New room, this sound plausible?

Post by Nom »

So im looking at a new tent for full cyle and this is my plan, the bottom line is does this sound plausible or am i going to run into problems?

I already have the lights and extraction from other tents, i could do a 1.2x1.2 and keep my small tent but I'd rather just have one bigger tent and not multiple little ones and see how it goes.

1.2x2.4 tent 2.2 high
6 inch hyperfan v1 535 m3/h
No intake fan
8x ish 150 pcbs in two lines of four
1x ish 4r xl
Im thinking have 4r xl in the middle and the 150 pcbs on either side

Thoughts?

Sounds good to me Nomoli. My big setup was using similar extraction but with 1200 hps so you should be fine in that front. lighting sounds more han enough to.

I was a bit worried about the lighting not being enough, and there's a bit of confusion over what boards i actually mean, so heres a link.....

This in a line of 4 rather than a square, so in total 8 of these little boards and a 4r xl.

Not 8 of these

I am only worried about that. Given the size of your tent that fan will have to be bursting at full speed all the time and yet might not be enough as it would reduce the airflow once you connect the carbon filter and add the ducting.

Play it safe in a 1.2x1.2 then? I'm pretty much out of cash with xmas looming and the prospect of buying a bigger ec hyperfan is making im sphincter react.

This is one of the things which worries me to be honest, if the fans running full melt all the time it wont leave me anywhere to go with it.
My other option is that I go with a 1.5x1.5 tent which would be a kind of halfway house between a 1.2x1.2 and a 1.2x2.4.

1.5 x 1.5 will do mate. You might be ok in 1.2 x 2.4 also but it depends on the strain. If you get really stinky one, your fan and filter might not deal with the smell which is never good thing.

Here's a thought. I've got a spare ruk fan and filter, 6 inch. Is there anything wrong with running two fan and filters in a tent if they have a different output?
i.e. Ruk fan 470m3/h
Hyperfan 535 m3/h

no nothing wrong with that at all. if you are thinking about a 1.5 square tent, remember its a pain in the arse to get the plants in th middle when in full bloom, while the 2.4 by 1.2 id much easier. the 2.4 by 1.2 is also easier to light properly, 1.5s are a ball ache size, to be honest. ive had both and preffer the 2.4 by 1.2s
