Question about vent fans...

Have a 6 inch vent on the top of my grow tent and a 4 inch one near the bottom. Will I suffocate my plants if I have a 6 in fan drawing air out and a 4 in one drawing it in? Or will it equalize itself? Thanks.

I thought it would help keep the air fresh inside the tent. But I am just starting out (haven't even started the grow yet). So you are saying I should only have fans drawing air out (and that as many of them as possible is good or I should go with a set amount)? Thanks again.

Exhaust fans are all you'll ever need. Intake fans create bottlenecks. The amount of airflow you'll need is dependent on wattage, grow space, and layout. I suspect the 6" will be fine.

Yeah, it's a small tent with one stealth bubbleponics grow. I would imagine one 6 incher would get the job done. Thanks again for the info. Mods can close this thread if need be.
