I think i am set up pretty good. 5x5 Ac infinity tent and 6 inch fan and carbon filter for exhaust. I know i probably need one for intake also with carbon filter. 640w grow station led light with controller for sun up and sun down. All for my ebb and flow system. I figured 5 plants in there for a 4x4 table. Using 6 inch rockwool. Any advice is welcome. But my question is. Where is a reputable place to buy seeds? I used growers choice and they are jacking me around. I spent $200 with them. I have also been looking at ethos seeds. Please help me. I wanna get to growing. Also some extra thoughts being new. I have grown some bad ass tomatoes. From what i learned so far. I use the same technique to get bud sites to grow. Just right timing. Am i correct on this? I have pics but my signal won't let me attach them.

Neptune was fast and easy if you are in the US.

I'm hoping that is a spare bedroom and you're not gonna be sleeping next to them. Granted they can use the CO2 but...

It is not a spare bedroom. I have heard of people getting fresh air thru their bathroom fart fans. Sucking the air in.

I’ve found with similar space and plant count that sometimes a 6inch rockwool is insufficient strain dependent. I often put a 3inch ontop of a 6inch. Or sometimes a 6 inch ontop of a slab

So how do i get fresh air? Carbon filter on an intake fan?
You get fresh air from a fan that sucks air from outside into your grow room. Or i assume you have extraction??? When you extract air from the grow it creates negative pressure so air gets sucked back into the grow from any open source, run a duct from outside into the grow and as u exhaust you suck in fresh air.

I would love to run my duct work to the window. But i live in a condo. Like an apartment. Its legal for me to grow. But people will ask questions. Can i run my bathroom exaust fan backwards and suck clean air in from outside?

Yes. This is what it looks like. I would like to put one outside my tent also. And an oscillating fan inside.
Right sweet, so you see the ventilation ports on the tent? The spare ones ? Run a duct from one of those into a room in the house with access to fresh air. The negative pressure caused by your exhaust fan will draw in fresh air through this new duct

Yeah. I get that. I guess i was just trying to avoid having to leave a window or something open. Its hot in Missouri in the summer. Im going to leave my patio door cracked and get another carbon filter and intake fan from ac infinity and mount it on a piece of wood and set it next to the door and suck in the fresh air. Can i shut the door for their sleep period to give them a cool of time of 15 degrees or so? And some co2? Or should i just leve the door open always?
