I had one problem after another with my first grow and i really don't want to have another nightmare like that.
Right now the biggest problem i have is heat in my tent.
I'm starting my first week of flowering in a 4x4 tent with a 600 watt cooltube. For ventilation i'm using 2 160 (250 booster flow) cfm fans one intake blower (outside of the tent attached to the left side of the cool tube with ducting) and one using as an exhaust fan (attached to the right side of the cooltube with ducting going outside the tent. Before i had the exhaust fan outside of the tent hooked up with ducting to the right side i noticed how dumb that was so i attached the fan to the cool tube but i'm only getting a 2 degree difference!
I have 2 oscillation fans circulating air and 1 6" clip fan these fans are barely doing anything to control the temp. I had the light running for an hour and in the middle of the tent it was 93 degrees at the top of the plants probably close to 98 degrees. I can't grow in these circumstances.
I can't afford a portable air conditioner.. the last option i have in my mind is buying a hi velocity exhaust fan but how much would the temperature actually change?
