Homemade swamp cooler?

[Noobiegrow]

I'm having trouble with 2 problems in my 2x4 tent too high of heat and too low humidity. I don't want to have to buy an A/C for it. Would a home made swamp cooler do the job?

 

[One drop]

Passive air intake will help . Od .

Wouldn't that be the same thing as a swamp cooler? I'm just adding ice in between the tent and the fan

Use exhaust fan run 24 /7 to draw cool fresh air in through bottom of tent I use a tube covered in black stocking then put it in the round hole at bottom of tent close up the draw strings tight round the tube shut up tent you got passive air .

I have the vents open on the bottom of the tent. Same thing as passive air?
Edit: I have a 4inch exhaust fan running 24/7 already in a 2x4x6 tent

Getting ready to flip them into flower and don't want them to get too hot and foxtail

Good to see plants up off tent floor yes in a way I tape all mine up and only draw through one round one it saves opening an closing the flaps the exhaust fan dose 2 jobs then sucking hot air out drawing cool air in . I guess your going to have to experiment to see how you can make it work good luck .od

Thanks for the advice first grow here and I'm already this far don't want to mess it up now. Already had to get rid of thrips

By all means make the cooler that will cool outside the tent I'm taking it you have your tent in a room

Yes it's in my bedroom. And I was going to run it straight into the tent

If you cool your room down which is your tents lungs I think you will see a difference let the passive air draw the cooling air through the tent . Do you exhaust into your celling or into the room

If you were going to try to use an evaporative cooler they are simple to make diy if youre interested pm me. but you could defintely do with just a bit more airflow.
