if your running light of during the day timeand temps are riseing in yougrowroom then yes you wantto run a exhaust fan.:hump:
ya, i have the exhaust running and my intake fan is big and the passive holes behind that fan bring in some hottttt air during the day. Think I should keep the intake fan off during the day and just leave exhaust on? Would it be worth shocking the plants to get them on during day and off at night?

If I was to just leave the exhaust/intake off during the day then how often would I need to switch them on for to exchange air?

it's some wall mount fan that I got from lowes, but I threw out the box and it doesn't have it on the site. I'm going to guess it's around 300-400 cfm and it's a large fan about 12" blade to blade..it blows air in almost every direction of the room. It's prob about a good 6ft+ from the plants and the ceilings are 8'

bah ya it was too big i'll get one up in a bit...it's a big room, 14x10x8. I've been keeping the intake off during the day, but leave the exhaust on. Is exhaust safe to keep off for that long when I'm already 5 weeks into flowering? or maybe just have the exhuast on for 15 min sat a time
