when the lights are off couldn't you just set the exhaust fan to run every 2 hours for 15 minutes, and keep your heat set
What size mini split to cool 4 gavidas ?

when it comes down to it I'll be the first one to say that I'm scared to run c02. I just don't understand it. Don't you need a regulator?

opps I take that back. carolinadreamin is right, big waste of power not to seal it. So I,m going to frame the whole room with ply wood then I'm going to cover that with the insulation for refridgeerators. Use that metal tape to make sure it's air tight then cover it agian with ply wood. I'm going to have a cut out for my 36000 btu ac. A tank of co2 with a regulator set to 6cfms with a tube hooked to the back of my walmont fan. Then have my co2 control box in the middle of my canopy.

I'm running co2 for sure. If I'm going to get 9 gavitas for 4500 dollars I might as well do it right.

I like to encourage people to do it. Night and day difference. Only issue i had was lights out RH at first. Im not to versed on the bottle system, I've just used a burner.

Your not gonna like this answer.
You're going to need 2 of those my man. One is enough to barely cool your room with no lights.

what is making me go with the tank is that I don't want the added heat of the burner

Your going to need atleast 2 170 pint dehumidifiers. The mini splits will keep everything in check with lights on. But when those lights turn off that humidity shoots up like a rocket.
Personally I'd put 4 in their and never worry about it.
Your looking at 15-20gs to setup this room you want properly... Or do it for 6 and never pull the yields your capable of.

That room is too big for tanks. Unless u live a block from where you refill them.
2 burners on the opposite side of the room from each other.

3 humidifiers see thats where the sealed room plan goes to shit. each dehumidifer runs 750 watts plus the 3,000 watt mini split god damn

we are planning on having it set up tax time February. it's me and a partner. so we would have around 20k to cover it. but fuck to invest that much pulling 3 lb a light would be the only way it is worth it cause now I can pull 1 and 3/4 pound a light with no co2 and not running all those dehumidfiers
