yeah dude. i think having a 6'' exhaust and a 6'' intake that will be the ticket.. ive been doing alot of research on air movement that its not even funny......im type guy that looks up everything, a person can never know to much right......
look up thermodynamics i think its got alot to do with Grow rooms to.
my temps last night were 84, so taking off both filters helped out by 6 deg's.

250? miles...bozone?
Hey dude,
Nice looking set up got got there. I wish I could build one like that. Just dont have the room. Those fans make much noise? I seen one guy build a box around them and suspend it to quiet it down some.
Yea, that vacume thing? I had a 10x10 room I was pumping two 180 cfm out and passive in. didnt work, lol you could hear the air sucking under the door.
Sure is fun to fuck with isnt it? I catch a buzz and tweak on my shit all the time.
Yea, I will stick around, I wanna see some buds!

Hey Dude Thanks !!

plus im a little happier, now that i figured that i dont need both 400's going right now,so i turned one off, well fuck me !! now it stays 76 deg's 43% humidity..............so thats like perfect right ?? like i said before been doing some research on pos pressure and negitive pressure, kinda cool how that shit works huh ! seems like you need to equal out the pressure ,you got to give the exhaust something to suck out, so im going with more colder intake. i dont know we will see, just sounds like a logical answer, started to look stuff up and work on some mathmatical problems
on square foot cfm's for that size room and shit like that, and it takes me to needing more intake, so tomorrow when my new S&P 150 gets here i will see...
and what i have for exhaust and intake right now works perfect with one 400, then it needs to be double the intake and exhaust to handle 2 400's . does this theroy sound logicial to anybody ????

Hey man I'm jealous I still live in a non med state but there working on it this year. Not sure on the chlorine but I'm interested too. To be safe you can prob water them in with distilled water and after you filter your other water just let it set in a resivoir for 24 hrs+ and you should be fine.
Distance was something inwondered alot about, a concensus is around 18 in to encourage vertical growth butyou canhave them as close asyou like providedthat they don't show signs of light stress or bleaching just take a temp reading ontop of the plant and if it's in ur desired temp range then rock on.
You will see a noticeable diff in yeild with the 7 gal over the 5. Plus if you are going to train hst or lst you will want theextra root space to support all those colas. Imgoing with 12 gals in my big indoor grow and ittl bworth it.
I yeah are you intaking the same air that's being exhausted into the room/ garage ifso youshoud consider wasting the exhaust outside to keep garage cooler
Keep up the good work

you dont need anything bigger than a 5 gallon. 5 gallon's with 4-6 week veg will always yield around a qp in right conditions, which is what everybody should have inside....... You could put the same plant in a 1 gallon too. do some research and youll see plenty of people growin zips in a dixie cup n shit. unless your in high times mag, 5 gallon is plenty. Now if your the wizard of buzz growin that grape ape, you need the 15 gallon containers to get some pounds out of the room. 7 gallon containers would be good for half pound per plant with ease. got any pics of these big girls indoors? Id like to see what kind of trees your running maint.......
here are great examples of something that requires over 5 gallons of medium: https://www.rollitup.org/grow-journals/161675-pics-new-girls.html
i dont think you need something that big, but maybe

Hey dank, no doubt will you get awsome results outa 5 gals don't get me wrong I'm just advocating that since he can grow legal and is limited to 6 plants only and he has reasonable space that as you pointed out he could possibly double his yield per run and still use the same power. Since he hasn't mentioned what type of methods ( scrog / lst/ hst/ straight up one cola) he could greatly benifit on increasing his pot size to maximize his efforts in whatever he decides.
Check out M blazes grow it's called pics of the new girls... These are the monsters I intend to grow ( outlined in my grow journal) sorry for no link I'm still typin on my iPhone till tomar when I get off work and can finally use a computer to visit rui ( been a month on the iPhone)
My gto you asked a while back if you had enough light for your grow( I think before the temp issues) I would suggest gettin at least one more 400,
Did you ever hook up the cooltubes?
Whatever you decide I'll be watching, keep it up

Hey dank, just realized u had the link to M blazes grow... That's what I'm working on now.. Very similar... And I expect similar results... I'm tired of many harvests and I want to take a vacation and not worry bout the girls . Illbe done in time to go tithe beach at end of summer with enough to last till I start up again next year

yuppers, I just think about how many seeds he popped, compared to how big his room is, and he would fill it up real nice with 5, but a nice 7 would be cool to. I just get water from the culligan machines or whatever tyoe is in front of the store i go to. 5 gallons of water for 1.25. If that filter works though you'd be set. maybe just hook it up n try it. I think the worst that could happen is yellow tips on your leaves. not sure but i bet it is safe

i think hes wondering and so am i if the 1% chlorine is going to kill his benificial bacteria and such...on the lable for mine it says clearly use non chlorinated water...is this an absoloute 0 thing or is close...ie the filter or air-ing the water out and acceptable watering source for use with these products

I don't know for sure but as a biologist, sensitivities vary and it might well be within the limit of exposure for certain types. I had understood that leaving tapwater open to the air, the chlorine will be released as a gas over a period of 12-24hrs. In my case, I always leave my water stand in open containers, to get to room temp and release the chlorine - if so. Never actually done anything fancy to determine if I was achieving my desired result. But then I don't even pH my water or nuthin either../...anyhow just a plain response and not with very many certainties....?
