Get her something or do something extra nice. Distract her with romantic stuff... Let her get away with some shit you dont necessarily like?

I had a brief period of growing in a 2x2 converted refrigerator in our bedroom for a year or so. lol. It didnt go over well either. Its like if they can hear it, it drives them nuts lol.

What about it exactly doesnt she like? Just the sound? the risk? the smell? The copious amounts of ganja?

I'm assuming you stuffed the box with some sort of insulation.
But knowing if it's the sound from the inline or a rattle etc would help.

Tell her she is right and that you will buy all your weed at a dispensary from now on. Should only cost 10x more than growing with a little fan noise.

Her choice!

They'll keep growing, just trying to make it easier on my end haha turbine sounds like it's starting to wobble out so I get it but like the other member says it showed effort right?

It ain't no rattle, it's the decibal level.. fan came with a potentiometer, it's on low... Love to eliminate it but damn she stinks in such a good way!!! Mmmm, don't bother me haha daughter drives a different approach. I work but mom is home and it's loud.. can't eliminate it... need it, led puts off too much heat, sitting at 73 bottom and 76 top fan running 24/7...

Might look at what some of the guys that do decibel competition builds in cars. Those guys know how to seal in air and eliminate unwanted vibrations pretty damn good. But, as has been said. Get it off the floor.

Kinda like a fish tank air pump, if it's on the floor/shelf/wall, it'll make all kinds of racket. Suspend it somehow and it's damn near silent. Otherwise, put a carbon filter/muffler on the exit of the fan and crank it up. Still, get the box off the floor and insulate it more.

Can't amplify sound if it's not touching anything.

Insulated ducting/ hard rigid ducting. Accordion ducting is loud as hell. Wrapping the fans/tent in blankets helps. Duct mufflers/carbon filters reduces the noise from air movement quite a bit also.

Buy a fan that runs at lower level of sound , use temp control which can cut the noise fan speed controller as well .

Car audio guys use tar-mat for vibration reduction in the panels of the cars for competing to stop the panels from creasing under that kind of pressure.... We used to wrap the Focus in toe straps when the quarter panels bent the year before lol
