Always add extra 20 percent AC when figuring out AC due to efficency of AC unit
Well I just harvested my crop :cool:
that's just Toaster's way of saying he had a wank ;)
ur air cooled hoods aint gonna do shit if all ir doin is dumpin it into the warehouse and suckin the air back in the rm.OK I understand my gavita room it's my first year with gavita but my air cooled hoods should be cooler. At this rate I should just take of glass and run it. I been growing for a while now almost 4 years, it's almost goingot to be a year in indoor I haven't done this durin summer. Plants were stressed and neglected while I was working on project.
So I'm thinking about taking air from wharehouse running threw hoods exhaustingredients out wharehouse. Than just have an 8 inch on filter scrubbing the room. Add a 16kbtu for gavita room (portiable) but I really have a feeling that the air cooled rooms will still be hot.
I can technically offord more amps. Sound like I just need to double my unit. That's what I was trying to avoid. I wanted to make a veg/preveg room with the remainder amps I have
question to gnome out of curiosity do you have a garden at home..(like outside and shit)lol:cool: just wandered if you have outside plants(regular plants like bulbs and shrubs and the like, they are probably mahoosive and lush ..) or is it inside gardening for you all the way!!!:greyalien:
sweet see i knew it.... I've got an allotment which needs some attention and got a lovely front garden i will try get some photos up sometime.. you will be jealous of the view from my front door. nothing beats growing outside. I've got some oaks I've been growing from seed too, for bonsai..!!
Sounds like the answer is exhausting the air outside of his growing space more so than adding more ac, how can you expect to have your area getting cooler when you're exhausting your hot air right back into it!? What's the point in even running the fans? Just take off the glass, turn 'em off and run ac's if you're gonna do that. My 2 cents.Cuz ur dumpin the heat ur pullin outta the hoods right back into ur growrm. U sed it urself man. Use ur head......u dont have enough amps to run that many lights and an adequate amount of ac. Lets talk options. ...more ac less heat.

I gotta tell ya....that makes absolutely no sense lolI would exhaust the air into the wharehouse because if I exhausted outside I would get the hotter air from outside coming in

This is just what I thought at the time with what I was working with. All week it's 110f outside my rooms only get to 90 Max, if I exhausted outside new air will come in at 110f. But I'm definitely changing things up after today.
Well now I want to do sealed no exhaust; and add co2 but i want to try to get the temps to 85 so i dont need to buy another 7k $ unit. I wouldny only need 1 portiable for my gavita room. But the 3 air cooled rooms I'm going to use wharehouse air and exhaust outside. Hopfully with doing that and taking out the exhaust. ( exhaust was connected to lights im changing that so that filter and fan will just help recirculate the air in the room.Ya gotta decide what kinda rm ur runnin....sealed w ac or exaust. Cant do both
If u think co2 is gonna help the temperature situation i think ur in for a surprise. If ur usin generators its only gonna add more heat. A lot more....wtf kinda ac are you spendin 7k on? I have a 2 1/2 ton unit 36k btui spent like 1500 on.....Well now I want to do sealed no exhaust; and add co2 but i want to try to get the temps to 85 so i dont need to buy another 7k $ unit.

Yesterday I tested it ( I took off exhaust and just has the hoods cooled with circulating wharehouse air and let inline just keep filtering the room and the temp went up 5f.
I thought it would drop with the AC air stayin in but i just have a feeling no matter what I need to upgrade ac for all rooms
