Hi there,
I was seeking some opinions/advice on getting my setup setup.
what I have - two tents (4x4 and 4x8 both 80tall). 3 lights @ 400 watts in 4x8 - 1 in the 4x4 (same light)
3 - 4” inline fans, 4 carbon filters, 2 mufflers.
Things to consider -
limited space outside tent, window vent height/location is fix, 5’ run of pipe to the window.
I want to keep noise down as much as I can
4x8 tent - ‘females and young plants only, 12/12 lights for light dep. in summer and supplement in winter. Must keep pollen out.
4x4 tent - used for longer days for young plants, also for males/pollinating ‘activities’, seedling germination, drying. Light can help keep flower tent warmer in winter and probably won’t cause problems during summer nights. Not really concerned with temps in this tent but it can help maintain temps in flower tent
some ideas I put down just to get a better idea of possibilities.
window intake (~top right).
Intake is from bedroom, bottom left, out window at top right.
I think I like ‘B’ the best, have the window be ‘passive’ and 2 exhaust fans for the 4x8 out the top. Inline fan with carbon filter on both sides and hepa filter to connect the tents.
only issue is pollen getting into main tent. I was looking and you can get hepa filter fabric for fairly y cheap, will that stop pollen?
any thoughts?
