HELP! 3x3x6 Tent Ventilation with HPS Cool Tube

[Allison710]

Hi Everyone!
This is my Boyfriends & I's first grow we are using a 3x3x6 indoor grow tent we have been vegging out plants with a LED light for flower we are wanting to use a HPS bulb in a 6in cool tube we just purchased. Right now we are venting our tent with a 4in inline fan connected to our carbon filter that is vented out the top of tent. We have 2 fans circulating air in the tent and a booster fan at the bottom blowing fresh air into the tent.
We are looking to hang our new 6in cool tube and i'd love some advice on what you all recommend for ventilation.


Thank you!! :)

I built a box for a friend some time ago and for ventilation I built a small box out of plywood, cut a hole in one of the sides to screw a duct connector to, then cut a square hole in the top to mount a bathroom vent fan. You can buy them in different SCFM ratings. Then you should be able to mount your carbon filter somewhere in the lines before or after the vent fan.

That would be my suggestion. Relatively inexpensive and you can really pull some volume out of the tent. And you can find some of the fans that are whisper quiet.

Good luck.
