Hello everyone, I am a beginning grower looking to start as soon as possible. Currently just trying to price everything and get an idea of what my grow setup will be like. I am going to be looking for a new house to rent so I dont have any spikes in watt usage at my current house, in the new home I will be growing in a dedicated room with a grow tent. So I know what equipment I am going to use to set up my grow tent, I just need help on the ducting and ventilation part. I will be growing 10-15 indica plants (no more than 3' tall each) in a 5' x 5' x 6'11'' gorilla grow tent. I will be using a UL Listed 600w ReVolt Ballast with a 600w MH bulb (60k lumens, 5.2k color temp) during veg, and the same ballast with a 600w HPS bulb (89k lumens, 2.1k color temp) during flowering. Both lights will also be accompanied by a 6'' horizon titan air cooled reflector (26'' x 29''). (Both lights, ballast, and reflector come in a single kit on ebay). Within the tent will be 1 47'' tall circular oscillating fan and 1 35'' tall tower oscillating fan (each in an opposing corner). I will also be using a growbright 6'' tall boy inline fan & charcoal filter with my ducting. My question is, where do i vent my air to and from? I have read that venting out into an attic works well, however Im not sure where attics are typically located in a home. For example, my current attic entrance is located in the garage, are all arizona homes like this? If so, would a tent in the garage be ok? Also, what about venting air into the tent, is the air from the room it is in sufficient? Thanks for any help in advance
