allright niggas...here we go..i have 2 brand new 400w phs systems....with some ak48 seedlings i wanna grow ....i know to proppery cool it,i need to run some ducting.....so i already have it plabbed..i just need u guys info,advice,etc about my system,and 2 see if it wil;l; succefully keep my average size closet at around 80-85..
1.ima make a diy cooltube using pyrex tubes for my 400 w hps bulb,its VERY easy,since all i need is the tube,ill just use my htg supply light socket for the cooltube,instead of building my own.ill use the cooltube hangers to hang the plant.

2.since the cooltube is 3.5,ima need some 4 in ducting from home depot..its around 10$ for a rather large roll...http://www.homedepot.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/ProductDisplay?storeId=10051&langId=-1&catalogId=10053&productId=100396934&N=10000003+90401+500209

ima buy some 6in to 4 adpater for the ducting to fit on the 6in fan....they sell it at home depot..
that it..the fan will be placed so its sucking air out of the actaul cooltube..with no ducting on the other side....i will make the duct run short,so the air doesnt trvale too far
now is it eough..ive heard these fans are quite garbage,since theur just boosters..and cant pefrom well in longer duct runs..is this true??
+rep iz appreciated for this simple cootlube diy!!!
