Cupboard Grow Ventilation Advice

[spartan]

Hey Guys, My cupboard is still in construction but in semi working order. Can you guys give me some ideas on how to go about ventilating my cloning cupboard. I have 3m of 200mm Insulated Ducting Atm. though i prob. only need 1.5m. so i guess i could utilize that. but just some suggestions on how to go about it would be great. I have a 150mm Inline inside of the ducting. Atm it is sitting on the shelf in between the two cupboard. I also have a 120mm Spectrum PC style Fan.

 

my grow space dimensions are below;

 

600dx800Lx700h

600dx1200Lx1700h

Any ideas why they look so different?

Well run your setup and see how the temps are. If it's too hot then you need to get more airflow in and out. If not then you're all set. Ahh they don't look too 'different'. From what I can see both look to be healthy, happy babies.

 

Best of luck

Hi there spartan

 

You want cool air coming in and hot used air going out.

If the intake is on the right side place the outlet on the left hand side so the air is flowing thru the main growing area

Hot air rises so you want to be having our exhaust outlet up high

The coolest air is down low, you need to be drawing cool air from as low as possible

Some ppl say concrete is good as, unless it has direct sunlight, it stays cool.

 

As for the difference in babies, nothing to worry about there they look fine. They are two seperate plants and no 2 are identical in growing, even clones from the same plant don't grow identical. They may grow at the same rate and the leaves look the same but they will still not grow identical.
