I agree with this . Pluss proper extraction should be completely changing the air in the room evry couple of minutes as well as bringing in fresh cO for the plants. If the extraction system isnt doing this then either something is wrong or it insufficient. The orther fans are only really for irculating air around the plants but certainly wont help with fresh air/cO, heating/cooling and humidity.
Edit. Ouoted the wrong post above. Was supposed to quote post 169

As its in the en suite theres no windows so I manage to circulate the air by leaving the door open to the bedroom and the window with a fan blowing through... the extraction fan is constantly on taking out all the old air... also the dehumidifier is also an air purifier so managing to stay on top for the past few days... RH has never gone above 44 unless I turn it off to tend to the ladies.. max or has been is 56 for about half hour per day... not alot of space in the toilet lol... the last pic is 2 of 6 candles that burn all day every day and even our guests have no clue lol.... the glass jars once boiled will do for curing so win win lol ✌✌✌ thanks for the input bud always appreciated

I see you have your extraction reversed so it pulls from the tent then blows through the filter. I guess you have to do what you have to do to keep it discrete and make it work. The plants seem to be doing well tho so thats what counts.

I dunno what I have done wrong but without all this the RH goes through the roof into 77s 80s so I stripped back everything from the tent to help improve things... I'm guessing it's the shit tent from ebay lol... but it's working ATM so fingers crossed it continues ✌✌

The filter should really be inside the tent up high and the fan sucking the air into the filter. Then blowing out of the fan.

In theory yes but most filters are designed to be used by sucking through them rather than blow into them.

the White sock over the filter (pre filter) is a dust cover to protect the carbon from getting overly dusty.

Next time is a different story as thanks to you and everyone else ibe gained a plethora of info and advice and knowledge!!✌✌

Thanks bud... do you think I'll need to support them at some point?? If so what would you suggest?? I do have a scrog bit they are all different heights so dont think that'll work?? ✌✌

The idea of a Scrog is that you lay it level over the top of them and move new growth shoots along to another square trying to put one growth site in each square.

Or you can just use it to keep them level as best you can if you wanted to use it.

other than that some simple bamboo canes from home bargains will do the trick. Saw them to the size you need when/if you need them.
