Grow number two, making space

i took the plastic off mine. Thank you for noticing and telling me because clearly I didn’t read the sticker on it that says to take it off. I was fairly promptly met with alarms because turning the oven to 550 F for a couple of hours makes things...

It looks great! Couple of quick questions.



Is the yellow vent closed? And where is your intake? I would suggest purple vent but I'm not certain on that. Just how I set my tent up.

Edit. The other side. Not purple. Damn it.

Vent on top is open for intake. Flaps on both sides aren’t up but aren’t secured. There are no yellow or purple anything.

He can oversee. I wasn’t wanting fragile little plastic being beat upon.

Ok now the yellow and purple make sense. Sorry. Lol. Yes yellow is open for intake. Opposite of purple vent as well as purple vent are down but not secured.

I love little personalized touches in grow rooms like that.

So in my opinion, you want your intake to be at the bottom and your exchange out to be at the top. This way the plants get the CO2 rich, cool air from outside the tent (relatively speaking), use up the CO2 as the warm air moves up, and then the fan pulls it out of the tent.

Does that make sense? I could draw arrows if it's unclear what I am trying to say. Again, this is just my thought on it, not what I know is "right."

Because of walls and placement, there aren’t many options. The “purple” vent is actually against a wall as is the back of the tent. So I could place the carbon filter on the floor of the tent and the exhaust through the currently open vent (for intake). I just wasn’t getting up on a chair. I fall just standing still.

Are you going to run constant passive air intake ?

That’s the plan. Though I suppose I could give it a little help and put one of those little clip on fans in front of the left vent flap for some assistance.

I think if I have the energy tomorrow I’ll flip the fan and filter so the exhaust is up and carbon by the top left port which will be open.

Oh sorry i put in an edit...i think I would do the other side...but I don't think it matters much since functionally you are at the middle where the air is getting sucked into the filter/fan and then out of the tent. So long as it's from the bottom and out the top, it should be good.

Already done. Smoked a joint, had a snack, got some energy. Should I leave that port in the upper left open for passive intake? I also added the humidifier outside one of the vents because the humidity is struggling to get above 45%. It’s on the same timer cycle as the light.

I admit i havent been following along but intake needs to be low so cooler fresh air flows up through the plants and exhausts out up high.
