How do you connect 2 tents together without sharing light cycles?

[tommyinajar]

2 tents in a big room. I want to lay some fiberboard insulation around the tent and share a room AC and Dehumidifier, BUT 1 tents veg 1 is flower. No
I can't not use the tent and just the room...x

You just need to build a light filter for the flower tent, so that external light can't enter it at lights off, but air can.

It can be built from cardboard. I ran 2 tents in one room for quite a while like this, just fine.

2 tents?? That's easy!


Settle down, and take an anxiety pill.

This
Build a serpentine box that captures all the light. Neighbors could not see my 600 HPS from my exhaust box.

for those of you doing this, how are you managing the environment for each tent? self controlled ac and dehumidier for lung room and then controllers for a humidifier in each tent?

Just need to put a light baffle in front of the air intake screens. Gonna be doing the same here soon too.

In the winter when it's dry I'll have a humidifier running in both tents. The rest of the year just a dehumidifier in the flower tent.

Filter it or regret it.

 

[tommyinajar]

Filter it with....what kind of filter? Will breathable fabric work or does it have to be a micron one?
I'm really wondering about that light filter build, Light was coming thru my vent hose and that was in an S shape.

with minimal effort, you could use one tent and divide it off with a thick tarp and velcro tape.

done it. now i have veg running outside the length of the tent and, behind a velcro tape-sealed tarp, I have plants vegging along the width of my larger bloom tent. each veg area has its own lights. the bigger challenge is keeping track of how many amps you're using in a 15-20A circuit.

each area has its own fans.

Yea I'm lucky a bit, I have 2 15A in one room, but still had to run a 12 gauge extension cord, I still blew breakers, I had a 600 and 1000 watt heatbombs, but I bit the $1700 bullet and got an octopus and a spider farmer- LOL 3 years ago, I laughed at LEDs replacing bulbs/

I actually had to turn the alli express one down during veg they were growing too fast!
