Tent Questions

Hi all...I didn't see anything specific on tent set ups and so forth...

So I'm going to sticky this thread for any questions and answers that you members with tents, can answer...

Also, if you have any pics of how your tent is set up, please post them...Pictures say a 1000 words...:thumbs:
Basically, as far as pics go, mostly looking for how yours is set up...Not so much about the plants...

Thanks for your cooperation and I hope this thread gets the attention that new tent buyers, like myself, can gain some info...

Ok, the first question for this thread is this:

Inside the tent, do I want my intake to be less than my exhaust?

For intake I'm using an inline duct booster 6'' with 160 cfm
My exhaust is through my hood which is an air cooled hood. My inline fan here is a 6'' 400 cfm pulling air through a Goblin Charcoal filter:

Tent size is 5' x 5' x 6.5'

This is my little secret jardin dr60 2x2x5 foot..iv got it squeezed in my kitchens pantry and iv got my 4 inch fan/filter in there,i dont have an intake fan,i open the vents a little as the pantry is vented with good air circ plus i dont wanna draw to much cool air or my temps drop to much.also got my blackstar LED and in one corner I have a 2ft t5 tube providing a little extra light and heat for the girls View attachment 60445 it's a tight little space but ideal for my small scale grows

"Inside the tent, do I want my intake to be less than my exhaust?"

I always go with less intake and more exhast . The idea being to create negative pressure to draw cool air in . most of the time I simply do passive intake .

Think about it like this .By sucking the air out , you will be bringing frsh cool air in . If you try to push the air in , it will come up aginst pressure and you won't get the air exchange you need/want.

Yeah KS, I've been wanting a tent from day 1...Since this is my first tent set up, I kinda thought this would be a good thread for us "tent beginners" to learn from...

Tents are awesome. Currently have 3. 4x4x4 6.3x6.3x6.3 and 4x8x6.5. Got them all off ebay and they work great. Especially the ones with zippers on both front and back. makes watering a lot easier. Also if you're running co2 tank and regulator it saves a lot of co2
