Hey everyone, first post ever. Just getting back into growing now that I'm off parole and no longer property of the BOP and well let's say I'm starting from scratch, and on literally $100 at a time or so. Money is tight until I get going, but I have enough experience under my belt I've made do, and my garden is growing. Anyways, what I'm here to tell you newer guys (and veterans the same) that should you have issues with let's say connecting your ducting to your reflector or (your cousin rushes like an idiot at EVERYTHING and grabs 4" tubing instead of 6" ) you have to make do with what you have. Just so happens the lid of a larger Daisy sour cream container beautifully snaps right on. I just cut a 4" hole in the middle, threaded the tubing into it, ran the tubing to exhaust out of my tent (48"x48"x80") and snapped it onto my 1000w reflector (only running 1000wMH on 600w Super Lumens and a 600wHPS on the same). I'll post pics when the site allows, I'm hoping I gave a decent enough description, kinda hard to type so much on my phone. Happy growing guys and girls.

Edit : If you have a solution to a ventilation problem please feel free to post it and share knowledge. I believe that's what this website is for it makes me sad when I see people arguing or telling people have they would do something better if it was their grow, that's now what we're here for, knowledge is power, and strength is in numbers.

You can also use PVC plumbing reducers to.
Very good to know, thank you! I believe in the recycled universe and don't believe in growing commercial style in my home. This is my "Sagrada Familia" so to speak. We like to make or recycle everything down to soil and nutes. ️
