I really can't understand why these rectangular vents were built into every grow tent I have seen, it doesn't make any sense to me. They are nothing but potential light leaks and even if you cover them with the velcro stuck covers there is still potential for light to leak because I covered mine as well as I could and could still see light through the velcro. Yes, slight negative pressure is good and I know if you are exhausting your air in your tent with a big fan then you need good air intake, but I have always found that you can either put 6" flexible duct in some of the skirted holes, as many as needed, or you can add a fan that blows in just a little less CFM than the fan pulling the air out.
Working hard to keep from having lights leaks is a big pain, so why create light leaks by adding those stupid rectangular vents? It's a totally foolish idea in my opinion, but maybe someone has an idea why those vents are in all tents.
P.S.
Even Gorilla brand duct tape does not like to stick to the surface of most of these tents, not does aluminum HVAC tape. Yes, I was taping my vents shut light tight!
