Hey Guys

I need some help. After doing lots of research and planning...ive purchased all of my equipment. Now that I have everything...I need helping with the best possible setup for Ventilation, Odour Control, max exhuast potential, and cooling.

Specs:

-Grow Tent 54" x 54" x 72"

-1000W HPS Light Kit w/ Air Cooled Cylinder
-1000W Galaxy Digital Ballast
-1000W HPS Ushio Lamp
-Air Cool Cylinder Reflector 24"

-Fan-Filter Combo 6" 400CFM
-PROfilter Slim Carbon Filter 70S (6" 400 CFM)
-Inline Fan (Active Air) 6" 400CFM
-Flexible Ducting 6" 25ft

- Rainforest 66 Aeroponic/Hydro system (6 medium sized plants)
- assorted seeds from attitude

My biggest question is how I should setup my lighting/venting systems. I've searched through the forums and seen pictures...but everyone seems to be doing something different. Do I push air through the filter THEN the cooltube and out into my room? Do I suck air into the filter and through the tube?

Any advice would be greatly appreciated guys.

Thanks! :)

You can have it both ways, if you have the filter outside of the tent you get more room inside and vice-verse, though you don't use the room in the top part of your tent anyways so I would put it there.

agreed put it in the tent... filters work much better when u suck through them instead of bowing out

Okay -thanks for the responses so far guys.

let me get this straight...

DO: FILTER ---> Fan ---> Ducting ---> Cool Tube ---Ducting---> (outside of tent)

and NOT: Fan --> Filter ---> Ducting ---> Cooltube ---> ducting ---> outside tent
