Keeping Cool

Not keeping my girls as cool as I would like.

So I was talking it over with my Son.

I told him my plan. I said turn my Fan around so it is blowing room temperature air into the Tent. Take the Filter off so it will blow easier. Run a Hose between the two Tents. Have Fan with Filter pulling out.

My Son says just open the Tent. He has no Fans. He said only time he had trouble is when we took a trip and his Tent was closed up. He said keeps the humidity high and he had Bud Rot.

I'm thinking why have a Tent?

I do have to agree with him on one thing if you run both Tents together you will have Bugs in both Tents.

Others might disagree but tents are for drying in and rooms are where you grow weed in my opinion i hate not having enough space to work with obviously towards the end space is tighter regardless but in tents its ridiculous unless you growing in a tent the size of the room in which case its kinda almost self defeating plus with rooms you can set up better vents that are hard fixed and more efficient rather than using more flexy crap or plastic stuff needs must with that stuff imo

So what the difference between your sons grow and yours?

Location?
Lighting wattage?
Equipment?


No offence to your son but it's literally pure luck he doesn't lose every crop and can produce anything of value.

At the end of the day 82f is great.
But if you want less of a temp rise you need more air exchange or less wattage.
Unless your fan just isn't any good at doing the advertised job. Some fans on the market will not do what they are sold to do.
Or maybe you just aren't measuring the air temp correctly?

I'd have to fill my 9L humidifier twice a day to keep an entire room at 60 percent humidity at 82 degrees. It's nice to only fill every third day or so in the tent. And I don't want my entire room 82 degrees. And I don't want a whole separate room for mother's and clones. Come to the tent side lol.
