Hello guys,
So i am in the midst of beginning my first grow and wanted to grasp the idea of air intake.
My tent dimensions currently are 120x60x180 centimetres, although I'm thinking of purchasing a slightly bigger one at 120x120x200 to give more room for the fans. I have a 4" inline extractor fan pulling in air from the outside and will be purchasing a 4" or 6" RVK fan with filter to attach to my air cooled reflector which will house a 400W MH & 600W HPS. I was given some advice at my local hydroponic store and was told I should also think about installing another fan pulling the air back out of the tent, which I initially thought would be covered by my RVK, over my bulb and then out through the top. Would adding another extractor fan to suck the air out be highly recommended? or would I be just fine with my RVK to do the job? Also, do you think heat would become a problem in a tent of this size?
Thanks in advance for any advise
