Club 600

If I was running in a 2x4 I would probably put them in a line. You could get tricky and run the light exhaust without it pulling from the tent. IE: The IN and OUT of the light aren't inside the tent. Then another 6" for the scrubbing, cooling. I wouldnt be using the 4" most likely.

I'm confused on what you mean this is how my lights are currently set up

straight line is always preferable as kinks in the duct will make hotspots and generally less effective airflow. welcome to the 600 club

Thanks bro hopefully this grow around will be just what I needed

There's an actual duct loss due to friction formula, but to not bore you, for every 90 degree bend is equal to approx. 10 ft of extra vent the air has to travel through. Example 4 90 degree bends= an extra 40 ft equivalent of pressure needed to just over come the bends..

Hey jimmer thanks for that bit of info. I don't have any bends or anything but it's good to know if I ever want to redesign a few things

Oh and get at me bro.

 

[DoobieBrother]

Not just a loss due to acute bends, but every dip in the ducting when hung from a ceiling reduces airflow fairly dramatically, too.
As well as the helical metal ribs.
I use solid pipe wherever possible.

So do you guys think this is better

if i want to switch my lights to night time,from 6am/6pm to 8pm/8am

what whould be better? full day of dark?,or full day of light?

 

[ghb]

dark!!! don't risk a reveg

i also run the lights at night, even in summer i can get away without the ac

 

[Dezracer]

Dark for me too.

Whichever was next in sequence of when I had the idea

I drew a picture too! The exhaust can go on any available port, I just drew it out the middle for space purposes. Tent space is usually a premium so I try to get as much outside of it as possible. It also drops temps that little bit more not having the fans inside it. I mainly suggested this layout because you have 2 -6" fans and a lot of watts for the space.

Forgot to add, the other foreseeable issue when you go into flower with your current setup that 6" fan is gonna put stinky air into the room.

 

[ghb]

nyc what are your temps doin in your current set up? if like me and genuity you run the lights at the coolest time of day you can get away with running one fan on constantly to do all the jobs.

some blue pit and cheese, sensible size plants here

I did this today! Just extended the dark, done it both ways never makes a difference tbh!

Should be sucking through the filter, not blowing. Right ?

Fits so far. Had to bend over the hawaiian tho.

 

[supchaka]

I push through my filter which is mounted on the other side of the wall

 

[SomeGuy]

My understanding is that either way will work but they are more efficient when pulling through them.

 

[HydroGp]

Yeah but i think your teaching to use a filter the wrong way.
I think the white outside filter is to catch stuff like dust and shiss. I know mine aint that white no more. Then might be able to change just that and grow some more.

now that is a nice full tent, the fan leaves on the bubba had me laughing!, massive and looking very healthy indeed.

 

[HydroGp]

Thx yeah the bubba is something one of a kind. The stem is thicker than any other strain ive ever grown. Seems like it is more than ready to pack some nice flowers.
