I take it your on a passive intake then... That large of a room you need something larger than 450cfm to cool two 1k lights sucking through a carbon filter as well. How big of a filter are you using? I would really consider a much higher cfm fan.

Build it. A hundred bucks will get you enough 4 x 8 sheets of ply and some 2x4's. seal with expanding foam and be done. Won't rip, hinged door that can be locked.

Dude... go to lowes and pick up some 5 gallon buckets. They are 2 bucks each. Drill holes in bottom... boom.. drainage. But seriously... I hate this response as much as the next guy, but it is obvious and relevant. Instead of coming on here and posting a thread right away, use the SEARCH...

if you dont mind me asking, why are you looking to replace the mini split? i have a 10 x 10 room split down the middle and halved for veg and flower sides. i run a portable on either side and DAMMMNNN let me tell you the electric bill reflected. had to turn those babys off and say if it gets too...

After mods removed my last post (sorry for breaking the rules gents), I have had to figure a more PC way to word things. So ill attempt this way. Hello sd growing community, I know many of you may be seasoned growers, but there are also new guys to all this right here in our own backyard. I...

Most basic answer I can give as you would have to design the overall setup and mounts... consider running cold water through a vehicle radiator type object with a fan blowing through the coils instead of sucking. That would cool down some air but depending on your environment and temps without...

The claims that it will be overly hot are only partially true. I did have a heat issue when I first begun, but insulation on the walls and ceiling fixed that. Its over 100a outside and my room peaks at 78 degrees mid day with all equip on and a portable a/c. Its completely possible, but if in a...

OP, as for your question of will it work, i am doing exactly what you are describing and i can tell you what i have experienced and you can pull what useful bits of info you can out of my experiences. it sounds to me like your roughly close to the same area as I, as your temperatures during...

depends where you are... certain states require a warrant before they can even use FLIR. so... anything found with FLIR without a warrant, inadmissible in court. i just hate when people automatically drop the same old mythical answer about FLIR and growing. yes.. it can be seen and yes it is...

i too will apologize as i see this has been inactive for months... but i have experience in actually growing a round with nothing but car hid headlight lamps. i was interested in if it could be done and it was extremely cost effective for me at the time. two 500w computer power supplies handled...

Gasoline first... shake... then rubbing alcohol to cut all leftover gas... shake.... water rinse... looks brand new.

dang! im going to look at that baby tomorrow. the one im using is LOUD and builds quite a bit of heat up. will that yellow one run with a speed controller or is it a brushless? and when you say its quiet, how quiet are we talking here? i dont have to be too noise conscience, but if i can be...

i run a 10x10x10 grow... split in half for veg and flower sections. this little guy has been a good buddy to me. cheapest 1000 cfm exhaust fan i have found. i run it on a speed controller about 50% power and it cools 2 1000 watt sealed lights no issue. cant beat it for 80 bucks...

im assuming you need to keep the noise level down a bit... if you can have a bit of fan noise, i would suggest looking into blower fan assemblies. i know it isnt common around here and there are haters that say you should only use XXX shit because its "proven" or "the old way". i found a fan...

All above comments are 120% accurate. 100amps in your basement is alot. My grow consists of the same exact split I explained you need with a 60 amp breaker feeding the sub. Im also only running 2k watts in lighting ( just under 12 amps). 2 portable a/c's 2 light movers and a 900few cfm exhaust...

no problem man. feel free to drop me pm's with questions. been a electrician for some time now so always willing to help as best i can.

For the size of that room I would say upgrade the main panel in the house. You can then have a sub panel dropped into the basement from a 100amp breaker in the main box (100amps should be sufficient. You can bump it up if need be). Once you have that sub panel in, you have the ability to drop...

If its a 230-240v fan, then it needs to be wired into a 240 plug. 240 is two hot lines from your breaker box without a neutral line. The white and black wires will need to both be hot and the green grounded as apposed to the black hot, white neutral, and green grounded. If out don't get it...

Damn. I tried those first and they didn't work either. Ill re-do it shortly

Well I started off like most of us with a small little room and one or two ladies. When I had my first room up and running (about the size of a closet) I started running into some pretty big heating issues. I took a bit of time to think how to best cool my room while keeping humidity proper, and...
