Club 600

[DST]

Mmmmmnn, that's quite hot, not drastic, but hottish, I would recommend at least a 5inch or 125mm inline fan to extract with a 600.

Simple equation:
Your total light wattage divided by 2, then + 20%, will give you the Metre cubed rating you need for your space. (around 360-400 is ideal). 125L1 ruck would do the job for example.

Welcome dieselweed.

I thought that Bio Nova US dealer post would tickle ya Doobie, hehe.

I even popped over to their website before my original post to see if they had a search feature so people could find distributors & retailers, but didn't find any.
Or I was stoned and I missed it.

i have a 6" inline fan pulling air out. I'm running over 1400 watts in an area 5ftx5ftx7ft, so ~175 cubic feet.

Maybe i should build a bigger grow tent...and buy a bag of seed I didn't anticipate on using so much light, but i got a great deal on them.

 

[rasclot]

I so need to get one like that, my fan can suck all it wants and not cave my shit in. I added a single bar about halfway up but it's taped and ghetto and not that nice!

I got it from 3ch in the uk I don't use the shelf in the to section but it might come in handy 1 day


The Grow Cube 120 Tent is the ideal tent to ensure maximum lumens get to your plants with a 600w Grow Light System, and that there is plenty of available space for both your plants and the ventilation equipment required to maintain the environment in your Hydroponic Grow Tent at desired temperatures. We anticipate the Grow Cube Tent 120 will be the flagship of this exciting and innovative new range of Grow Tents. The 1.2M x 1.2M area is perfect fit for a 600w Grow Light system, meaning your plants can benefit from maximum lumens in the space available.
Grow Cube tents have unbeatable inbuilt strength due to their modular construction. The shorter tent poles ensure this baby can take plenty of weight! And the heavy duty material used for the shell fabric of the Grow Cube can be trusted to keep the light in when the Grow Lights are on, and to keep light from encroaching into the tent when they are off.
This Grow Tent has added an optional compartment in which you can keep your electrical appliances safe and sound, as well as tidy and easily accessible through a purpose-built entry flap.
From selling Grow Tents for a number of years we now firmly believe that the Grow Cube Tents are the best on the market. This new innovative design is truly destined to become the market leader. To ensure you have the opportunity to benefit from this top quality product, 3CH can offer it at a special Introductory Price, so the question of value-for-money needn’t enter your mind.
In Summary, We are really pleased to be chosen as the 1st UK Retailer to be able to stock the Grow Cube as we feel it's the Best Grow Tent, at presently the Best Price, and all serious growers will want one as the basis of their Hydroponic Grow Room.
Pop into your nearest 3CH shop to see for yourself!

I use an 8 inch fan for 2 600's. I think you will struggle with a 6 inch with that wattage. I use 1200 in a 1.2m squared vertical set up. I don't think tent size is the issue, I think air movement is.

Looks more like an online set up. You can order from them so I imagine they will be reasonable shipping in the US. If you are into buying online that is.....

I think i will reroute my 6" fan to vent the air cooled hoods, then re-purpose the squirrel cage and have it pull fresh air in. If i can lose 5-10 degrees, that would be phenomenal.

Even a few degrees would help, reducing by 5-10 you would have spot on temps.

Heh, heh.
Just a 6" fan annecdote:

Went to remove the glass pane of my hood (24"x24") to clean the inside of the glass and was using one hand to hold up to the glass from the edge as I removed the latches from the hood.
It was then that I noticed that it was still being held tightly in place by the vacuum of the fan (435cfm 6" fan running through 20ft of stovepipe instead of flex-hose).
And I mean tight.
Had to shut off the fan to get the glass to drop free without damage.
Pretty cool.
Carry on.

*edit:
OoopS!
That should read - 12-ft of flex hose and 12-ft of stove pipe

Haha thanks dst for the us distributor and the info always a pleasure getting info from you lol, now to learn the schedule! See the difference and drool while they prosper! Welcome diesel you'll love it here in the club of 600's!

 

[bassman999]

I use an 8" fan on a single 600, and sometimes I run a 1000 instead in there if it gets packed in my 4x4 tent
Id rather have too much than not enough.

I dont know if there is any truth to plants swelling from a dark period at harvest time, but I dont know where I am gonna dry my buds, and they have been waiting to chop for 41 hrs now without light.

Too cold in the garage, and no room any where else.
I guess they will have to hang in the tent, but I really want the next run in there asap...what to do??

Just stepped into the club 600 a week or so ago, upgraded from 300+ watts of CFL to a dimmable 600 ballast with a cool tube!!

ready to see how this turns out.

congratulations.

No offense to anyone, but cfl/flurescent bud is not even close when it comes to the quality of HID weed.

I gave away some blueberry and ISS that was grown under T5s. It is just not as good. It is all spiky and has a weird texture.
My T5 is sitting in the shed gathering dust.

My T5 has a bad ballast, but I would use it for veg/moms and also side lighting when flowering.
Never tried flowering under one, but dont expect it would made hardball buds like my 600 or 1000 either, unless you had then on all sides and top...then probably close.
