Hey All,
I grow in a smallish tent (3'x3'x5') in my basement that has absolutely no windows. Heat is a constant issue in the summer with my 400w HPS (with air cooled head). Problem is, I have no cool air to supply. So, here's my question:![Confused :confused: :confused:](/styles/smilies/confused.png)
Can I use a small portable air conditioner, put it INSIDE the grow tent, and run the venting hose OUTSIDE of the tent area instead of putting the venting hose outside of a window (which I do not have access to)?
Will this work? I realize that this won't air cool the hood whatsoever but I would imagine that it would significantly cool the area inside the tent which is just as good.
Thanks for the help.![Mr. Green :mrgreen: :mrgreen:](/styles/smilies/icon_mrgreen.gif)
