or maybe run the 2 exhaust straight out of the roof?

[SukonmiSkunk]

yep.. just raise that one to the top... also.. if you have the inlet point on the opposite side so the create a turbulance.. that stirs the air up plenty for a box like that.... also.. id be using 250mm fans... 200 wont quite be enough I reckon.. I use 2 x 250mm fans pushing air on both sides of my grow... 2 x 250mm for each 600... go industrial size fan for the exhaust to.as putting duct on a normal fan restricts the flow too much and the fan will NEVER work properly... more restriction... the less air it will suck out...

sweet man

thanks

i just checked out the last page of ya tute

my shade is a bit bigger than yours man

i dont have that clearance you have

i might run the 250mm lenco full time

and have the 200mm 1 chime in for 30 mins on 15 off

ive got 1 x 250mm inline

1 x 150mm inline

both ducted i dont relly need the ducting but hey

should i run the inlines at full time or have em on timers?

thanks for ya help man

if i can loose the oscilatin fan thats mad

run fans ALL the time... the more air movement the better...

 

the shade your using wont matter... the hotter air will still be at the top...

You can always check lighting for your area using the OS Grow Room Calculators too

thanks for ya help man

yeah i did the calcs thanks ozstoner

but i dont know wat the cfm ratin of me fans are

hey bill good to see u took the advice and moved the fan up higher in the grow chamber now with that hole u have blocked up why not remove the cover toss in a small length of ducting in the whole and use that as an inlet? the ducting should minamise any light leaks and u will have great air flow i use the lenco fan for my room if u think its loud it could be mounted in a spot where it creates vibration? there not totally silent but a fuck load quiter than prpperly designed hydroponic fans of the same rating also if u have a spare $30 buy the smaller 900mm chinamans hat its known smaller shades reflect more light and less heat Edited December 3, 2006 by Gazza2001au

thanks gaz

yeah i unfortuately am cashless

thats why im makin it all happen with old bits from around the joint

the back wall of the cab used to be me old roof

i may just get another lenco exhaust Gaz

and do as u said and run it backwards so shes pullin the air in

 

anyway listen guys

air in

[Gazza2001au]

were here to help and be helped thats the great thing about these communitys if your going 12/12 in 10 days i'd suggest u turn off the 600w light turn on a light in the bigger room climb into the grow chamber close the door behind u and work out what parts need to be light proofed as those pictures look like your going to have alot of light leakage problems
