Wood stove for hear source

[Skeggox]

So the temps are dropping off and I'm needing to heat a little when lights are out. Could using a wood stove during flower make the buds taste like a camp fire?

with a wood stove you cant control temp it will get too hot and the heat from a wood stove is gonna make your air dry

get a propane heater they wont dry out the air as much and u can get a heater with thermostat to control the heat

A good wood stove that doesn't leak and easy to control wood be fine. A good pellet stove with thermostat would be even better.

What size grow room are you trying to heat? A wood stove is not good consistent heat source. The more variables you can control in environment the better. I use a small electric heater in my tent when it’s cold out and I can keep good consistent temps without having to add wood or worry about major temp swings that you will get with wood stove.

he is talking about when there is no power

In that case a small kerosene heater would be better than wood stove

If it makes your house smell like a camp fire, you need to clean the pipe or get a better stove. I used wood heat for decades and the house never smelled like smoke.

Wood tends to really dry the air. If you do, keep a close eye on your RH.

Temperature control with a wood stove can be done. - To a certain degree. Having ample air intake, hot gas exhaust, and good control over BOTH parameters, makes it possible. Getting it dialed in is up to the user.

It is in a seperate room from the grow but in the same building

Gotcha. It's a 5x5 room in my garage. So the wood heater is in a seperate room. I'm just looking at throwing on a few logs on to keep the chill off. I run HID so I have a heater when the lights are on lol.

That could work being in a different room. You could run ducting from room with wood stove to grow room with in-line fan during lights off. Just a thought
