Oh by the way country boy it is a grow tent thanks for your help

Thanks man I appreciate that

Hey country boy I have my light 16 in I love my plants which I have a fan going into cool the light and the lights only at 400 watts I had to leave it on 400 what’s cuz they say to lower the light bill low at first so should I raise my lights and put on the 600 w. And then also how long before I start pruning the bottom leaves off when they get a couple feet tall or before I really appreciate all the help you’re giving me man

@Ford12 can you post a pic or two of the plants let me see what your working with bro
And pic of your set up would help as well
Always pull the heat from the top of your tent with a exhaust fan use passive vents on bottom and if need a intake fan to supply cool air to bottom of tent
How old are the girls you don’t want to start pruning to early so let me see you girls lol

@Ford12 looking good
mount the filter at the highest point in your tent that will remove the heat better since heat rises once heat is above intake there will be a heat ceiling created which will keep temps higher over all in tent
Vented hood should help tremendously as well nice job

Can Someone Tell Me Where I Can Find The Bud Of The Month Contest?

A country boy should I get another 6in or a 6in carbon filter for my lights that I’m exhausting or can I just exhaust that heat from the light into the tent and then let it go through my carbon filter or do I have to add another carbon filter on to that
