Hey man I saw a post you made about a grow using a dual spectrum lotus. Was that the only light you had in your setup? If so, how did the grow end up (quality and yield) I'm thinking of replacing my 450w Meizhi LED for my one plant setup but would like your opinion on that investment. Thanks man
oh wait never mind I see. So you have one end of your cool tube open, which sucks in air, then it is pulled through you filter and fan which are outside of the tent? That's a pretty good idea. Does any heat escape the open end of your tube though? Also, are you using a passive or active intake...
I'm not able to take pictures right now as I am out of town but I know I have two 4 inch vents in the same location as yours. However, I am going with a passive intake (with only a budget for one 6 inch inline fan) so I need one end of my cool tube to be connect to my carbon filter via ducting...
Alright that's my plan then
Carbon filter > cool tube > 6 inch inline > exhaust
I also decided on a 400 watt dimmable ballast and keeping it at 50% along with keeping my fan running at medium speed
I plan on keeping the light at 50% so I have more vertical space without burning up my soon to...
How much space would you say I need between the end of the cool tube and the tent for ducting? I don't want the duct to be smashed and restrict air flow.
I just feel this would be better as most cool tubes are 24 inches and that's the width of my tent. I found a package and for that reflector and a 400 watt dimmable ballast for $60
Hey guys,
I have a very quick question regarding a diy cool tube. If I purchase a wing reflector, am I able to simply mount a glass/plastic tube on it that I can connecet a duct to? I'm talking about the basic reflectors with nothing but a socket. I feel like it would be cheaper than buying a...
What do you think my yield would be in a tent that size with a dimmable 600w? I'm growing a feminized northern lights from Nirvana and plan on building a scrog screen and vegging until the screen is filled. Also plan on lollipopping as soon as I switch to flowering. Also, I really don't want to...
Title pretty much says it all. Will a 400w MH/HPS light be too much for my 24"x24"x48" Grow tent? I was looking into some kits on eBay and found some with a cool tube that fit my budget.
My set up would be as follows:
Carbon filter > cool tube > 6" inline fan
Passive intake
Let me know...
Alright that's what I'm going to do. A few grows in my small box as I slowly accuire some top of the line equipment for my tent along with gaining experience. He last thing I would want to do is put all this money into a tent only to have a failed grow op and be down a lot of money. Everyone...
Haha I'm so torn between growing in this box I made and a tent. It probably shouldn't be this hard. It's just something about the cab that's is wanting me to use it (maybe because I made it myself) however the idea of a much bigger yield is making me want to go for the tent
