My 3x3 runs a 6" hyper fan and phresh filter and I have a clip on fan up top and a walmart floor fan on the floor blowing up. The 6" hyper fan is overkill but I like having more fan than I need and running it at a lower speed for less noise. YMMV

Do you use the hyper fan for a intake or a exhaust?

I don't use fans for intake I use passive intakes. That is I leave a vent open somewhere. My hyper fans are hooked up to my carbon filters and exhaust.

I use those too with the Phresh filters. I am on year 3 with one and still no weed smell getting through. And I dry and filter the air in the growroom closet through them.

But this summer I added an intake fan and it made a pretty big improvement.

One of my favorite upgrades as of recently. I was using an ipower amazon 4" kit before. Hooked up to a variac speed controller. I much prefer the hyper fan setup. It pulls less power and is quieter and includes the speed controller as well.

How do you not get light leaks when you leave a vent open?

 

[Evil-Mobo]

I don't put my HPS though the vent bro lol

When it's time to replace any bulb... that fixture will be getting retired, and it will be replaced w/ a cob led.

THAT'S what I like to hear! Your only regret will be waiting so long.

hahah i know. I'm talking about for the passive intake and light from outside the tent. Cause my tent is going to be in my bedroom.

I saw these a year ago. Crap then, crap now.

I have a spare room so no light leak issues. You just need to have your "on" time set for a schedule that works for you and stay out when it's lights out. I do not go into my tents for anything when it's lights out. My intake is away from any light source anyways. And honestly I'm not a freak about light leaks like most. If the light off of my portable A/C or some coming in through an intake is going to somehow mess up a genetic I have flowering, then that is not a genetic I want to keep running.

Just my opinion.

I mean i live in a pretty small apartment and i cant not go in my room on off hours (i spend alot of time im my room). I know not to open up tents on night hours. lol =P WHat would be MY best route, in your(or anyone else's) best opinion.

Set your lights out for when you sleep..........................

I have used short sections of ducting for passive intakes. It helps with light.

Thats what i was thinking about doing or getting a booster and getting a exhaust fan.

I wanted to believe this was a good plan for quite a while. Problem is. All of the most sensitive plants have been the best ones to smoke. So I maintain a dark room with only weak green light used in the dark cycle.

And I still have to get used to seeing some stamen here and there because of the weed I like best.

Beware pushing air with a booster, if odor control is important, as one can give
a tent a positive air pressure with can cause leaks of air/smell.

Good luck,

Sure I read that green light is not much safer to use than a normal light. I also recall somebody grew something or other using green spectrum or what not.

It only takes one fuck-up to become one of those "freaks" you speak of...

Very low intensity green light. The LED display on my light controller in there is green light even.
