Ok so here the pic I took of my set up and girls. I adjusted the lights and fan and added 25w old led but some lights won't work. Anyways I thought F It I'll add it anyways more light (right) ☺

I tried the fan but the probem is with the fan is creating condensation. when I opened the tent is was wet inside. my lights weren't cheap so im not gonna crew them up lol anyways when I stopped the fan and dried the tent no more condensation. what I noticed was the mars hydro fans are spreading wind in the tent I can feel air in there. y room temp is around 23'c t 25'degrees. im looking to buy a heat tube £20 amazon and another 300w florescent bulb to add in the grow tent. would this be ok with the lights in there at the moment?

A fan won't create condensation. but a lack of ventilation will. Do you have an exhaust fan? Sounds to me like condensation is building up do to a lack of air exchange in your tent. You need a fan moving air AND an exhaust fan. If not, you'll have mold problems soon

To be honest with u the fan was causing the condesation. The fans on my Mars hydro is stopping the condesation or maybe the heat of the FCL is helping. But everytime i had the fan runinng thats when the tent got wet. As soon as i dryed and stop the fan condestion has stoped??????? My girls are in the loft. I've got no other option but to have the up there. Gonna buy my heat tube on Tuesday and the get a exhaust fan. Plus adding 1 300w FCL lights as well.

Also I'm thinking of getting some northern lights, purple cheese and the classic amnishia haze. All this strains are Autos. Any here grown any of this strains and what would u recomend for a person like me that's just gettimg into the whole LED & FLC.

I'm thinking of getting

Hi Columbiano

We're all kinda trying to tell you the same thing - you need air exchage in the cab. You'll need an exhaust fan for that - make sure you get one big enough for the job! I'd buy a carbon filter that matches your fan at the same time

The fans in the LED are litterally just keeping the LED cool - and you definately dont want moisture being sucked through there.

The air in your tent needs to be changed about 3 times a minute. The only way to do this is with an exhaust fan.

The plants in the loft are fine for now - but in about 8 weeks they are going to stink. It's the kind of stink that gets everywhere and will leave your loft. For most, this is a massive security risk. Even in legal areas.

If you have no neighbors and are secluded and get no visitors, (and if you can put up with the smell) you'll be okay.

I've got no other option but to have the up there.

I'll be joining you soon! Ho-hum for summers and winters!
