Man I am really impressed by this. So you say there isn't that much heat put out? I might do this for my next grow instead of going for a 400w hps.
 
Hey greenled this is your pnc I finnaly got an acount since u went on ur trip we used the diy carbon filter instructions to build 2 carbon filters. One coming out the top of the hydro tent and another connects to the 2 soil tents. The hydro is well into budding and hairs are everywhere. We should have new pics soon!

Pictures from May 22nd, the smaller tent is about ~3 weeks behind the larger tent and we have fans exhausting from each tent into a carbon filter and the carbon filter is wrapped in a regular household filter. Let me know what you think.

I'm an LED grower. I've been using LEDs for about 2 years now. I've found that the addition of some household CFLs make a significant difference.
Of course, I'm not using the same lights as you and there could be any number of other factors, but some CFLs might be a good idea for you as well. They're cheap and easy to get... you can connect quite a few of them to the same socket using the light socket 'Y" splitters.

Just some random drive-by suggestions.

yea you can clip some of the fan leaves that are not seeing much light but height might become an issue. I only clipped because of the height of the tents and my target yield.
 
you def got some nice herbs. this is my first time flowering inside. im using a 14w glow panel and it seems to be working out well, i veggd outside for a couple weeks till they got about a foot tall and brought them in to flower. its been 15 days today n i had some little buds growin and took a closer look today and spotted a male. i was a little bummed but i had a couple extra plants outside so i just replaced him. hopefully no more balls!

Big update today, we have 6 new clones planted in soil, and 2 4 foot 54w T5 CFL's per soil tent. Flowering is going crazy in the hydro tent, and flowering is finally starting up in one of the soil tents after changing the nutrients Fox Farm Tiger Bloom, and Big Bloom. Along with the tiger bloom and big bloom we are going to be using fox farm's open sesame, beastie bloom, and cha ching. Anyway on to the pictures!
