Noma but they are garbage. I'm grabbing a new one shortly, it was recommended by a fellow grower @Dirtbag and has auto restart.
You can find several that have that option just be sure to confirm that it has it
The one I linked has a baffle that stops anything coming back in.Ok perhaps I was a bit paranoid yes lots of people have window ac and swamp coolers all around me then in my unit it's all central ac/heat......
Once I got back temps rose and the tent is running normal..... but it wont stay that way I just panicked lol.... ok so I need the window ac ducting and to get a piece that keeps rain and anything coming back in the ducting....
I have good air to come in that's no problem and it doesnt snow where I am so it wont be that badOne thing to add is make sure you also have makeup air coming into the room. If you vent outside you need to have that same volume of air coming back into the house/room from outside somewhere. can be a window in another room or something. This can make wives/girlfriends very unhappy in the winter.
And this is where balancing a tent can get tricky. In my experience its trickier than managing the environment in a much larger dedicated grow room. Its arguably easier to just vent the tent into the room and control conditions in the room rather than the tent.
I cant buy this one it says it cant be delivered where I amOne way is to get an inline fan and carbon filter and ducting. Now they sell these window fittings that fit in sliding windows for single and duel hose AC's so if people have AC around you this will look like nothing more than an AC vent.
Hang the filter in the tent, connect the fan to the filter then the ducting to the AC window vent.
This is a window AC vent for portable AC units. There are lots of different ones.

Just look for another... There are lots out there. I think they are all 4" but just double check first.I cant buy this one it says it cant be delivered where I am
Yeah I'm trying to find a setup.... I might have to get a 6" to 4" converter of some type if they are all 4"Just look for another... There are lots out there. I think they are all 4" but just double check first.
There are probably 6" too if you have 6" then look for that.Yeah I'm trying to find a setup.... I might have to get a 6" to 4" converter of some type if they are all 4"
There’s an argument? LolOne thing to add is make sure you also have makeup air coming into the room.

So I'm curious in the last pic I posted... with autoflower I've read I'm not supposed to prune at all and I havent but the bottom leaves that are kinda draping the res it would be alot easier for me with the growth I've had recently to take them off.... plus with other plant experience these are the same ones I cut off small trees and plants... so if I can prune some which ones am I safe trimming?There’s an argument? Lol
Imo I wouldn't trim anything that isn't resting on top of something. But if they are resting on the res then I would. Not sure your light schedule thinking 20/4? But if your going to remove anything do it at lights out so the plant has some time to recover before lights on.So I'm curious in the last pic I posted... with autoflower I've read I'm not supposed to prune at all and I havent but the bottom leaves that are kinda draping the res it would be alot easier for me with the growth I've had recently to take them off.... plus with other plant experience these are the same ones I cut off small trees and plants... so if I can prune some which ones am I safe trimming?
Ok so I have a small bathroom window I opened it and now it's just cracked and my system has finally balanced... to the point where inline is on and off instead of solid on but still have to get the window kit and put the vent out that side and leave bathroom window cracked for fresh.... for now its working...There’s an argument? Lol

Thats an interesting point....I always did it at night to reduce the stress of the plant during lights on. I understand there are different processes from day/night going on but I was not aware that tissue repair was affected and was of the mindset that stressed plants reduce efficiency in photosynthesis. I'm open to that thought process and going to do some digging to see if i can find anything on thisI was taught to always pull leaves from greenhouse plants at the beginning of the light cycle.
For several reasons but the main ones being; the plant is actively growing and making energy in the daytime so that's when tissue repair is the most efficient, and pruning leaves at night leaves an open wet wound when the plant is most vulnerable to infection from pathogens like PM etc. You never want an open wet wound in the dark cycle if it can be avoided.

Ok that would make sense but i would attribute it to move favorable conditions for IPM. cooler temps and higher humidity also usually still air. I'm looking but nothing either wayLet me know what you come up with. It's been over 20yrs since I sat in a classroom but that's how I remember it. But I have smoked a lot of pot since then haha.
I just remember my prof telling me about it in a class on IPM. Specifically the PM prevention aspect of it. But I do recall something about the plants metabolism and carbohydrate depletion making it work to repair itself at night.
There’s an argument? Lol
