Hello Guy's

I Growing for 2 Year now in 1 Tent 60x60x160cm with 3 x Cob led all together 155 watts. Temps in my tent in a hot Summer maybe 25-30 but not longer than a week ore two.

Now i want a new tent to my 60x60 i need more weed :D to much Seeds for not enough place xD so why not a second 60x60x160cm tent? I belive i can combination both tents together and let the Fan work for both tents together what you think?

I have 1 fan for 2 tents :)
It’s very simple, you just need ducting splitter.
Set night in one tent while it’s day in second one then it’s gonna be easier to control the temperature.
I’ve got 600watt hps in a bigger tent and 400watt in a smaller and 600m3/h fan. Avarage temp. is 28’C

There might be a problem with humidity then. Once I tried without splitter. I put air ducting into that hole in the roof(smaller tent) and pulled to bottom hole(air intake) in large tent. Humidity was twice higher than with ducting splitter, but if it’s day in both tents there is too hot.

No, you need another air ducting and Y ducting splitter :)
If you make it as well as it’s on my photo it’ll be perfect

You ever had gear fail?.. Itll be interesting if and when the tents heat up when the fan dies... Some strains can take it pretty good though

It’ll be disaster not intresting ;)
Yeah once fan died in my tent. What have I done? Turned lights off and bought new one as soon as I could. Now I’ve got another one spare inline fan in my shed
But if it’s one tent and one fan it can die as well as in combo 2 tents 1 fan.

I keep spare fans and ballasts... Those 2 will screw you better than anything if you have to wait for the mail... I have shut down the whole tent for 3 days before waiting on mail and they were fine in veg and flower but its stress to them and me

I grow in a spare room. Windows are blacked out, so I leave the flaps open and use a floor standing 18" circulating fan which handles 3 tents

since hot air rises, I flip the tent skins upside down, eposing the side flaps. Also use leds which do not throw the heat of hps/hid//cmh

Here’s my answer, two 4x4 tents, one six inch inline fan (max fan), custom cardboard junction boxes, flanges made of aluminum flashing pieces. (Way less expensive and smaller than HD variety). But not growing over the summer inside.

LED does create heat, just not as much and instead of blasting a lot of the heat down, with leds it goes up only and is much easier to evcuate
