Just as title states I currently have 1 4x4 tent and a 10x4 veg area with 14000 but portable ac in it . I want to add a second 4x4 to flower in .

There will be a 4 ft gap with a window in between the 2 tents blacked out. Has anyone done this willing to help. I'm thinking I need to add a 2nd dehumidifier so each tent can dehumidify at lights out.

I would really like to run 1 at a time so they alternate but can't seem to grasp it.

I know that i kind of want to use the middle as a lung space that the tents can draw cold air from .

If anyone has done this any advice or pictures would help

Can you ditch the portable for a window shaker in that window? Then you put a couple adapters like
from the window shaker to flex duct and into each flower tent. Any leaks would go into veg area. If tents get too cold give that tents adapter a little less vent area. Flowering plants like cold temps though. Especially cold nights.

I was thinking put a y on a.c. but that still leaves 1 tent with no humidifier. I may just run a booster fan for couple hours after lights out. Definately have to figure it out as 2nd tent is on the way. I could always just save the dehumidifier for the last 4 weeks and move it tent to tent .

I just thought it would be sweet to run 2 tents 11:59 min each separately . So it's not like using 5000w and then nada for the next 12 hours.

is it a 2 hose or 1 hose portable? Window shakers are just a whole lot more efficient at cooling and dehumidifying. If the window shaker is leaned back slightly, water can drain out the back and outside. Where does the portable AC condensate go? it gets kicked up onto the condenser coils and gets blown out as steam? Not condusive to low room rh...
