. The waterfall in my room has finally stopped.

And yeah... it's a cat hair, or two. Can't really help it. This is actually the least hairy harvest yet. Guess I'm doing something right.
