What size tent are U using ? What's amount of reflective material U got on there? Make sure the tent doesn't radiate toxic chemicals when under heat like some of the cheap ones out there do..best one U can get is gorilla but secret jarden is good but make sure you get the darkroom series

 

[ganjagrower94]

its only a 60x60x140 and it says 95% ultra reflective silver mylar 600DX600D AND SAYS 100% PVC FREE

iv ordered a http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/4-In-Line-Fan-Carbon-Filter-Duct-Kit-Hydroponic-Grow-Room-Tent-Ventilation-/120802491988?pt=UK_Baby_Baby_Feeding_Bottle_Warmers_Coolers_LE&hash=item1c2063be54

ive got a cpl of they tt fans they are fine for intake but when u connect the carbon filter and ducting they lose all power, honestly m8 id cancel that order and get another fan you'll thank me and save a bit of cash in the long run, best fan i bought was just 2 weeks ago £45 on ebay with free p&p, this is it here need a £6 speed controller with it to keep noise down but its as good as a rvk which is bout dbl the price

however i also use the buddy filters and can say they are pretty decent not jut as good as the rhinos but not far away

thats a lot of shite, ive never had a problem with any of my tents and never had a branded one in my life, dearest tent i bought is my flower tent which is 1.6m x 1.4m and was only £55. just read the description and buy from a reputable seller and you'll be fine

like i said depends where u buy from

 

[ganjagrower94]

okay sweet ill do that then,do carbon filters remove all the odor or just most of it,when i spoke to the bloke on the phone he said u can put a ona block in the filter have u tried anything like this

 

[R3l@X]

That's true but that applies to everything U buy online... but alot of the cheap tents have PVC floors which it toxic to the plants n those are the 2 brands I know which are clear(im sure there is more)

i use ona blocks yes they make a huge difference late on in flowering when the smell is at its worst, the filters do remove the majority of the odour tho as long as ur fan is powerful enuf and u have negative air pressure in ur tent

 

[ganjagrower94]

okay thanks,i did check the zips and stuff all look fine,maybe a silly question but what is the point of the net holes on the sides what can be unzipped surely these will cause a big loss of light if left open

they are viewing panels, but i never use them mine are taped up with aluminium tape to stop any light leaks

heres a link for the same type of fan i was talking about http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/390686002408?ru=http://www.ebay.co.uk/sch/i.html?_sacat=0&_from=R40&_nkw=390686002408&_rdc=1

the man talks sense i purchased a 120 ds today..........so small and sooo thin, compaired to my 2x2x2 hydrogarden....i could wrap myself up in my hydrogarden and take multiple ak47 rounds to the chest with no ill effects......

after seeing how thin a ds is i wish id have gone with kitbag

the viewing pannels are there so that you dont have to disturb the environment to see ya plants, every time you open tent door, the enviro inside changes...and we want constant, constant constant....no variables no change, just pure predictability!

yeah but just tape the fuckers up and check the plants when the tents open for a feed

 

[R3l@X]

Lol @ tape the fuckers up

and also lemon jizz that may be true in a hydro gro im not sure never donne it myself but in soil its similar to growing outdoors and outside the environment changes all the time but plants flourish so i doubt opening a tent once a day for a quick glance is gonna make much difference, i check mine a few times a day cause i like to observe and monitor any small changes, and ive never had a problem with opening the tent, and a lot of loft/cab growers dont have a constant enviro but they grow just fine as well

 

[ganjagrower94]

ahh iv just remembered has anyone used bio bizz all mix? some people say it will burn seedling and don't want that to happen as just checked on my babies and they have slip and got small shoots so will be in the soil tomorrow

 

[ghb]

i check my grow every 4 days gaz, that is why they are so dank!!!

in all honesty i went tonight and the lights were off, i reset my max min on the thermohygrometer every time i go so i know the lights were at least on on monday night, turns out the extension i had was fooked humidity was 90%, they'll be reet though.
