Can I use two intake fans one for the carben fliter at the top for pulling air out and another at the bottom for pushing air in they r the same fan ?
I read up alot about this.... I did originally have my fan outside the tent sucking air from the tent then into the carbon filter then into the extractor fan... I also had the extractor fan on... it worked for me... as long as both fans are the same I honestly don't see a problem... the fans can be used in both directions.. habe a look on utube there's loads of info on there...

Also just bought this carbon fliter hope it's not junk too
Wtf just my luck
Simple fix m8. Get yourself some black out cloth n some strong velcro strips. Cover the tent leave the top of your tent job done no light leaks.. Mine did the same wrapped with said cloth n job a good un.. Most of the tents u buy no a days on a budget have the same problem

I found out the hard way about buying cheap... if I was to advise anyone who is setting up a grow tent I would tell them to not spare any expenses and buy quality from the off... like I previously said my stuff was shit.. the tent is like a teabag and it's so difficult to control the RH/heat etc.. if you have the £££ use them wisely lol.. ✌✌✌ I've had to spend an extra £250 on lights to see these ladies through... that's on top of the £250 I actually paid for the set up... a decent 1 with a reputable name behind it is roughly £550... it should be a no brainer!!
I agree but u do what u can with money u have.. Rh n heat. Can be Fixed. What size fan do u use? Do u have humidity meter.? What are your temps lights on and off.. PH. Level..

I'm still getting my orders in the mail so I don't got a ph reader yet I have three 6' fans inside the tent useing a led 300 temp gets 90 with light on I'll take some pictures of the setup wen lights come on at 12 and update this
 
I'm using a piece of crap meter for temperature still waiting on my digital meter with humidifier meter coming through the mail so I think it's a 90 but when I turn my exhaust fan on that sucks from the top the 10 wall sucking and I was worried about opening the flaps to to me flowering and like getting out or like getting in
