So I just got my first electric bill whilst running my tent and it was a shocker. I've got a 600 HPS running 12/12, 2 small clip fans running all the time, and a 440 CFM inline fan running at 1/4 speed all the time. After calculating the wattage and my low cost of electricity (.05/kwh) things don't add up. The main variable here is that my tent is in a small room I created in my garage and is being heated by a 1500w space heater. Obviously, this is where the electric is being spent. So my question to you fine folks...any Macgyver style ideas on how to keep the room heated in the winter with something other than this god damned electric sucking space heater?
I keep the space heater outside of the tent, so it's heating up the small space as opposed to the tent...could I move it IN the tent? I feel like that might be A. dangerous and B. bad for the plants.
Any and all ideas/advice are welcome...because the way things are going I'm going to have to only grow in the spring/summer if I can't figure out a solution.
